Nationwide investigations of intestinal obstruction in Japan

Two nationwide questionnaire surveys of intestinal obstruction in Japan were undertaken, covering two two-year periods, from January, 1975 to December, 1976 and from January, 1985 to December, 1986, respectively. The findings of a comparative review of these two surveys indicated that although the overall mortality of intestinal obstruction had not changed between 1975/76 and 1985/86, being 6.8 per cent and 6.5 per cent, respectively, simple adhesive obstruction had decreased from 3.2 per cent in 1975/76 to 2.0 per cent in 1985/86. The main cause of adhesion was laparotomy and in cases of both simple adhesive obstruction and strangulated adhesive obstruction, the rate of adhesion secondary to laparotomy of the upper gastrointestinal tract and colon and rectum had increased between 1975/76 and 1985/86. Obstructions caused by neoplasms had increased from 8.2 per cent in 1975/76 to 10.0 per cent in 1985/86, while those caused by adhesions had incresed further still, from 42.5 per cent in 1975/76 to 60.8 per cent in 1985/86. Among the latter group, nonoperatively treated cases had increased, which may be accounted for by the fact that facilities which adopt non-operative treatment using intestinal decompression as the first choice for simple adhesive obstruction cases have increased. In both surveys, the mortality of cases receiving nonoperative treatment was lower than that of operative cases.     

Sustained good glycaemic control in NIDDM patients by implementation of structured care in general practice: 2-year follow-up study

Summary In primary care it is difficult to treat the growing number of non-insulin-dependent diabetic (NIDDM) patients according to (inter)national guidelines. A prospective, controlled cohort study was designed to assess the intermediate term (2 years) effect of structured NIDDM care in general practice with and without ’diabetes service' support on glycaemic control, cardiovascular risk factors, general well-being and treatment satisfaction. The ’diabetes service', supervised by a diabetologist, included a patient registration system, consultation facilities of a dietitian and diabetes nurse educator, and protocolized blood glucose lowering therapy advice which included home blood glucose monitoring and insulin therapy. In the study group (SG; 22 general practices), 350 known NIDDM patients over 40 years of age (206 women; mean age 65.3 ± SD 11.9; diabetes duration 5.9 ± 5.4 years) were followed for 2 years. The control group (CG; 6 general practices) consisted of 68 patients (28 women; age 64.6 ± 10.3; diabetes duration 6.3 ± 6.4 years). Mean HbA_{1 c} (reference 4.3–6.1 %) fell from 7.4 to 7.0 % in SG and rose from 7.4 to 7.6 % in CG during follow-up (p = 0.004). The percentage of patients with poor control (HbA_{1 c} > 8.5 %) shifted from 21.4 to 11.7 % in SG, but from 23.5 to 27.9 % in CG (p = 0.008). Good control (HbA_{1 c} < 7.0 %) was achieved in 54.3 % (SG; at entry 43.4 %) and 44.1 % (CG; at entry 54.4 %) (p = 0.013). Insulin therapy was started in 29.7 % (SG) and 8.8 % (CG) of the patients (p = 0.000) with low risk of severe hypoglycaemia (0.019/patient year). Mean levels of total and HDL-cholesterol (SG), triglycerides (SG) and diastolic blood pressure (SG + CG) and the percentage of smokers (SG) declined significantly, but the prevalence of these risk factors remained high. General well-being (SG) did not change during intensified therapy. Treatment satisfaction (SG) tended to improve. Implementation of structured care, including education and therapeutic advice, results in sustained good glycaemic control in the majority of NIDDM patients in primary care, with low risk of hypoglycaemia. Lowering cardiovascular risk requires more than reporting results and referral to guidelines. [Diabetologia (1997) 40: 1334–1340] Received: 5 February 1997 and in revised form: 22 May 1997

Nicotine discrimination and self-administration in humans as a function of smoking status

Nicotine’s discriminative stimulus effects may be critical to understanding reinforcement of tobacco smoking. It is not known whether regular nicotine exposure produces tolerance or sensitivity to these effects. In this study, male and female smokers (n = 11) and never-smokers (n = 10) were trained to discriminate 20 μg/kg nicotine by nasal spray from placebo (0) on day 1. On day 2, both groups were tested on generalization of this discrimination across intermittent presentations of 0, 3, 6, 12, and 20 μg/kg nicotine in random order. Quantitative and quantal behavioral discrimination tasks, used in previous research, were employed. On day 3, subjects were instructed to self-administer sprays from the 20 μg/kg nicotine versus 0 bottles in a concurrent-choice procedure. All but one subject (female smoker) learned reliably to discriminate 20 μg/kg nicotine from placebo (≥ 80% correct) on day 1. Nicotine-appropriate responding on day 2 was attenuated in smokers versus never-smokers at 20 μg/kg on the quantitative task and at 12 μg/kg on the quantal task, suggesting tolerance. There was no difference in responding at other doses. Smokers also showed attenuated responses on the subjective measure of “head rush”, which was associated with discrimination responding in both groups. Nicotine self-administration was significantly greater in smokers versus never-smokers, who self-administered nicotine below chance levels, and was inversely related to discrimination behavior in never-smokers but unrelated in smokers. Women smokers showed less change in nicotine-appropriate responding across generalization doses, reported less confidence in discriminating training doses during acquisition on day 1, and tended to self-administer less nicotine on day 3. These results indicate that smokers may become tolerant to the discriminative stimulus effects of nicotine, perhaps promoting increased use.

Development and reproducibility of a tool to assess school food-purchasing practices and lifestyle habits of Australian primary school-aged children

Objective: To describe the development and reproducibility of a self‐report instrument, for use with children in years 4–6, to identify sources of food eaten during the day, and type and frequency of food purchases at school. Design: Tool development stages included formulation of content and format, expert review, piloting and a test–retest study. Subjects/setting: The pilot study included school students (n = 20) in years 4 and 5 (seven girls, mean age 9.7 ± 0.7 years) attending an Australian public primary school. The test–retest study was performed in a large metropolitan public primary school (n = 245 children, 52% female, mean age 10.7 ± 0.91 years) including children from years 4 (n = 88), 5 (n = 84) and 6 (n = 73). Statistical analysis: A Kappa statistic was used to assess level of agreement between the two time periods separated by 1 week. The results were analysed using SAS version 8.2 with each question compared at time 1 and 2. Results: The mean kappa was 0.529 using pairings from 17 questions. Values ranged from 0.18 to 0.71 (CI 0.46–0.60). Conclusions and applications: The School Eating Habits and Lifestyle Survey has been developed and pilot‐tested in primary school‐aged children and shown to have moderate stability over time. The results show that each phase of development, particularly those spent in consultation and testing, led to progressive improvement of this instrument. This process improved the quality of information produced and gave insights to self‐report of dietary intake and behaviours among children.

Reproducibility and validity of a food frequency questionnaire in European and polynesian New Zealanders

The reproducibility and validity of a self‐administered 142‐item food‐frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was assessed in a population comprising 124 European and 52 Polynesian (17 Maori and 35 Pacific Island) New Zealanders aged 40–65 years. Reproducibility correlation coefficients, determined by administration of the same questionnaire on two occasions 3 years apart, were higher in European than Maori and Pacific Island. participants, ranging from 0.47 to 0.87 in Europeans (median 0.66) and from 0.41 to 0.79 in Maori and Pacific Island people (median 0.44). In general, there were no significant differences in mean nutrient intakes calculated from the two FFQs by Europeans or Maori and Pacific Island participants despite their cultural and language differences. When the FFQ was compared with a 3‐day food diary in a sub sample of 101 Europeans, 15 Maori and 22 Pacific Islanders, the validity was good for most nutrients, with overestimation of a few nutrients in each ethnic group. Correlation coefficients between the 3‐day food diary and FFQ ranged from 0.41 to 0.81 in Europeans (median 0.48) and from 0.36 to 0.56 in Maori and Pacific Island people (median 0.55). Ratios of energy intake to resting metabolic rate suggested that Maori and Pacific Island people were more likely to underestimate their habitual energy intake by the 3‐day diet diary method compared to Europeans, but that Europeans were more likely to underestimate total energy intake by the food frequency method and Pacific Island participants to overestimate it. Obese Europeans and Maori were more likely to under‐report dietary intakes by the 3‐day diary method. We conclude that our FFQ performed better in European than Maori and Pacific Island participants.
