A strategy for evaluating "psychogenic" symptoms.

Consultation and liaison psychiatrists are often asked to evaluate patients with physical symptoms in order to determine if those symptoms are emotionally caused. The author contends that the traditional way of approaching such patients involves an implied mind/body split and an implication of hidden psychological causes that antagonizes such patients needlessly. A case is discussed in which a different, strategic approach is taken such that the patient remains relatively open to the possibility of mental health assistance with her symptoms.

Epizootiological investigation of an outbreak of pullorum disease in an integrated broiler operation.

An integrated broiler company experienced a major outbreak of pullorum disease during 1990. The outbreak resulted in the distribution of Salmonella pullorum-infected birds to more than 150 roaster flocks in five states. Twenty-two parent (multiplier) breeder flocks became infected. An epizootiological investigation uncovered a grandparent male line breeder flock as the index flock supplying males to the affected parent flocks. Transmission apparently occurred vertically through the egg and horizontally by contact in the hatcheries and by placement of chicks on contaminated litter.
