ZusammenfassungDie Gorham-Stout-Erkrankung (Gorham-Stout-Disease / GSD) ist charakterisiert durch eine spontane, massive, in der Regel monozentrische Osteolyse, häufig koinzident mit einer lokalen Proliferation kleiner Blut- und/oder Lymphgefäße. Als eigenständige Entität wurde das Krankheitsbild erstmals 1954 beschrieben. Die Erkrankung ist mit etwa 200 in der Literatur beschriebenen Fällen sehr selten und ihre Pathogenese ist bis heute weitestgehend unklar. Diskutiert wird eine Hämangio-/Lymphangiomatose mit konsekutiver Zerstörung des Knochens sowie eine osteoklastäre Überstimulation mit reaktiver, meist von vaskulären Strukturen durchsetzter fibröser Proliferation. Ausgangspunkt können grundsätzlich alle Skelettbereiche sein mit progredientem, auch gelenkübergreifendem Befall benachbarter Knochenund Weichteilstrukturen. Prädilektionsstellen sind der Schultergürtel, das Becken sowie der Kieferbereich. Die Symptome treten oft erst spät auf und sind eher unspezifisch mit uncharakteristischen Schmerzen, Schwellungen oder pathologischen Frakturen. Die Diagnose wird anhand der klinischen, laborchemischen, radiologischen und histopathologischen Befunde nach Ausschluss anderer Ursachen einer lokalen Osteolyse gestellt. Ein etabliertes Therapieverfahren existiert nicht. Wiederholt angewandte Maßnahmen sind die Strahlentherapie und die Gabe von Interferon α-2b zur Unterbindung der vaskulären Proliferationen, Bisphosphonate und Vitamin D zur Stabilisierung des Knochens sowie chirurgische Verfahren zur Entfernung der Läsionen und funktionellen Rekonstruktion. Die prognostische Bandbreite reicht von spontanem Sistieren der Erkrankung bis hin zu komplikativen Verläufen mit hoher Letalität.

Here two Nipah outbreaks in greater Faridpur district in 2003 and 2004 are described along with brief review on transmission of the virus. Where the history of illness among patients are very much in favour of man to man transmission. Moreover the death of an intern doctor from Nipah encephalitis who was involved in managing such patients in Faridpur Medical College Hospital strongly suggests man to man transmission of this virus.

Legionnaire’S Disease

There are some striking similarities between Legionnaire’s disease and COVID-19. Thesymptoms, age group and sex at risk are identical. The geographical distribution of both diseases is similar in Europe overall, and within the USA, France and Italy. The environmental distributions are also similar. However Legionnaire’s disease is caused by Legionella bacteria while COVID-19 is caused by the Corona virus. Whereas COVID-19 is contagious, Legionnaire’s disease is environmental. Legionella bacteria are commonly found in drinking water systems and near air conditioning cooling towers. Legionnaire’sdisease is caught by inhaling contaminated water droplets. The Legionella bacteria does not spread person to person and only causes disease if it enters the lungs.Could the Corona virus be making it easier for Legionella bacteria to enter the lungs?

The Impact

The history of human society is replete with examples of advances in technology overrunning the ability of societal organizations to efficiently handle the resulting massive societal dislocations. The social impacts of the “Industrial Revolution of the 18th and 19th Centuries” illustrate how profound such effects can be. The automation-computer-robotics revolution now underway also has the potential for serious societal changes. In this regard public works activities are subject to increasing amounts of automation with impacts upon current and net total employment and training needs. To evaluate the present status of automation in the USA, questionnaires were sent to public works authorities in 110 cities or agencies. The current degree of automation, the impact upon employment and the skills now needed by public works employers were queried. It was found that in most cases automation was just starting; but that as complete automation as was possible was inevitable given the increasing complexity of the tasks, the demands of the public and the long term prospects for public works funding. In many cases the candidates now in the work force were not properly trained for automation needs. Retraining and changes in the educational system appeared necessary if the employees now needed were to be continuously available. Public works management as well as several labor organizations appeared to be aware of this need and were organizing to handle the training problem and the changes in employment qualifications now necessary. It appeared to be a consensus that the larger societal effects of automation should be handled by society as a whole.
