TL;DR: The new guidelines recognize the pre‐clinical stage of AD, enhance the assessment of AD to include amyloid accumulation as well as neurofibrillary change and neuritic plaques, and establish protocols for the neuropathologic assessment of Lewy body disease, vascular brain injury, hippocampal sclerosis, and TDP‐43 inclusions.
Abstract: A consensus panel from the United States and Europe was convened recently to update and revise the 1997 consensus guidelines for the neuropathologic evaluation of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other diseases of brain that are common in the elderly. The new guidelines recognize the pre-clinical stage of AD, enhance the assessment of AD to include amyloid accumulation as well as neurofibrillary change and neuritic plaques, establish protocols for the neuropathologic assessment of Lewy body disease, vascular brain injury, hippocampal sclerosis, and TDP-43 inclusions, and recommend standard approaches for the workup of cases and their clinico-pathologic correlation.

27 Jun 1996Abstract: Soil pH is probably the single most informative measurement that can be made to determine soil characteristics. At a single glance, pH tells much more about a soil than merely indicating whether it is acidic or basic. For example, availability of essential nutrients and toxicity of other elements can be estimated because of their known relationship with pH. The term pH was "invented" by the Swedish scientist Sorensen (1909) in order to obtain more convenient numbers and the idea quickly caught on. Gillespie and Hurst (1918) seem to have been among the earliest to determine pH (or PH, as it was then called) electrometrically using a platinum-palladium blackhydrogen gas electrode, a calomel reference electrode and a fairly cumbersome potentiometer and galvanometer system. At that period, it was still much more common to use colorimetric methods with indicator dyes than the electrometric method. This changed rapidly, however. Sharp and Hoagland (1919) used a similar but less involved method than Gillespie and Hurst (1918) and Healy and Karraker (1922) used a commercially available platinum-hydrogen gas electrode, potentiometer and galvanometer which had been designed by Clark (1920). The decade of the 1920s saw the development of the quinhydrone electrode which was less fragile and much less expensive than the hydrogen-platinum electrode. But, it was the development of the glass electrode in the 1930s that brought the determination of pH very rapidly to its present importance and convenience. The Beckman Model G pH meter (circa 1931) was practically indestructible and could be used as a portable as well as a laboratory instrument. Although it was cumbersome by today's standards, it was virtually foolproof (except for the constantly failing batteries) and many are still capable of operating if not actually operating today. As recently as two decades ago, the use of the small, handheld portable pH meters then available to determine pH in the field was a very imprecise and hazardous undertaking because both electrodes and meters were subject to sudden failures but this has changed rather abruptly in the last few years. Microcircuitry and plastic have contributed to rugged pH meters and electrodes that withstand

TL;DR: Criteria for the classification of giant cell (temporal) arteritis were developed by comparing 214 patients who had this disease with 593 patients with other forms of vasculitis, and 2 other variables were included: scalp tenderness and claudication of the jaw or tongue or on deglutition.
Abstract: Criteria for the classification of giant cell (temporal) arteritis were developed by comparing 214 patients who had this disease with 593 patients with other forms of vasculitis. For the traditional format classification, 5 criteria were selected: age greater than or equal to 50 years at disease onset, new onset of localized headache, temporal artery tenderness or decreased temporal artery pulse, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (Westergren) greater than or equal to 50 mm/hour, and biopsy sample including an artery, showing necrotizing arteritis, characterized by a predominance of mononuclear cell infiltrates or a granulomatous process with multinucleated giant cells. The presence of 3 or more of these 5 criteria was associated with a sensitivity of 93.5% and a specificity of 91.2%. A classification tree was also constructed using 6 criteria. These criteria were the same as for the traditional format, except that elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate was excluded, and 2 other variables were included: scalp tenderness and claudication of the jaw or tongue or on deglutition. The classification tree was associated with a sensitivity of 95.3% and specificity of 90.7%.
