Dilantin

Patient 3. This 30 year old female had for several years been considered by her friends and employers as being "highly strung" and prone to stress. Still she functioned essentially normally until the end of 1994. Her friends then began to notice subtle but progressive personality changes such as undue brooding over minor incidents occurring at work and in her social life. In March of 1995, she resigned from her job without any provocation, yet reacted as if she had been fired. Over the next 3 months, she struggled with increasing insomnia and fatigue. By July 1995, she had become anorexic and irrational in her thought processes. She complained of auditory hallucinations, terrifying nightmares and weakness and numbness of her right arm. Although, she appeared to recognize family members, she could no longer express herself and her speech was garbled. She was taken under restraint to a county hospital. No localizing signs were found on neurological examination. A lumbar puncture obtained shortly after admission showed 20 red blood cells and 33 wbc per cu mm 90% lymphocytes; 9% monocytes and 1% polymorphonuclear cells ; . A repeat CSF examination 3 days later, showed only 2 wbc per cu mm. CSF protein and glucose levels were normal. A CT scan with contrast and a MRI were both normal. There was no clinical improvement with a 16 day course of intravenous acyclovir. Rather, the patient experienced deepening coma, hyperpyrexia and mild generalized seizure activity, not accompanied by localizing EEG changes. She was treated with Dilantin and phenobarbitone but became even more deeply comatose. As with the previous patient, extensive infectious disease serological studies were non-contributory. She was transferred unconscious and unresponsive to another hospital where a brain biopsy was performed. The patient occasionally awoke from a deep coma but then exhibited facial grimacing and chewing movements, which were only controlled by further sedation. After 5 weeks of coma requiring continual assisted respiration, the patient became conscious. During the next month, she slowly regained the ability to feed herself and to sit up in bed. She was able to speak and to write limited sentences. Communication was difficult, however, because she was emotionally highly labile and regularly expressed anger and frustration at not understanding "what was going on in her head". She was encouraged to walk but her mobility was restricted because of the development of myositis ossificans in the lower right thigh. Dissatisfaction with her daughter's medical care, led her mother to withdrew the patient from the hospital. Over the next 3 months, the patient showed progressive improvement in her physical and mental activities. She was then able to converse effectively and could read for 1-2 hours each day. Her major complaint was forgetfulness such that she had difficulty recalling even events from the previous day. She had little or no memory of the severity of her earlier illness. She consciously limited activities that would require prolonged concentration and also avoided bright sunlight and strong odors since these factors triggered feelings of mental fatigue and depression.

Do not alter the progression the disease. The recent findings about immunotherapy are particularly important because of the need for therapies to prevent or reverse the course of Alzheimer's disease. "This is an area that biotechnology should be excited about, " says Dr. Weiner. Immunotherapy for Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases is a "vastly unchartered territory, " he adds, where there's plenty of room for biotechnology companies to establish claims. GEN.
August In a lengthy paper on human breast cancer, Wellings and Jensen University of California, Davis, California ; de scribed a wholemount method for study of the pathology of the entire human mammary gland. By a subgross sampling technique with histologic confirmation, the authors enu merated and identified focal dysplastic, metaplastic, hyper plastic, anaplastic and neoplastic lesions in 196 whole human breasts. Of these, 119 were suitable for quantitative morphologic analysis of the focal lesions by type. Morphologic evidence supported the hypothesis that most lesions traditionally grouped as mammary dysplasia or fibro cystic disease arose in terminal ductal-lobular units TDLU ; or in the lobules themselves. Isolated foci of ductal carci noma in situ within the TDLU were seen in 40 percent of cancerous breasts, which indicated that the disease was often multifocal. Of the contralateral breasts, 60 percent with clin ical cancer contained such lesions, and data confirmed the clinically known fact that women with breast cancer have a high rate of the disease in the remaining breast. That atypi cal lobules are derived from TDLU and are precancerous was evidenced morphologically. Analysis of the 28 pairs of breasts obtained from autopsies revealed that the two members of each pair had similar le sions, but the degree of cytologic atypia varied. Hypersecre tory lobules were found in nulliparous females, even in the eighth decade, and were more common in breasts from pa tients treated with digitalis, dilantin and reserpine. This tech nique provides a means to quantify the pathologic content of the entire human breast. Cusumano and associates University of Florida, Gaines ville, Florida ; have devised a protocol to examine the effects of aerosolized BCG in patients with nonresectable lung cancer. Twenty patients were treated with 90 aerosolized BCG doses. Although local and systemic reactions were frequent, the investigators found the procedure safe and practical. Of the 10 patients treated five or more times, four were stable and one slowly failed. Autopsies on five patients showed no BCG effects. The recommendation is that BCG be given before an attempt at surgical cure in the hope that the regional defenses will be enhanced, and the problems from microscopic metastases will be reduced. Exposing hamsters to the smoke of two types of research cigarettes, Reznik-Schler and coworkers Medizinische Hochschule Hannover, Hannover-Kleefeld, Germany ; found hyperplastic changes in the bronchial epithelia. Ultra structurally, there were epithelial invaginations, tilt of nuclear axis, increased number and size of lysosomes, as well as more intramitochondrial granules. One year after termination of chronic exposure to smoke, the alterations had neither reversed nor advanced and elocon.

Be the job of AIDS advocates to ensure that access to care is possible for those who need it. The near-miraculous success of the community-based AIDS response, as funded by the Ryan White CARE Act, must not be betrayed at the point of treatment by saying, "Sorry, we have the medicines, but we can't give them to you right now." As the problems produced by the American AIDS epidemic continue to grow, AIDS advocacy can not allow two decades of success to be sabotaged by daily events, inattention, today's headlines, or politics as usual. Clearly, national tragedies and urgent global needs must be responsibly addressed. These responses, however, must not be at the cost of shredding the already strained safety net for people living with AIDS that took so many people so long to create.

THE Pharmaceutical Price Regulation Scheme has been opened up for discussion by the Government before it starts negotiations with the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry on a replacement. The PPRS is a non-statutory scheme, agreed between the Government and the ABPI, which indirectly controls the prices of branded prescription medicines to the National Health Service by regulating the profits that companies can make on sales to the NHS. The current scheme has been in force since 1999 and expires in September 2004. The PPRS has existed in various forms since 1957. The Government is seeking views on whether the current scheme should continue unchanged, what the options for change are, what is the potential for deregulation and any alternative proposals that individuals or organisations might make. Under the current scheme, all products on the market on 1 October 1999 had their prices cut by 4.5 per cent. Manufacturers can set any price for new products with new active ingredients, but subsequent increases require Government approval. Companies are set a maximum return on capital employed ROCE ; with an allowance for research and development R&D ; costs. Companies with a low capital base are set a maximum return on sales ROS ; . If companies fail to achieve this return, that is their problem, but any profits above the maximum have to be returned to the Government. In a discussion document, the Department of Health asks whether there are any possible alternatives to ROCE and ROS as a basis for the PPRS. It also wants views on R&D allowances, possible alternatives to the current system for handling transfer pricing between company divisions and allowances for the cost of sales promotions. The document also suggests that the PPRS could be relaxed, or even abolished, if the NHS can be sure of paying fair and reasonable prices in a deregulated market.
