What is a party without food?Piling food on their plates!The night is still young.And for a good little girl, too.Tim, have you been a good little boy?Has Donna Graff been a good little girl?She's still in awe of Santa Claus.Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.Patty and Newby Ely came down from Philadelphia for the party!Gregory Mortensen rotates the ticket barrel for the drawings.Does anyone have the ticket?The little boy draws a ticket.If no one is watching I'll write my number on the board.Jill Moebus and Rick Newman express their opinion on their chances.Tim is clowning as usual.Tom opens his present while Paul Daniels looks.Please add me to your list.Kennel Club is so impotent in supporting this

M.To whom correspondence should be addressed.VAD of public health importance is likely.Should the U5MR be used as a surrogate indicator?If so, is 70 the appropriate cutoff?Fund supports programs, along with unpublished vitamin A survey data from the World Health Organization.U5MR distribution was compared in countries with and without VAD.Sensitivity and specificity using U5MR cutoffs of 70 and 50 were calculated and compared with the presence of VAD as proven by a survey.Decreasing the cutoff from 70 to 50 increased the sensitivity of the criterion and included nine additional deficient countries.VAD problem that requires immediate or continuing action.These actions include proper, formal assessment of the vitamin A status of the population, vitamin A capsule distribution and other program actions.This strategy seemed to offer the advantage of a rapid effect and the possibility of focusing on the most vulnerable groups.Currently, vitamin A supplementation is the major program approach to reducing VAD.In certain instances, no information about any of the above indicators is available, or the available information is outdated.To collect this information takes time and money.U5MR), a rate widely available for most countries, might serve that purpose.The following points are addressed: does it make sense to use the U5MR as a surrogate indicator, and, if so, is 70 the appropriate cutoff?Estimates of the U5MR are available for most countries, and some countries even have data on the differences in mortality rates between the lower and higher socioeconomic classes.Not all these surveys were representative of the whole population, and they were conducted with different methodologies and sampling methods.Most of the countries did have a VAD problem, as indicated by the survey.FIGURE 1 U5MR distribution in UNICEF program countries.FIGURE 2 U5MR distribution of countries with vitamin A survey information (WHO).Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, East Asia and the Pacific, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States would increase by nine countries.Saharan Africa, South Asia, and Central and Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States.Included in this group are countries such as South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan.U5MR of 70 and 50 as cutoff points compared with the presence of VAD as proven by a survey (based on unpublished WHO data as shown in Fig.Saharan Africa, every country with a mortality rate higher than 50 has a VAD problem, whereas two countries have a VAD problem but they have a mortality rate lower than 70 and higher than 50.Changing the mortality cutoff from 70 to 50 improves the sensitivity for every region except South Asia.Setting the cutoff at a mortality rate of 40 would further increase the sensitivity but would include countries such as Brazil, with localized rather than nationwide problems.The U5MR relates well to VAD in these parts of the world, and it can be an easy and powerful way to advocate for the need of vitamin A programs.Guest editors for the supplement publications were Alfred Sommer, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD; Frances R.Effectiveness of vitamin A supplementation in the control of young child morbidity and mortality in developing countries.Vitamin A supplementation and child mortality.Assessment and control of vitamin A deficiency: the Annecy accords.Children 2001 2001 UNICEF New York, NY.The VAD decreases the workload of the heart while maintaining adequate blood flow and blood pressure.VADs can replace the left ventricle (LVAD), the right ventricle (RVAD), or both ventricles (BIVAD).In November 2002, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of one type of LVAD as a form of permanent treatment for patients who are ineligible for a heart transplant.VADs can also be used as a bridge in patients awaiting heart transplantation or in patients whose bodies have rejected a transplanted heart.To be considered for a VAD, patients must meet specific criteria with regard to blood flow, blood pressure, and general health.Demographics
About 40,000 people in the United States need a heart from a compatible donor, but only 2,200 donor hearts become available each year; hence there is a great need for mechanical devices that can keep patients alive during the wait for transplantation.VAD is implanted under general anesthesia in a hospital operating room.The catheter is threaded through the pulmonary artery, which carries blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs.Once the pump is turned on, blood flows out of the diseased ventricle and into the pump.After the VAD has been implanted, the surgeon closes the incisions in the heart and the chest wall.He or she will remain in the hospital for at least five to seven days.Anticoagulant (blood thinning) medications are given to prevent the formation of blood clots, and antibiotics are given to prevent infections.As the patient improves, he or she will begin a regular exercise program.Some VADs require drive lines connected to the control console that penetrate the chest or abdominal cavity.With appropriate training, the patient can continue treatment at home, returning to the hospital only when necessary.He or she will need to carry battery packs in a waistband or shoulder harness, however.Other complications include the development of blood clots; partial paralysis of the diaphragm; respiratory failure; kidney failure; failure of the VAD; damage to the coronary blood vessels; stroke; and infection.An additional risk is physical dependency on the device.In addition to physical complications, many patients find that their emotions and cognitive functions are affected by the implantation procedure.Depression, mood swings, and memory loss are not unusual in patients with VADs.If the patient is a candidate for a heart transplant, a successful VAD transplant may allow him or her to continue treatment at home.Boston, MA: Houghton Mifflin, 1997.ORGANIZATIONS
