    Notes: Abstract Gene amplification is a model of proto-oncogene alterations occasionally observed in human tumors. This amplification can, in some cases, have prognostic value (N-myc in neuroblastoma, c-erbB2 and int-2 in breast cancer, etc.). Amplifications of the proto-oncogenes c-myc, c-erbB2 and int-2 have not yet been report in prostate adenocarcinoma, which, like breast cancer, is hormone dependent. We sought amplifications of these three proto-oncogenes by means of Southern blotting in 15 human prostate adenocarcinoma specimens, most of which were advanced (7 stage C and 6 stage D1 or D2). We confirmed the lack of c-myc and c-erbB2 amplification, regardless of the stage, in contrast to the case of breast cancer. Int-2 amplification was observed in one advanced tumor with bone metastases, out of a total of six stage D tumors. The precise frequency of int-2 amplification and its role in prostate carcinogenesis remain to be determined.

    Notes: Abstract Objective: To evaluate the impact of noninvasive positive pressure mechanical ventilation (NPPV) on ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Design: Prospective observational study. Setting: Medical intensive care unit (ICU) of a university teaching hospital. Patients: Cohort of 320 consecutive patients staying in the ICU more than 2 days and mechanically ventilated for ≥ 1 day. Measurements and results: VAP was diagnosed when, satisfying classical clinical and radiological criteria, fiberoptic bronchoalveolar lavage and/or protected specimen brush grew ≥ 104 and ≥ 103 CFU/ml, respectively, of at least one microorganism. Patients were classified into four subgroups according to the way in which mechanical ventilation was delivered: NPPV then tracheal intubation (TI) (n = 38), TI then NPPV (n = 23), TI only (n = 199), and NPPV only (n = 60). Occurrence of VAP was estimated by incidence rate and density of incidence. Risk factors for VAP were assessed by logistic regression analysis. Twenty-seven patients had 28 episodes of VAP. The incidence rates for patients with VAP were 18 % in NPPV-TI, 22 % in TI-NPPV, 8 % in TI, and 0 % in NPPV (p 〈 0.0001). The density of incidence of VAP was 0.85 per 100 days of TI and 0.16 per 100 days of NPPV (p = 0.04). Logistic regression showed that length of ICU stay and ventilatory support were associated with VAP. Conclusions: There is a significantly lower incidence of VAP associated with NPPV compared to tracheal intubation. This is mainly explained by differences in patient severity and risk exposure.
