												Blood Plasma Bromide Levels in Bromoderma' Lester W
BLOOD PLASMA BROMIDE LEVELS IN BROMODERMA' LESTER W. KIMBERLY, M.D.2 (Received for publication May 16, 1939) The ordinary cutaneous manifestations of bromide eruptions are well known. Numerous reports have appeared in the litera- ture supporting various theories as to the development of cutane- ous lesions due to bromides but practically no one has studied the plasma bromide levels with relation to bromoderma. Hanes and Yates (1) found approximately 0.9 per cent of the total admissions to Duke Hospital had increased amounts of bromide in their plasma. They also found that 28 per cent of 64 patients with blood serum bromides above 200 mgm. had bromoderma. The percentage of patients with significantly elevated plasma bromides is even higher among patients admitted to psychopathic hospitals. Szadek (2) believed that the cutaneous eruption originated from an irritation of the sebaceous glands. Laudenheimer (3) and Von Wyss (4) thought that the ingestion of bromide led to a gradual retention of the drug in the tissues and the replacement of the chloride. Engman and Mook (5) felt that the lesions were more apt to occur at the site of previous inflammation and that trauma might play a part, thereby explaining the predilection of a bromoderma for old seborrheic or acne areas. Wile (6) stated that he was unable to demonstrate the drug in the content of the lesions and he believed that it was not present unless there was an admixture of blood serum. Bloch and Tenchio (7) considered bromoderma to be an idiosyncratic phenome- non of the skin and mucous membranes brought about by sensitization. -

Mounier 73, 1200 Brussels, Belgium * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 29 September 2020; Accepted: 23 October 2020; Published: 29 October 2020 Abstract: Superficial bacterial infections, such as dermatological, burn wound and chronic wound/ulcer infections, place great human and financial burdens on health systems globally and are often complicated by antibiotic resistance. Bacteriophage (phage) therapy is a promising alternative antimicrobial strategy with a 100-year history of successful application. Here, we report a systematic review of the safety and efficacy of phage therapy for the treatment of superficial bacterial infections. Three electronic databases were systematically searched for articles that reported primary data about human phage therapy for dermatological, burn wound or chronic wound/ulcer infections secondary to commonly causative bacteria. Two authors independently assessed study eligibility and performed data extraction. Of the 27 eligible reports, eight contained data on burn wound infection (n = 156), 12 on chronic wound/ulcer infection (n = 327) and 10 on dermatological infections (n = 1096). -

6728 Old McLean Village Drive, McLean, VA 22101 Tel: 571.488.6000 Fax: 703.556.8729 www.clintox.org Date: 1/9/2017 Question: Botulism is an uncommon disorder caused by toxins produced by Clostridium botulinum. Seven subtypes of botulinum toxin exist (subtypes A, B, C, D, E, F and G). Which subtypes have been noted to cause human disease and which ones have been reported to cause infant botulism specifically in the United States? Answer: According to the cited reference “Only subtypes A, B, E and F cause disease in humans, and almost all cases of infant botulism in the United States are caused by subtypes A and B. Botulinum-like toxins E and F are produced by Clostridium baratii and Clostridium butyricum and are only rarely implicated in infant botulism” (Rosow RK and Strober JB. Infant botulism: Review and clinical update. 2015 Pediatr Neurol 52: 487-492) Date: 1/10/2017 Question: A variety of clinical forms of botulism have been recognized. These include wound botulism, food borne botulism, and infant botulism. What is the most common form of botulism reported in the United States? Answer: According to the cited reference, “In the United States, infant botulism is by far the most common form [of botulism], constituting approximately 65% of reported botulism cases per year. Outside the United States, infant botulism is less common.” (Rosow RK and Strober JB. Infant botulism: Review and clinical update. 2015 Pediatr Neurol 52: 487-492) Date: 1/11/2017 Question: Which foodborne pathogen accounts for approximately 20 percent of bacterial meningitis in individuals older than 60 years of age and has been associated with unpasteurized milk and soft cheese ingestion? Answer: According to the cited reference, “Listeria monocytogenes, a gram-positive rod, is a foodborne pathogen with a tropism for the central nervous system.
