TL;DR: The MMPI Panic-Fear scale was found to be related to an aspect of medical intractability, i.e., length of hospitalization, in two chronic respiratory illness patients.
Abstract: In a prior study,1 development of a 15-item Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) Panic-Fear scale was described which relates to the reported frequency of Panic-Fear symptoms (e.g., feeling scared, panicky, worried, and frightened) on the Asthma Symptom Checklist (ASC). High MMPI Panic-Fear scale scores describe fearful, highly emotional individuals who profess to have their feelings hurt more easily than others, to feel helpless and to give up easily in the face of difficulty. High-scoring asthmatic patients were found to have been prescribed more intensive oral corticosteroid regimens at the time of discharge from a residential treatment facility months after testing. This relationship was not attributable to differences in pulmonary function.In the present study, the results of the earlier research were expanded in several ways. First, the MMPI Panic-Fear scale was found to be related to an aspect of medical intractability, i.e., length of hospitalization, in two chronic respiratory illne...

TL;DR: No single procedure was consistently abnormal, but the battery of tests provided a useful and specific CNS-SLE diagnostic profile.
Abstract: The clinical course and diagnostic profile of 13 patients with central nervous system involvement and systemic lupus erythematosus (CNS-SLE) are presented. The diagnostic yield for each procedure was measured as the percent abnormal: CSF total protein was 38%; increased CSF IgG 69%; decreased CSF hemolytic C4 10%; increased CSF anti-DNA 64%; electroencephalogram 80%; flow brain scan 50%; and static brain scan 0%. No single procedure was consistently abnormal, but the battery of tests provided a useful and specific CNS-SLE diagnostic profile.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the genotype is an important determinant of the LQTS phenotype in terms of arousal and nonarousal-related cardiac events and that there are differential clinical, electrocardiographic, and genetic features among LQ TS patients who experienced cardiac events with and without acute arousal.
Abstract: In patients with the long QT syndrome (LQTS), the occurrence of cardiac events (syncope or cardiac arrest) is frequently associated with acute arousal caused by exercise, swimming, emotion, or noise. However, cardiac events may also occur during sleep or with ordinary daily activities. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are differential clinical, electrocardiographic, and genetic features among LQTS patients who experienced cardiac events with and without acute arousal. We identified 1,325 patients with cardiac events from the International LQTS Registry. Based on the precipitating conditions of the first event, 427 patients were classified as arousal, 345 as nonarousal, and the remaining 553 were unknown (not classifiable). Gene linkage was known in 78 of the 772 patients with classifiable first events. The age at first cardiac event was significantly younger in the arousal than the nonarousal group (11.7 vs 15.5 years, respectively; p

TL;DR: The hand and patient survival rate exceeds the initial results of any previously transplanted organ and strongly supports continuation of these human trials of hand transplantation.
Abstract: The scientific basis for human trials of hand transplantation was both experimental and clinical. Prolonged survival of limb transplants was achieved in small and large animals by using novel immunosuppressive drugs. Further, all tissue components of the hand (skin, muscle, tendon, nerve, bone, and joint) were individually transplanted with success in humans. After appropriate institutional review of the ethics, experimental data, treatment protocol, and informed consent, clinical trials were approved. Thirteen hands have been transplanted onto 10 recipients, with resultant low morbidity and no mortality. With the exception of one recipient who requested amputation after the second year, results of hand transplantation have been highly successful. Functional return mirrored that seen after hand replantation. The limbs were progressively integrated into activities of daily living and professional tasks. The hand and patient survival rate exceeds the initial results of any previously transplanted organ. This success strongly supports continuation of these human trials.

TL;DR: Inhibiting translation with antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, tetracycline, or fusidic acid protects extant mRNA from degradation, presumably by immobilizing ribosomes, whereas puromycin exposes mRNA to more rapid degradation than normal.
Abstract: Various aspects of the coupling between the movement of ribosomes along messenger ribonucleic acids (mRNA) and the synthesis and degradation of mRNA have been investigated. Decreasing the rate of movement of ribosomes along an mRNA does not affect the rate of movement of some, and possibly most, of the RNA polymerases transcribing the gene coding for that mRNA. Inhibiting translation with antibiotics such as chloramphenicol, tetracycline, or fusidic acid protects extant mRNA from degradation, presumably by immobilizing ribosomes, whereas puromycin exposes mRNA to more rapid degradation than normal. The promoter distal (3′) portion of mRNA, synthesized after ribosomes have been immobilized by chloramphenicol on the promoter proximal (5′) portion of the mRNA, is subsequently degraded.
