Background: Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are mobile implantable cardiac devices for immediate treatment of live threatening ventricular arrhythmias. However, these devices can affect patients, physiologically, psychologically and have effects on electrical devices. Case report: The case of a 61-year-old patient is reported. The patient came for regular 3-months visits with his ICD and complained about electromagnetic interference with all household electrical appliances, especially refrigerator and digital television set-top box. He described several phantom shocks when he came close to the electrical appliances. He noted the exact times and symptoms of the episodes but the device memory did not record anything. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the rare occurrence of psychological intolerance to implanted ICD shortly after implant. The device was programmed for higher sensitivity. The patient was calmed and reassured about the reprogramming.  相似文献

Case histories from the pediatric reanimation department (intubated children of 0 to 15) and neonatology of Renne's hospital are reviewed for the years 1987 and 1988. Among 1.555 admissions (486 in reanimation, 1069 in neonatology), 63, that is 4%, concerned the clinical geneticist. The distribution may be done in 32 malformations and genetic syndromes, 8 chromosomal defects, 6 neuro-muscular diseases, 6 metabolic diseases, 3 cystic fibrosis, 3 spina bifida, 5 varied diseases. The advice of the genetic counsellor was requested 8 times for an urgent case, and to arrive at a decision about a reanimation, 7 times before the death of a patient for the management of diagnostic techniques: biopsy, blood or urines sent to a specialized center.  相似文献

Case histories of four patients who suffered severe head trauma resulting in complete bitemporal hemianopia are presented. The optic chiasm was visualized in only one patient. It was markedly swollen and disintegrated. This appearance was consistent with multiple minute tears of the crossed fibres in the median sagittal plane. Other theories to explain the bitemporal field defect are discussed.  相似文献

Overexposure of humans to ionizing radiation has occurred worldwide in the past and will surely occur again in the future. In order to allow an effective radiation accident management, it is consequently necessary to be prepared for such emergency situations and to improve means and ways to help people suffering from radiation-induced health impairments. Such approaches should rely on knowledge and experience gained from previous radiation incidents. A prerequisite for any scientific evaluation and comparison of information related to radiation accidents is to collect data in a standardized way. Therefore, the SEARCH database (System for Evaluation and Archiving of Radiation accidents based on Case Histories) has been developed in our department and implemented as an Oracle 8.0 database containing to date more than 800 case histories. The use of this registry is so far limited to active contributors and requires each contributor to sign a cooperation agreement. More information is available under http://www.faw.uni-ulm.de/radmed/.

Background

Behcet’s disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis characterized by oral and genital aphthosis, and ocular and skin lesions. The disease is involved in vascular, gastrointestinal, and central nervous systems. Vasculitis may exacerbate fatal problems, such as anastomotic pseudoaneurysms. If the mesenteric vessels are involved, severe abdominal symptoms such as intestinal obstruction may occur.

Case presentation

This case report describes a young female patient who suffered from BD with recurrent abdominal aortic pseudoaneurysms, as well as deep venous thrombosis and subsequent complications of incomplete intestinal obstruction. This patient first underwent stent grafting, which was followed by rupture of two newly formed anastomotic pseudoaneurysms within six months. Emergency open surgical repair (OSR) was then performed on the ruptured pseudoaneurysms. Thrombosis and incomplete ileus occurred five months after surgery. This case was unique due to the presence of incomplete intestinal obstruction being the possible main complaint for a patient with Behcet’s disease, and it is the first ever case to be reported.

Conclusion

Intestinal obstruction may present as the possible main complaint in BD. Careful and attentive strategy should be carried out to prevent fatal outcomes.

Background

Glomerulocystic kidney disease is an uncommon type of cystic renal disease. It is characterized by cortical microsysts, which are represented by cystic dilatation of Bowman's spaces.

Case presentation

We describe a case of glomerulocystic disease in a neonate and another in an abortus associated with tracheo-oesophageal fistula and megacystic-megaureter syndrome. The kidney on autopsy was sponge-like and revealed presence of cysts corresponding to dilatations of Bowman's space microscopically. In these two cases, the Glomerulocystic Kidney Disease in one case corresponded to a sporadic form and, in the other, to a syndromic, non-heritable form of glomerulocystic kidney disease.

Conclusion

The associated anomalies in Glomerulocystic Kidney disease are well described in the literature. Two more new unrelated associations are described in this article.  相似文献

This paper presents a framework which connects case assignment with the semantics of argument realization. Broad notions of agency and affectedness are decomposed into more fine-grained semantic properties, loosely based on Dowty??s Proto-Role theory, but conceived in terms of privative opposition and organized into a lattice. This lattice provides a semantic space of participant properties and supports defining hierarchical relations among participant types, interpreted as semantic prominence, as well as topological relations such as ??closeness??, interpreted as semantic similarity between participant types. Cases are defined as connected regions of this space, relating a given case to a structured set of semantic properties. A case system is represented as a semantic system, which embodies oppositions and contrasts, and operates against the backdrop of the general semantics of argument realization, where one can define notions such as maximal agents and maximal patients and represent generalizations from the research on transitivity. Core case markers (e.g. ergative, accusative) are represented as subspaces of the lattice spreading outwards from the maximal agent and maximal patient nodes of the lattice. Case alternations arise when the subspace of the lattice delimited by a predicate??s entailments for an argument is partitioned by different cases, exemplified with the genitive/accusative alternation in Russian occurring with direct objects of certain intensional predicates. This method also provides a treatment of case polysemy, viz. a single case subsuming multiple uses, by relating the diverse uses at the more abstract semantic level of the case??s region on the lattice, demonstrated with non-canonical uses of the dative.  相似文献

doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2012.00629.x Langerhans’s cell histiocytosis in old subjects: two rare case reports and review of the literature Background: Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a proliferative disease of histiocyte‐like cells that generally affects children; LCH onset is rare in adults; immunohistochemistry is essential to obtain the correct diagnosis, and treatment protocols are controversial. Objective: To describe two new cases of adult onset oral LCH. Case reports: Case 1: a 71‐year‐old woman, complaining of diffuse oral pain, presented with erythematous mucosal lesions; the panoramic radiograph and CT scan showed multiple mandible radiolucent areas. Immunohistochemical assay for S‐100, CD1a and langerin test was essential in reaching the correct diagnosis. Case 2: a 77‐year‐old female patient presented with a non‐painful, non‐bleeding, slightly elevated erythematous palatal lesion of 6 months duration, together with a genital vulvar lesion of uncertain nature. The pathology confirmed the diagnosis of LCH. Many therapies (etoposid, radiotherapy) could induce only a clinical partial remission; Cladribine induced a complete recovery. Conclusion: The first case was difficult to diagnose: the clinical presentation and course of the disease (LCH) in the elderly are multiple and unpredictable. An immunohistochemistry study is often essential to obtain the correct diagnosis. The second case required several therapeutic interventions: even though some cases regress spontaneously, others require systemic chemotherapy.  相似文献

This paper presents several of the author's experiences as a liaison psychiatrist on coronary care units. Technological and pharmacological advancements over the past decade have made major contributions toward reducing the psychological stress of patients admitted to these units. The psychiatrist's main liaison role is in assisting with patient education and rehabilitation efforts. Examples are given of a patient education program and reasons for systematic evaluations for such programs. The psychiatrist also can aid in patient rehabilitation efforts carried out in the outpatient clinic. Results are given from an experimental program of group therapy as an adjunct to the treatment of post-myocardial infarction patients. Finally, two case histories are briefly presented which exemplify subjects' serum uric acid and serum cholesterol variability associated with psychological stresses encountered during their hospitalization following a myocardial infarction.  相似文献

In the 2017 Maritime Delimitation in the Indian Ocean Case, the International Court of Justice stated that “in appropriate circumstances” maritime delimitation claims beyond 200 nm may be admitted before the Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf issues a recommendation. This is a deviation from the Court's previous approach in the 2016 Nicaragua v. Colombia (Preliminary Objections) Case. This article follows the evolution of the international case law with respect to the admissibility of outer continental shelf delimitation claims absent a final and binding outer limit, and highlights the positive implications of the International Court's most recent formula.  相似文献
