OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between pernicious anemia and other autoimmune diseases. METHODS This retrospective and bicentric study was conducted at Reims and Strasbourg University Hospitals and involved 188 patients with pernicious anemia examined between 2000 and 2010 in order to search for other autoimmune diseases and to evaluate the role of pernicious anemia in autoimmune po...

It is now generally accepted that proximal colostomy, temporary or permanent, is ineffective in the treatment of diverticular disease unless followed by resection. Pemberton et al. (1947) reported that 30% of the cases treated by a permanent colostomy were not controlled and that 70% of those whose colostomies were closed without resection had serious recurrent disease. Lloyd-Davies (1953) reco...

CONTEXT The development and evolution of different chronic diabetic complications may present variations among the different types and conditions of this disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the degree of microangiopathy in Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1) associated with autoimmune polyendocrinopathies (OSAD) or isolated DM1 (iDM1). PATIENTS OSAD (n = 17) and iDM1 (n = 13) were over 15 years old a...

The gene responsible for autoimmune polyendocrino-pathy candidiasis ectodermal dystrophy (APECED) recently has been positionally cloned to 21q22.3. This novel gene, AIRE, encodes for a predicted 57.7 kDa protein featuring two PHD-type zinc fingers shared by other proteins involved in chromatin-mediated tran-scriptional regulation. APECED is an autosomal recessive condition characterized by mult...

Quantum illumination was first proposed in 2008 by Seth Lloyd, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, as a way of improving the sensitivity of radar and other methods of detecting distant objects1. The principle of radar is simple: a device sends electromagnetic waves into the environment and then listens for echoes that would signify the presence of an object. T...
