Heart failure is a clinical syndrome, resulting in increased intracardiac pressure and/or decreased cardiac output under rest or stress. In acute decompensated heart failure, volume assessment is essential for clinical diagnosis and management. More and more evidence shows the advantages of bioimpedance vector analysis in this issue. Here, we critically present a brief review of bioimpedance vector analysis in the prediction and management of heart failure to give a reference to clinical physicians and guideline makers.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is recognized as a leading cause of acquired heart disease in children in developed countries. Although global in distribution, Japan records the highest incidence of KD in the world. Epidemiological reports from the two most populous countries in the world, namely China and India, indicate that KD is now being increasingly recognized. Whether this increased reporting is due to increased ascertainment, or is due to a true increase in incidence, remains a matter of conjecture. The diagnosis and management of KD in developing countries is a challenging proposition. In this review we highlight some of the difficulties faced by physicians in managing children with KD in resource-constrained settings.

The Division of Graduate Medicine, Tulane University School of Medicine, will sponsor a postgraduate course in immunology and allergy in pediatrics on February 12-16, 1962. In response to repeated requests by previous registrants, this "subspecialty course" for pediatricians has been planned to provide comprehensive instruction in the fundamentals of immunology, with their application to practical clinical diagnosis and management of the "common" allergic disorders as well as various other diseases with conspicuous immunologic relationships. As usual, instruction will consist of lectures, amphitheatre clinics, ward rounds and round table conferences, with participation of many faculty members from all related and pertinent disciplines.

Nose And Throat

This chapter covers the essential background and clinical management of ear, nose, and throat conditions as seen in humanitarian settings. It provides essential guidance on disorders of the ear, nose, and throat, including congenital, infectious, neoplastic, or acquired conditions, with special attention to paediatric problems, and guides the reader through clinical diagnosis and management in low-resource humanitarian settings.
