    Notes: Central venous cannulation allows accurate monitoring of right atrial pressure and infusion of drugs during the anaesthetic management of infants undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass. In this prospective, randomized study, we compared the success and speed of cannulation of the internal jugular vein in 45 infants weighing less than 10 kg using three modes of identification: auditory signals from internal ultrasound (SmartNeedle, SM), external ultrasound imaging (Imaging Method, IM) and the traditional palpation of the carotid pulsation and other landmarks (Landmarks Method, LM). The cannulation time, number of attempts with LM and SM techniques were greater than those with IM technique. The incidence of carotid artery puncture and the success rate were not significantly different among the three groups. In infants, a method based on visual ultrasound identification (IM) of the internal jugular vein is more precise and efficient than methods based on auditory (SM) and tactile perception (LM).

    Notes: Abstract: The identification of the novel candidal species, C. dubliniensis, from oral swab studies of HIV-seropositive and -seronegative individuals has led to speculation that such a species may also reside in the oral cavity of other patient groups. In this study involvement of the newly described species, C. dubliniensis, was investigated in oral carriage and disease in 414 insulin-using diabetes mellitus patients. Seventy-seven percent of the diabetic patients carried candidal species in the oral cavity. C. albicans was the most commonly identified candidal species. This was followed by C. dubliniensis, which was isolated on 64 occasions. Colonisation with multiple candidal species was common, and C. dubliniensis was present in both carriage and disease states. Seven patients without signs of oral disease had C. dubliniensis isolated as the sole candidal species, while the same species was associated with various forms of oral candidosis in six patients.

    Notes: Abstract  This study investigated the effects of iron replacement on the incidence of recurrent herpes labialis and serum ferritin levels in patients with sideropenia. Ten patients with diagnosed sideropenia and a history of recrudescent herpes labialis were prescribed ferrous sulphate for a period of 3 months. Patients were questioned on the number of episodes of recrudescent herpes labialis that developed per month before treatment and the number of episodes of recrudescent herpes labialis that developed per month after the commencement of replacement iron therapy and during the follow-up period. All blood samples were collected by venipuncture for assay of ferritin levels. Serum ferritin levels were significantly increased compared to pretreatment levels (P〈0.05). The number of monthly episodes of recrudescent herpes labialis was reduced from 0.78 to 0.2 episodes per month following treatment (P〈0.05). The findings of this study suggest that iron replacement therapy should be further studied as a treatment option in sideropenic individuals with frequent recurrences of recrudescent herpes labialis.
