Renal papillary necrosis. A urological emergency
Authors: A. A. Hellebusch
Journal: JAMA (1969)

Necrotizing papillitis has been previously described as a fulminating form of acute pyelonephritis often resulting in death. Emergency treatment was given to four consecutive patients. Management consisted of drainage with an indwelling ureteral catheter to relieve obstruction, lavage of the renal pelvis to dissolve debris, administration of appropriate antibiotics, and adequate hydration. With this regimen, renal function was preserved and death from sepsis prevented.

Clinical heterogeneity among patients with Gaucher's disease
Authors: E. Sidransky
Journal: JAMA (1993)

<h3>SELECTED CASES</h3><h3>Case 1</h3> A girl born at term to nonconsanguineous parents by spontaneous vaginal delivery had normal early developmental milestones. She smiled at 9 weeks, cooed at 10½ weeks, and rolled over at 14 weeks. However, she developed constant irritability and, on examination, was noted to have hepatosplenomegaly. A liver biopsy performed at 7 months of age revealed Gaucher's disease. Her clinical course was characterized by progressive spasticity, respiratory difficulties, and feeding problems. Treatment of seizures and apnea required frequent hospitalizations; however, she died of apnea at 11 months of age. <h3>Comment.</h3> —This child demonstrates the clinical course that is typically associated with type 2 (acute neurologic) Gaucher's disease.<sup>1</sup>Usually, these children are clinically normal at birth and achieve early developmental milestones, but during the first year of life, degenerative neurological disease becomes apparent. The classic clinical triad that rapidly develops includes strabismus, trismus, and hyperextension of the

Characterization of the overall survival benefit in ENCORE 301, a randomized, placebo-controlled phase II study of exemestane with and without entinostat in ER+ postmenopausal women with metastatic breast cancer.
Authors: Pamela Klein, William McCulloch, Peter Ordentlich, Scott Cruickshank, Miranda Rees, Denise Aysel Yardley
Journal: Journal of Clinical Oncology (2012)

128 Background: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) prevent the emergence of drug tolerant clones and sensitize cells to a variety of anti-cancer therapies. We previously reported ENCORE 301, a randomized placebo controlled phase II study comparing exemestane with (EE) and without (EP) the HDACi entinostat met its primary endpoint of prolonging progression free survival (PFS) (4.3 months vs 2.3 months) and extending overall survival (OS) benefit (26.9 vs 19.8 months). In order to characterize and better understand the OS benefit, exploratory analyses were conducted. Methods: Hazard ratios (HR) for treatment were estimated from the Cox proportional hazards model, with EP serving as the reference treatment in the calculations. Inferential comparisons between treatment groups were made using the log-rank test. Results: Analysis of OS across multiple subsets of interest demonstrated a consistent benefit in EE group versus EP. Sensitivity analysis of baseline characteristics potentially impacting OS did not identify any factors that influenced the effect of EE on OS. Examination of treatments received during follow-up after discontinuation of EE and EP demonstrated balance between treatment group for patients receiving chemotherapy (48% EE: 44% EP), hormone therapy (37% EE: 35% EP), bisphosphonates (2% EE; 0% EP), radiation (6% EE; 5%EP), and surgery (0% EE: 2% EP). Compared to EP, OS was longer in EE group for patients whose first subsequent treatment was a hormone therapy (EE median not reached vs EP median 20.5 months; HR 0.65 [95% CI 0.26, 1.58]) or chemotherapy (EE median 26.9 months vs EP median 17.6 months; HR 0.51 [95% CI 0.25, 1.04]). Updated PFS and OS data will also be presented along with correlation analysis of PFS and OS. Conclusions: Analyses of baseline characteristics, subsequent treatment and subsets of prognostic factors in ENCORE 301 did not identify any contributing factors that account for the extended OS benefit in the EE treatment group. Long lasting effects of entinostat on progenitor cells, emergence of drug tolerant cells and or priming to subsequent therapies cannot be ruled out.

Physicians and the organizational evolution of medicine
Authors: R. C. Burchell
Journal: JAMA (1988)

Within medicine there is growing uneasiness and debate about changes in medical care delivery. Much of this concern centers on the evolution of organizations and the role of physicians. The emergence of multi-institutional organizations, the rise of investor-owned health care corporations, and the expansion of group medical practice illustrate the increasing organizational influence in medicine. Added to these trends are new financial incentives confronting both physicians and organizations so that the environment increasingly favors conflict. This article reviews the primary strategies for resolving physician-organization conflicts, including cooperation between physicians and organizations, having physician representatives in governance and management, restructuring incentives, and restructuring organizations. Although these strategies have various merits, we suggest that every physician has a personal responsibility to become more involved in organization and management issues. Physicians can play an important role in guiding the evolution of medicine. (<i>JAMA</i>1988;260:826-831)

Thrombin stimulates proliferation of liver fat-storing cells and expression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1: Potential role in liver injury
Authors: Fabio Marra, Giuseppe Grandaliano, Anthony J. Valente, Hanna E. Abboud
Journal: Hepatology (1995)

Liver fat-storing cells (FSC) proliferate and secrete extracellular matrix in experimental models of liver injury. In this study, we determined if thrombin, a serine protease produced during acute and chronic tissue injury, modulates the functions of FSC. Thrombin stimulated DNA synthesis and proliferation of FSC, as assessed by [ 3 H]-thymidine incorporation assay and measurement of cell number, respectively. Thrombin also increased the secretion of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in a time-and dose-dependent fashion. The effect of thrombin on both DNA synthesis and MCP-1 secretion was neutralized by pretreatment of thrombin with hirudin. The increased MCP-1 secretion was associated with increased steady-state levels of MCP-1 messenger RNA. Pretreatment of FSC with 5 μmol/L retinol for 48 hours inhibited the mitogenic effects of thrombin but not the induction of MCP-1 secretion. FSC express specific transcripts encoding for the human thrombin receptor, as shown by Northern blot analysis of poly (A) + RNA. Proteolytic activation of the thrombin receptor results in the formation of a new N-terminus that functions as a tethered ligand. We studied the effects of a thrombin receptor activating peptide (TRAP) corresponding to the newly formed N-terminus, on FSC. TRAP mimicked the effects of thrombin on [ 3 H]-thymidine incorporation, MCP-1 secretion, and MCP-1 gene expression. This study suggests that thrombin may be involved in modulating FSC proliferation and monocyte chemotaxis during human liver disease, through proteolytic activation of its receptor.

Minibike and motorcycle accidents in adolescents. A new epidemic
Authors: J. M. Speca
Journal: JAMA (1975)

Twenty-one adolescents, ranging in age from 9 to 16 years, sustained accidental injuries while operating a minibike, motorcycle, or go-cart. Their injuries ranged from lacerations and contusions to paraplegia and amputation. This study suggests that this new pattern of injury is reaching epidemic levels in this age group.

Six-year slowing noted in previously growing rate of US blood collections, transfusions
Authors: C. Marwick
Journal: JAMA (1989)

A SLOWING of the previously growing rate of blood collections and transfusions has occurred since 1982, according to a new national survey. This reverses a 30-year trend. In the 10 years from 1971 to 1980 alone, transfusions of blood and blood components doubled. But Douglas M. Surgenor, MD, Center for Blood Research, Boston, Mass, says there is every indication that the present slowdown will continue. <h3>No Serious Shortages So Far</h3> "In all of the sectors we measured, growth has slowed precipitously," Surgenor said at a National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (Bethesda, Md) committee meeting. Despite these changes, Surgenor pointed out that the nation's blood banking system is functioning well and serious shortages of blood nationally so far have been avoided. The survey used data obtained from the three large national organizations that collect blood. These are the American National Red Cross, the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB), and
