cantly different (p<00001). Visual estimation of pupil size is accurate to about 0-2 mm' so detecting anisocoria of 0-5 mm or more presents no clinical difficulty. For practical purposes, therefore, miosis in the affected eye of a patient with unilateral red eye may indicate serious eye disease. We found that when an inflamed eye shows 0 5 mm or more miosis relative to the unaffected eye the pr...

This study examines the long-term results of DDD pacing in obstructive HCM. METHODS AND RESULTS DDD devices were implanted in 84 patients (mean age, 49 +/- 16 years) with obstructive HCM and severe drug-refractory s...

This study computed the life expectancy of a cohort of male narcotics addicts followed for 33 years and assessed the productivity lost as a result of premature mortality. The future life expectancy was constructed for the narcotics addicts and for a comparable cohort from the general U.S. population. The average future life expectancy of the cohort was 18.84 years compared to 33.48 years for co...
