BRIEF COMMUNICATION - Neocytolysis on Descent from Altitude: A Newly Recognized Mechanism for the Control of Red Cell Mass - This study confirms neocytolysis and the role of erythropoietin in persons with polycythemia who descend from high altitude. These findings may have implications that extend beyond space and altitude medicine to renal disease and other situations that involve erythropoietin suppression, hemolysis, and polycythemia./

BRIEF COMMUNICATION - Quinine-Associated Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura-Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: Frequency, Clinical Features, and Long-Term Outcomes - Quinine is a common cause of drug-associated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura-hemolytic uremic syndrome (TTP-HUS) and can cause death and chronic renal failure. When the disorder is described as TTP-HUS rather than only as HUS, the severity of neurologic abnormalities and the occasional absence of renal failure are emphasized. To prevent recurrent disease, clinicians must recognize quinine as a possible cause./
