  • Syphilis As Seen by a Hospital Physician
    284 Prof. Monro?Syphilis as seen by a Hospital Physician. SYPHILIS AS SEEN BY A HOSPITAL PHYSICIAN* By T. K. MONRO, M.A., M.D., Professor of Medicine, University of Glasgow. \ " / Mr. President and Gentlemen,?I thank you heartily for the honour you have done me in inviting me to be Honorary President of this Faculty for the session which is now opening. I was duly informed by Dr. Wardlaw that my principal duty as incumbent of this honourable office was to deliver an address to the Faculty, and as his invitation reached me while I was on holiday, with other objects in view, I had time to contemplate the responsibility I had undertaken, and to consider how I was to face it. In getting over the usual initial difficulty as to the choice of a subject, some assistance was afforded me by the President's instruction that the address ought to be one for the general practitioner. Quite a number of subjects would be appropriate from this point of view. I should have been glad to say some- thing on oral sepsis, a condition often spoken of, and no doubt often wrongly blamed, but also apt to be overlooked. Dentists do not always realise how completely one may be misled by the absence of subjective and objective evidence; so that even an experienced man may pass as innocuous a tooth which subse- quent extraction shows to have disease at its root. Medical men sometimes make a mistake in the opposite direction, by insisting, without sufficient justification, on the removal of teeth, e.g., in epileptiform neuralgia.

Primary systemic vasculitides are rare diseases that may manifest similarly to more commonly encountered conditions. Depending on the size of the vessel affected (large vessel, medium vessel, or small vessel), different vasculitis mimics must be considered. Establishing the right diagnosis of a vasculitis mimic will prevent unnecessary immunosuppressive therapy. 1. Introduction 2.

The detection of poxviruses by electron microscopy (EM) and immunohistochemical staining (IHC) is performed by the Infectious Disease Pathology Branch of the CDC. 2. EDTA — Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. 3. CSF — Cerebrospinal fluid. 4. In order to accurately interpret test results generated from CSF specimens, paired serum must also be submitted. 5. If media is used to store and transport specimens a minimal amount should be used to ensure as little dilution of DNA as possible. 6. Orthopoxvirus generic real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays will amplify DNA from numerous species of virus within the Orthopoxvirus genus. Species-specific real-time PCR assays are available for selective detection of DNA from variola virus, vaccinia virus, monkeypox virus, and cowpox virus. 7. Blood is not ideal for the detection of orthopoxviruses by PCR as the period of viremia has often passed before sampling occurs. 8. EM can reveal the presence of a poxvirus in clinical specimens or from virus culture, but this technique cannot differentiate between virus species within the same genus.
