Students, faculty, and staff at California Institute of the Arts also got hit with the Norovirus within the past few days. Dozens went to the ER. The cafeteria and now the school is shut down. Wonder if there is a connection with the food services of the two schools?

By Curt firstname.lastname@example.com Linda Mosley-Jones' interest in economics began a few year ago when gas prices surpassed $3 per gallon, and then $4 per gallon. Mosley-Jones, who teaches second-graders at Church Street Elementary School in Riverdale, has also taken notice of the nation's foreclosure crisis, and the faltering economy. She said she decided to use the economics section of the Georgia Performance Standards teaching guidelines for her grade level to get her children to understand what was going on. Her efforts, which have included turning her classroom into a miniature economic hub with "grocery" stores, a classroom store, and an economic word wall, led the Georgia Council on Economic Education to name Mosley-Jones as its 2009 Georgia Economics Teacher of the Year. The 18-year teaching veteran received the news from Church Street Principal Debra Smith earlier this month. "I was pleasantly surprised," Mosley-Jones said. "I felt I could have won, but you never know what the other teachers are doing." Mosley-Jones will be recognized by the Georgia Council on Economic Education during a May 13 luncheon, which will begin with a video presentation on the work she does with her students, according to a March 4 letter sent to the teacher by David Martin, the council's executive director. "Your contributions to economic education in Georgia are valued highly, and we are delighted to be able to recognize you in this manner," Martin said in the letter. Mosley-Jones has her students do several economics-themed activities, including breaking the classroom into two teams, to play a game of economic Tic-tac-toe, where each team gets to mark a spot on the playing board every time they correctly answer an economics question. She also wrote two economics songs for her students to sing in class. One is about scarcity and supply and demand, set to the tune of "O Christmas Tree." The other is a song, set to the tune of "If You're Happy and You Know It, Clap Your Hands," about living within one's means. Mosley-Jones said her goal is to get students to understand what an economic system is, and the financial situations their parents are dealing with on a daily basis. She said she pulls inspiration for her activities from concepts in the state's performance standards, and the school system's economics curriculum book. "I want them to be better life learners who are able to manage fiscal affairs," Mosley-Jones said. Mosley-Jones also uses economics to keep discipline under control in her classroom. She gives "Kiddie Bucks" to students every time they follow classroom rules. The youths can use their "Kiddie Bucks" to purchase small items, like rulers, pens and pencils on Fridays. The students can also put their "Kiddie Bucks" into simulated safe deposit boxes so they will be available at a later date. "Some of them don't want to spend a lot of money in case something big comes up later on," Mosley-Jones said. Second-graders Karen Heng and Camera Gregg, both 8, and Ethan Voraotsady, 7, said they have learned several things about economics, such as the vocabulary involved in economics, and how purchasing works, through Mosley-Jones' activities in the classroom. "We read books about economics and sometimes say the words, and we read the word wall," Heng said. "She's taught us long words like 'producers' and 'consumers,'" Gregg said. Gregg said she wants to grow up and become an economist because of her teacher, so she can "teach other kids how to count money." Voraotsady said he has learned about what is involved in buying items from a store. "When you're doing the cash register, you have to count the money to see how much money to give back," he said. Clayton County Elementary Social Studies Coordinator Robert DeLuca said he was thrilled about Mosley-Jones being named the economics teacher of the year, and applauded her efforts to teach financial concepts to children using real-life events as examples. "She's very dedicated, and she actually knows how to make rather sophisticated concepts appropriate for children," DeLuca said.

Article: Disability and quality-of-life are not influenced by the prevalence of autoantibodies in early rheumatoid arthritis patients - results of the Brasília Cohort.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: Although many studies have suggested that the presence of autoantibodies, such as rheumatoid factor (RF) and/or anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are predictors of joint damage, the association with disability and quality of life questionnaires are not known. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the correlation between the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) and the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) scores with serological markers, such as RF, anti-CCP, and anti-citrullinated vimentin (anti-Sa). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Sixty five patients with early RA (ERA) from the Brasília Cohort of ERA were evaluated. Serology tests (ELISA) for RF (IgM, IgG, and IgA), anti-CCP (CCP2, CCP3, and CCP3.1), and anti-Sa were performed, with the application of the HAQ and SF-36 questionnaires in the initial evaluation. RESULTS: The mean age was 45 years, with a female predominance (86%). At the initial evaluation, RF was positive in 32 individuals (49.23%), anti-CCP in 34 (52.3%), and anti-Sa in nine (13.8%). The initial HAQ score was 1.8. The SF-36 scores were as follow: role-emotional, 19.3; social functioning, 43.1; bodily pain, 25.43; general health, 57.6; mental health, 48.1; vitality, 49.5; role-physical, 4.6; and physical functioning, 24.7. The HAQ and SF-36 scores did not vary with autoantibody levels. CONCLUSION: In many patients, ERA has a major impact on physical ability and health-related quality of life. Although RF and anti-CCP tests have been related with joint destruction and worse clinical prognosis, there is no correlation with the results of questionnaires of quality of life and disability.Revista Brasileira de Reumatologia 12/2012; 52(6):824-829.

Article: Third generation anti-citrullinated peptide antibody assay is a sensitive marker in rheumatoid factor negative rheumatoid arthritis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: We compared 2 anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) assays using a routine patient cohort. METHODS: Two-hundred ninety-five sera were collected from patients for whom ACPA was ordered and tested for ACPA by QUANTA Lite® CCP 3 (INOVA Diagnostics, Inc., San Diego) and EliA® CCP (CCP, Phadia, Germany). Rheumatoid factor (RF) was determined using Quantex RF(II) (Biokit, Spain). RESULTS: Acceptable qualitative (96.6%, kappa=0.93) and quantitative agreements (Spearman rho=0.77; p<0.0001) were observed between the two ACPA assays. Nine samples were CCP3+/CCP2- and one sample was CCP2+/CCP3-. Of the 9 CCP3+/CCP2- patients, 6 (66.7%) had RA, one patient had ankylosing spondylitis, one osteoarthritis and one psoriatic arthritis. The CCP3-/CCP2+ patient had juvenile RA. At the manufacturer's cut-offs, the sensitivities and specificities were 77.3/98.1% (CCP2), 81.6%/96.8% (CCP3) and 65.2%/89.6% (RF), respectively. At 98.7% specificity level, the sensitivities in the total cohort were 59.6% (CCP2) and 69.5% (CCP3) while the sensitivities in the RF-negative group were 49.0 (CCP2) and 57.1% (CCP3). In the RF-negative group, sensitivities for patients with a disease duration of ≤5years were 38.7% (CCP2) and 51.6% (CCP3). CONCLUSION: Discrimination between RA and non-RA patients was better using CCP3, most pronounced in RF-negative RA.Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry 09/2012; 414.

Article: IgM autoantibodies to distinct apoptosis-associated antigens correlate with protection from cardiovascular events and renal disease in patients with SLE.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Emerging evidence suggests that there are IgM-autoantibodies that may play protective roles in SLE. While IgM are often considered polyreactive, we postulate that there are distinct sets of IgM-autoantibodies of defined autoreactive specificities relevant to different features of SLE. We examined the relationships between levels of IgM natural autoantibodies (NAbs) to apoptosis-associated phosphorylcholine (PC) or malondialdehyde (MDA) antigens, with lupus-associated autoantibodies and features of disease, in 120 SLE patients. IgM anti-PC was significantly higher in patients with low disease activity and less organ damage determined by the SELENA-SLEDAI, the physician's evaluation and the SLICC damage score. Furthermore, IgM anti-PC was significantly higher in patients without cardiovascular events. In contrast, IgM anti-cardiolipin and IgM anti-dsDNA were significantly higher in patients without renal disease. These results support the hypothesis that some IgM autoantibodies are part of a natural immune repertoire that provide homeostatic functions and protection from certain clinical lupus features.Clinical Immunology 03/2012; 142(3):390-8.

Article: Coexistence of anti-RNA polymerase III and anti-U1RNP antibodies in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: two cases without features of scleroderma[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Anti-RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) antibodies are highly specific for scleroderma (SSc) and associated with diffuse SSc and renal crisis. Coexistence of anti-RNAP III and other SSc autoantibodies is rarely documented. We report three cases with coexisting anti-RNAP III and anti-U1RNP. Autoantibodies in 3829 sera from rheumatology clinics were screened by immunoprecipitation. Anti-RNAP III-positive sera were also examined by immunofluorescence and anti-RNAP III ELISA. In total, 35 anti-RNAP III-positive sera were identified by immunoprecipitation, in which three had coexisting anti-U1RNP. All three were anti-RNAP III ELISA positive. Two had anti-RNAP I dominant (vs. RNAP III) reactivity and showed strong nucleolar staining. A case with anti-U1/U2RNP (U2RNP dominant) had systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)-SSc overlap syndrome; however, the remaining two cases had SLE without signs of SSc. All three cases of anti-RNAP III + U1RNP fulfilled ACR SLE criteria but none in the group with anti-RNAP III alone (p = 0.0002). In contrast, only one case in the former group had sclerodermatous skin changes and Raynaud's phenomenon, vs. 92% with scleroderma in the latter (p < 0.05). Although anti-RNAP III is highly specific for SSc, cases with coexisting anti-U1RNP are not so uncommon among anti-RNAP III positives (8%, 3/35) and may be SLE without features of SSc.Lupus 01/2012; 21(1):68-74.

Article: Baseline HAQ and SF-36 questionnaire scores cannot predict clinical remission, radiographic progression or the need for biological therapy in a three-year prospective study of a Brazilian early rheumatoid arthritis cohort[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This study evaluates prospectively whether baseline scores [Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) and SF-36] can predict clinical and radiographic evolution in a cohort of early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) during a 3-year follow-up. Forty consecutive early RA patients were followed for 3 years, while receiving standardized treatment according to a pre-established protocol. HAQ and SF-36 were administered at the initial evaluation and at 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months. Hands and feet radiographs were obtained at the initial evaluation and at 12, 24 and 36 months. Preselected outcomes were the occurrence of radiographic erosions, the achievement of an EULAR remission, low disease activity status and the need for biological therapy. The mean age at onset was 45 years with a 90% female predominance. Erosions were found in 42% of patients at T0 and in 70% after 3 years (P < 0.001). At T0, the proportion of patients in remission, low, moderate or high disease activity was 0, 0, 7.5 and 92.5% and 22.5, 7.5, 32.5 and 37.5%, respectively, at 3 years. The mean baseline HAQ score was 1.89 and 0.77 by the third year (P < 0.0001). Most SF-36 domains showed significant improvement except for general state and vitality. Biological therapy was deemed necessary in 22.5% of patients. The initial HAQ and SF-36 scores were not associated with clinical remission, bone erosions or the need for biological therapy at 36 months. The HAQ and SF-36 scores measured at baseline could not predict at 3 years, the preselected outcomes in a Brazilian cohort.Rheumatology International 12/2011; 32(12).

Article: The presence of anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and rheumatoid factor on patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) does not interfere with the chance of clinical remission in a follow-up of 3 years[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Autoantibodies in early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have important diagnostic value. The association between the presence of autoantibodies against cyclic citrullinated peptide and the response to treatment is controversial. To prospectively evaluate a cohort of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (<12 months of symptoms) in order to determine the association between serological markers (rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-citrullinated protein antibodies) such as anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP) and citrullinated anti-vimentin (anti-Sa) with the occurrence of clinical remission, forty patients diagnosed with early RA at the time of diagnosis were evaluated and followed for 3 years, in use of standardized therapeutic treatment. Demographic and clinical data were recorded, disease activity score 28 (DAS 28), as well as serology tests (ELISA) for RF (IgM, IgG, and IgA), anti-CCP (CCP2, CCP3, and CCP3.1) and anti-Sa in the initial evaluation and at 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36 months of follow-up. The outcome evaluated was the percentage of patients with clinical remission, which was defined by DAS 28 lower than 2.6. Comparisons were made through the Student t test, mixed-effects regression analysis, and analysis of variance (significance level of 5%). The mean age was 45 years, and a female predominance was observed (90%). At the time of diagnosis, RF was observed in 50% of cases (RF IgA-42%, RF IgG-30%, and RF IgM-50%), anti-CCP in 50% (no difference between CCP2, CCP3, and CCP3.1) and anti-Sa in 10%. After 3 years, no change in the RF prevalence and anti-CCP was observed, but the anti-Sa increased to 17.5% (P = 0.001). The percentage of patients in remission, low, moderate, and intense disease activity, according to the DAS 28, was of 0, 0, 7.5, and 92.5% (initial evaluation) and 22.5, 7.5, 32.5, and 37.5% (after 3 years). There were no associations of the presence of autoantibodies in baseline evaluation and in serial analysis with the percentage of clinical remission during follow-up of 3 years The presence of autoantibodies in early RA has no predictive value for clinical remission in early RA.Rheumatology International 12/2011; 32(12).

Article: Measurement of Autoantibodies in Pediatric-Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Their Relationship with Disease-Associated Manifestations[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To evaluate an autoantibody profile in pediatric-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients to determine clinical and statistical associations with disease-associated manifestations. Sera from 53 SLE patients and 22 healthy individuals were collected. Antibodies to C1q, histone, chromatin, ribosomal P, dsDNA, and high-avidity dsDNA were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Patient records were evaluated for clinical and laboratory associations. The most prevalent autoantibodies found in the SLE cohort were anti-C1q antibodies (n = 32, 60%), which correlated significantly with proteinuria and decreased complement levels (P < 0.05). Anti-C1q and antihistone antibodies were significantly elevated in patients with class III/IV nephritis compared with class I/II/V nephritis (P = 0.041). SLE patients with active nephritis at the time of sample collection demonstrated significantly elevated levels of anti-C1q antibodies compared with those without active nephritis, also exhibiting 100% sensitivity for active nephritis, proteinuria, and urinary casts. Antibodies to C1q, dsDNA, histone, and chromatin were significantly elevated in patients with active disease (P < 0.01). Chart-documented anti-dsDNA antibodies were positive in 28 SLE patients, INOVA anti-dsDNA antibodies in 25 patients, and high-avidity anti-dsDNA antibodies in 8 patients. Antihistone correlated significantly with leukopenia and hemolytic anemia (P < 0.05). This study indicates the importance of measuring anti-C1q antibodies in pediatric-onset SLE patients because elevated anti-C1q antibodies may be more indicative of renal disease activity, showing significant correlation with proteinuria, urinary casts, and active nephritis. Antibodies to C1q, histone, chromatin, and dsDNA exhibited the strongest association with clinical features, indicating the importance of measuring all of these antibodies in pediatric-onset SLE patients.Seminars in arthritis and rheumatism 12/2011; 41(6):840-8.

Article: Autoantibodies in early rheumatoid arthritis: Brasília cohort: results of a three-year serial analysis.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The diagnostic and prognostic value of the serial measurement of antibodies, such as rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP), and anti-citrullinated vimentin (anti-Sa) antibodies, has not been defined in early rheumatoid arthritis (ERA). To prospectively assess the presence of RF, anti-CCP, and anti-Sa in ERA patients. Forty ERA (less than 12 months) patients of the Brasília cohort were evaluated and followed up for three years. Both clinical and demographic data were recorded, in addition to the results (ELISA) of RF (IgM, IgG, and IgA), anti-CCP (CCP2, CCP3, and CCP3.1), and anti-Sa at the baseline assessment and after 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 and 36 months of follow-up. The results were compared by use of Student t test and paired t test. The patients' mean age was 45 years, and 90% of them were female. At the time of diagnosis, RF was identified in 50% of the patients (RF IgA, 42%; RF IgG, 30%; and RF IgM, 50%), anti-CCP in 52.5% (no difference between CCP2, CCP3, and CCP3.1), and anti-Sa in 10%. After three years, no difference was observed in RF and anti-CCP prevalence, but anti-Sa increased to 17.5% (P = 0.001). Repeated RF and anti-CCP measurement, including different isotypes, during three years of follow-up showed no significant changes. The third generation of anti-CCP assays did not increase the diagnostic value of the second-generation assays.Revista Brasileira de Reumatologia 12/2011; 51(6):564-71.

ABSTRACT: Although cocaine-induced pseudovasculitis and urticarial vasculitis have been reported in the past, levamisole-induced vasculopathy with ecchymosis and necrosis, termed here LIVEN, has only recently been described in association with cocaine use. Levamisole, a veterinary antihelminthic agent used previously as an immunomodulating agent, is present as a "cutting agent" in approximately two-thirds of the cocaine currently entering the United States. Levamisole is believed to potentiate the effects of cocaine and may also be used as a "signature" for tracing its market distribution. Herein, we report 2 cases of LIVEN in patients with histories of chronic cocaine use. In both the cases, a temporal association with neutropenia preceding the eruption was noted. A novel histopathologic finding present only in the second case was the presence of extensive interstitial and perivascular neovascularization. Our 2 cases reaffirm that neutropenia may precede the cutaneous eruption of LIVEN. Case 2 extends the spectrum of histopathologic findings to include the novel phenomenon of neovascularization-hitherto unreported in this entity.The American Journal of dermatopathology 11/2011; 34(2):208-13.

Article: Study of the frequency of HLA-DRB1 alleles in Brazilian patients with rheumatoid arthritis.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The HLA-DRB1 alleles encoding an amino acid sequence (QKRAA/QRRAA/RRRAA) at position 70 74 of the third hypervariable region of the β1 chain of the HLA-DRB1 gene, called shared epitope (SE), are associated with increased susceptibility to and severity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in different populations. To determine the frequency of HLA-DRB1 alleles in Brazilian patients with RA and their association with rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPA). Four hundred and twelve patients with RA (ACR 1987) and 215 controls were included. HLA-DRB1 typing was performed by use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with specific primers and hybridization with sequence-specific oligonucleotide probe (SSOP). ACPA was measured by use of the ELISA technique and RF by nephelometry. The statistical analysis comprised the chi-square and Student t tests and logistic regression. HLA-DRB1*04:01, *04:04, *04:05 alleles were associated with RA (P < 0.05); despite the wide confidence interval, it is worth noting the association between the DRB1*09:01 allele and RA (P < 0.05). HLA-DRB1 SE+ alleles were observed in 62.8% of the patients and in 31.1% of controls (OR 3.62; P < 0.001) and were associated with ACPA (OR 2.03; P < 0.001). DRB1-DERAA alleles showed a protective effect against RA (OR 0.42; P < 0.001). In a sample of Brazilian patients with RA, most of whom of mixed heritage, HLA-DRB1 SE+ alleles were associated with susceptibility to disease and presence of ACPA.Revista Brasileira de Reumatologia 11/2011; 51(5):474-83.

Article: Anti-C1q antibodies have higher correlation with flares of lupus nephritis than other serum markers[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Autoantibodies are important in the diagnosis and classification of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but whether they correlate with changes in disease activity within individual patients is controversial. We assessed the association between changes in SLE global and renal activity and changes in several autoantibodies and cell adhesion molecules in patients with SLE. Stored sera collected at two or three clinic visits from each of 49 SLE patients (91% female, 59% African-American, 31% Caucasian, 10% other ethnicity, 38% under 30 years, 41% between 30-44 years, and 21% 45-63 years) were analyzed. The visits were chosen to include one visit with proteinuria, and one or two without, for each patient. Global disease activity was measured by the Physician's Global Assessment (PGA), SELENA-SLEDAI (SLE Disease Activity Index modified to exclude anti-dsDNA and complement) and renal activity assessed by urine protein (by urine dipstick) and Renal Activity Score. Sera were assayed for anti-C1q, anti-chromatin, anti-dsDNA, anti-ribosomal P, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM) intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) and complement. The associations between changes in disease activity and changes in biomarker levels were assessed. In terms of global disease activity, anti-C1q had the highest association with the PGA (p = 0.09) and was strongly associated with modified SELENA-SLEDAI (p = 0.009). In terms of renal activity, anti-C1q had the highest association with proteinuria (p = 0.079), and was strongly associated with Renal Activity Score (p = 0.006). Anti-C1q performed the best of the potential biomarkers, being significantly associated with the modified SELENA-SLEDAI and with the Renal Activity Score. This study indicates the potential superior utility of anti-C1q over anti-dsDNA and other measures to track renal activity.Lupus 08/2011; 20(12):1267-74.

ABSTRACT: Anti-RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) antibodies are highly specific markers of scleroderma (systemic sclerosis, SSc) and associated with a rapidly progressing subset of SSc. The clinical presentation of anti-RNAP III positive patients, onset of Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) and SSc in unselected patients in a rheumatology clinic were evaluated. Autoantibodies in sera from 1,966 unselected patients (including 434 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 119 SSc, 85 polymyositis/dermatomyositis (PM/DM)) in a rheumatology clinic were screened by radioimmunoprecipitation. Anti-RNAP III positive sera were also tested by immunofluorescence antinuclear antibodies and anti-RNAP III ELISA. Medical records of anti-RNAP III positive patients were reviewed. Among 21 anti-RNAP III positive patients, 16 met the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) SSc criteria at the initial visit but 5 did not; diagnoses were vasculitis, early polyarthritis, renal failure with RP, interstitial lung disease, and Sjögren's syndrome. The first two patients developed rapidly progressive diffuse SSc. An additional case presented with diffuse scleroderma without RP and RP developed two years later. Anti-RNAP III antibodies in these 6 cases of atypical clinical presentation were compared with those in 15 cases of typical (SSc with RP) cases. Anti-RNAP III levels by ELISA were lower in the former group (P = 0.04 by Mann-Whitney test) and 3 of 6 were negative versus only 1 of 15 negative in the latter (P < 0.05 by Fisher's exact test). Three cases of non-SSc anti-RNAP III positive patients had predominant reactivity with RNAP I with weak RNAP III reactivity and had a strong nucleolar staining. Three anti-RNAP III patients, who did not have RP at the initial visit, developed RP months later. Scleroderma developed prior to RP in 5 out of 16 (31%) in the anti-RNAP III group, but this was rare in patients with other autoantibodies. The interval between the onset of RP to scleroderma was short in anti-RNAP III positive patients. Anti-RNAP III antibodies are highly specific for SSc; however, a subset of anti-RNAP III positive patients do not present as typical SSc. The interval between RP and scleroderma in this group is short, and 31% of patients developed scleroderma prior to RP in this group. Anti-RNAP III positive patients may not present as typical SSc and detecting anti-RNAP III may have predictive value.Arthritis research & therapy 07/2011; 13(4):R119.

ABSTRACT: The term 'cocaine-induced pseudovasculitis' was coined to encompass a constellation of clinical and laboratory findings which mimics a systemic vasculitis but lacks confirmatory evidence of vasculitis on biopsy. Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies reacting with human neutrophil elastase (HNE) have been reported to distinguish the cocaine-related syndrome from a true autoimmune vasculitis. Published cases of retiform purpura related to cocaine use are rare and an etiologic role for levamisole, a common adulterant of cocaine, has been postulated. We describe two female patients aged 39 and 49 years with cocaine-related retiform purpura, mainly affecting the legs. The initial clinical and serological profile in case 1 led to a suspicion of anti-phospholipid syndrome and in case 2 to Wegener's granulomatosis with an unexplained associated neutropenia. Skin biopsies revealed a mixed pattern of leukocytoclastic vasculitis and microvascular thrombosis in case 1 and pure microvascular thrombosis in case 2. Identification of anti-HNE antibodies in both patients linked their disease to cocaine. The mixed vasculopathic pattern in case 1 and the associated neutropenia in case 2, both known adverse effects of levamisole, point to this as the true etiologic agent. Urine toxicology shortly after a binge of cocaine use in each case was positive for levamisole.Journal of Cutaneous Pathology 12/2010; 37(12):1212-9.

ABSTRACT: To characterize a population of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) according to laboratory aspects, comparing it with other similar cohorts. Data presented are part of a prospective incident cohort study that evaluated 65 patients with early RA, followed for 36 months from the diagnosis at Early Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinic of Hospital Universitário de Brasília (HUB). We recorded demographics, clinical, and laboratory data relevant to the cohort initial assessment, including red blood cells, evidence of inflammatory activity, and presence of autoantibodies (rheumatoid factor (RF)), cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP), and antivimentin citrullinated (anti-Sa). There was a preponderance of female (86%) with mean age of 45.6 years. Twelve patients (18.46%) had laboratory diagnosis of anemia (hemoglobin < 12 g / dL). Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were above the reference value for 51 (78.46%) and 46 (70.76%) patients, respectively. Thirty-two patients (49.23%) were positive for at least one of the RF isotypes, and 28 patients (43.07%) were positive for IgA RF, 19 (29.23%) for IgG, and 32 ( 49.23%) for IgM RF, respectively; 34 patients (52.30%) were positive for at least one of the techniques used in investigation of anti-CCP (CCP2, or CCP3, or CCP3.1), while 9 (13,85%) were positive for anti-Sa. The laboratory characteristics of patients enrolled in this Brazilian cohort are similar in many respects to those of North-American, European, and Latin-American cohorts previously published.Revista Brasileira de Reumatologia 08/2010; 50(4):375-88.

ABSTRACT: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of various autoantibodies, including anti-centromere, anti-topoisomerase (Scl-70), anti-PM/Scl-100, and anti-RNA-polymerase III (RNA Pol-III) antibodies. Recently, new ELISA based immunoassays have become available for the detection of anti-PM/Scl and anti-RNA Pol-lII antibodies. We studied the prevalence and clinical association of anti-PM/Scl-100 (PM1-Alpha) and anti-RNA Pol-III antibodies. Antibodies to PM1-Alpha and RNA Pol-III were measured by ELISA (DR. Fooke Laboratories and Inova Diagnostics, respectively) in 242 patients with various connective tissue diseases (CTD) (including 70 SSc patients) and in 36 non-CTD controls. Low levels of PM1-Alpha antibodies were found in various CTDs, whereas high levels were exclusively found in SSc, dermatomyositis and polymyositis, albeit at low frequency (4.7%). Anti-RNA Pol-III antibodies were found in 7% of SSc and in 1% of non-CTD and CTD controls. Anti-centromere and anti-Scl-70 antibodies were found in 37% and 21% of SSc patients, respectively. Anti-centromere antibodies were associated with limited cutaneous SSc and anti-Scl-70 antibodies with diffuse cutaneous SSc and interstitial lung disease. Because of the low number of samples positive for anti-PM/Scl-100 or RNA Pol-III antibodies, no clinical feature was statistically correlated with the presence of either reactivity, but taken together the presence of either antibody was correlated with interstitial lung disease. Anti-PM1-Alpha and anti-RNA Pol-III antibodies were mutually exclusive with anti-Scl-70 antibodies. At high levels, anti-PM/Scl-100 antibodies were associated with SSc, PM, and DM, albeit at low frequency. Anti-RNA Pol-III antibodies were associated with SSc (in 7%) with high specificity.Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry 03/2010; 411(13-14):965-71.

Article: Distinct pattern of rheumatoid factor serotypes in serial evaluation of patients with early rheumatoid arthritis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: INTRODUÇÃO: O fator reumatoide (FR), apesar de suas limitações, ainda é o marcador sorológico mais utilizado para diagnóstico da artrite reumatoide (AR) inicial. Há controvérsias sobre sensibilidade, especificidade, correlação com prognóstico radiológico e variação ao longo do tempo dos títulos dos sorotipos IgG, IgM e IgA. OBJETIVO: Avaliar o comportamento dos diferentes sorotipos de FR (IgG, IgM e IgA), em avaliações seriadas, e sua correlação com a ocorrência de erosões radiográficas. PACIENTES E MÉTODOS: Foram avaliados 40 pacientes com o diagnóstico de AR inicial (menos de 12 meses de sintomas) durante três anos de acompanhamento. A titulação dos sorotipos de FR foi feita por ELISA, na avaliação inicial, e seriadamente ao longo de 36 meses. Aplicou-se um modelo de regressão de efeitos mistos, considerando-se como desfecho a ocorrência de erosões radiográficas (radiografia de mãos e punhos, pés e tornozelos anuais). RESULTADOS: Na avaliação inicial, 30%, 42,5% e 50% dos pacientes foram positivos para FR IgG, IgA e IgM, respectivamente. Os títulos de FR IgA e FR IgM foram maiores nos pacientes que apresentaram erosões radiográficas durante o acompanhamento (10-220 UI/dL contra 0 a 10 UI/dL nos pacientes sem erosões, P < 0,05). Os títulos de FR IgM e IgG não variaram ao longo dos três anos de acompanhamento. Por outro lado, em relação aos títulos de FR IgA houve uma tendência linear positiva ascendente significativa (P = 0,0013) apenas no grupo que apresentou erosões radiográficas. CONCLUSÃO: 1) Pesquisa dos sorotipos FR IgA e FR IgG não aumenta a frequência de positividade do FR e, portanto, não contribui para o diagnóstico de AR; 2) a estabilidade observada do FR IgM ao longo do tempo não justifica solicitações repetidas do FR durante a evolução da AR; 3) títulos mais altos de FR IgA e FR IgM são observados nos pacientes mais graves, com erosões radiográficas; 4) FR IgA apresenta um comportamento claramente distinto nos pacientes que apresentam ou não erosões radiográficas, o que pode ter implicações na fisiopatogenia e na avaliação prognóstica da doença.Revista Brasileira de Reumatologia 06/2009; 49(3):223-235. · 0.99 Impact Factor
Article: Prevalence of antibodies to Ro-52 in a serologically defined population of patients with systemic sclerosis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Antibodies against Ro-52 have been described in patients with a broad spectrum of autoimmune disease, most commonly in association with anti-Ro-60 in systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjogrens syndrome. However, in inflammatory myositis anti-Ro-52 is frequently present without anti-Ro-60 and is closely linked to the presence of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aats) antibodies. To date there have been no comprehensive reports on the frequency of anti-Ro-52 in systemic sclerosis (SSc), a disease characterised by hallmark autoantibodies that occur in non-overlapping subsets. Clinically, each antibody-defined group has a distinct pattern of organ involvement, some featuring myositis. To determine the frequency of anti-Ro-52 in serologically defined groups of SSc patients and to investigate a possible link with myositis-associated autoantibodies. Serum samples from 1010 patients with SSc and 55 and 32 patients with anti-aats and anti-Ku respectively were tested for the presence of anti-Ro-52 using a commercial ELISA. The prevalence of anti-Ro-52 was 15-38% in nine of the eleven sub-groups. There were no significant differences in mean anti-Ro-52 levels in these groups with the exception of that defined by the presence of anti-U1-RNP. In the remaining groups defined by anti-Ro-60 and anti-aats, anti-Ro-52 was present in 92% and 100% respectively. In sera from non-SSc patients with anti-aats, anti-Ro-52 was detected in 64%. Anti-Ro-52 is present throughout the SSc population. It is neither more prevalent in the myositis-associated antibody groups nor does it segregate with any other major SSc-specific autoantibodies. The co-existence of anti-Ro-52 with both anti-Ro-60 and anti-aats is confirmed.Journal of Autoimmune Diseases 02/2009; 6:2. DOI:10.1186/1740-2557-6-2
Article: Anti-C1q Antibodies: Association With Nephritis and Disease Activity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Anti-C1q antibodies have been described in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) as well as in other connective tissue diseases. They have been considered as a marker for disease activity and presence of nephritis. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of anti-C1q antibodies in Brazilian lupus patients as well as analyze their association with different clinical and serologic parameters. Sera from 81 SLE patients, based on the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria, were collected from a lupus referral outpatient clinic in Salvador, Brazil. Antibodies to C1q were detected by an enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) kit and antibodies to other cellular antigens identified by indirect immunofluorescence on HEp-2 cell substrate (ANA), or Crithidia luciliae (dsDNA), and to nucleosome by ELISA. A cutoff of 20 U was established for anti-C1q and anti nucleosome assays. Anti-C1q antibodies were detected in 39.5% (32/81) of SLE sera. The presence of anti-C1q antibodies was associated with proteinuria (P=0.028) but not with other laboratory or clinical features, such as anti nucleosome or anti-dsDNA antibodies, hematuria, urinary casts or renal failure, leukopenia, pericarditis, pleuritis, malar rash, seizures, and psychosis. There was a positive correlation between the titers of anti-C1q antibodies and the systemic lupuis erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) score (r=0.370; P=0.001). This study in Brazilian SLE patients confirms previous findings of the association of anti-C1q antibodies with nephritis and disease activity.Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis 01/2009; 23(1):19-23.

Whitney Oaks Golf ClubRead MoreBefore Manifest Destiny and the Gold Rush took hold, the land now occupied by Whitney Oaks Golf Club was home to the native Maidu culture's Nisenan. In 1857, George Whitney established Whitney Ranch after purchasing 320 acres of grazing land for his sheep. Exactly 140 years later—once all of Mr. Whitney's sheep had graduated college—Whitney's old ranch officially became Whitney Oaks Golf Club. Owned and operated by the United Auburn Indian community, the club envelops rounds with thousands of majestic oaks and an abundance of well-placed bunkers. Large granite outcroppings make for tricky shots on certain holes, and the wetland-rich topography adds to the unpredictability of the layout. Prior to stepping foot on the course, golfers can also squeeze in some practice thanks to a 15-station driving range, putting green, and pitching area.

State to collect unused prescription drugs
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — State health and law enforcement officials are asking the public to get rid of potentially dangerous prescription drugs that are expired, unused or unwanted. They are working with police and sheriffs' department in many towns to set up drop-off points for Prescription Drug Take-Back Day on Saturday, Oct. 26. Officials say the program is free and anonymous. Attorney General Luther Strange says getting rid of potentially dangerous controlled substances is an important step in fighting drug abuse and drug-related crimes. Officials say using the drop-off points is much safer than throwing the unused prescriptions in the trash or flushing them down the toilet. The drop-off points will operate from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. A list of drop-off sites is available on the state health department's website.

DNA so dangerous that it doesn't exist in nature has been given its first useful role – keeping innocent people out of jail.
Several sequences of DNA not found in nature – probably because they are incompatible with life – were identified in 2007. Now it seems these so-called nullomers can be used to tag DNA samples taken from police suspects. If a suspect's DNA was tagged and then accidentally mixed with a crime-scene sample it would place them at the scene when perhaps they were not. But the tag's presence would prove that particular DNA sample came from sloppy lab or forensic practice and not the suspect.
Greg Hampikian of Boise State University in Idaho and his colleagues impregnated filter paper with various nullomers. The cards were then used to soak up and store DNA samples from a knife blade and a coffee cup lid.
Sure enough, even when Hampikian diluted the DNA samples 100,000 times, the nullomers were still identifiable, and didn't interfere with analysis of the original DNA profile (Journal of Forensic and Legal Medicine, doi.org/mcf).
This article appeared in print under the headline "Killer DNA protects the innocent"
Correction: When this article was first published, the second paragraph stated that nullomers were not found in humans. This has now been extended to all of nature.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greeks took to the streets by the tens of thousands on Saturday to commemorate the 39th anniversary of a deadly student uprising against the country's former dictatorship.
While the marches went on peacefully, clashes between anarchists and police erupted briefly in the capital, Athens and Greece's second-largest city of Thessaloniki, in both cases far from where the marches took place. Police announced they detained 70 people in Athens and 19 in Thessaloniki.
With more than 6,000 police deployed in the city center, protesters marched from the National Technical University of Athens, where the 1973 uprising kicked off, to the U.S. Embassy. They were led by students carrying a Greek flag bloodied during the uprising.
Many Greeks hold the U.S. responsible for backing the 1967-1974 dictatorship. Protesters burned a U.S. flag outside the embassy, a yearly ritual.
A separate march by Communist Party supporters later went past the U.S. Embassy.
The Communists had announced their intention to march on to the Israeli Embassy, past the U.S. Embassy, to protest Israel's bombardment of the Gaza Strip. Police initially blocked the route at the request of a prosecutor, but after talks with protesters, unblocked it and the march resumed and ended peacefully.

Author Bio
Frank O'Connor was the pseudonym of Michael Francis O'Donovan, who was born into poverty in County Cork. He left school at 12; by the age of 20 he was in prison for his political activities. Afterwards he became a teacher of Irish--he believed passionately in keeping the language alive--and a librarian; he also worked in theatre, and became a vital part of the literary and political worlds of Dublin in he 1930s. He wrote short stories, novels, biography, journalism, poetry, criticism, plays, and translations from Gaelic. Censored in Ireland for his radical politics, he came to America in 1959, returning home in 1961. He died five years later of a stroke.

ABC to Air Special Documenting Robin Roberts' Fight Against MDS, 2/22
"Robin's Journey" takes viewers on a candid, inspiring and intimate journey inside Robin Roberts' challenging fight against myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), a rare blood disorder. Roberts returned to "Good Morning America" on Wednesday, February 22, five months to the day since she underwent a bone marrow transplant to treat the MDS. The Hour includes never-before-seen private moments, beginning with the pre-transplant treatment, through her time in the hospital, to the "all clear" moment to return to "GMA," as well as many challenging times and milestones along the way.
"Robin's Journey" airs on a special edition of "20/20," FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22 (10:01-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.
Diane Sawyer, who was alongside Roberts during her breast cancer battle, was again by her side, and the two friends sit down together and reflect on the past year. Also helping Roberts tell her inspiring story are close colleagues and friends including George Stephanopoulos, Sam Champion, Josh Elliott, Lara Spencer and Dr. Richard Besser. Additionally, "Robin's Journey" showcases the people who inspired Robin, as well as those whom she inspired with her incredible hope and determination.
David Sloan is senior executive producer and John Green is executive producer of "20/20."

Vacuum Cleaner Bags
Vacuum cleaning systems that offer the best cleaning ability – is that what you are seeking? It's also likely that you believe that cleaning ability is related to power or suction. Actually, it's not. While there's no single factor that determines the cleaning ability of the vacuum cleaner you use, understanding how vacuums work and how you can help maintain your vacuum cleaner to perform its best is important. Changing your vacuum cleaner bag is an important step in maintaining the efficiency of your vacuum cleaner. While most vacuum cleaners come with an indicator to help you determine when your cleaner's dust bag needs to be changed, you can perform a check yourself to see if it is over 50% full as that's when you need to replace it. Don't wait until the dust bag in your vacuum cleaner is completely full as it can reduce the suction and cleaning capacity of your vacuum cleaning system. If you use your vacuum cleaner frequently, it is recommended that you change vacuum cleaner bags once a month, especially if you are cleaning a large area over 2000 square feet or if your pet sheds a lot.
What you need the most when you are considering vacuum cleaner bag replacement is a bag that is well-matched with the model of your vacuum cleaning system. You can find original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or replacement type bags online. While both serve the purpose, that is enhancing the cleaning capacity of your vacuum cleaning system and providing you an easy way to get rid of all the dirt that you vacuum cleaner collects, you can choose one according to your budget and cleaning needs. At GoVacuum, we have got a vast range of vacuum cleaner bags from the biggest and the best brands around. You'll find them here at great prices and shipping offers.

Batman: Arkham Knight is a mess on PC, surprisingly solid on consoles [Updated] June 29, 2015 at 3:40 pm
Batman: Arkham Knight, the final game in Rocksteady's Arkham trilogy, was released this week to massive critical acclaim. Our sister site IGN gave it a 9.2 out of 10, and it currently has a Metacritic score of 90 out of 100 — big praise. And while the console versions of the game are performing surprisingly well, the PC release seems to be something out of one of Scarecrow's waking nightmares.

The Witcher 3 can't maintain 30fps on either the PS4 or Xbox One May 23, 2015 at 10:35 am
The Witcher 3 has been both critically and commercially successful since its release last week, but it's not without its issues. Most notably, the frame rate on the PS4 and Xbox One has been sub-par. Nobody sincerely expected it to be hitting 60fps on either console, but it seems that it can't even maintain a solid 30fps. We're a year and a half into this console generation, and AAA developers still can't keep the frame rate up.
