This maturation process is controlled by a hormone known as erythropoietin, the level of which is controlled by the amount of oxygen in the blood. After reaching the bloodstream, red cells usually survive for about 120 days before being destroyed. Astronauts, when they return from space, have been found to be anemic (too few red cells) as a result of red ...

Myocardial rupture. Major left ventricular infarct rupture treated by infarctectomy
Authors: E. Anagnostopoulos
Journal: JAMA (1977)

A myocardial rupture that occurred during anesthesia induction for infarctectomy was successfully repaired, and the patient is well and free of symptoms 10 1/2 months later. (<i>JAMA</i>238:2715-2716, 1977)
Diagnosis of myocardial infarction by emergency department physicians
Authors: L. M. Checchio
Journal: JAMA (1993)

<h3>To the Editor.</h3> —In their article on thrombolytic therapy, Doorey et al<sup>1</sup>state that the accuracy of electrocardiographic (ECG) diagnosis has been improved with the official electrocardiographer interpretation compared with that by emergency department physicians (EDPs). They suggest that ECGs be faxed to electrocardiographers for accurate readings in order to increase the number of eligible patients for thrombolytic therapy in the setting of possible acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, the studies cited do not support such statements. In the study by Lee et al,<sup>2</sup>readings by the EDPs were compared with those of electrocardiographers. These were not prospective blinded interpretations. Electrocardiographers had both subsequent clinical course information and evolving ECGs at their disposal. Their readings were more accurate as would be expected with the 20/20 vision of hindsight. The study in no way supports the notion that the accuracy of ECG readings was improved in real time. The
The Role of Hypoxia in Vascular Injury and Repair
Authors: Tony E. Walshe, Patricia Ann D'Amore
Journal: Annual Review of Pathology Mechanisms of Disease (2007)

Although the terms ischemia and hypoxia are often used interchangeably, they represent distinct processes that result in different modulatory effects at the cellular level. Hypoxia is a reduction in oxygen delivery below tissue demand, whereas ischemia is a lack of perfusion, characterized not only by hypoxia but also by insufficient nutrient supply. Hypoxia can be either acute or chronic, and both are centrally regulated by hypoxia-inducible factor, a transcription factor that governs the expression of key response genes such as vascular endothelial growth factor and erythropoietin. Whereas severe chronic hypoxia can cause cell death, less-severe hypoxia can protect against subsequent damage, a phenomenon known as hypoxic conditioning. Several important processes are characterized by hypoxia, including ischemia-reperfusion, tumor growth and progression, inflammation, myocardial ischemia, and a number of ocular pathologies.

Vaccination and disease prevention for adults
Authors: R. A. Goodman
Journal: JAMA (1982)

BECAUSE vaccination of children is now considered to be routine in the United States, it is taken for granted that adults are immunized. A recent review of the role of the periodic health examination depicted some of the uncertainties concerning routine immunization practices for adults.<sup>1</sup>Many "childhood" diseases are no longer diseases of childhood because of the widespread immunization of children in the United States. In recent years, several of the vaccine-preventable diseases have become diseases of adults: during 1980, for example, 91.6% of tetanus cases and more than one third of rubella cases occurred in persons older than 15 years.<sup>2</sup>The purposes of this commentary are to remind physicians and other health care workers who treat adults to incorporate vaccination questions into the medical history and to review immunizing agents that might be indicated for adults. The medical history of a patient is an important tool used
Medicine, metrication, and SI units
Authors: W. R. Barclay
Journal: JAMA (1980)

PUBLIC Law 94-168, the Metric Conversion Act of 1975, specifies that the transition to a metric system of measurements in the United States be a voluntary process rather than a conversion in a fixed period of time by government regulation. To assist voluntary conversion to the metric system of weights and measures, and in particular, to SI units (Système International d'Unités), a private, nonprofit organization, the American National Metric Council, was formed in 1973. It is supported by annual dues from its member organizations and from subscriptions to its journal, the<i>Metric Reporter</i>. The American Medical Association joined the National Metric Council in 1978 and initiated the formation of a biomedical sector committee to develop recommendations on the reporting of measurements in the field of clinical medicine. This section has been redesignated the "Medicine and Health Coordinating Group" and will receive recommendations from all the major specialty societies in medicine

Outbreak of Listeriosis—Northeastern United States, 2002
Journal: JAMA (2002)

A multistate outbreak of Listeria monocytogenes infections with 46 culture-confirmed cases, seven deaths, and three stillbirths or miscarriages in eight states has been linked to eating sliceable turkey deli meat. Cases have been reported from Pennsylvania (14 cases), New York (11 in New York City and seven in other locations), New Jersey (five), Delaware (four), Maryland (two), Connecticut (one), Massachusetts (one), and Michigan (one). Culture dates ranged from July 18 to September 30, 2002; case-finding is ongoing. Outbreak isolates share a relatively uncommon pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) pattern.

Lead-glass cloth shields
Authors: H. Pollak
Journal: JAMA (1968)

<h3>To the Editor:—</h3> One treatment of cancer of the cervix is insertion of radium. Unfortunately, this produces almost always a more or less severe cystitis and proctitis which is most distressing to the patient and can cause prolonged disability. The conventional method of "protecting" the bladder and cervix by insertion of tampons is apparently ineffective to a large degree due to the proximity of these structures to the vagina and cervix uteri. I have long thought it might be possible to produce a better shield for bladder and rectum, and since lead is the outstanding shield metal against radiation, it has occurred to me to use<i>leaded glass-fibers</i>which can be spun into soft pliable cloth and used for vaginal tampons, among other uses. In this connection I wrote to the Corning Glass Works and received a reply assuring me that glass fibers can be made of high-lead glasses which
INTRATHORACIC GOITER
Authors: GEORGE M. CURTIS
Journal: JAMA (1931)

Still too frequently patients are seen with intrathoracic goiter that has escaped recognition even in competent hands. This is due to the fact that a meager symptomatology has not seemed to warrant taking a roentgenogram of the trachea. Since the treatment of intrathoracic goiter is essentially surgical, it is of advantage to practice this early, before the goiter has become too large, adherent or even malignant. As a consequence, I am again calling attention to this disease by presenting a review of ninety-one cases and of the literature, particularly of those papers which have appeared during the past fifteen years. Sixty-six of the cases are from the Surgical Clinic of the University of Berne,<sup>1</sup>the remainder are from the Billings Hospital. That goiter may extend deep into the thoracic cavity was observed as early as 1749 by the Bernese anatomist Albrecht von Haller,<sup>2</sup>in the dissecting rooms at
Adaptations
Authors: Ruth E. Berggren
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (2006)

Interview with Drs. Ruth Berggren and Tyler Curiel on rebuilding the health care system in New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. (08:30)Download Two outpatient clinics serving the disenfranchised have adapted in creative ways to deliver community-based care to New Orleans. Charity Hospital's HIV Outpatient (HOP) Clinic, funded under the Ryan White Comprehensive AIDS Resources Emergency Act, responded to Hurricane Katrina by reconstituting itself with a much smaller staff. In the Algiers neighborhood, a new free clinic dubbed the Common Ground Health Clinic has drawn volunteer medical professionals from around the country. In the early days after Katrina, these clinics coalesced around the neediest populations. Today, they are moving from stopgap measures to sustainable models promoting continuity of care.(Figure)The reconstitution . . .

Proctology
Authors: E. Parker Hayden
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1954)

Benign LymphomaBefore 1939, when Hayes and Burr reported a single case of benign lymphoma of the rectum, they had been able to find previous reports of only 20 cases. In a more recent article they20 mention 206 reported cases, to which they add another 22 cases of their own.These tumors are usually single and occasionally multiple, and are generally within reach of the finger. Felt as freely movable submucous nodules, they vary from several millimeters to several centimeters in diameter and are usually sessile.No symptoms could be ascribed to the lymphomas with certainty. They were accidental findings . . .
