Formation of Polychlorinated Dibenzofurans and Dioxins during Combustion, Electrical Equipment Fires and PCB Incineration
Authors: Otto Hutzinger, Ghulam Ghaus Choudhry, Brock G. Chittim, Les E. Johnston
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1985)

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) are likely formed by thermal synthesis of a variety of primary precursors. Highest levels of these compounds are expected, however, when the starting material requires only one or two reaction steps for their formation, as is the case with chlorophenols, chlorobenzenes and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Laboratory pyrolyses have indeed shown that PCBs give significant yields of PCDFs, and chlorobenzenes give both PCDFs and PCDDs. In addition, a variety of other chloroaromatic compounds are formed. From these experiments and from accidents involving PCB fires, it is known that PCDFs are the most important toxic compounds associated with PCBs. Most commercial PCBs contain PCDFs in the low ppm range. PCDF concentration does not increase during normal operation in electrical equipment. Accidents (fires and explosions) involving PCBs can give PCDF levels in soot of up to 1000 ppm and higher. Effective thermal destruction of PCB is possible in modern incineration units, provided high temperatures, excess air and sufficient residence times are used. Exact figures for minimum temperature and residence time cannot be given, since feedstock and incinerator construction greatly influence destruction efficiency. Effluents from EPA-licensed incinerators used for PCB destruction contain only very low levels of PCDDs and PCDFs.
Wood fibers from disposable surgical gowns and drapes
Authors: M. J. Dragan
Journal: JAMA (1979)

A NUMBER of substances (talc,<sup>1</sup>lycopodium, rice, cornstarch,<sup>2</sup>and cotton fibers) introduced into the soft tissue of mesothelial cavities evoke serious granulomatous and fibrotic reactions. Coniferous wood fibers originating from disposable surgical gowns and drapes also have been incriminated in this process.<sup>3-5</sup>This report was prompted by a rise in postoperative morbidity during the 18-month use of disposable paper gowns and drapes in the hospital as a substitute for standard cotton ones. Disposable paper gowns, drapes, and towels were used in about 1,000 surgical procedures during an 18-month period in a 300-bed hospital. About six months after introduction of the disposable paper garments, an increased frequency of postoperative complications was observed. The complications included keloids, wound dehiscence, incisional hernias, chronic abscesses in the surgical field, and in two patients recurrent bouts of intestinal obstructions due to peritoneal adhesions (a total of 22 cases).

Effects of Inhaled Acids on Airway Mucus and Its Consequences for Health
Authors: Bo Holma
Journal: Environmental Health Perspectives (1989)

The high molecular fractions, i.e., greater than 100,000 dalton, are found to be most responsible for the H+ ion absorption capacity of the mucus in the respiratory tract. This function serves as a protection against the penetration of the H+ ion to the surrounding tissue. Acidifying mucus with a high concentration of protein, mainly glycoproteins, results in increased viscosity, which affects various lung functions. After acid saturation of the mucus, the H+ ion will react with the epithelial tissue, which results in increased permeability and a variety of effects. Acidic mucus or mucus with a low protein concentration, as in some asthmatics, constitutes a base for risk groups regarding acidic exposures. A rough estimate indicates that persons with normal mucus buffer capacity and protein content can tolerate about 3000 micrograms SO2/m3 or 300 micrograms H2SO4/m3 per 30 min.

Brain indoles in human hepatic encephalopathy
Authors: H Mardini
Journal: Hepatology (1993)

The neurotransmitter serotonin has a profound effect on the control of sleep; thus excess serotonin activity in the brain could be responsible for impaired consciousness in hepatic encephalopathy. Furthermore, an increased brain level of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid has been a consistent finding in various animal models of the condition. In this study, using high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorometric detection, we examined levels of brain serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) and its precursors and metabolites in 16 patients dying with hepatic encephalopathy complicating acute and chronic liver disease and 9 control subjects matched for age, sex, postmortem delay in brain retrieval and length of frozen tissue storage. In patients with chronic liver disease, serotonin level was significantly increased in thalamus (p < 0.02); levels of its metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid were increased in frontal cortex (p < 0.05), globus pallidus (p < 0.05) and putamen (p < 0.01). Levels of the precursor amino acid tryptophan were increased in thalamus (p < 0.01) and globus pallidus (p < 0.01); in both patient groups levels of 5-hydroxytryptophan and the tryptamine metabolite indoleacetic acid were increased in all brain areas studied. 5-Hydroxytryptamine levels were also increased in thalamus, frontal cortex and globus pallidus in the three patients with fulminant liver failure. Our findings are consistent with disordered neurotransmission, especially in the thalamus, an area of particular importance in the regulation of consciousness, alertness and attention in human beings.

Denying the wolf access to sheep's clothing
Authors: T. Heller
Journal: Journal of Clinical Investigation (2003)

Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a cause of acute and chronic liver disease for which no effective therapy is currently available. Previous research has demonstrated that prenylation of the large HDV antigen is essential for viral assembly. A new report describes a novel small animal model for HDV replication and demonstrates that prenylation inhibitors are highly effective at clearing viremia and thus have potential relevance for the treatment of chronic delta hepatitis.
Letter: Enlarging head size and metastatic neuroblastoma
Authors: J. H. Gerson
Journal: JAMA (1975)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> Enlargement of the head and widening of the cranial sutures are recognized complications of metastatic neuroblastoma (227:659, 1974). We recently had a patient with a rapidly increasing head size that was found to be due to metastatic neuroblastoma. <h3>Report of a Case.—</h3> A 2-year-old boy had increasing head size over a six-month period. He had suffered a traumatic hematoma of his forehead seven months earlier and had surgery for a right lateral rectus palsy one month ago. He also had mild lethargy and occasional projectile emesis for one to two weeks before referral. The patient had macrocephaly, with marked prominence of the frontal area, dilated superficial scalp veins, and mild proptosis bilaterally. His head circumference was 54 cm—more than 2 standard deviations above the mean for his age. Funduscopic examination disclosed bilateral venous engorgement. No masses or abnormal lymph nodes were palpable. Findings of a neurologic examination

Erythropoiesis.
Authors: Howard L. Alt
Journal: JAMA (1963)

This volume contains the proceedings of a conference on erythropoietin sponsored by the Hematology Study Section of the US Public Health Service and The University of Chicago. Almost 100 invited participants and discussants from this country and abroad attended the conference held in San Francisco, Jan 21-23, 1962. Each of the ten sections of the book includes several more-or-less original papers followed by a comprehensive general discussion of the subject. Aspects of erythropoietin covered are assay methods and standardization, purification procedures and chemistry, sites of formation, metabolic fate, associated red-cell kinetics, metabolic effects and cellular responses, physiologic relationships, in vitro studies, relation to anemia and polycythemia, and relation to renal abnormalities. Valuable features of the book are the extensive bibliographies following each paper and the complete index. Because of the nature of the subject matter, it seems that "Erythropoietin" (the erythropoietic-stimulating factor) would have been a more appropriate title than
Prophylactic Streptomycin in Thoracoplasty Operations: A Report to the Medical Research Council
Journal: Thorax (1951)

The satisfactory results obtained in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis with streptomycin (Medical Research Council, 1948) led to the hope that the drug would also be a useful accessory in the surgical treatment of this disease, particularly in diminishing the danger and extending the scope of thoracoplasty operations.
Psychiatric status after hysterectomy. A one-year prospective follow-up
Authors: R. L. Martin
Journal: JAMA (1980)

Forty-four randomly selected women who received noncancer hysterectomy were evaluated preoperatively and at one-year follow-up. The findings did not support the hypothesis that the hysterectomy procedure is followed by an excess of psychiatric symptoms. The group, in fact, was less symptomatic at follow-up than presurgically. On the whole, women manifesting psychiatric symptoms during the follow-up had had similar problems before surgery. Many of the symptoms were associated with a presurgical diagnosis of hysteria (Briquet's somatization syndrome), found at a striking excess in the sample (27% vs the 1% or 2% expected). The authors suggest that when hysteria is diagnosed, therapeutic decisions regarding hysterectomy should be based on objective findings rather than on complaints, in that women with hysteria may be placed at risk of hysterectomy on the basis of psychiatric rather than gynecologic illness.

Pathology
Authors: Ashton B. Morrison
Journal: JAMA (1989)

This is a textbook for entry-level students of pathology in the health sciences, particularly medical students. It will be welcomed by such students, for it is well written, excellently illustrated, and clearly designed to encourage learning. Apart from this group of readers, its vital and original approach will appeal to all those of us old hands who want to refresh ourselves in the new look of pathology. Drs Rubin and Farber have assembled an outstanding group of experts who are also seasoned teachers to write, usually vividly, on all the topics mandatory in a student text. They have enlisted the skill of artist Dimitri Karetnikov to produce clear graphic illustrations that enhance the text. In many ways some of the graphics stand on their own and may be said to be enhanced by the text, rather than the other way around. Rubin and Farber have certainly brought color back into
Mycoplasma Infections of Man
Authors: Robert M. Ghanock
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1965)

IT was only recently that a mycoplasma was shown conclusively to produce disease in man. Three years ago the etiologic agent of cold-agglutininpositive atypical pneumonia was identified as a mycoplasma and given the name Mycoplasma pneumoniae.1 2 3 It is surprising that pathogenicity of mycoplasmas for man had not been recognized earlier since organisms of this genus have assumed increasing importance as pathogens of birds and mammals over the past fifty years. In fact the first mycoplasma to be identified was the organism responsible for a serious respiratory disease of cattle — bovine pleuropneumonia. In 1898 Nocard and Roux4 cultivated this . . .
