By attacking and ultimately destroying these cells, the virus causes a severe deficiency in cell-mediated immunity, rendering the host susceptible to a myriad of opportunistic infections and malignancies. HIV infection occurs in a continuum, ranging from the initial, acute retroviral illness to </span>florid<span><span> acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). At the present time, more than 500,000 Americans have been afflicted with AIDS. More than one million Americans are in pre-AIDS stages of their illness. In the United States, 15 to 20% of patients with HIV infection are women. Among women, the two most important risk factors for infection are IV drug use and heterosexual contact with a high-risk male. Factors that increase the risk of sexual transmission of HIV infection include multiple partners, receptive anal intercourse, concurrent use of IV drugs or crack cocaine, other STDs, intercourse during menses or in the presence of ulcerative genital lesions, and contact with an uncircumcised male. More than 90% of all cases of HIV infection in children result from direct perinatal transmission from an infected mother. Transplacental dissemination and </span>intrapartum transmission are the two most important mechanisms of </span></span>perinatal infection. HIV infection can also be transmitted by breastfeeding and by close personal contact following delivery. The risk of vertical transmission can be reduced significantly by treating HIV-infected patients and their neonates with antiviral chemotherapy. Because HIV infection is such a severe, and usually, fatal illness, great emphasis should be placed on preventive measures. Mental health professionals can play a pivotal role in the management of HIV-infected patients, particularly in helping them cope with the terminal stages of their illness.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":100909,"journal":{"name":"Medical Update for Psychiatrists","volume":"3 3","pages":"Pages 77-81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1082-7579(98)00004-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"137224651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chronic therapy with AEDs can cause vitamin, mineral, and bone metabolism disorders causing defects that can lead to symptomatic bone disease. The mechanism of development of these bone disorders is AED inhibition of intestinal calcium absorption and acceleration of conversion of vitamin D to nonbiologically active more polar metabolites by induced hepatic enzymes. These effects lead to decreased serum calcium, decreased circulating and tissue active vitamin D metabolite levels, decreased serum phosphate, increased PTH, and alterations in bone remodeling. Because patients are frequently treated for many years with AEDs, the risk for bone complications is often enhanced.

Patients at the extremes of age or with concomitant inhalation injury are at increased risk for complications and death from their thermal injuries. The initial management of thermal injuries continues to prioritize maintenance of the airway, breathing, and circulation with prompt consideration for transfer to a specialized burn care center. Early fluid resuscitation is best accomplished with an isotonic crystalloid solution to maintain tissue perfusion, hemodynamic stability and prevent remote organ failure. The necessary fluid volume is estimated from the patient's weight and percentage of body surface area burned and adjusted as determined by the patient's clinical response. Patients who have sustained an inhalation injury are at increased risk for pneumonia and require additional fluid resuscitation, meticulous pulmonary toilet and, occasionally, mechanical ventilation. Wound care following fluid resuscitation is based on topical antimicrobial therapy followed by early surgical excision and grafting to achieve wound closure and control infection. Adequate enterai nutrition is required to minimize the loss of lean body mass. Progressive improvements in the understanding of burn shock, early wound excision and closure, the control of infection, nutritional requirements and the treatment of inhalation injuries have significantly improved the survival of burn patients in recent years.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100909,"journal":{"name":"Medical Update for Psychiatrists","volume":"3 2","pages":"Pages 53-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1082-7579(97)00099-X","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75867975","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cardiovascular entities adversely affected by these two occupational characteristics (either alone or in combination) include hypertension, diastolic blood pressure, and coronary artery disease. Some studies challenge these hypotheses. Organism behavior may depend on both stimulus and individual capacity. Individual differences in emotional reactivity and defensiveness may relate to tension arousal and cardiovascular response to work. Enhanced tension arousal and adverse cardiovascular response may contribute to the origin and/or course of coronary artery disease. Definitive description of the relationship between job stress and cardiovascular disease awaits further large-scale studies. The influence of socioeconomic status may need to be considered to reach final resolution of this controversy. Clinicians need not wait until investigators have resolved all the controversies surrounding the relationship between job control and coronary heart disease before intervening.
