Knowledge and attitudes of permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia among health care providers.
Authors: Jenna Rose Stoehr, Cory Kosche, Jennifer N. Choi
Journal: Journal of Clinical Oncology (2019)

e23074 Background: Reports of permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia (PCIA) are increasing in the field of oncodermatology, but there is a dearth of information regarding how it is recognized and managed by health care providers (HCPs) across different medical specialties. Methods: An electronic survey was distributed to HCPs (resident physicians, attending physicians, and nurse practitioners) in the departments of dermatology, oncology, and general internal medicine (GIM) within one Midwestern hospital system. Results: Of the 60 participants (response rate: 12%), there were 19 from dermatology, 18 from oncology, and 23 from GIM. Responses were analyzed with descriptive statistics and chi-square tests. There was a significant difference in the number of subjects that had heard of PCIA prior to starting the survey (Derm: 79%, Onc: 28%, GIM: 26%, p &lt; 0.05). A larger percentage of Dermatology and Oncology HCPs knew the correct definition of the condition (alopecia persisting &gt; 6 months) than GIM (42% and 44% vs. 17%) and had encountered patients with the condition (47% and 44% vs. 22%). More providers in Dermatology and GIM knew how to diagnose PCIA compared to Oncology (84% and 83% vs. 67%). Dermatology HCPs were the only participants who had attempted to treat patients with PCIA. HCPs across the three specialties believed that patients would accept PCIA treatment that was topical, oral, injectable, and required frequent administration or monitoring, but not treatment that was expensive or high risk. A majority of HCPs surveyed (93%) agreed that the diagnosis of PCIA is important. However, there was a significant difference in the confidence of HCPs in diagnosing and managing PCIA. A minority of dermatology HCPs (2/19) specified that they would refer to an alopecia or oncodermatology specialist, while a majority of oncology and GIM HCPs would refer to dermatology. Conclusions: The results of this survey identify significant knowledge gaps about PCIA amongst HCPs. Therefore, education and multidisciplinary engagement should be pursued in order to improve awareness, diagnosis, referral, and management of PCIA in the survivorship care of cancer patients.

We hardly ever go to the postoffice without finding a letter or a circular from some firm who is anxious to instruct us in the practice of medicine. Each letter has advice as to what remedy is best to give in certain maladies, and we are told that these remedies are giving wonderful results and the greatest satisfaction. If all we are told in these circulars and letters is true, the medical schools had just as well close up shop and quit business. I am confident that I have received letters describing the treatment of nearly all, if not quite all, the diseases that the human family is subject to, and these letters tell us how to cure consumption, cancer, and other maladies, that we had been taught were incurable. It may seem that we are ungrateful if we do not appreciate all this kindness, and I must not forget
Allergic Contact Dermatitis Secondary to Topical Nitroglycerin
Authors: Fred D. Frederick
Journal: JAMA (1978)

<h3>To the Editor.—</h3> Physicians have long been looking for a practical, longacting nitrate product for prophylaxis of exertional and nocturnal angina pectoris. Sustained nitrate effects from cutaneously absorbed nitroglycerin have long been known to industry.<sup>1</sup>Topically applied nitroglycerin ointment was introduced in 1955 but never achieved clinical acceptance.<sup>2</sup>In an editorial Vaisrub (236:292, 1976) reviewed the current status and effectiveness of topically applied nitroglycerin and stated, "Barring an unexpected fly, glycerin ointment promises to be a useful addition to the therapeutic unguentarium." This report of allergic contact dermatitis caused by topically applied nitroglycerin ointment may well be a small fly in the ointment. <h3>Report of a Case.—</h3> A 60-year-old man was treated with nitroglycerin (Nitrol) ointment for angina prophylaxis. The patient stated that he was experiencing relief of his exertional angina using 1.27 cm of the ointment applied twice daily to various areas of his trunk. After approximately
Systems analysis and health manpower. Medical manpower--continuing crisis
Authors: M. S. Blumberg
Journal: JAMA (1967)

In health, as in all sectors of the economy, there are never enough resources available to meet all conceivable needs. The allocation of resources to their most productive uses is the chief problem confronting planners and policy-makers. I believe systems, or cost-benefit, analysis to be management's most effective answer to this challenge. "Systems analysis" is the name for studies which describe and evaluate alternative means of achieving a given objective. In such an analysis, the costs and benefits of each alternative are quantified to the greatest possible extent. Even where benefits cannot be measured in terms of dollars, they frequently can be measured in other quantitative terms. Systems analysis has been widely employed as a basis for decision making, primarily in the Defense Department and related private industry, only since 1961, although many of its concepts have been recognized for a century. However, its use is increasing rapidly: In August
Catecholamines
Authors: Richard J. Wurtman
Journal: New England Journal of Medicine (1965)

Fate of Circulating CatecholaminesSmall amounts of catecholamines are released into the circulation continuously; much more material is secreted in spurts, in response to sympathetic nervous impulses, hypoglycemia, stress and other physiologic stimuli. Because of the low concentrations of norepinephrine and epinephrine in the blood, it had been very difficult to study the fate of circulating catecholamines until Axelrod and his collaborators at the National Institute of Mental Health developed the use of isotopically labeled materials for this purpose. The fate of the tiny amounts of catecholamine released tonically into the circulation can now be monitored by use of continuous . . .

1215Aenveloped virus particles.Both HBV DNA and RNA containing particles fractionated similarly by density gradient centrifugation.The formation of these secreted RNA-containing viral particles could be blocked by treatment with core inhibitors, but not with nucleoside analogs.Conclusions: HBV RNA containing enveloped particles were observed in the supernatant of HBV infected cells and in the sera of HBV infected patients.Core inhibitors and nucleoside analogs could block HBV DNA production in HBV infected cells, but only core modulators could block the formation of HBV RNA containing particles.The more complete block of enveloped HBV particle formation (RNA and DNA particles) differentiates HBV core inhibitors from nucleoside analogs, which inhibit formation of only DNA-containing particles.Inhibitory effects on both HBV DNA and RNA particles could contribute to increased efficacy of HBV core inhibitor based treatment of chronic hepatitis B patients alone or in combination with nucleoside analogs.

Defects of the respiratory chain in the normal human liver and in cirrhosis during aging
Authors: J Muller-Hocker
Journal: Hepatology (1997)

Defects of the respiratory chain are a typical feature of mitochondrial diseases and occur also during normal aging where they have been described in postmitotic tissues. The present study addresses the question of defect expression in the normal and cirrhotic liver. Randomly distributed defects of complex III (ubiquinone-cytochrome-c-oxidoreductase) and of complex IV (cytochrome-c-oxidase) of the respiratory chain have been detected with age-related increasing frequency both in normal and cirrhotic livers. No defects were present for complex II (succinate-dehydrogenase) and complex V (adenosine triphosphate-synthase) and in liver cell carcinomas. Sixty-one of 107 normal livers (57%) showed defects of the respiratory chain. The defects occurred in advanced age (over 50 years) in 87%. In contrast 50 of 64 cirrhotic livers (78%) had defects and approximately 60% occurred after age 50. The defects were caused by a loss of enzyme protein involving both nuclearly and mitochondrially coded subunits. Ninety-four percent of the defects (n = 275) involved complex IV selectively. In 4% selective defects of complex III were found and combined defects of both complexes occurred in only 2%. In situ hybridization and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) studies for the detection of the common deletion (4.977 bp) and of various point mutations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) revealed no consistent molecular genetic abnormalities in microdissected respiratory chain defective liver cell areas. Single point mutations at nt 3243 and/or 5692 were found only in 7 of 18 microdissected probes from 6 patients. The results show that defects of the respiratory chain occur already in normal livers most probably during cell aging and at a higher rate in cirrhosis. The random defect pattern favors a stochastic process, e.g., free radical damage. However, the role of mutations of mtDNA remains to be established.

Cardiac catheterization in patients with unstable angina. Recent onset vs crescendo pattern
Authors: G. D. Plotnik
Journal: JAMA (1980)

Among patients with unstable angina pectoris, those with crescendo angina seem to be at high risk for death and myocardial infarction. We reviewed the clinical, arteriographic, and hemodynamic findings in 218 consecutive catheterized patients with unstable angina. Unstable angina was defined as ischemic cardiac pain at rest associated with transient ECG changes but no evidence for acute myocardial infarction. Patients were divided into two groups according to the duration of symptoms: 134 patients with crescendo angina (new, or increasing, rest pain with previous ischemic symptoms present for more than three months) and 84 with recent onset angina (symptoms present for less than three months). Compared with patients with recent onset symptoms, patients with crescendo angina had more extensive coronary disease and lower ejection fractions, which may explain their poor prognosis.

LMWD: Will It Help Prevent Accidental Cancer 'Seeding'?
Journal: JAMA (1966)

Low molecular weight dextran ( LWMD), administered during surgery, may help prevent subsequent distant metastases from accidental "seeding," University of Minnesota Medical School studies indicate. However, the use of both the method and of LMWD itself still are in the experimental stages, said J. Bradley Aust, MD, PhD, professor of surgery and cancer coordinator. No clinical studies have been attempted, although animal work indicates "the theory is valid," he told<i>JAMA</i>Medical News. Certain operative procedures, in carcinoma of the colon for instance, carry the unprovable risk of accidental spreading of malignant cells via the blood stream. Work by other investigators has shown that heparin prevents cells from clumping and adhering to the vascular bed. Increased coagulation times induced by the agent restrict its use, however. The hemodiluting qualities of LMWD attracted the Minnesota investigators. Mice, pretreated with either saline or LMWD, were challenged intravenously with large concentrations of tumor cells.

Risky Business
Authors: David L. Anders
Journal: JAMA (1988)

Dr Wesson was a young physician with superior skills in the first years of a successful private practice. He had a few minutes between cases one morning and made a quick dash home. He died before the second operation. It seems that many physicians fly, drive, drink, smoke, or eat without regard for the known risks that can be associated with each. Why is not well understood. Some have suggested a death wish. Others have called it "playing God." (I don't think God would be flattered to be associated with such a mentality.) This denial of risks and their consequences is viewed as foolishness in others but fortitude in ourselves. How long Dr Wesson had been having symptoms, no one knows. He apparently shared his concerns with no one. Instead, he gambled either by trying to ignore the disease or by treating himself. In either case, he failed. He died
