The effectiveness of risk-based intrapartum chemoprophylaxis for the prevention of early-onset neonatal group B streptococcal disease.

OBJECTIVE: Our purpose was to evaluate the effectiveness of a risk-based intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis strategy for the prevention of early-onset neonatal group B streptococcal disease. STUDY DESIGN: Cases and controls were selected from infants born to women with one or more risk factors: preterm labor or rupture of membranes, prolonged rupture of membranes (>18 hours), fever during labor, or previous child with group B streptococcal disease. Cases were matched with controls by birth hospital and gestational age. Data abstracted from medical records were analyzed to estimate the effectiveness of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis. RESULTS: We analyzed data from 109 cases and 207 controls. Nineteen (17%) case versus 69 (33%) control mothers received an acceptable regimen of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis. In adjusted analyses, the effectiveness of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis was 86% (95% confidence interval, 66%-94%). When the first dose of antibiotics was given > or =2 hours before delivery, the effectiveness increased to 89% (95% confidence interval, 70%-96%); when it was given within 2 hours of delivery, the effectiveness was 71% (95% confidence interval, -8%-92%). Effectiveness was lowest in mothers with intrapartum fever (72%, 95% confidence interval, -9%-93%). On the basis of a 70% prevalence of maternal risk factors expected among cases in the absence of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis, we estimate that the risk-based strategy could reduce early-onset group B streptococcal disease by 60%. CONCLUSIONS: The risk-based approach to intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis is effective in preventing early-onset group B streptococcal disease. To achieve the maximum preventive effect, the first dose of antibiotics should be administered at least 2 hours before delivery.

Recurrent cardiac myxoma with multiple distant metastasis and malignant change.

A 37 year-old female underwent open heart surgery for a left atrial myxoma. The post-operative course was uneventful and she was discharged two weeks later. She had regular monthly follow-up in the outpatient department until 10 months postoperatively when she was readmitted to the orthopedic ward for excision of a left ankle tumor. Two days after admission, she developed severe orthopnea. The initial diagnosis was heart failure, and she was transferred to the medical ward for treatment. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography revealed a recurrent left atrial tumor. Because of acute obstruction of the mitral valve and deterioration of her condition, she underwent emergent open heart surgery. The recurrent atrial tumor was excised; histopathologic examination revealed a myxoid sarcoma. Multiple tumors were found on this admission, including a mass in the neck and in the left forearm; computed tomography revealed a brain tumor in the left posterior frontal lobe and a chest wall tumor. She died two months later. Recurrent cardiac myxoma with multiple distant metastasis may have a malignant potential. Because of the potential for tumor recurrence, long-term and regular follow-up is mandatory.

[Bovine alpha-sl-casein gene sequences direct expression of a variant of human tissue plasminogen activator in the milk of transgenic mice].

The fusion gene containing the promoter of casein gene, LAtPA minigene and 3' flanking sequences of casein gene was introduced into the fertilized eggs of mice by microinjection. Five positive transgenic mice were obtained. The concentration of LAtPA in the milk of one female transgenic mouse is 0.18 microgram/ml. This result showed that the LAtPA minigene could correctly express the bioactive LAtPA in the milk of the transgenic mouse under the control of the regulatory elements of the casein gene.

Conversion of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation to non-pulsatile left ventricular assist device. Is it out-of-date for non-pulsatile LVAD?

BACKGROUND: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) provides an immediate support for acute deterioration of hemodynamic and pulmonary status, but what is the best decision for these critical patients? Biventricular assist device (BVAD) or left ventricular assist device (LVAD)? We proposed a protocol of step-by-step conversion from ECMO to LVAD after assurance of the reversibility of right ventricle and pulmonary function. METHODS: After femoral venoarterial ECMO was inserted for the critical patients, the left atrial drainage was added to the ECMO firstly and the femoral arterial inflow was shifted to the ascending aorta for preventing possible peripheral vascular complications. Temporary clamp of right heart drainage was tried to test right heart function 24 to 48 hours later. The sweep gas flow of oxygenator could be reduced gradually to test the pulmonary function. Therefore, the right heart drain and the oxygenator could be withdrawn to become a non-pulsatile LVAD or shift to pneumatic LVAD directly. There were four clinical experiences with successful conversion without temporary right ventricular assist device. RESULTS: All of them were able to convert their ECMO to LVAD smoothly in 8.0+/-2.5 days. Three of them were shifted to non-pulsatile LVAD, and one was converted to HeartMate. All but one could be weaned from the ventilator. No BVAD was needed in these patients. Due to the shortage of donor hearts, only one had the chance to undergo heart transplantation. CONCLUSIONS: The protocol did provide a good guideline for decision-making for those under ECMO support necessitating bridge to transplantation.

Ambulance utilization in metropolitan and rural areas in Taiwan.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Emergency medical services (EMS) have expanded rapidly in the Asian developing countries recently. However, the patterns of ambulance utilization in the rural and urban areas of these countries have not been thoroughly described. This study investigated the patterns of ambulance utilization in two urban areas and the larger rural area of Taiwan formerly designated Taiwan Province. METHODS: We studied a total of 304,368 ambulance missions during 1997 in Taiwan. We analyzed the differences in the characteristics of emergency calls and the interventions performed on the scene in two urban areas, Taipei City and Kaohsiung City, and in the rural area formerly designated Taiwan Province. RESULTS: The call volume and percentage of non-transport calls were higher in the more developed of the two urban areas, Taipei City, than in Kaohsiung (p < 0.01). The incidence of calls with trauma-related causes was higher in both urban areas. However, the percentage of calls placed for trauma-related reasons was higher in the rural area (p < 0.01). More calls for acute medical illness were placed in Taipei City (p < 0.01) than in the rural area. The number of interventions performed by ambulance staff was higher in Taipei City and Kaohsiung City than in the rural area (p < 0.01). The availability of acute illness management was generally lower than needed in all areas. CONCLUSIONS: Call volume and the number of interventions performed were higher in the urban area, whereas the percentage of trauma-related calls was higher in the rural area. These findings suggest that EMS use patterns in Taiwan are transitioning towards a pattern characteristic of a more developed country. The differences in ambulance utilization patterns must be considered in plans to further develop EMS services in these areas.

Correlation of total VEGF mRNA and protein expression with histologic type, tumor angiogenesis, patient survival and timing of relapse in non-small-cell lung cancer.

We have quantified the expression of all 4 isoforms of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using a new kinetic quantitative PCR method, real-time quantitative (RTQ) RT-PCR, and investigated the association between VEGF expression at the mRNA and protein levels and the clinicopathologic variables, tumor angiogenesis, patient survival and timing of relapse. Surgical tumor specimens from 72 NCSLC patients (37 squamous-cell carcinomas, 35 adenocarcinomas) were examined. Twenty-eight patients had stage I, 10 stage II and 34 stage IIIA or IIIB disease. Total VEGF mRNA (all 4 isoforms) was quantified by RTQ RT-PCR, while VEGF protein expression and microvessel number in tumors were assessed immunohistochemically. VEGF mRNA was detected in all 72 tumor samples at significantly higher levels than in adjacent normal tissue. Tumoral VEGF mRNA levels correlated strongly with the VEGF protein staining score and microvessel count. Adenocarcinomas showed significantly higher VEGF mRNA expression and a higher protein staining score than squamous-cell carcinomas. High tumoral VEGF mRNA expression was associated with advanced (IIIA or IIIB) tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, high tumoral microvessel counts, short patient survival (<24 months) and early relapse (<12 months), while a high VEGF protein staining score was associated with high tumoral microvessel counts, short patient survival and early relapse. Patients with high tumoral levels of both VEGF mRNA and protein had significantly shorter survival and earlier relapse. In multivariate analysis, the VEGF protein staining score and nodal status were the most important independent predictors of survival and recurrence. We conclude that RTQ RT-PCR is a sensitive method for detecting and quantifying VEGF mRNA expression in NSCLC and that the expression levels of total VEGF mRNA and protein in NSCLC are strongly associated with histologic type, tumor angiogenesis, survival and timing of relapse. High VEGF expression in adenocarcinomas may contribute to their greater metastatic potential.

Antibiotic susceptibility profiles for group B streptococci isolated from neonates, 1995-1998.

Antibiotic susceptibility profiles were analyzed for 119 invasive and 227 colonizing strains of group B streptococci isolated from neonates at 6 US academic centers. All strains were susceptible to penicillin, vancomycin, chloramphenicol, and cefotaxime. The rate of resistance to erythromycin was 20.2% and to clindamycin was 6.9%. Resistance to erythromycin increased in 1997. Type V strains were more resistant to erythromycin than were type Ia (P=.003) and type Ib (P=.004) strains and were more resistant to clindamycin than were type Ia (P<.001), type Ib (P=.01), and type III (P=.001) strains. Resistance rates varied with geographic region: in California, there were high rates of resistance to erythromycin and clindamycin (32% and 12%, respectively), and low rates in Florida (8.5% and 2.1%, respectively). Penicillin continues to be the drug of choice for treatment of group B streptococcus infection. For women who are penicillin intolerant, however, the selection of an alternative antibiotic should be guided by contemporary resistance patterns observed in that region.

Accuracy of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of peritonitis compared with the clinical impression of the surgeon.

HYPOTHESIS: Peritonitis is a well-known indication for surgery, but its preoperative cause usually is not established. We hypothesize that abdominal ultrasonography is superior to the clinical impression of the surgeon in detecting the cause of peritonitis. DESIGN: A prospective case series. SETTING: A major university hospital in Taiwan, Republic of China. PATIENTS AND METHODS: One hundred two patients with a diagnosis of peritonitis admitted to the Department of Emergency Medicine, National Taiwan University Hospital, Taipei, were included in this study. All 102 patients underwent an abdominal ultrasonographic examination; and the ultrasonographic findings of these patients were classified into 2 categories: positive findings and normal screening results. The accuracy of clinical impression in detecting the cause of peritonitis was compared with the accuracy of abdominal ultrasonography. RESULTS: Ultrasonography and clinical impression accurately diagnosed the peritonitis in 85 (83.3%) and 52 (51.0%) of the patients, respectively. The difference between ultrasonography and clinical impression in the diagnosis of peritonitis was significant (P<.001). Among 45 patients without a preoperative clinical diagnosis, a diagnosis was made by ultrasonography for 32 (71%) of them. There were a total of 98 patients with positive ultrasonographic findings, and 4 patients had normal screening results. Of the 98 patients with positive ultrasonographic findings undergoing surgery, all had abdominal pathological characteristics. The 4 patients with normal screening results received nonoperative treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasonography is a more sensitive technique than clinical judgment in diagnosing peritonitis. Ultrasonography may be a useful diagnosing modality in patients with peritonitis in whom the clinical cause is unclear.

Reactive pulmonary artery vasoconstriction in pulmonary consolidation evaluated by color Doppler ultrasonography.

A total of 122 patients with pulmonary consolidation on chest radiographs underwent color Doppler ultrasonography to evaluate hemodynamic change in regional pulmonary artery in pulmonary consolidation due to various causes. The diseases underlying pulmonary consolidation included 66 simple pneumonia, 37 obstructive pneumonia, 13 tumor consolidation and 6 pulmonary infarctions. Blood flow signals in consolidation were detected by color-flow mapping. The degree of reactive vasoconstriction was evaluated from analysis of the spectral waveform of the blood flow in the segmental pulmonary artery by several vessel resistance-indicating Doppler ultrasound (US) indices, including pulsativity index (PI), resistive index (RI), and acceleration time (AT). The results showed that reactive vasoconstriction was most marked in obstructive pneumonia, followed by simple pneumonia, and least in tumor consolidation (p < 0.001, Kruskal-Wallis test and p < 0.001, Dunn's test for comparison of PI, RI and AT values between different groups of pulmonary consolidation). No flow was detected in pulmonary infarction. We conclude that color Doppler US is a useful tool for evaluating reactive vasoconstriction in pulmonary consolidation. The different degrees of reactive vasoconstriction may be helpful in exploring the possible etiology of pulmonary consolidation.

Insertion of percutaneous ECMO cannula.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation plays a very important role in resuscitation when patients are approaching impending death, because it can provide adequate cardiac and pulmonary support immediately. But percutaneous tunnel creation is a critical step for set-up of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation by percutaneous Seldinger technique. A guidewire dilator forceps used in percutaneous tracheostomy was tried to create the femoral subcutaneous tunnel. We found it could make easy the advancement of the percutaneous cannula into the vessels and over-dilatation of the vessels could also be prevented by controlled jaw opening.

Quantification of VEGF mRNA expression in non-small cell lung cancer using a real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR assay and a comparison with quantitative competitive reverse transcription-PCR.

A reliable quantitative method for measuring gene product expression is important in investigating the relationship between growth factors and tumor biological behavior. In this study, we quantified the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA in 104 paired samples of lung cancer tissue and the surrounding nontumorous lung tissue using a new kinetic quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, ie, real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RTQ RT-PCR). The samples consisted of 46 squamous cell carcinomas, 50 adenocarcinomas, and 8 undifferentiated cell carcinomas. In 17 cases, the results obtained were compared with those obtained using quantitative competitive RT-PCR (QC RT-PCR). Using RTQ RT-PCR, VEGF mRNA expression was detected and quantified in all 104 (100%) lung cancer samples and their normal counterparts. VEGF mRNA expression in the lung cancer tissue was significantly higher than in the normal counterparts (95% CI: 0.575 approximately 1.727, p < 0.001; paired t test). In 68 (65.4%) cases, VEGF mRNA expression was higher in the cancer tissue than normal tissue. VEGF mRNA expression was higher in nonsquamous cell carcinoma (p = 0.02), and higher in tumor with hilar or mediastinal lymph node metastasis (p = 0.024). QC RT-PCR was able to detect and quantify VEGF mRNA expression in 15/17 (88%) lung cancer samples and 12/17 (70.6%) normal tissue samples. The values for VEGF mRNA expression were higher in the tumor in 13 (76%) cases. Comparison of the values of the VEGF mRNA expression quantified using RTQ RT-PCR or QC RT-PCR showed a good correlation between results obtained using these two methods, both in cancer tissue (r = 0.68, p = 0.0025) and normal counterpart (r = 0.53, p = 0.027). Agreement between the results for the relative expression of VEGF mRNA expression in cancer and normal tissue obtained using these two methods was seen in 14/16 cases (88%). We conclude that RTQ RT-PCR is as accurate as QC RT-PCR and is more sensitive than QC RT-PCR in detecting and quantifying VEGF mRNA expression in lung cancer and normal tissues, and both methods reveal that the VEGF mRNA expression is higher in lung cancer tissue than in healthy lung tissue.

A study of the effectiveness of different measuring times and counting methods of human radial pulse rates.

The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and validity of measuring resting radial pulse rates by the use of three measuring times: 15, 30 and 60 s; and two counting methods: one beginning with zero (0) and the other with one (1). A two-factor within-subjects experimental design was used to determine the mean difference between pulse rates obtained from the radial artery, and the heart rates recorded by simultaneous electrocardiographic (ECG) recordings. The sample comprised 206 students. Mean difference was used to calculate the extent of any differences between radial pulse rates and the rate shown by the ECG. The interaction between measuring time and counting methods was confirmed using a two-factor within-subjects analysis of variance. For all types of measuring time, the counting from zero method produced a greater mean difference than the counting from one method. For all measuring times, the mean difference between radial pulse rates and rates shown by the ECG were non-significant in the counting from one method. In other words, when the pulse rate is counted from one, the rates obtained at 15 or 30 s could be used to predict the one-minute resting pulse rates. The results of this study can contribute to the evidence base for this commonly used aspect of patient care.

Accuracy of ED sonography in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.

The objective was to compare the accuracy of abdominal sonography performed by emergency physicians in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis with that of the surgeons' clinical impression. Three hundred-seventeen patients with right lower abdominal pain admitted to the Department of Emergency Medicine at National Taiwan University Hospital in Taipei, Taiwan were prospectively included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the time of day they visited the emergency department. Those patients visiting the emergency department during the day were included in group I and those during the night were in group II. Group I was diagnosed by sonography. Group II was diagnosed by surgeons' clinical impression without sonographic examination. The definitive diagnosis of acute appendicitis was confirmed by the pathological reports. In the diagnosis of acute appendicitis, group I had a sensitivity of 96.4%, a specificity of 67.6%, a positive predictive value of 89.8%, a negative predictive value of 86.2%, and an accuracy of 89.1%, and group II had a sensitivity of 86.2%, a specificity of 37.0%, a positive predictive value of 74.6%, a negative predictive value of 55.6%, and an accuracy of 70.6%. The overall accuracy of sonography performed by emergency physicians in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis was superior to that of the surgeons' clinical impression.

Role of electrophysiological studies and arrhythmia intervention in repairing Ebstein's anomaly.

BACKGROUND: Repairing Ebstein's anomaly without correction of associated arrhythmia may result in sudden death. Catheter or surgical ablation is indicated for various symptomatic tachyarrhythmias in Ebstein's anomaly. METHODS: Between October 1973 and October 1997, 30 patients with Ebstein's anomaly underwent surgical repair in our hospital. Tricuspid valve replacement was performed in 13 patients, tricuspid annuloplasty and valvuloplasty in the remaining 17 patients. Preoperative electrophysiological studies were performed in 11 patients after 1980. Concomitant arrhythmia ablation was done in 10 patients: 4 for Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, 2 for atrioventricular (AV) nodal reentrant tachycardia, one for ventricular tachycardia and 3 for paroxysmal atrial flutter and fibrillation. RESULTS: No mortality or major morbidity occurred in those patients undergoing arrhythmia intervention. There were 7 deaths in total; 6 died suddenly, and the other died of purulent mediastinitis. None of the 6 sudden deaths underwent preoperative electrophysiological evaluation. The functional recovery was good in all survivals. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that detailed preoperative electrophysiological evaluation in patients with Ebstein's anomaly is mandatory. Aggressive surgical intervention of the associated arrhythmias in addition to anatomic correction can reduce the sudden death in Ebstein's anomaly.

Phase 1 and phase 2 studies of Salmonella enterica serovar paratyphi A O-specific polysaccharide-tetanus toxoid conjugates in adults, teenagers, and 2- to 4-year-old children in Vietnam.

Salmonella enterica serovar Paratyphi A O-specific polysaccharide (O-SP) was activated with 1-cyano-4-dimethylaminopyridinium tetrafluoroborate (CDAP) and bound to tetanus toxoid (TT) with adipic acid dihydrazide as a linker (SPA-TT(1)) or directly (SPA-TT(2)). In mice, these two conjugates elicited high levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG) anti-lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in serum with bactericidal activity (E. Konadu, J. Shiloach, D. A. Bryla, J. B. Robbins, and S. C. Szu, Infect. Immun. 64:2709-2715, 1996). The safety and immunogenicity of the two conjugates were then evaluated sequentially in Vietnamese adults, teenagers, and 2- to 4-year-old children. None of the vaccinees experienced significant side effects, and all had preexisting LPS antibodies. At 4 weeks after injection, there were significant increases of the geometric mean IgG and IgM anti-LPS levels in the adults and teenagers: both conjugates elicited a greater than fourfold rise in the IgG anti-LPS level in serum in >/=80% of the volunteers. SPA-TT(2) elicited slightly higher, though not statistically significantly, levels of IgG anti-LPS than did SPA-TT(1) in these age groups. Accordingly, only SPA-TT(2) was evaluated in the 2- to 4-year-old children. On a random basis, one or two injections were administered 6 weeks apart to the children. No significant side effects were observed, and the levels of preexisting anti-LPS in serum were similar in children of all ages. A significant rise in the IgG anti-LPS titer was elicited by the first injection (P = 0.0001); a second injection did not elicit a booster response. Representative sera from all groups had bactericidal activity that could be adsorbed by S. enterica serovar Paratyphi A LPS.

Interleukin-8 messenger ribonucleic acid expression correlates with tumor progression, tumor angiogenesis, patient survival, and timing of relapse in non-small-cell lung cancer.

Tumor-associated angiogenesis is important for tumor growth and metastasis. Interleukin (IL)-8 was recently reported to be an important angiogenic factor both in vitro and in vivo. In this study we evaluated, for the first time, IL-8 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), using real-time quantitative reverse-transcription-polymerase chain reaction, and correlated IL-8 mRNA expression in tumor and nontumor lung samples from 58 patients with NSCLC (29 with squamous cell carcinoma and 29 with adenocarcinoma, of whom 20 had Stage I, 10 had Stage II, and 28 had Stage III disease) with these patients' clinicopathologic characteristics, angiogenesis, and outcome. IL-8 protein expression and tumor microvessel count (MC) were assessed immunohistochemically. IL-8 mRNA expression was significantly greater in tumor tissue; high expression was highly associated with tumor in advanced stages (p = 0.03), distant lymph node metastasis (p = 0.02), high tumor MC (> 123) (p = 0.00003), short survival (< 26 mo) (p < 0.00001), and early relapse (< 16 mo) (p < 0.00001). Tumor MC correlated strongly with IL-8 mRNA expression (r = 0.56, p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed IL-8 mRNA expression and intratumor MC to be the most important predictors of patient survival and relapse. Thus, in NSCLC, IL-8 mRNA expression is strongly associated with tumor progression, tumor angiogenesis, survival, and time to relapse, suggesting its use as a prognostic indicator.

The epidemiology of typhoid fever in the Dong Thap Province, Mekong Delta region of Vietnam.

A population-based surveillance for typhoid fever was conducted in three rural communes of Dong Thap Province in southern Vietnam (population 28,329) for a 12-month-period starting on December 4, 1995. Cases of typhoid fever were detected by obtaining blood for culture from residents with fever > or = 3 days. Among 658 blood cultures, 56 (8.5%) were positive for Salmonella typhi with an overall incidence of 198 per 10(5) population per year. The peak occurrence was at the end of the dry season in March and April. The attack rate was highest among 5-9 year-olds (531/10(5)/year), and lowest in > 30 year-olds (39/10(5)/year). The attack rate was 358/10(5)/year in 2-4 year-olds. The isolation of S. typhi from blood cultures was highest (17.4%) in patients with 5 to 6 days of fever. Typhoid fever is highly endemic in Vietnam and is a significant disease in both preschool and school-aged children.

Sinus node dysfunction in a patient with lithium intoxication.

Lithium can suppress sinus node function, especially when it is used concomitantly with carbamazepine. We describe a 42-year-old woman who took lithium and carbamazepine for manic-depressive psychosis and seizure disorders, and developed marked sinus node dysfunction. Drug screening showed a toxic serum lithium level of 3.38 mmol/L and a normal serum carbamazepine level of 22.1 mumol/L. An electrophysiologic study showed prolongation of the corrected sinus node recovery time (CSNRT) of up to 9,708 msec. After three sessions of hemodialysis, normal sinus rhythm was resumed. The serum lithium level was 0.1 mmol/L 2 weeks later, and the CSNRT shortened to 309 msec. Because the combination of lithium and carbamazepine in psychiatric patients is not uncommon, recognition of the potential complication of severe bradyarrhythmia is essential in the emergency care of such patients.
