index search health books site map Mumps Mumps is a virus infection which typically causes enlargement of the two salivary glands in the cheeks at the angle of the jaw. This gives an appearance rather like a hamster with food in its cheeks. Symptoms Sufferers often have a dry mouth and are feverish with headache and difficulty swallowing. Mumps slowly settles and does not usually cause lasting effects. Sometimes, if you catch it after puberty, mumps will cause swollen, tender, inflamed testicles and may later cause subfertility in some of those affected. Mumps may also cause inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) sometimes lead to miscarriage and, very rarely, also inflammation of the central nervous system eg meningitis , encephalitis, or myelitis. Table showing the relative risks of various complications of mumps Complications Risk Swollen, painful testicles 1 in 5 older males Deafness (usually gets partly or completely better) 1 in 25 Pancreatitis 1 in 30 Meningitis / encephalitis 1 in 200 to 5000 Causes Mumps is caused by a virus known as a myxo virus . It is transmitted mainly by infected saliva although the urine also contains virus particles. The saliva is infectious for approximately six days prior to the onset of swelling of the salivary glands in the cheeks (the parotid glands). The individual may be infectious for up to two weeks after the onset of swelling of the glands, but the peak period of infectivity is from a day or two before the onset of the swelling until very shortly after the swelling begins.

Facts About Mumps For Adults What is mumps? Mumps is an acute viral disease that is spread from person to person by coughing or sneezing. People who have mumps may spread the infection to others, even when they do not have any symptoms or their illness is mild. Prevention There is a vaccine to protect against mumps. The vaccine is frequently given to adults as part of a combination vaccine, called the MMR vaccine, that protects against measles, mumps and rubella. There is also a vaccine that protects only against mumps Symptoms The symptoms of mumps include a low-grade fever and swelling or tenderness of one or more of the salivary glands in the cheeks and under the jaw. Symptoms usually appear between 12 and 25 days after a person has been exposed to the virus. However, about one-third of infected people do not have symptoms. Who should get MMR vaccine? Adults born in 1957 or later who do not have a medical contraindication should receive at least one dose of MMR vaccine, unless they have documentation of vaccination with at least one dose of measles-, rubella-, and mumps-containing vaccine or other acceptable evidence of immunity to these three diseases. College and university students, healthcare personnel non-pregnant women of childbearing age, child care workers such as teachers and day care personnel, and international travelers are at increased risk for measles, and these persons should receive two doses of MMR vaccine to ensure adequate protection

6. Mumps mumps is a disease caused by a virus that can infect many parts of the body, especially the parotid salivary glands. http://kidshealth.org/parent/infections/bacterial_viral/mumps.html

KidsHealth Parents Infections Mumps is a disease caused by a virus that usually spreads through saliva and can infect many parts of the body, especially the parotid salivary glands. The parotid salivary glands, which produce saliva for the mouth, are found toward the back of each cheek, in the area between the ear and jaw. In cases of mumps, these glands typically swell and become painful. The disease has been recognized for several centuries, and medical historians argue over whether the name "mumps" comes from an old word for "lump" or an old word for "mumble." Mumps was common until the mumps vaccine was licensed in 1967. Before the vaccine, more than 200,000 cases occurred each year in the United States. Since then the number of cases has dropped to fewer than 1,000 a year, and epidemics have become fairly rare. As in the prevaccine era, most cases of mumps are still in children ages 5 to 14, but the proportion of young adults who become infected has been rising slowly over the last two decades. Mumps infections are uncommon in children younger than 1 year old. After a case of mumps it is very unusual to have a second bout because one attack of mumps almost always gives lifelong protection against another. However, other infections can also cause swelling in the salivary glands, which might lead a parent to mistakenly think a child has had mumps more than once.

Occurrence Risk for Travelers The risk for exposure to mumps outside the United States can be high. Because only 38% of countries use vaccine, mumps remains a common disease in many parts of the world. Prevention Mumps vaccine contains live, attenuated mumps virus. It is available as a single-antigen preparation or combined with live, attenuated measles or rubella vaccines, or both. Combined MMR is recommended whenever one or more of the individual components are indicated. at least 12 months of age.

The parotid glands (the salivary glands between the ear and the jaw) are often swollen. Unvaccinated children between the ages of 2 and 12 are most commonly infected, but the infection can occur in other age groups. Other organs may be involved, including the testes , the central nervous system , and the pancreas. The incubation period is usually 12 to 24 days.

bezahlte Anzeige Mumps bei Kindern (Parotitis epidemica) Dr. Petra Kraml Dr. Peter Voitl Was ist Mumps? Mumps ist eine Infektionskrankheit, die durch ein Virus (Mumps-Virus) verursacht wird. Besonders charakteristisch ist die Schwellung der Speicheldrüsen, vor allem der Ohrspeicheldrüsen. Am häufigsten erkranken Kinder unter 15 Jahren an Mumps. Besonders in städtischen Gebieten kann es in der ersten Jahreshälfte zu Epidemien kommen. Wer einmal an Mumps erkrankte, besitzt einen lebenslangen Schutz. Kinder werden heutzutage routinemäßig gegen Mumps geimpft, dadurch tritt die Erkrankung längst nicht mehr so häufig auf wie früher. Notfallmaßnahmen Wenn Ihr an Mumps erkranktes Kind einen steifen Hals bekommt, schläfrig und teilnahmslos ist, an Übelkeit leidet und erbricht, müssen Sie sofort einen Arzt hinzuziehen. Die Symptome deuten auf eine Hirnhautentzündung hin, die plötzlich ausbrechen und schnell fortschreiten kann. Damit Ihr Kind wieder vollständig gesund wird, muss die Krankheit möglichst schnell diagnostiziert und therapiert werden. Wie wird Mumps übertragen?

18. The Genesis Of MUMPS And MUG The story of the creation of the mumps programming language at The Massachusetts General Hospital, and its development into a procedural, interpreted generalpurpose programming language oriented towards database applications. By Glen Steinbach. http://207.192.157.194/MDC/genesis.htm

The Genesis of MUMPS and MUG When Glen Steinbach accepted the position as Chair of the MUMPS Users' Group in 1985, he delivered the text on the following pages as his maiden-speech. I've often seen parts of this reproduced; here is the complete text. The Genesis of MUMPS and MUG by Glen Steinbach In the beginning was the sky, and woods, and COBOL. And Octo Barnett looked out over the lab at Massachusetts General Hospital and said, "I will have a computer system for this lab." And contracts were let and work began. But this was the time of Assembly Language and early COBOL, and the Lab System needed better tools. Three young software shepherds named Pappalardo, Greenes and Marble heard a calling and followed it to the basement of the Hospital. There, in the corner of the animal lab, stood a PDP-7, and the creation of a new software system began. The three shepherds obeyed new and unwritten commandments: Thou shalt not declare variable types or file sizes. Thou shalt not KILL, except for globals and variables. Thou shalt not covet they neighbor's UCI.
