A conversion code from ICHPPC-1 to ICHPPC-2.

Abstract

Faculty members from four departments of family medicine participated in the production of a definitive conversion from the first to the second versions of the International Classification of Health Problems in Primary Care (ICHPPC). A detailed conversion code with the appropriate ICHPPC-2 equivalent for each ICHPPC-1 diagnostic title is provided. Differences between the two classifications are discussed and suggestions are made for the use of the conversion code.

Oxygen free radicals and human disease.

Oxygen free radicals are very reactive molecules which can react with every cellular component. They are normally produced in organisms being involved in various biologic reactions. However, too high levels of these partially-reduced O2 species can give rise to functional and morphologic disturbances in cells. There is evidence to implicate oxygen free radicals as important pathologic mediators in many human disease processes.
