A novel genetic locus for low renin hypertension: familial hyperaldosteronism type II maps to chromosome 7 (7p22)

Familial hyperaldosteronism type II (FH-II) is caused by adrenocortical hyperplasia or aldosteronoma or both and is frequently transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion. Unlike FH type I (FI-I-I), which results from fusion of the CYP11B1 and CYP11B2 genes, hyperaldosteronism in FH-II is not glucocorticoid remediable. A large family with FH-II was used for a genome wide search and its members were evaluated by measuring the aldosterone:renin ratio. In those with an increased ratio, FH-II was confirmed by fludrocortisone suppression testing. After excluding most of the genome, genetic linkage was identified with a maximum two point lod score of 3.26 at theta =0, between FH-II in this family and the polymorphic markers D7S511, D7S517, and GATA24F03 on chromosome 7,a region that corresponds to cytogenetic band 7p22. This is the first identified locus for FH-II; its molecular elucidation may provide further insight into the aetiology of primary aldosteronism.

Etiological and Clinical Features of Childhood Psychotic Symptoms Results From a Birth Cohort

Context: It has been reported that childhood psychotic symptoms are common in the general population and may signal neurodevelopmental processes that lead to schizophrenia. However, it is not clear whether these symptoms are associated with the same extensive risk factors established for adult schizophrenia. Objective: To examine the construct validity of children`s self-reported psychotic symptoms by testing whether these symptoms share the risk factors and clinical features of adult schizophrenia. Design: Prospective, longitudinal cohort study of a nationally representative birth cohort in Great Britain. Participants: A total of 2232 twelve-year-old children followed up since age 5 years ( retention, 96%). Main Outcome Measure: Children`s self-reported hallucinations and delusions. Results: Children`s psychotic symptoms are familial and heritable and are associated with social risk factors (eg, urbanicity); cognitive impairments at age 5; home-rearing risk factors ( eg, maternal expressed emotion); behavioral, emotional, and educational problems at age 5; and comorbid conditions, including self-harm. Conclusions: The results provide a comprehensive picture of the construct validity of children`s self-reported psychotic symptoms. For researchers, the findings indicate that children who have psychotic symptoms can be recruited for neuroscience research to determine the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. For clinicians, the findings indicate that psychotic symptoms in childhood are often a marker of an impaired developmental process and should be actively assessed.

Efeito da remoção de notificações repetidas sobre a incidência da tuberculose no Brasil

OBJETIVO: Avaliar o impacto nas taxas de incidência de tuberculose com a exclusão de registros indevidamente repetidos no sistema de notificação. MÉTODOS: Foram analisados dados do Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação do Ministério da Saúde, referentes ao período de 2000 a 2004. Os registros repetidos foram identificados por pareamento probabilístico e classificados em seis categorias excludentes que determinaram suas remoções, vinculações ou permanências na base. RESULTADOS: Verificou-se que 73,7% das notificações eram únicas, 18,9% formavam duplas, 4,7% triplas e 2,7% grupos de quatro ou mais registros. Dentre os registros repetidos, 47,3% foram classificados como transferência entre unidades de saúde, 23,6% reingresso, 16,4% duplicidade verdadeira, 10% recidiva, 2,5% foram inconclusivos e 0,2% tinham dados incompletos. Essas percentagens variaram entre estados. A exclusão de registros indevidamente repetidos resultou em redução na taxa de incidência por 100.000 habitantes de 6,1% em 2000 (de 44 para 41,3), 8,3% em 2001 (de 44,5 para 40,8), 9,4% em 2002 (de 45,8 para 41,5), 9,2% em 2003 (de 46,9 para 42,6) e 8,4% em 2004 (de 45,4 para 41,6). CONCLUSÕES: Os resultados sugerem que as taxas observadas de incidência de tuberculose representem estimativas mais próximas do que seriam os valores reais do que as obtidas com a base em seu estado bruto, tanto em nível nacional como estadual. A prática de pareamento de registros de notificação de tuberculose deve ser estimulada e mantida para melhoria da qualidade dos dados de notificação.
