Cases of thallium poisonings are regularly reported in media. In the present work, the world experience in diagnostics and treatment of victims with thallium poisoning has been compiled and summarized, search for clinical guidelines for the diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation of patients has been carried out. The toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics, as well as pathophysiological mechanisms of thallium influence on the body are described in detail. Toxic and lethal concentrations of poison in biological media, as well as its tropicity to various tissues and body systems were determined. The clinical picture depending on the timing of poisoning and the dose of poison is described in detail. Difficulties of the differential diagnosis are defined. The most interesting cases of criminal and household poisonings with various terms of establishment of the diagnosis, doses of poisoning and outcomes are presented.

Clinical Picture

The peculiarities of the clinical picture and diagnosis of uncoronarogenic lesions of the myocardium in a period of 5 years are studied. The differential diagnosis of cardiomyopathies and myocardial dystrophies is performed, emphasizing the informativity of contrast and transesophageal echocardiography. Registration of electrocardiographic and echocardiographic data allows to choose among patients the persons demanding the expanding cardiologic examination that provides early diagnosis of latent forms of cardiomyopathies.

Symptoms Of Depression

AbstractMany endocrine disorders present with symptoms of depression, thus differentiating primary depressive disorders from such endocrine conditions can be challenging. Awareness of the typical clinical picture of endocrine disorders is of primary importance. This article discusses a variety of common and uncommon endocrine disorders and the symptomatology that might suggest a depressive illness, and reviews literature on how endocrinopathies can mimic depression. Emphasis is also placed on the role that stress can play in the pathogenesis of endocrine disorders. Psychiatrists should be familiar with the range of presenting symptoms for endocrine disorders, and they should not rely on the presence or absence of stressors to guide their differential diagnosis between depression and endocrine disorder.

Before Sjaastad coined the term cervicogenic headache (CH) 15 years ago, neck-related headaches have been considered by different authors for many years. Even after the publication of diagnostic criteria, dispute on the clinical picture, differential diagnosis, pathophysiology and treatment of CH still persists. A paper published in 1949 by Josey reports on 6 "illustrative" cases of cervical-related headaches. Indeed, looked from a more recent perspective, those cases could eventually correspond to CH. Important topics such as the relatively high frequency, fixed unilaterality of the pain, relation to previous trauma, irradiation from the back to the forehead, normal or slightly abnormal roentgenograms, and the mechanical precipitation of attacks are some of the topics considered by Josey. The female gender was not prevalent in Josey's series. Traction and analgesics were basically the recommended treatment. CH is probably a common disorder, an idea already considered by a clinician in 1949. This syndrome was not adequately described before Sjaastad's group papers in the 80's.

Abstract: Normal sexual function is a bio-psycho-social process which is significantly related to the quality of life (QOL). Any disturbance in one of the components can be a disaster in sexual life.  Erectile dysfunction is a disability to get an erection or to maintain the erection well enough for a sexual intercourse, which persists or recurs at least three months conse-cutively due to either psychogenic or organic disturbances, or both. Some psychogenic dis-turbances especially depression, anxiety, and relational distress, play some important roles in ED. Besides that, aging, low testoteron level, physical diseases, and some certain medicines have to be included. Key words: erection, erectile dysfunction, sexual stimulus, depression.     Abstract: Fungsi seksual yang normal merupakan suatu proses biopsikososial yang berkaitan langsung dengan kualitas hidup. Adanya gangguan pada salah satu komponen dapat menjadi malapetaka bagi kehidupan seksual. Disfungsi ereksi dapat dedefinisikan sebagai suatu keti-dakmampuan untuk ereksi atau mempertahankan ereksi yang cukup untuk melakukan hu-bungan seksual yang memuaskan, yang menetap atau berulang paling tidak selama tiga bulan berturut-turut. Gangguan psikogenik khususnya sindroma depresi, ankietas, dan distres relasional berperan penting dalam hal terjadinya disfungsi ereksi. Disamping itu usia lanjut, rendahnya kadar testoteron, penyakit fisik, dan beberapa jenis obat perlu diperhitungkan. Kata kunci: fisiologi ereksi, disfungsi ereksi, stimulus seksual, depresi.

We studied the clinical characteristics of brucellosis among all patients with brucellosis referred to the Central Health Laboratory from the main hospitals in Sana’a during a 2-year period [1992-93] [235 adults and children]. A history was taken from each patient and clinical examination, general laboratory tests and brucellosis laboratory tests carried out. The overall clinical picture of brucellosis in this study is very similar to that reported by other workers in this geographical area. Awareness of the presenting features and the realization that brucellosis should be part of the differential diagnosis of febrile patients with enlarged liver, spleen and lymph nodes will lead to an increasing index of suspicion for this disease.

Progressive Weakness

Two cases of siblings with glycogen storage disease of the heart are reported. The clinical picture was characterized by progressive weakness, areflexia, and susceptibility to secondary infections. There was also progressive hepatomegaly and cardiomegaly. The pathologic findings correlated well with the clinical and were characterized by marked glycogen storage in skeletal, heart, and smooth muscle, the liver, and nerve cells of the central and autonomic nervous systems. In addition, many other tissues showed some glycogen storage. Storage in the skeletal muscle was so marked as to result in degeneration of the muscle fibers. The familial aspect of this disease is again noted. Suggestions regarding differential diagnosis are made.
