To the Editor.— In a recent issue of Pediatrics (1985;76:398-401), Bar-Maor and Govrin-Yehudain describe three children with Gaucher's disease who had a partial splenectomy for hypersplenism and mechanical problems. Neither hypersplenism nor massive splenomegaly recurred in clinical follow-up that was 4, 3, and ½ years, respectively. We warn that partial splenectomy in patients with Gaucher's disease may not always be so long-lasting. Hypersplenism and splenomegaly recurred in our patient within 9 months. Our patient was a 4-year-old girl with the diagnosis of type III Gaucher's disease which was made at 2 years of age.

AbstractNeurobiology-based interventions for mental diseases and searches for useful biomarkers of treatment response have largely failed. Clinical trials should assess interventions related to environmental and social stressors, with long-term follow-up; social rather than biological endpoints; personalized outcomes; and suitable cluster, adaptive, and n-of-1 designs. Labor, education, financial, and other social/political decisions should be evaluated for their impacts on mental disease.
