The aim of this article is to consider the suitability of online pharmacies into European internal market area. This required considering the models of present online pharmacies in respect to the existing legislation. Data on online pharmacy settings was collected by looking some online pharmacies, which were found by using Goggle search machine with term "online pharmacy" and by studying websites of some well-known online pharmacies. European legislation and policy were studied from European Union's official website. Online drug markets seem to be increasing in popularity for reasons related to their ready availability and cost benefits. Few online pharmacies are based in Europe, yet online markets are worldwide. Community legislation does not stipulate on the legality of online pharmacies on European internal markets. Instead Community legislation offers framework for electronic commerce that could also include online pharmacy practise. National legislation, however, may rule them out either directly or indirectly. Regardless of European internal markets online pharmacies' cross-border operations are particularly complicated. Preliminary ruling from the European Court of Justice concerning one European online pharmacy's cross-border practise is awaited 2003-2004 and will offer some aspects for future. 相似文献

Background
Brain tumors (BTs) in adolescence and young adulthood (AYA) differ from those in childhood or late adulthood. However, research concerning late effects in this particular survivor group is limited. This study evaluates late morbidity of survivors diagnosed in AYAs.Methods
We identified from the Finnish Cancer Registry all survivors diagnosed with BT at the ages 16–24 years between 1970 and 2004 (N = 315) and used data from the Hospital Discharge Registry to evaluate their late (≥5 y after diagnosis) morbidity requiring treatment in a specialized health care setting. A sibling cohort of BT patients diagnosed before the age of 25 years was used as a comparison cohort (N = 3615).Results
The AYA BT survivors had an increased risk for late-appearing endocrine diseases (HR, 2.9; 95% CI, 1.1–8.0), psychiatric disorders (HR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.2–3.2), diseases of the nervous system (HR, 9; 95% CI, 6.6–14.0), disorders of vision/hearing loss (HR, 3.6; 95% CI, 1.5–8.5), diseases of the circulatory system (HR, 4.9; 95% CI, 2.9–8.1), and diseases of the kidney (HR, 5.9; 95% CI, 2.5–14.1). Survivors with irradiation had an increased risk for diseases of the nervous system compared with non-irradiated survivors (HR, 3.3; 95% CI, 1.8–6.2). The cumulative prevalence for most of the diagnoses remained significantly increased for survivors even 20 years after cancer diagnosis.Conclusions
The AYA BT survivors have an increased risk of morbidity for multiple new outcomes for ≥5 years after their primary diagnosis. This emphasizes the need for structured late-effect follow-up for this patient group. 相似文献3.

In brief A high school football player suffered an acute lateral lower leg compartment syndrome following an apparent peroneal muscle strain. Early diagnosis was made on the basis of worsening symptoms and signs and by intracompartment pressure readings. Prompt fasciotomy and removal of necrosed tissue, followed by casting and then air splinting, allowed a full recovery and return to play. 相似文献

Objective
To examine self-reported professional practices of postpartum contraceptive counselling at Finnish community health centres.Design
A survey study with self-administered online questionnaires.Setting
All local municipalities (n = 107) in the Expert Responsibility Area of Tampere University Hospital in Western Finland in 2005.Subjects
A total of 69 (64% of 107) health centre physicians and 80 (75%) nurses performing postpartum check-ups.Main outcome measures
Contraceptive method most often initiated or recommended to breastfeeding women at postpartum visit; timing of postpartum initiation of hormonal and intrauterine contraceptive methods in relation to breastfeeding and resumption of menses.Results
The most common contraceptive method initiated or recommended to breastfeeding women by both physicians (41%) and nurses (45%) was the condom, followed by progestin-only pills and intrauterine contraception. Few professionals recommended breastfeeding (lactational amenorrhea) as the only contraceptive method. Only eight (12%) physicians inserted a copper-releasing intrauterine device and five (7%) a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system typically at the postpartum visit; the majority delayed the insertions until the resumption of menses. Fifty-three (77%) physicians initiated combined oral contraceptives mostly when breastfeeding was terminated and menses had returned. Over half of the municipalities involved in the study did not provide any medical contraceptives free of charge postpartum.Conclusion
Professionals’ reports indicate that initiation of effective contraceptive methods is delayed after childbirth. In order to promote better postpartum contraception practices, updated evidence-based guidelines are needed. 相似文献5.

Biological therapy for ankylosing spondylitis (AS) has led to improved disease control beyond that of conventional treatments. International recommendations encourage clinicians prescribing biological treatments to register patients in national registers to collect information on outcome and toxicity. Patients with AS (n = 229) from the Register of Biological Treatment in Finland (ROB-FIN) with severe disease of long duration were followed-up for up to 24 months. Due to an active disease, one or more concomitant disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) were used by 86% at commencement of biological therapy. This add-on strategy with infliximab led to a rapid pain relief and improvement of patient's and physician's global assessments, C-reactive protein/erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and swollen and tender joint counts within 6 weeks. Concomitant use of NSAID and oral corticosteroid was reduced. Corresponding results were documented at 3 months with etanercept, which was more recently approved for the treatment of spondyloarthropathies. Seventy-nine percent of the patients were ASAS 20 responders. A subgroup of AS patients with only axial involvement (n = 46) responded correspondingly. The first biological drug was discontinued in only 7% due to lack of efficacy and in 6% due to adverse events. Anti-TNF agents, often used in combination with DMARDs, appeared to have persistent effectiveness and limited toxicity in a real-life clinical setting in a cohort of Finnish AS patients with severe disease and long disease duration. 相似文献

AimsThus far, the prognostic value of reverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling after ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) has not been fully evaluated. We sought to investigate the incidence, major determinants, and long-term clinical significance of reverse LV remodeling in a large series of STEMI patients successfully treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (P-PCI).Methods and resultsSerial complete 2D-echocardiograms were obtained within 24 h after P-PCI, and at 1 and 6 months in 512 consecutive reperfused STEMI patients. Reverse remodeling was defined as a reduction >10% in LV end-systolic volume (LVESV) at 6 month follow-up. Reverse LV remodeling occurred in 49% of study population. At follow-up (41.6 ± 23 months), late heart failure (HF) rate was significantly higher among patients without reverse LV remodeling as compared with those with it (32% vs. 11%, P < 0.0001). At multivariate analysis, independent predictors of reverse LV remodeling were a small infarct size measured as peak creatine kinase value (P < 0.0001), a small functional myocardial damage measured as wall motion score index within the infarct zone (P = 0.018) and baseline LVESV (P < 0.0001). After adjustment for several clinical, echographic and angiographic variables, Cox analysis identified reverse LV remodeling as the only beneficial independent predictor of long-term heart failure-free survival (HR: 0.44, 95% CI: 0.275–0.722).ConclusionsReverse LV remodeling occurred in half of successfully reperfused STEMI patients. Small structural and functional myocardial damages within the infarct zone are the major determinants of reverse LV remodeling. As expression of effective myocardial salvage by P-PCI, the reverse remodeling is an important predictor of favorable long-term outcome. 相似文献

Background
In coeliac disease, ingestion of gluten induces the production of transglutaminase 2 (TG2)-targeted autoantibodies by TG2-specific plasma cells present at high frequency in the small intestinal mucosa in untreated disease. During treatment with a gluten-free diet (GFD), the number of these cells decreases considerably. It has not been previously investigated whether the cells are also present prior to development of villous atrophy, or in non-responsive patients and those with dietary lapses. We aimed to define the frequency of small bowel mucosal TG2-specific plasma cells in coeliac disease patients with varying disease activity, and to investigate whether the frequency correlates with serum and small intestinal TG2-targeting antibodies as well as mucosal morphology and the number of intraepithelial lymphocytes.Results
Mucosal TG2-specific plasma cells were found in 79% of patients prior to development of mucosal damage, in all patients with villous atrophy, and in 63% of the patients after 1 year on GFD. In these disease stages, TG2-specific plasma cells accounted for median of 2.3, 4.3, and 0.7% of all mucosal plasma cells, respectively. After long-term treatment, the cells were present in 20% of the patients in clinical remission (median 0%) and in 60% of the patients with poor dietary adherence (median 5.8%). In patients with non-responsive coeliac disease despite strict GFD, the cells were found in only one (9%) subject; the cells accounted for 2.4% of all plasma cells. A positive correlation between the percentage of TG2-specific plasma cells and serum TG2 antibody levels (rS?=?0.69, P?<?0.001) and the intensity of mucosal TG2-targeting IgA deposits (rS?=?0.43, P?<?0.001) was observed.Conclusions
Our results show that TG2-specific plasma cells are already detectable prior to villous atrophy, and that generally their frequency increases during overt disease. By contrast, on GFD, the percentage of these cells decreases. Overall, the presence of TG2-specific plasma cells in the small bowel mucosa mirrors the presence of gluten in the diet, but the frequency is not always parallel to the level of serum or intestinal TG2 antibodies. These findings increase the knowledge about the development of the TG2 plasma cell responses especially in the early phases of coeliac disease.9.

Objectives To describe adolescent sexual health services in primary care in Finland, focusing on services for contraceptive counselling, sexually transmitted infections and abortion.Methods Service provision, accessibility and practices were surveyed in all 63 health centre organizations (HCOs) in a hospital district in Western Finland via separate e-mailed questionnaires to chief physicians (n = 49, response rate 78%), directors of nursing (58, 92%), doctors (49, 78%) and nurses (62, 98%).Results Dedicated youth clinics existed in only three HCOs. In others, services were provided in family planning, maternity or outpatient clinics. The average wait for contraceptive consultation was 4.8 days to a nurse and 12.5 days to a doctor. In 15 HCOs doctors stipulated a minimum age for combined hormonal contraception. Free supply of contraceptives was often limited to initiation. On-site instructions for chlamydia screening existed in 11 HCOs. Nurses could test for chlamydia without doctor's involvement in 46 HCOs. School nurses participated actively in sexuality education in secondary schools.Conclusions Adolescent sexual health services were generally adequately available in the HCOs studied. However, services tailored for adolescents were rare. Some medical barriers to access to contraception were found. To improve the system, further involvement of nurses in service provision is recommended. 相似文献

The corpus callosum (CC) is the largest fiber tract in the human brain, allowing interhemispheric communication by connecting homologous areas of the two cerebral hemispheres. In adults, CC size shows a robust allometric relationship with brain size, with larger brains having larger callosa, but smaller brains having larger callosa relative to brain size. Such an allometric relationship has been shown in both males and females, with no significant difference between the sexes. But there is some evidence that there are alterations in these allometric relationships during development. However, it is currently not known whether there is sexual dimorphism in these allometric relationships from birth, or if it only develops later. We study this in neonate data. Our results indicate that there are already sex differences in these allometric relationships in neonates: male neonates show the adult‐like allometric relationship between CC size and brain size; however female neonates show a significantly more positive allometry between CC size and brain size than either male neonates or female adults. The underlying cause of this sexual dimorphism is unclear; but the existence of this sexual dimorphism in neonates suggests that sex‐differences in lateralization have prenatal origins. 相似文献
