摘要:
The health of 75 NSW State Government members of parliament and 192 senior public servants who have undergone routine health check‐ups over the last seven years was assessed. It was found that 67% of members of parliament and 57% of senior public servants were overweight. Many overweight participants thought that their diets were average, their exercise and fitness adequate and that they were only a little overweight. Most thought their excess weight was not harmful. However, excess weight was found to be associated with other physiological variables including increased blood pressure, plasma cholesterol, triglyceride and urate levels.

摘要:
A retrospective study of outpatient casualty‐department attendances and inpatient hospital admissions for dog‐bite wounds was undertaken. Alsatians were the offending dog in 47% of 34 recorded cases. The majority of patients were young; 73% of patients were less than 30 years of age. The upper limb was bitten most frequently (53% of bites). Eleven per cent of dog‐bite wounds that were treated in casualty became infected. Upper limb and puncture wounds more often became infected. Prophylactic antibiotic treatment was associated with a 6% infection rate compared with an 18% infection rate in those who were not treated (not statistically significant;P>0.1). Patients of over the age of 45 years had a higher complication rate. All these findings are consistent with other published series. The infection rate was minimal when patients were admitted to hospital and their wounds debrided and closed by a consultant plastic surgeon. A plan for the management of dog‐bite wounds is outlined.

摘要:
A retrospective study was carried out of 116 consecutive patients with anorexia nervosa to ascertain the extent and nature of vegetarianism in this population. Sixty‐three (54.3%) patients were found to be avoiding red meat. In only four (6.3%) of these did meat avoidance predate the onset of their anorexia nervosa. Of the remaining 59 patients (best termed pseudovegetarians), 25 (42.4%) patients continued to avoid red meat by the end of treatment. Pseudovegetarianism was associated with a longer duration of anorexia nervosa, a lower weight during the course of their illness, and living away from the parental home. The réintroduction of red meat into the diet was more likely if vegetarianism were of a short duration.

摘要:
In a study of 1216 pregnancies, 427 (35%) patients reported hand symptoms. Symptoms of the same quality and distribution were reported by 40 (30%) of 132 control subjects within the previous year, and although invariably mild, these symptoms suggest that pregnancy may aggravate a pre‐existing condition. Fewer than 20% of the 427 affected patients described a classic median‐nerve symptom distribution (carpal tunnel syndrome), while 12% of patients described an ulnar‐nerve distribution, which is thought to represent a genuine and previously underestimated occurrence of ulnar‐nerve neuropathy in pregnancy. In 69% of patients, hand symptoms were generalized. Most symptoms were bilateral, commenced in the third trimester and resolved soon after delivery. There was a significant correlation of hand symptoms in pregnancy with the presence of preeclampsia, tight rings, the weight at confinement, the birth weight and a history of premenstrual bloating. Operative intervention was not required for any patient.
