Disease relevance of New York

  • Use of the polymerase chain reaction for early detection of the proviral sequences of human immunodeficiency virus in infants born to seropositive mothers. New York City Collaborative Study of Maternal HIV Transmission and Montefiore Medical Center HIV Perinatal Transmission Study Group [1].
  • METHODS: In an area of New York where Lyme disease is hyperendemic we conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of treatment with a single 200-mg dose of doxycycline in 482 subjects who had removed attached I. scapularis ticks from their bodies within the previous 72 hours [2].
  • The lower mortality in the enalapril arm was attributable to a reduction in the incidence of sudden death, and this beneficial effect was more prominent in patients with less severe symptoms (New York Heart Association class I or II) [3].
  • The association between prenatal care and birth weight among women exposed to cocaine in New York City: a correction [4].
  • CONCLUSION: In this population of New York City women, breast cancer was strongly associated with DDE in serum but not with PCBs [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on New York

  • Two hundred and sixty-one intravenous (IV) drug users, distributed between a methadone maintenance program and a large detention facility in New York City, were interviewed about knowledge of AIDS, needle use practices, and risk-reduction efforts [6].
  • OBJECTIVE: To study prospectively injection behavior of injecting drug users (IDU) who did and did not utilize a local needle exchange in the Bronx, New York City. DESIGN: Since 1985, IDU attending a methadone maintenance program have been enrolled in a prospective study of HIV-related risk behaviors [7].
  • The activity of COMT in erythrocytes was determined in 184 outpatients with primary affective disorder at the Lithium Clinic of the New York State Psychiatric Institute. COMT activity was determined by a modification of the Axelrod and Cohn method with dopamine as substrate [8].
  • An open study was carried out in 17 acutely ill, newly admitted, floridly psychotic schizophrenic patients to a city hospital in New York. Penfluridol was given on a daily basis up to doses of 120 mg and patients were rated objectively by means of different psychometric evaluations; vital signs were monitored daily as were side effects [9].
  • Patterns of utilization of mental health facilities in the United States and in Monroe County, New York, by economic variables and/or by race, for periods spanning the Great Society programs, are descirbed [10].
 

High impact information on New York

  • METHODS: A total of 5010 patients with heart failure of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II, III, or IV were randomly assigned to receive 160 mg of valsartan or placebo twice daily [11].
  • Cocaine use, as measured by the detection of the metabolite benzoylecgonine in urine or blood, was found in 26.7 percent of all New York City residents receiving fatal injuries; free cocaine was detected in 18.3 percent [12].
  • All measures of functional capacity deteriorated in the patients receiving placebo as compared with those continuing to receive digoxin (P = 0.033 for maximal exercise tolerance, P = 0.01 for submaximal exercise endurance, and P = 0.019 for New York Heart Association class) [13].
  • From June 1990 through July 1991, intracerebral infection with the larval stage of the pork tapeworm Taenia solium was diagnosed in four unrelated persons in an Orthodox Jewish community in New York City. None of the patients had eaten pork, and only one had traveled to a country in which T. solium infection was endemic [14].
  • With a mean follow-up of seven months, the New York Heart Association Functional Class has been reduced from IV to II, and the number of days of hospitalization to less than 10 per cent of that before captopril therapy [15].

Biological context of New York

 

Anatomical context of New York

  • Fifty-five children with CID and known ADA status were studies at a workshop held in Albany, New York. Erythrocyte ADA determinations were performed in 22 of the 55 patients, 13 of whom were ADA negative [26].
  • Interview and dental examination data were gathered on 584 males with cancer of the oral cavity and on 1,222 control patients with nonneoplastic diseases at Roswell Park Memorial Institute, Buffalo, New York. No dietary characteristics distinguished cancer patients from controls [27].
  • This area contains a structure (Andrews, L. D., 1982, Freeze-fracture studies of vertebrate photoreceptors, In Structure of the Eye, J. G. Hollyfield and E. Acosta Vidrio, editors, Elsevier/North-Holland, New York, 11-23) that resembles the active zones of the nerve terminals for the frog neuromuscular junction [28].
  • The ouabain-resistant cell line H1C1 displays a 30-fold differential of reduced sensitivity to the structurally related cardiac glycosides digoxin and digitoxin (Baker, R. M. (1976) in Biogenesis and Turnover of Membrane Macromolecules (Cook, J.S., ed) pp. 93-103, Raven Press, New York) [29].
  • This correlation was independent of age, gender, body mass index, body fat, ejection fraction, New York Heart Association functional class, pulmonary function, plasma norepinephrine, angiotensin II, brain natriuretic peptide levels, and medications [30].
 

Associations of New York with chemical compounds

  • We also determined the population-based rates of fatal injuries that were known to follow cocaine use and the proportion of all deaths of New York City residents that was represented by these cases for each demographic stratum [12].
  • Potassium iodide: policy in New York [31].
  • The transit of an air mass containing radioactive gas released from the Three Mile Island reactor was recorded in Albany, New York, by measuring xenon-133 [32].

  • Consecutive patients (n = 660) with breast cancer from the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) and healthy females (n = 880) from New York City were genotyped for the hypomorphic TGFBR1*6A allele and for the TGFB1 T29C variant that results in increased TGF-beta circulating levels [35].
  • METHODS: Circulating levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and soluble TNF receptors (types 1 and 2), as well as interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-6 receptor were measured on a daily, weekly and monthly basis in heart failure patients (New York Heart Association class IIIa and IIIb; n = 10) and healthy volunteer subjects (n = 10) [36].
  • In this study, the abilities to inhibit IFN signaling of two closely related West Nile viruses, the New York 99 strain (NY99) and Kunjin virus (KUN), strain MRM61C, were analyzed using reporter plasmid assays, as well as immunofluorescence and Western blot analyses [37].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of New York

  • RESULTS--Multidrug-resistant M tuberculosis isolates were recovered from 253 New York City patients and had the same or closely allied IS6110 and PGRS patterns, multiplex PCR type, and gene mutations associated with resistance to rifampin, isoniazid, and streptomycin [40].
  • METHODS: We analyzed sera from the stored blood specimens of 14,290 participants enrolled between 1985 and 1991 in the New York University Women's Health Study, a prospective cohort study of hormones, diet, and cancer [5].
  • Antibodies against HTLV-related antigens were assayed by means of indirect living cell immunofluorescence of HTLV-infected cells in sera recently collected from Georgia haemophiliacs and in sera collected between 1976 and 1981 from New York haemophiliacs [41].
  • The patient, a 33-year-old man (90 kg, blood type O) with idiopathic cardiomyopathy, experienced end-organ heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] class IV) while he was awaiting heart transplantation [42].
