Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: investigation of a hospital outbreak using a case-control study

A retrospective case-control study of 50 MRSA-positive patients was carried out during an outbreak of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at an acute general hospital in London. Controls were randomly selected from MRSA-negative patients admitted during the outbreak period. Risk factors investigated included length of admission prior to screening, number of ward changes, main diagnosis, extent of staff contact, pressure sores, surgical and other invasive procedures and antibiotic treatment. Outcome variables examined were rates of infection (versus colonization) with MRSA and mortality. Patients with MRSA were in hospital longer before microbiological specimens were taken and moved wards more often than controls. In a logistic regression analysis, length of stay in hospital, pressure sores, physiotherapy and surgical procedures were associated with a significantly increased risk of acquiring MRSA. Odds ratios (and 95% confidence intervals) for having acquired MRSA were: 8·3 (1·02−71·43) if a patient had pressure sores; 3·7 (1·10−12·5) if they received physiotherapy; and 3·2 (1·82−10·0) if they underwent surgical procedures. The rate of clinical infection amongst patients with this strain of MRSA was 26% and included life-threatening infections such as septicaemia, underlining the potential virulence of MRSA. Surgery and physiotherapy may have been markers of debility. Physiotherapy was probably a marker of increased rates of contact with all hospital staff, and high standards of hand hygiene should be promoted amongst all staff as the most important factor in controlling an outbreak of MRSA. Good bed management is essential for hospital infection control.     

Exteroceptive suppression periods in jaw-closing muscles. Variability and relation to experimental pain and sustained muscle contraction

The duration of the late exteroceptive suppression period (ES₂) of temporal muscle EMG activity has been reported to be reduced in patients suffering from chronic tension-type headache. Methods of recording and analysing ES₂ have varied between centers and reproducibility of results within subjects , although insufficiently studied, has generally been poor. ES₂ was investigated in 30 healthy subjects, using a computerized technique of recording, rectifying and averaging the EMG signals. Hour to hour and week to week variations of ES₂ durations were calculated, and the influence of pain during a cold pressor test and of sustained muscle contraction on ES₂ durations was investigated. The intra-individual variation of ES₂ durations was 16.0% from hour to hour and 20.7% from week to week. The inter-individual variation was 36.7%. The present method for analysis of ES₂ periods proved to be reliable, as the intra-observer variation was 4.2% and the inter-observer variation 4.6%. ES₂ periods were significantly shorter on the first compared to the second day of examination ( p = 0.006) and during experimental pain ( p = 0.0005). We recommend the use of the computerized averaging technique in future studies and caution against the dependence of results upon factors such as conditioning and pain.     

Obesity in youth and middle age and risk of colorectal cancer in men

To investigate an association between colon cancer and obesity during early adulthood—a potentially important period in the etiology of this disease—the authors assembled, by computer linkage, a population-based historical cohort of 52,539 men born between 1913 and 1927 residing in Hawaii (USA), for whom weight and height had been recorded in 1942–43 and 1972. Linkage of this cohort to the Hawaii Tumor Registry resulted in the identification of 737 incident cases of colorectal cancer for 1972–86. An average of 3.8 cancer-free controls were matched to each case on month and year of birth and ethnicity of the parents. A case-control analysis in each anatomic subsite of the large bowel revealed that both early and middle-age body mass increased the risk of sigmoid cancer in men in a dose-dependent fashion. The odds ratios (OR) for sigmoid cancer for the highest compared with the lowest tertiles of Quetelet index were: 2.1 (95 percent confidence interval [CI]=1.4–3.2) and 1.7 (CI=1.1–2.5), at ages 15–29 and in prediagnostic years, respectively. These associations were additive and idependent of socioeconomic status. Men who were above the median Quetelet index in 1942 and 1972 had an OR of 2.7 (CI=1.8–4.0), compared with those who were below the median in both periods. This study provides further evidence for an association of obesity with colon cancer in men and suggests that this association is limited to the sigmoid colon and may be related to both early and late events of colon carcinogenesis.The authors are with the Epidemiology Program, Cancer Research Center of Hawaii, University of Hawaii.

尺骨鹰嘴骨折皮质骨加压螺钉固定的实验研究及临床应用

比较尺骨鹰嘴骨折加压螺钉与常用的4种内固定的强度,为临床选择内固定方法提供实验依据。用22具新鲜尸体肘关节做成横型、斜形和粉碎形鹰嘴骨折模型。用5种内固定后置于MD—10E万能电子力学试验机上,测定骨折处的位移与压力的关系;结果:钢丝内固定强度最小,钩钢板最大。髓内加压螺钉固定欠可靠。横形骨折皮质骨加压螺钉与张力带钢丝比较,统计学上无显著差异(P〉0.05),斜形骨折皮质骨加压螺丝钉强于张力带钢丝(P〈0.01)。粉碎形骨折使用钩钢板尤佳(P〈0.01)。临床应用24例中,22例平均随访14个月。骨折全部愈合,优良率达90.91％;认为皮质骨加压螺丝钉治疗横、斜形尺骨鹰嘴骨折,创伤小,操作简便,固定确切,是一种安全可靠的方法。     

应用Meta分析有效估计人群归因危险度百分比的探讨

人群归因危险度百分比 (populationattributableriskproportion ,PARP)是总体人群中某种疾病归因于某种因素的暴露所引起的发病 (死亡 )占全部发病 (死亡 )的百分比 ,反映该因素所引起的发病 (死亡 )占全部发病 (死亡 )的比重。通过PARP可了解各危险因素对人群中某疾病的发病所产生的影响 ,亦即消除某危险因素后 ,所产生的对预防该疾病的效果将占有多大比重。它能够为卫生政策的制订提供依据 ,有着重要的公共卫生的实际意义。目前常用的估计PARP的方法有两种 :一种是利用全国人群抽样调查获得的人群总暴露率来估计 ;另一种是利用某地区…     

Aza-peptides. III. Experimental structural analysis of aza-alanme and aza-asparagine-containing peptides

To determine the structural perturbations induced by the CαH→Nα exchange in aza-peptides, we have examined by H NMR and IR spectroscopy various derivatives of the aza-analogues of alanine, aspartic acid and asparagine in different organic solvents with increasing polarity. Their general formulas are: R'-AzXaa-NR²R³, R'-Pro-AzXaa-NR²R³ and R-AzXaa-Pro-NR²R³ (where AzXaa denotes the aza-analogue of the amino acid residue Xaa = Ala, Asp, Asn; R = Boc, Z; R², R³= H, Me, iPr). The aza-analogue of an amino acid residue appears to be a strong p-turn-inducing motif, and the AzAsn carboxamide side-chain is capable of interacting, as a proton donor, with the preceding peptide carbonyl group.
