摘要:

The Victorian refugee screening programme, in contrast to similar programmes elsewhere in Australia, includes an examination for faecal parasites. The results of such screening at Fairfield Infectious Diseases Hospital for the 16‐month period December 1, 1984–March 31, 1986 are presented. For most of the population groups that were studied, there was a high prevalence of intestinal parasites, which often warranted treatment. Additionally, marked differences were noted among the nationalities in the range of parasites that was detected. This information is of particular importance for those who are delivering health services to members of these different ethnic communities, especially in other states where screening is less comprehensive.

摘要:

The management of 745 impotent men is described. Assessment consisted of history‐taking, physical examination, biochemical screening, nocturnal penile tumescence studies and appropriate radiological studies. Based on the results of the nocturnal penile tumescence studies, impotence could then be classified as organic (52% of men), psychogenic (34% of men), mixed (11% of men) or of unknown aetiology (3% of men). Treatment options included: sexual counselling, hormonal replacement therapy, the intracavernosal injection of drugs to induce an artificial erection, ligation of the dorsal penile vein and penile implantation surgery.

摘要:

A new method of outpatient endometrial sampling — the Gynoscann — has been evaluated in a pilot study by comparing it with Vabra curettage. This method was well tolerated by patients, and produced samples that were similar to or better than those from Vabra curettage. We recommend that sampling by the Gynoscann be considered as the first investigation for abnormal uterine bleeding.

摘要:

We tested 54 reagents of human origin that were included in a number of diagnostic kits to be used as positive or negative control material, and for quality assurance, for the presence of antibodies to human immunodeficiency virus‐1 (HIV‐1). Of these, 12 (22%) reagents were found to give positive results for antibodies to HIV‐1 by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay and/or supplementary tests. These results suggest that some diagnostic reagents of human origin may be contaminated with HIV‐1 and potentially may be infectious.
