Shifting Strategies for Dealing with Head Lice Infestation: A Case Study in Guadalupe Farshad F. Marvasti and Jane A. Maienschein
Departments of Biology and Philosophy, Arizona State University Abstract:
In any given urban area with ample population congestion, there is a problem with head lice infestation. Public policies in place to deal with this medical problem generally involve the use of caustic chemicals and a "No-Nits" policy that keeps affected children out-of-school until their parents have eliminated all lice and their eggs. The biology, ecology, and evolutionary history of head lice, however, call into question these practices and suggest shifting our treatment programs from eradication to management process. Evidence for this shift includes the persistence of head lice and the development of strains resistant to conventional chemical treatments. To discover how this shift works, we aim to evaluate and apply conclusions to the community of Guadalupe as a case-study. Introduction: Recognized for thousands of years as parasites, the remains of head lice have been found throughout the world's history from pre-Columbian Peru to ancient Egypt around 5000 years ago (Hoeppli, 1959; Parish 1985; and Zinsser, 1935). Before the development of microscopy, widespread belief held lice to be spontaneously generated from dirt or decomposing sweat (Burgess, 1995). We now know that the head louse

Severe mental retardation-distal arthrogryposis in the upper limbs and complex chromosomal rearrangements resulting from a 10q25>qter deletion.
Lukusa T, Devriendt K, Holvoet M, Fryns JP
Center for Human Genetics, University Hospital of Leuven, Belgium. We present the first report of chromosomal rearrangement involving chromosomes 4, 10 and 12. The proband was a 42-year-old woman with severe mental retardation and multiple congenital anomalies. The most striking physical anomalies were upper limb contractures resulting in distal arthrogryposis. As upper limb flexion contractures have been previously reported in individuals with partial distal 10q deletion, this sign should be considered as part of the clinical manifestations of 10q25>qter monosomy.

Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita Nigel W. Sparks, MD

Background and Diagnosis
Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita is a nonprogressive disease that consists of two or more different joint contractures present at birth. There are more than 150 different conditions that are classified under the term arthrogryposis. Causes of arthrogryposis may include abnormalities of muscle, nerve, connective tissue, or limitation of movement in utero. The majority of this tutorial will focus on the most common form of arthrogryposis, amyoplasia. Other disorders in the arthrogrypotic syndromes include Larson’s syndrome, distal arthrogryposis syndrome, and multiple pterygium syndrome. In 1841, Adolf Wilhelm Otto named the disease congenital myodystrophy. He described the patient as a "human wonder with curved limbs." In 1923, Stern coined the term arthrogryposis multiplex congenita. In 1983, Hall and colleagues named the most common type of the disease amyoplasia. Amyoplasia consists of multiple joint contractures, which are symmetrical in positioning of the limbs. The etiology does not have a genetic basis but is sporadic in nature. There have been reports of epidemics in the 1960s in areas of eastern Europe and Great Britain. There seems to be an association with a decrease of anterior horn cells and other neural elements of the spinal cord. There is also a questionable relationship to oligohydramnios.

The information in this page and in the Rare Disease Database is provided for educational purposes only. It should not be used for diagnostic or treatment purposes. If you wish to obtain more detailed information about this disorder, please contact your personal physician and/or the agencies listed in the "Resources" section of this page. Overview What is It? The term congenital fiber type disproportion was first used by a scientist in 1965 to describe a group of hypotonic children with relative type 1 fiber smallness. The fairly uniform clinical presentation, a possible familial incidence, a relatively good prognosis, and a possible common pathophysiological mechanism suggested that it was a disease entity. Presently it is best to regard disproportion in muscle fiber size with 1 fiber smallness, or hypotrophy, as a pathological pattern that can occur in congenital myopathies and also in many other conditions. It is a rare muscle disease that is apparent at birth. Congenital fiber type disproportion is also known as:
  • CFTD
  • Atrophy of Type I Fibers
  • Myopathy of Congenital Fiber Type Disproportion
  • Myopathy, Congenital, With Fiber-Type Disproportion

Nimitys AMC tulee englanninkielisistä sanoista Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita. Se tarkoittaa synnynnäistä monioireista nivelten jäykistymäsairautta (amyoplasia). Taudin klassisessa muodossa esiintyy nivelten jäykistymiä ja epämuodostumia; mm. koukkusormet ja -polvet, kieroutuneet lonkat, sisään kiertyneet olkapäät sekä virheasennossa olevat jalkaterät. Myös kitalakihalkiot, sydänviat ja muut epämuodostumat ovat yleisiä. Toisinaan aivot voivat olla epämuodostuneet ja seurauksena on psyykkinen kehitysvammaisuus AMC-lapsia arvioidaan syntyvän suhteessa 1/3000 kaikista lapsista. Vammautumisista n. 30 % arvioidaan perinnöllisiksi . Oireiston aiheuttavia geenimutaatioita tunnetaan useita, mm. 9. kromosomin lyhyen varressa (9p13.2-p13.1) ja 5. kromosomin pitkässä varressa (5q35) sekä X-kromosomissa. Fysioterapeuttisilla ja kirurgisilla hoidoilla voidaan huomattavasti auttaa AMC-vammaisia. Sairauden vaikeusaste vaihtelee ja se jakautuu useampaan alatyyppiin.

Jess Daniel Introduction Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita (AMC) is a musculoskeletal disorder characterized by the presence of multiple joint contractures (limitation of the range of motion of a joint) at birth. In some cases, only a few joints may be affected, however, in the classic cases of AMC, hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, hips, feet, and knees are affected. In the more severe cases, joints in the back and jaw can be affected as well. In addition to having joint contractures, children also experience muscle weakness, which further limits movement. There may be as many as 10 to 20 different arthrogrypotic disorders, all with similar joint manifestations. However, the most common form of AMC is amyoplasia. There are many different causes of AMC, but typically it is a result of either problems with joint growth and development, decreased fetal movement (not enough room in the uterus to move), or problems with spinal development in the first 3 months of pregnancy. AMC occurs in 1 out of every 3,000 live births. In most cases, AMC is not inherited and does not occur more than once in a family. However, in about 30% of the cases, a genetic cause has been identified.

Help for Patients with Arthrogryposis
Sixteen-year-old Jennifer Weaver, an arthrogryposis patient at Shriners Hospitals, exercises daily to improve muscle tone and body strength. Don't offer to open a door or carry books or a lunch tray for Jennifer Weaver. She'd rather do it herself, thank you. Although she admires chivalry, Jennifer cherishes her hard-earned independence even more. Born with a rare and crippling condition called arthrogryposis, 16-year-old Jennifer has managed to overcome many of the physical limitations that are now a distant memory. "I knew when she threw her crutches across the room at age 3 while yelling 'I hate those things!' that she was a fighter," recalls Jennifer's mom Pam. Today, Jennifer is manager of her high school drill team, a star soloist in the school choir and works out daily at the gym. About the only physical challenge she encounters these days are stairs, which can be tricky to negotiate with leg braces. Often at school, Jennifer's football playing buddies scoop her up, toss her over their shoulders and run up the stairs, while petite, 100 pound Jennifer yells in protest that she can do it herself.
