Peter Loewer, Jean Jenkins, Jean Loewer, and Peter Loewer Amazon base price: Average review score: Review of Pond Water Zoo This book affords a youngster (or adult) a gateway to a brand-new world, with its own rules and dramas, right under our noses. In a very readable way, it makes the world discovered by van Leeuwenhoek (the inventor of the microscope) real and accessible to young children and busy adults. Using pictures on every page, it guides the reader through an overview of this amazing menagerie and compares their sizes, then tells how they were discovered, and then reviews each category of creature in turn. It describes the life cycles and the most amazing things about each group. It succeeds in communicating the thrill of seeking and discovering as it explains how to collect or culture these creatures, which are more varied and exotic than dinosaurs, but are alive right now and present everywhere. Our daughter is 4, and is fascinated by the book (though it's meant for grades 5-8). I am unable to buy a copy now that it is out of stock, but I hope that will change soon. This is truly a marvelous book.

Extractions: Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis of medium-sized vessels with clinical manifestations resulting from ischemia and infarction of affected tissues and organs. Although the cause of most cases of PAN and the related disorder microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) remains largely unknown, there has been significant progress in understanding the pathogenesis of vascular inflammation. The diagnostic approach to PAN and MPA should be individualized and based on specific organ involvement. Because no test or clinical finding reliably indicates the presence or absence of PAN or MPA, diagnosis requires integration of clinical findings, angiography, and biopsy data.

Hergesell , Konrad Andrassy , Rüdiger Waldherr , Markus Blum Division of Nephrology, Division of Pathology, Division of ophthalmology, University of Heidelberg - Germany ABSTRACT: Coexistence of temporal arteritis with other types of systemic vasculitis has already been reported We describe the case history of a 72-year-old woman who first presented with biopsy-proven, ANCA-positive microscopic polyangiitis, and while on clinical and serological remission of microscopic polyangiitis, developed a biopsy proven temporal arteritis. KEY WORDS: Microscopic polyangiitis, Temporal arteritis, Vasculitis, ANCA Introduction Case Report Laboratory investigation disclosed a moderately elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) with 40 mm/h, a hemoglobin concentration of 125 g/l and normal leukocyte and platelet counts. Electrolytes, liver and thyroid function tests, glucose and muscle enzymes were within the normal range. The serum creatinine was 1.5 mg/dl and the urea concentration was 65 mg/dl. Urinalysis revealed a microhematuria and proteinuria of 1.6 g/24 h. The urinary sediment showed dysmorphic erythrocytes, red cell-and granular casts. Serological tests for Hepatitis B were negative. A collagen-vascular work-up including ANA, ds-DNA, cryglobulins, rheumatoid facter, SSA/SSB-antibodies was negative except for a borderline positive ANA (IgG-ANA titer 1:40). Complement and immunglobulin levels were within the normal range. Immunoelectrophoresis of serum and urine was normal. An infectious cause of the disease was thus excluded

Extractions: Results: Lung abnormalities were depicted in all 16 cases and included areas of ground glass attenuation (n = 12), nodules (n = 11), interlobular septa (n = 6), parenchymal bands (n = 5), peribronchial thickening (n = 5), air-trapping (n = 5, in two without bronchiectasis), cystic spaces (n = 4), prominent centrilobular branching structures (n = 4), bronchiectasis (n = 3), fibrosis (n = 3), and consolidations (n = 2). The distribution was diffuse in 10 cases. Parenchymal patterns were as follows: ground glass attenuation (n = 6, in one with crazy-paving appearance), ground glass and consolidations (n = 1), ground glass and nodules (n = 1), fibrotic (n = 3, in two with cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis appearance and in one with fibrotic masses), consolidations and parenchymal bands (n = 1), extensive bronchiectasis (n = 2), and minimal lesions (n = 2).
