    Resistance of man and bug
    Brian F. Mandell, MD, PhD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 202; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80b.04013

    Why individual clinicians make specific decisions usually can be sorted out. But our behavior as a group is more difficult to understand—and to alter.

The Clinical Picture

    Implications of a prominent R wave in V1
    Eric J. Chan, MD, Vijaiganesh Nagarajan, MD, MRCP, FACP and Donald A. Underwood, MD

    A 19-year-old woman presents with exertional dyspnea. What can her electrocardiogram tell us?

  • You have access
    A rapidly growing crusted nodule on the lip
    Paul J. Wirth and Thomas N. Helm, MD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 222-224; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80a.12050

    The patient, who had a squamous cell carcinoma, underwent Mohs surgery and has done well.

Medical Grand Rounds

  • You have access
    Detecting and controlling diabetic nephropathy: What do we know?
    Gerald Appel, MD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 209-217; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80gr.12006

    Diabetic kidney disease is on the rise. Strategies to prevent or control it are lowering blood pressure, controlling blood sugar, and inhibiting the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.

Review

  • You have access
    Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae: A menace to our most vulnerable patients
    Federico Perez, MD and David Van Duin, MD, PhD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 225-233; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80a.12182

    The emergence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) highlights the importance of effective antibiotics to maintain the safety of our health care system. Clinicians will encounter CRE as a cause of difficult-to-treat and often fatal infections in hospitalized patients. We review the mechanisms of carbapenem resistance, the dissemination and clinical impact of these resistant organisms, and challenges to their detection, treatment, and control.

  • Options for managing severe aortic stenosis: A case-based review
    You have access
    Options for managing severe aortic stenosis: A case-based review
    Olcay Aksoy, MD, Bridget L. O’brien, MD, FACC and Venu Menon, MD, FACC, FAHA
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 243-252; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80a.12078

    Today, patients who cannot undergo surgery can be offered a variety of less invasive treatments. We use seven cases to illustrate how to manage these patients.

Interpreting Key Trials

  • You have access
    Bone mineral density testing: Is a T score enough to determine the screening interval?
    Krupa B. Doshi, MD, CCD, Leila Z. Khan, MD, CCD, Susan E. Williams, MS, MD, CCD and Angelo A. Licata, MD, PhD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 234-239; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80a.12069

    Although a trial found that women with normal or only slightly low results need not come back for another 15 years, it may not be so simple.

Editorial

  • You have access
    What should be the interval between bone density screenings?
    Susan M. Ott, MD
    Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2013, 80 (4) 240-242; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.80a.12166

    Doctors should not order unnecessary and expensive tests and should not recommend frequent repeated testing that does not benefit the patient.
