As part of an institution-wide program to enhance the education physicians in diagnosing and treating alcohol dependence abuse, a comprehensive survey was conducted which all new admissions adult inpatient services The Johns Hopkins Hospital were screened for alcoholism. prevalence screen-positive alcoholism, by department, as follows: medicine (25%), psychiatry (30%), neurology (19%), obstetrics-gynecology (12.5%), surgery (23%). Detection rates house staff faculty caring those patients who...
Objective: To identify the effects of substance abuse status (active, former, and never) on utilization highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), medication adherence, virologic immunologic responses to therapy. Design: Prospective cohort study 764 HIV-1-infected patients who attended an urban HIV clinic participated in a standardized interview. Main Outcome Measures: Past HAART, self-reported nonadherence with therapy, changes HIV-1 RNA level CD4+ lymphocyte count relative prior peak...

A direct cytoplasmic connection between macrophages and potential antibody-producing cells has been demonstrated in lymph nodes spleen. This was observed the tissues from both immunized nonimmunized rabbits.
Measurements have been made of the fluxes thallous ions (Tl(+)) across membrane frog sartorius muscle fibers. These show that at an external concentration 74 microM influx is about 270 x 10(-15) moles/cm.(2) sec., while efflux from a with internal equal to above 5 sec. The increased order 300-fold during twitch, and Tl(+) reach steady-state distribution between fiber water Ringer solution very close corresponding ratio for K(+).

The advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has reduced the incidence most AIDS-related opportunistic illnesses (OI) and death in HIV-infected individuals. We investigated whether there are demographic disparities HIV disease progression HAART era compared with before.HIV-infected patients an urban clinical practice USA were using survival methods for time to a new AIDS-defining OI or therapeutic 1 (monotherapy combination therapy; 1990--1995; n = 2016) versus 2 (HAART;...
In a case-control study to identify risk factors for fluconazole-resistant oroesophageal candidiasis in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients, 25 patients with clinical and vitro were paired controls who had treatment-responsive been observed similar time periods. After their first episode of candidiasis, later developed fluconazole resistance more treated episodes than did matched (cases, 3.1; controls, 1.8; P = .004), lower median CD4 cell counts (11/mm3 vs. 71/mm3; greater...
In a glucose-free bicarbonate Ringer (5% CO2 in N2), insulin increased intracellular pH (pHi), as determined by [14C]dimethadione, 0.12 +/- 0.02 and stimulated glycolysis, monitored anaerobic lactate production, 42.9 3.5% paired frog sartorius muscles. The effect of on glycolysis was shown to vary approximately linearly with log [Na+]0, being converted mM Na+ 51.5 8.4% inhibition glycolysis. As the free-energy gradient varied decreasing [Na+]0 from 104 6.8 mM, changes glycolytic flux...
1. Insulin increased the rate of net Na extrusion from Na‐loaded frog skeletal muscle into glucose‐free Na‐Ringer. After a 90 min period efflux, insulin‐treated muscles contained approximately 11% less intracellular water than did their controls. This decrease in resulted an increase concentration K, [K + ] i , even though there was no definite effect upon K flux. In spite water, [Na lower those treated with 500 m‐u. insulin/ml. 2. consistently 22 efflux Na‐Ringer containing either 10 or 2·5...
At a concentration that stimulates the Na pump, insulin hyperpolarizes plasma membrane of frog sartorius in presence substrate-free Ringer. The hyperpolarization ranged from 3.5 to 7.3 mV and averaged 4.7 mV. Ouabain, 10(-4) M, completely blocked effect on potential. Moreover, ouabain reversed insulin-induced within 20 min. produced by was not associated with detectable increase ratio K+ permeability Na+ nor intracellular K+, although depletion near external surface cannot be excluded....
Sulfation of tissue sections which contained nonmetachromatic polysaccharides was done in an equivolume mixture concentrated sulfuric acid and glacial acetic at 0°C. The were washed successively water. Aqueous solutions toluidine blue, 1.5 × 10-4 M, used for staining. procedure produced a metachromatic substrate sites previously nonmetachromatic. Normal metachromasy unaffected. There no loss, damage or distortion the sections.
In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease, neutropenia occurs most commonly in patients who are also severely immunosuppressed. It is not currently known whether an independent risk factor for the development of bacterial infection, which a potentially serious complication advanced HIV disease.We compared incidence infection between 118 neutropenic (absolute neutrophil count [ANC], < 1 x 10(9)/L) and nonneutropenic matched CD4+ lymphocyte count, use injecting drugs, follow-up time from...

A single inoculation of statolon into mice with established Friend virus (FV) leukemia can suppress the viral infection and produce a clinical remission lasting many months. Eventually, however, most develop characteristic FV leukemia. Persistence activity in spleens during be demonstrated by cell transfer histopathologic studies. Transfer to normal large number spleen cells (10(7)) from produces leukemia, small (10(2)) immunity challenge. Histopathologic examination reveals clusters...
