      Although drug therapy with a proton pump inhibitor is the first-line treatment for gastro-esophageal reflux disease, surgery still has several specific indications.

    1. Should I order an anti-CCP antibody test to diagnose rheumatoid arthritis?
      Nilanjana Bose, MD and Leonard H. Calabrese, DO
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2012, 79 (4) 249-252; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.79a.11008

      This test is highly specific, though it may be redundant for a patient who has documented rheumatoid arthritis and who is seropositive for rheumatoid factor.

      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2012, 79 (4) 255-256; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.79a.11032

      Although purple urine itself is usually considered benign, it should prompt an evaluation for urinary tract infection.

  5. Christie, Richard

    1. Factor V Leiden: How great is the risk of venous thromboembolism?
      Khaldoon Shaheen, MD, M. Chadi Alraies, MD, FACP, Abdul Hamid Alraiyes, MD and Richard Christie, MD
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2012, 79 (4) 265-272; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.79a.11072

      The risk of a first episode of thromboembolism is two to five times higher with the heterozygous factor V Leiden mutation, but the absolute risk is still low.

    1. Synthetic legal intoxicating drugs: The emerging ‘incense’ and ‘bath salt’ phenomenon
      Jason Jerry, MD, Gregory Collins, MD and David Streem, MD
      Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine April 2012, 79 (4) 258-264; DOI: https://doi.org/10.3949/ccjm.79a.11147

      These products are gaining in popularity among drug abusers, because they are cheap and produce a powerful high. They may not be detectable on standard urine drug screening.
