Stine Amazon base price: Average review score: AIDS ENCYCROPEDIA A marvellously written epilogue with proven scientific facts that enables the layman understands the origin, development and preventive measures for the killer disease. A must read bible for the promiscuous and sexually adventurous ones. AIDS: The Challenge for South Africa Authors: Alan Whiteside and Clem Sunter Amazon base price: Average review score: excellent intro to an unprecedented catastrophe This is a very good and informative pamphlet on the HIV/Aids crisis that will kill up to 8 million S Africans in the next ten years. That is about 1/4 of the population. By that time, 30% of all children under 15 will be orphans! This book looks at the shape of the epidemic, the causes of its spread in Southern Africa at an unprecedented rate, and possible solutions. The subject is so alarming and bleak that it is impossible to exagerate. While it goes a bit too easy on the government's and Pres. Mbeki's personal responsibility in an attempt to avoid controversy, it hits hard nonetheless. I will use this book as essential background in my current writing project. While I may have wanted a bit more scientific and historical detail at times, this book strikes a superb balance between popularisation, accurate reporting, and a call to arms. It should serve as a model to the genre.

Health Funding News Laboratories ... Statements and Reports on Vision NEI Statement Hallervorden-Spatz Syndrome Gene Discovery National Eye Institute National Institutes of Health The gene that causes Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome has been identified by National Eye Institute (NEI) grantees. Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome is a rare, inherited, neurological disorder associated with high accumulations of iron in the brain, and causes progressive degeneration of the retina and nervous system. The new findings appear in the August 2001 issue of Nature Genetics. Susan J. Hayflick, MD, associate professor of Molecular and Medical Genetics at Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland, and colleagues discovered that the defective gene produces an ineffective enzyme. The body needs the normal enzyme to utilize vitamin B5; without it, vitamin B5 cannot produce some of the body's essential compounds. The ineffective enzyme results in Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome. Because of this research, scientists can now focus their efforts on developing treatment strategies that bypass this defective enzyme, allowing the body to utilize vitamin B5 to help make the essential body compounds. Researchers can also look toward developing a genetic diagnostic test for the syndrome. Understanding the biochemical defects in Hallervorden-Spatz syndrome may also provide insights into the effect iron has on other neurodegenerative diseases associated with high iron accumulations, such as Parkinson's disease.

Final Diagnosis Neurodegeneration with Axonal Spheroids and Iron Deposition FINAL DIAGNOSIS: NEURODEGENERATION WITH AXONAL SPHEROIDS AND IRON DEPOSITION (NEURODEGENERATION WITH BRAIN IRON ACCUMULATION 1; HALLERVORDEN-SPATZ DISEASE). DISCUSSION Hallervorden-Spatz disease (HSD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease first described in two sisters in 1922 (1). The onset of symptoms is during the first two decades of life and mean survival is approximately 11 years; The clinical features may include progressive motor disorder characterized mainly by "extrapyramidal" signs, typically dystonia, choreoathetosis, tremor, dysarthria, muscular rigidity, and mental deterioration evolving to dementia. Other clinical features may include seizures, corticospinal tract involvement with spasticity and retinitis pigmentosa (2). Approximately one half of HSD cases are familial with an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance. Recently a locus harboring the putative HSD gene was identified, by homozygocity mapping, on chromosome 20p12.3-p13. (3). Adult-onset HSD cases have been described and in rare cases acanthocytosis is also present. HSD-like cases with acanthocytosis, retinitis pigmentosa and pallidal degeneration with or without hypoprebetalipoproteinemia, have also been described (4, 5). Clinical criteria have been proposed to aid in the diagnosis of HSD but it is often difficult to arrive at the correct diagnosis without postmortem brain examination (6, 7). There is, currently, no treatment for HSD and management is directed at controlling specific symptoms.
