Funding cuts threaten US academic medical research, say deans
Authors: M. McCarthy
Journal: BMJ (2015)

Cuts in federal support and declining clinical revenues are threatening the ability of US academic medical centers to conduct biomedical research, deans from 18 US medical schools have said in a commentary published in Science Translational Medicine .1 Arthur S Levine, of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, was the article’s lead author.

“Persistent constraints on federal funding for biomedical research, including that from the US National Institutes of Health (NIH), threaten to undermine the biomedical research enterprise, and …

Patients' preferences for patient centred approach to consultation
Authors: J. R Skelton
Journal: BMJ (2001)

<h3>Objective</h3> Genetic variation at the type II deiodinase (D2) gene (DIO2) was previously identified as osteoarthritis (OA) risk factor. To investigate mechanisms possibly underlying this association, we assessed D2 protein in healthy and OA-affected cartilage and investigated allelic balance of the OA risk polymorphism rs225014 at DIO2 in human OA joints. <h3>Methods</h3> Immunohistochemical staining of healthy and OA-affected cartilage was performed for D2. We then assessed allelic balance of DIO2 mRNA within OA-affected cartilage both at and away from the lesion, ligaments and subchondral bone. Allelic balance was measured by the amount of alleles ‘C’ and ‘T’ of the intragenic OA risk polymorphism rs225014 in heterozygous carriers. <h3>Results</h3> A markedly higher amount of D2 positive cells and staining intensity was observed in OA cartilage. A significant, 1.3-fold higher presence was observed for the OA-associated rs225014 ‘C’ allele relative to the ‘T’ allele of DIO2, which was significant in 28 of 31 donors. <h3>Conclusion</h3> In OA cartilage, D2 protein presence is increased. The allelic imbalance of the DIO2 mRNA transcript, with the OA risk allele ‘C’ of rs225014 more abundant than the wild-type ‘T’ allele in heterozygote carriers provides a possible mechanism by which genetic variation at DIO2 confers OA risk.

Randomized trial of porcarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine in the adjuvant treatment of high-grade astrocytoma: A medical research council trial
Authors: D Thomas, M Brada, S Stenning
Journal: Journal of Clinical Oncology (2001)

Purpose: Meta-analyses of the published literature suggest ct survival benefit to adjuvant chemotherapy for high-grade astrocytoma, which individual sma trials have been unable to demonstrate reliably. The Medical Research Council Brain Tumour Working Party initiated the largest randomized trial of adjuvant chemotherapy for glioma in an attempt to provide a definitive answer.Patients and Methods: After surgery, patients aged less than or equal to 70 years, with World Health Organization grade 3 or 4 astrocytoma, were randomized to radiotherapy alone (RT) or RT plus procarbazine, lomustine, and vincristine (PCV) chemotherapy (RT-PCV) given at 6-week intervals to a maximum of 12 courses (procarbazine 100 mg/m(2) days 1 to 10, lomustine 100 mg/m(2) day 1,and vincristine 1.5 mg/m(2) (max 2 mg) day 1). A neuropathology panel independently reviewed all cases. To reliably detect a 10% increase in 2-year survival (from 15% to 25%), 600 patients were required.Results: Between September 1988 and May 1997, 15 United Kingdom centers randomized 674 patients (RT = 339 patients; RT-PCV = 335 patients). With a median follow-up for survivors of 3 years, 617 patients have died, (RT = 310 patients; RT-PCV = 307 patients). Median survival was 9.5 months for RT and 10 months for RT-PCV (hazard ratio = 0.95; 95% confidence interval, 0.81 to 1.11; log-rank P =.50). Tests for interaction revealed no significant differences in treatment effect according to tumor grade, age, performance status, or extent of neurosurgery.Conclusion: This trial shows no benefit to PCV chemotherapy, and current data exclude an increase in median survival of more than 10 weeks and in a 1- or 2-year survival rate of more than 7% to 8%. This suggests that no-chemotherapy control arms remain ethical in randomized trials in high-grade astrocytoma. J Clin Oncol 19:509-518, (C) 2001 by American Society of Clinical Oncology.

Basic Physics in Radiology.
Authors: Lloyd Asquith Winston Kemp, R. Oliver
Journal: Annals of Internal Medicine (1971)

This book discusses the principles of basic physics which are likely to find application in the field of radiology. It does not cover the field generally known as rediologic physics. After single short chapters on statics, dynamics, and heat the authors discuss the various aspects of magnetism and electricity. The subject matter is presented in a straightforward and lucid fashion. There is no discussion of optics, which would seem to be within the scope of such a textbook. This volume will find only limited use in medical fields.

Anger attacks in unipolar depression, Part 2: Neuroendocrine correlates and changes following fluoxetine treatment
Authors: J F Rosenbaum, M Fava, J A Pava, M K McCarthy, R J Steingard, E Bouffides
Journal: American Journal of Psychiatry (1993)

Neuroendocrine derangements have been reported in both depression and aggressive behavior. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether the subset of depressed patients with anger attacks have a distinctive neuroendocrine abnormality.The thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) test was administered to 25 patients with major depression, 12 of whom reported having anger attacks, at the Depression Research Program of the Clinical Psychopharmacology Unit at the Massachusetts General Hospital. Twenty-two subjects underwent the TRH test again after 8 weeks of treatment with fluoxetine, a relatively selective serotonin uptake inhibitor.The depressed patients with anger attacks had a blunted prolactin response to TRH stimulation compared to the depressed patients without anger attacks. Treatment with fluoxetine was followed by an overall increase in the prolactin response to TRH among the depressed patients with anger attacks. The prolactin response to TRH also tended to predict the degree of response to treatment.These results suggest that the subset of depressed patients with anger attacks may have a greater central serotonergic dysregulation than depressed patients without such attacks.

Abstract 21252: Inflammatory Activity in Oral Cavity is Associated With Carotid Plaque Inflammation Regardless of Systemic Inflammation
Authors: Eung Ju Kim, Sungeun Kim, Hong Seog Seo, Yun Kyung Kim, Jin Oh Na, Cheol Ung Choi, Hong Euy Lim, Seung-Woon Rha, Chang Gyu Park, Dong Joo Oh
Journal: Circulation (2010)

Introduction: Periodontitis is one of candidates associated with elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and other inflammatory biomarkers. Epidemiologic studies have shown that periodontitis is associated with endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, and an increased risk of coronary heart disease and stroke. Purpose: We would like to know whether synchronization between focal periodontal inflammation and carotid plaque inflammation is associated with systemic inflammation or not. Method: We examined carotid vascular inflammation and dental inflammation, represented as the standardized uptake value (SUV) measured using FDG-PET scans in 86 periodontitis subjects and 49 subjects without periodontal subjects. We also measured the correlation between endothelial dysfunction assessed by measurement of the diameter of the brachial artery during flow (flow-mediated dilatation) and dental inflammation and carotid arterial inflammation. Other systemic inflammatory markers including hsCRP, ESR, fibrinogen and...
