In Turkey, 19 patients who were admitted with nausea, vomiting, fainting, bradycardia, and hypotension had ingested 30-180 g honey several hours previously as a folk remedy for dyspepsia. Apparently Turkish bees are fond of rhododendrons as a source of nectar. Some species of this plant contain grayanotoxin, the cause of the unpleasant symptoms. The toxin binds to cell membrane sodium channels, provoking prolonged depolarisation with resulting enhanced access for calcium. The authors warn that honey poisoning might occur outside Turkey because of an increase in the consumption of imported, unprocessed honey. The diagnosis should be considered in patients with unexplained acute hypotension, bradycardia, or complete atrioventricular block.

Panic Immunization
Authors: G. Bousfield
Journal: BMJ (1961)

<h3>Objectives</h3> Children9s exposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) is causally linked to childhood morbidity and mortality. Over 38% of English children (aged 4–15) whose parents are smokers are exposed to SHS in the home. Little is known about the prevalence of SHS exposure in the homes of young infants (≤3 months). This study aimed to estimate maternal self-reported prevalence of SHS exposure among infants of women who smoked just before or during pregnancy, and identify factors associated with exposure. <h3>Setting</h3> Primary Care, Nottingham, England. <h3>Participants</h3> Current and recent ex-smoking pregnant women (n=850) were recruited in Nottingham, England. Women completed questionnaires at 8–26 weeks gestation and 3 months after childbirth. Data on smoking in the home 3 months after childbirth was available for 471 households. <h3>Primary and secondary outcome measures</h3> Maternal-reported smoking in the home 3 months after childbirth. <h3>Results</h3> The prevalence of smoking in the home 3 months after childbirth was 16.3% (95% CI 13.2% to 19.8%) and after multiple imputation controlling for non-response 18.2% (95% CI 14.0% to 22.5%). 59% of mothers were current smokers; of these, 24% reported that smoking occurred in their home compared to 4.7% of non-smokers. In multivariable logistic regression, mothers smoking ≥11 cigarettes per day were 8.2 times (95% CI 3.4 to 19.6) more likely to report smoking in the home. Younger age, being of non-white ethnicity, increased deprivation and less negative attitudes towards SHS were also associated with smoking in the home. <h3>Conclusions</h3> This survey of smoking in the home 3 months after childbirth found a lower prevalence than has been reported in older children. Interventions to support smoking mothers to quit, or to help them restrict smoking in the home, should target attitudinal change and address inequality relating to social disadvantage, younger age and non-white ethnic groups.

Psychosurgery
Authors: M. Greenblatt, H. C. Solomon
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1953)

IN his presidential address before the American Neurological Association in 1941, Solomon1 stated that the brilliant contributions to neurology since the time of Charcot had been based largely upon one methodology, which he called the jigsaw-puzzle technic. This depended upon observation of separate signs and symptoms, resulting from defects in the central nervous system, arranged in proper position until a complete picture emerged:If, however, we review the contributions thus made possible, it is seen that they deal very largely with the sensorimotor system. ... The higher integrative functions of the brain ... have been avoided ... as not susceptible . . .

PARTIAL GASTRECTOMY
Authors: J. SHELTON HORSLEY
Journal: JAMA (1927)

Therapeutic measures for disorders of any organ of the human body should be based on a knowledge of the physiologic functions of that organ. It is undoubtedly true that there are valuable empiric remedies, but usually further observation has shown that they were originally fortunate guesses and happened to fit in with the correction of a disordered function not understood at that time. A comprehension of disordered function naturally presupposes a knowledge of normal function. <h3>PHYSIOLOGIC CONSIDERATIONS</h3> In the gastro-intestinal tract there are three vital and more or less distinct functions. One is the function of digesting or preparing the food, another is absorption, and the third is the motor function. Grave and continued interference with any one of these functions will result fatally. To some extent the motor function overlaps the other two, because by mixing and churning the food both digestion and absorption are promoted. In the stomach
Prothèseses oesophagiennes pour perforations et fistules bénignes: critères prédictifs cliniques de succès.
Journal: Endoscopy (2018)

Le traitement des fistules œsophagiennes post opératoires peut être réalisé par la pose d’un stent oesophagien expansif par voie endoscopique, après drainage adéquat des collections éventuelles. Cependant, le taux de succès varie de 44 à 94 % selon les séries. Ce travail multicentrique des Pays-Bas avait pour but d’évaluer la performance d’un algorithme décisionnel clinique pour prédire les chances de succès du stenting dans ces indications.

Coronary heart disease in the Western collaborative group study. A follow-up experience of two years
Authors: R. H. Rosenman
Journal: JAMA (1966)

A prospective study on coronary heart disease (CHD) was initiated in 1960 among 3,524 subjects at risk for its subsequent occurrence. The findings of the first two years of follow-up are presented, during which (mean 2 1/2 years of risk exposure) 70 subjects incurred the advent of manifest CHD. These findings indicate that the presence of (1) abnormalities in lipoprotein pattern, (2) hypertension, or (3) exhibition of a specific overt behavior pattern (type A) each possessed significant prognostic import. The exhibition of the behavior pattern furnished the most important single prognostic entity. Furthermore, the enhanced prognostic risk associated with hypertension or with an abnormal lipoprotein pattern became significant only when either or both of these findings occurred in the subject with type A behavior pattern.
Effect of race on access to recombinant human erythropoietin in long-term hemodialysis patients
Authors: K. R. Petronis
Journal: JAMA (1994)

<h3>Objective.</h3> —To quantify access to recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO) among patients with dialysis-dependent end-stage renal disease (ESRD). <h3>Design.</h3> —National random sample of hemodialysis patients from a random sample of dialysis units, using data abstracted from patients' medical records. <h3>Setting.</h3> —All US hemodialysis units. <h3>Participants.</h3> —A total of 4024 Medicare-entitled in-center hemodialysis patients. <h3>Main Outcome Measures.</h3> —The relative odds that black patients received EPO (compared with white patients). <h3>Results.</h3> —There was no evidence in this national study that black hemodialysis patients were more or less likely to receive EPO than white patients (<i>P</i>=.74) <h3>Conclusions.</h3> —Three years after Food and Drug Administration approval and Medicare coverage of EPO, there was no evidence of racial disparity in access to EPO among Medicare patients with ESRD who were receiving long-term hemodialysis. However, there was evidence of greater need for EPO among black patients. (<i>JAMA</i>. 1994;271:1760-1763)

Intracerebral hemorrhage associated with brain abscess. A complication of inappropriate anticoagulation
Authors: M. Abbott
Journal: JAMA (1969)

An accurate diagnosis of the source of cerebral symptoms is necessary before instituting anticoagulation therapy for presumed cerebrovascular disease. In two cases the misidentification of the symptoms of brain abscesses as those of cerebrovascular disease led to the administration of anticoagulants and resulted in secondary, fatal intracerebral hemorrhage. It is necessary to differentiate factors involved in diagnosis and to be aware of the risks of anticoagulation therapy as well as the difficulty in clinical evaluation of a persistent bleeding diathesis (following such therapy).
Consumer income and expenditures for health care
Authors: E. M. Craft
Journal: JAMA (1969)

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) illustrates that since 1950, physicians' fees have increased faster than the general price level. (See<i>JAMA</i><b>205</b>:231-234 [July 22] 1968). In recent years these increases have accelerated. Since 1960, physicians' fees have increased at an annual rate approximately twice that of the general price level and per capita private expenditures for physicians' services have increased one and a half times that of consumers' disposable income. Inflation is a contagious phenomenon. As wages and prices increase in one sector of the economy, inflationary pressures are applied to wages and prices in other sectors. Physicians can be expected to react to inflationary forces in the same manner as do other employers. As the wages they pay to employees increase, and as other office expenses rise, they will probably increase their fees. In addition to the above inflationary pressures, prices have also been influenced by a rapid

Renal Artery Repair
Authors: Leonard S. Marks
Journal: JAMA (1976)

THE FIRST successful arterial repair for renovascular hypertension in man was reported inThe Journalby Freeman and associates in 1954.<sup>1</sup>Subsequently, arterial repair (or replacement) has become a widely accepted therapy for this condition. Since many candidates for such an operation are young, it is desirable to know how long the repaired or reconstructed renal artery can provide for adequate blood flow to the kidney. Unfortunately, this kind of information is scarce. The following report demonstrates that a repaired artery can provide adequate flow of blood to the kidney for as long as 20 years. <h3>Report of a Case</h3> A 23-year-old woman came to the emergency room of UCLA Hospital on Oct 4, 1955, for treatment of a bee sting. Her blood pressure was 200/130 mm Hg. A subsequent examination showed stenosis of the right renal artery. Ureteric catheterization studies showed diminished urine flow and decreased phenolsulfonphthalein (PSP)

Solitary primary eosinophilic granuloma of lung
Authors: T. P. Cruthirds
Journal: JAMA (1966)

TWO CASES were reported in 1951 by Farinacci et al<sup>1</sup>in which for the first time there was histologically demonstrated a pulmonary lesion similar to eosinophilic granuloma of bone, and entity delineated in 1940 by Otani and Ehrlich<sup>2</sup>and Lichtenstein and Jaffe<sup>3</sup>; in these two cases no other sites of involvement were apparent. In 1964 Lewis<sup>4</sup>added 11 examples of pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma to 75 previously published examples proved histologically. In seven of Lewis' cases no additional sites of involvement were found, this being true for 60 of the other 75 cases. There would appear to be, therefore, approximately 67 reported instances of eosinophilic granuloma limited to the lungs. The purpose of this report is to present an unusual case of primary pulmonary eosinophilic granuloma, the radiographic appearance simulating a primary neoplasm of the lung. <h3>Report of a Case</h3> A 58-year-old white woman was admitted Jan
