TL;DR: It is suggested that local endothelin production by inflammatory cells may contribute to vasculitis in chronic inflammatory bowel disease by inducing intestinal ischaemia through vasoconstriction.

TL;DR: Results indicate that consuming a psyllium-enriched cereal as part of a low fat diet improves the blood lipid profile of hypercholesterolemic adults over that which can be achieved with a lowFat diet alone.
Abstract: We conducted a meta-analysis to determine the effect of consumption of psyllium-enriched cereal products on blood total cholesterol (TC), LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and to estimate the magnitude of the effect among 404 adults with mild to moderate hypercholesterolemia (TC of 5.17-7.8 mmol/L) who consumed a low fat diet. Studies of psyllium cereals were identified by a computerized search of MEDLINE and Current Contents and by contacting United States-based food companies involved in psyllium research. Published and unpublished studies were reviewed by one author and considered eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis if they were conducted in humans, were randomized, controlled experiments, and included a control group that ate cereal providing /=50 y) on blood lipids. The meta-analysis showed that subjects who consumed a psyllium cereal had lower TC and LDL-C concentrations [differences of 0.31 mmol/L (5%) and 0.35 mmol/L (9%), respectively] than subjects who ate a control cereal; HDL-C concentrations were unaffected in subjects eating psyllium cereal. There was no effect of sex, age or menopausal status on blood lipids. Results indicate that consuming a psyllium-enriched cereal as part of a low fat diet improves the blood lipid profile of hypercholesterolemic adults over that which can be achieved with a low fat diet alone.

TL;DR: When apnoea occurs centrally or reflexly, carotid chemoreceptor excitation resulting from asphyxia now causes a much enhanced bradycardia and even cardiac arrest, but paradoxically does not usually affect respiration.

TL;DR: The number of genetically susceptible individuals within these populations has increased, and the rapidity of the change suggests that environmental factors are responsible.
Abstract: A rising incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) has been reported in many northern European countries, with a rate equivalent to a doubling time of 20-30 yr in some. North American and Japanese studies report a similar trend, although they are less uniform in their findings. Although the number of genetically susceptible individuals within these populations has increased, the rapidity of the change suggests that environmental factors are responsible. If these could be identified, primary prevention might become possible.

TL;DR: High-grade invasive ductal carcinoma may paradoxically display similar imaging features to a benign breast mass, and high-grade tumours are more likely to demonstrate posterior acoustic enhancement, and a proportion has a well-defined margin on ultrasound.
