Coma In Infancy And Childhood, Edwin C. Myer Jan 1977

Coma In Infancy And Childhood, Edwin C. Myer

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Coma is defined as an altered state of consciousness from which arousal due to appropriate stimuli is not adequately achieved. Such a definition of the state of coma is plagued with semantic problems, and terminology describing various comatose states is vast and even more ambiguous when applied to the infant. Rather than using such terms as coma, semicoma, stupor, or obtundation, it is better to describe the physical state of the unresponsive patient. The description should include the patient’s appearance, movements either spontaneous or elicited from stimuli, the patient’s response to the stimulus, and the nature of the stimulus, whether …

Acute Seizure Problems, Cary Suter Jan 1977

Acute Seizure Problems, Cary Suter

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Seizures are a symptom and not a disease. A seizure is the result of an abnormal electrical discharge of a collection or group of living but damaged or abnormal neurons. When the group of neurons is in the cerebral cortex, a focal or partial seizure occurs, producing abnormal activity related to that part of the brain. The victim may experience a focal jerking or focal numbness, or flashing lights if the lesion is in the occipital lobe; or he or she may be subject to peculiar automatic behavior if the lesion is in the temporal lobe. When the activity spreads …

Bacterial Meningitis: Some Epidemiologic And Clinical Factors In Diagnosis, Vincent P. Calabrese Jan 1977

Bacterial Meningitis: Some Epidemiologic And Clinical Factors In Diagnosis, Vincent P. Calabrese

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In ancient times all acute delirium states were known as “phrenesis.” It was not until the 17th century that inflammations of the meninges and cerebrum were differentiated from each other. By the 19th century meningitis had been described to the extent that a number of epidemics were reported both in the United State and Europe, but it was the development of the lumbar puncture by Quincke in 1893 which opened up a new diagnostic era for the disease.

Genetic Studies Of Deafness And Of Retinitis Pigmentosa, Joann A. Boughman, Frederick R. Bieber, Walter E. Nance Jan 1977

Genetic Studies Of Deafness And Of Retinitis Pigmentosa, Joann A. Boughman, Frederick R. Bieber, Walter E. Nance

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In experimental animals where the generation time is short and matings can be controlled experimentally, it is a relatively simple task to determine whether a trait is genetic, how it is inherited, and where the causal gene pair is located. However, in human genetics, inferences must be drawn by pooling observations on many small families in which the trait of interest has occurred. The condition may be etiologically heterogeneous, resulting from environmental causes in some families and showing variable patterns of inheritance in others. Hereditary deafness and retinitis pigmentosa (RP) provide instructive examples of the problems involved in the genetic …

The Genetic And Environmental Effects On Diabetes In Humans And Animals: An Overview, Roger M. Loria, Linda A. Corey Jan 1977

The Genetic And Environmental Effects On Diabetes In Humans And Animals: An Overview, Roger M. Loria, Linda A. Corey

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Despite intense scrutiny the precise etiology of diabetes mellitus remains unclear. There appear to be two major forms of diabetes: juvenile-onset or insulin-dependent diabetes, and late-onset or insulin-independent diabetes; the late-onset form, in itself, may be etiologically heterogeneous. Either form may occur at any age, with a clear distinction between the two often being difficult to make. Juvenile-onset diabetes, representing 5% to 10% of all cases, is characterized by abrupt onset, clinical manifestation of hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis, and generally by a requirement for exogenous insulin; in maturity-onset diabetes plasma levels of insulin are usually normal or elevated and the abnormality …
