The Structure And Function Of Urban Pharmacies: Visits To Community Pharmacies In Inner-City Chicago, Thomas J. Reutzel, Laura A. Wilson
The Structure And Function Of Urban Pharmacies: Visits To Community Pharmacies In Inner-City Chicago, Thomas J. Reutzel, Laura A. Wilson
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Visits were made to 21 pharmacies in two poor neighborhoods on the west side of Chicago and interviews conducted with pharmacists-in-charge. The objective of the study was to provide a comprehensive description of the function, capabilities, and problems of urban pharmacy. We present results on the structure and function of these inner-city pharmacies. The pharmacies fit one of three structural forms: chain, independent, or medical center. The majority of respondents viewed the function of the inner-city pharmacy as patient-centered but also identified several barriers to effective patient communication. The results suggest that inner-city physicians and pharmacists should communicate with patients …

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Although the United States spends more on health care than any country in the world, access to that care is becoming increasingly difficult. The National Cancer Institute and other federal agencies are sponsoring innovative research for delivering effective medical services, particularly to underserved populations. Models of successful collaboration between private and public sectors concerned with health care can be adapted and implemented at the national, state, and local levels. However, other measures are needed to ensure access to adequate health care for all Americans. Minimal but effective regulations are needed to ensure quality control, reduce duplication of services, and minimize …

The Epidemiology Of Prostate Cancer In Black Men, David A. Burks, Ray H. Littleton
The Epidemiology Of Prostate Cancer In Black Men, David A. Burks, Ray H. Littleton
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Data on the epidemiology of prostate cancer from the 1930s to the present document a dramatic racial difference in incidence, survival, and mortality rates in American men. American black men have the highest incidence and mortality rates of prostate cancer in the world. Survival data have been related to access to medical care, genetic and environmental factors, and cultural differences, including diet and social habits. Most reports present conflicting data with no clear positive correlations, and conclusions are often speculative. Better controlled, prospective studies of epidemiologic variables and a comprehensive genetic evaluation of black families with prostate cancer are needed …
Therapeutic Options For Localized Carcinoma Of The Prostate: The Role Of External Beam Radiation Therapy, Mark S. Khil, Jae Ho Kim
Therapeutic Options For Localized Carcinoma Of The Prostate: The Role Of External Beam Radiation Therapy, Mark S. Khil, Jae Ho Kim
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
During the last three decades the use of ionizing radiation, both external beam radiotherapy and interstitial radionuclide implant (brachytherapy), has greatly increased for the treatment of cancer of the prostate. The increased use of radiation therapy is in part due to the technological advance of high-energy megavoltage units as well as the steadily improving long-term results of radiotherapy. Because of the comparable tumor control rates, patients with early stage prostate cancer have several therapeutic options for curative treatment including radical prostatectomy, external beam radiation therapy, and interstitial brachytherapy. The role of external beam radiotherapy is discussed in terms of the …

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
New methods of early detection combined with recent advances in surgical techniques have resulted in more patients undergoing radical surgery for treatment of localized carcinoma of the prostate. Over 350 radical prostatectomies have been performed by our group since January 1987. We review the role of radical prostatectomy in the treatment of prostate cancer and our experience with 100 patients undergoing radical retropubic prostatectomy since the advent of nerve-sparing techniques to preserve potency.
Maximal Androgen Ablation: A Review, Brian J. Miles, Joseph Babiarz
Maximal Androgen Ablation: A Review, Brian J. Miles, Joseph Babiarz
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Primary management of advanced (stage D) adenocarcinoma of the prostate is androgen ablation. Since this principle was discovered in the early 1940s, therapeutic alternatives and "progress" have centered around different ways to obtain castrate levels of androgens. The role of adrenal androgens in supporting prostate or prostatic cancer growth has been debated for decades and until recently was believed to be minimal. In the 1980s the concept of maximum androgen suppression, involving both the testes and adrenal glands, was reintroduced with some investigators claiming exceptional results. We review studies that have examined this concept, with emphasis on the largest trial …

Megakaryoblastic Termination Of Myeloproliferative Disorders, Mahul B. Amin, Koichi Maeda, John L. Carey, Ramesh V. Babu, B. K. S. Raman
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Megakaryoblastic termination of myeloproliferative disorders is rare. The morphology of megakaryoblastic transformation can be subtle and is often mistaken for myeloid or lymphoid proliferations. Previously reported observations suggest a relatively poor prognosis for this category of patients, making precise diagnosis imperative. A multifaceted approach using morphology, ultrastructure, cytochemistry, and immunological membrane analysis may be helpful. We present two cases of myeloproliferative disorder with aggressive megakaryoblastic phases (myelofibrosis with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia and chronic myeloid leukemia with blast crisis). The clinical course is described and the results of the morphological, cytochemical, ultrastructural, and cytogenetic studies of both cases are presented. In …
Cerebral Oxygen Extraction During Severe Viral Encephalitis, Mark G. Goetting, Marwan L. Haddad
Cerebral Oxygen Extraction During Severe Viral Encephalitis, Mark G. Goetting, Marwan L. Haddad
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Viral encephalitis can cause devastating neurologic injury. Little is known about cerebral hemodynamics and metabolism in this condition. We report two patients with severe encephalitis, one proven and the other suspected to be due to herpes simplex, in whom the global cerebral oxygen extraction ratio (OER) and carbon dioxide (CO2) responsiveness was assessed. OER was low in both patients throughout the acute period. CO2 responsiveness was present initially in both and disappeared later in the more severely affected child. These cases demonstrate that cerebral hyperemia occurs in severe viral encephalitis and that hyperventilation can effectively reduce the intracranial pressure.

The Emerging Role Of Htlv-I/Ii And Hiv-1 Among Intravenous Drug Users In Detroit, Anthony F. Ognjan, Chris A. Lewandowski, Bradley T. Belian, John Burczak, Norman Markowitz, Helen Lee, Louis D. Saravolatz
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
During 1987-1988, a seroprevalence study of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) and the human T-cell lymphoma/leukemia virus (HTLV-l/II) was performed among Detroit intravenous drug users unaffiliated with substance abuse programs. Seroprevalence data along with patient demographic information were compared to a similar study performed in 1985-1986. In the earlier study, 12 (12.5%) of 96 individuals tested positive for HIV-1. Of the 74 available negative samples retested in 1987-1988 for retroviruses, 7 (9.5%) tested positive for HTLV-I/II. Thus, the overall retroviral (HIV-1, HTLV-I/II) seropositive rate for 1985-1986 was 22%. In 1987-1988, 11 (15.7%) of 70 individuals tested positive for HIV-1 and …
Interpretation Of The Pattern In Rate Ratios Across Strata, Paul F. Visintainer, Suzanne Havstad
Interpretation Of The Pattern In Rate Ratios Across Strata, Paul F. Visintainer, Suzanne Havstad
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
The pattern in the ratio of disease rates over strata is a summary statistic used to describe the changing risk of disease in one group relative to another. While patterns of the ratios of disease rates over strata appear to correspond to specific changes in disease rates, plots of the disease rates over strata seem to contradict the information yielded by the ratios. For example, if disease rates from populations A and B have identical rates of decline (parallel lines), the difference in the rates (A - B) at each strata remains constant, while the ratio of the rates (AIB) …

Epidermoid cancer of the head and neck occurs most frequently in individuals with predisposing factors for neoplastic development. Primarily these include exposure to smoking and alcohol, although other predisposing factors may he present. Site-speciflc symptoms along with a history of predisposing environmental exposure can direct physicians to suspect head and neck cancer. Endoscopy and ancillary testing are performed for tumor staging and subsequent treatment planning.

America's Health Care System: The Reagan Legacy, Terri Combs-Orme, Bernard Guyer
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Because of the dominance of the private sector in health care in the United States, health conditions are not as susceptible to changes in public policy as they are in other Western countries. however, the elderly and young children are directly affected by the federal government's health care policies and while both groups were the focus of major changes introduced by the Reagan administration, these changes were opposed buy Congress. Nevertheless, changes in health care funding and administrative arrangements have had a negative impact on the needy and, in addition, they have been exacerbated by the Reagan administration's wider social …

Nothing Recedes Like Success - Risk Analysis And The Organizational Amplification Of Risks, William R. Freudenburg
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Professor Freudenburg believes that there is room for improvement in Risk analysis, particularly in drawing on systematic studies of human behavior in the calculation of real, empirical probabilities of failure. The need is argued to be especially acute where technological Risks are associated with low expected probabilities of failure and are managed by human organizations for extended periods of time. This permits complacency to set in.

Effects Of Fluoride On Precipitation And Hydrolysis Of Octacalcium Phosphate In An Experimental Model Simulating Enamel Mineralization During Amelogenesis, M. J. Mura-Galelli, H. Narusawa, T. Shimada, M. Iijima, T. Aoba
Cells and Materials
The present study was undertaken to investigate effects of fluoride at low concentrations on the precipitation of calcium phosphates on hydroxyapatite seeds in media resembling the enamel fluid composition. To this end, we used a new crystal growth model adopting a miniaturized reaction column. Experimental solutions had the composition similar to that found in the enamel fluid, except for calcium concentrations which were adjusted at 1.0 and 0.5 mM. Precipitation reactions taking place in the system at the higher supersaturation ([Ca] = 1 mM) were characterized by co-precipitation of platelike OCP and rod-like apatite crystals, while the reaction at the …

The Binding Of Urinary Components And Uropathogens To A Silicone Latex Urethral Catheter, G. Reid, C. Tieszer, R. Foerch, H. J. Busscher, A. E. Khoury, H. C. Van Der Mei
Cells and Materials
The adhesion of uropathogens to urethral catheters initiates the infectious process which causes morbidity in a large patient population. Catheters were examined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy after use in three patients and following incubation in vitro with human urine, urea and creatinine, and found to have adsorbed a conditioning film containing carbon, nitrogen and in some cases phosphorous, calcium and sodium containing components. The binding of three strains of uropathogenic bacteria to the catheter surface was significantly influenced by the suspending fluid composition.
