   Extractions: Medical information for patients index search health books site map Mumps is a virus infection which typically causes enlargement of the two salivary glands in the cheeks at the angle of the jaw. This gives an appearance rather like a hamster with food in its cheeks. Sufferers often have a dry mouth and are feverish with headache and difficulty swallowing. Mumps slowly settles and does not usually cause lasting effects. Sometimes, if you catch it after puberty, mumps will cause swollen, tender, inflamed testicles and may later cause subfertility in a minority of those affected. Mumps may also cause inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) sometimes lead to miscarriage and, very rarely, also inflammation of the central nervous system eg meningitis , encephalitis, or myelitis. Table showing the relative risks of various complications of mumps Complications Risk Meningitis / encephalitis 1 in 200 to 5000 Mumps is caused by a virus known as a myxo virus . It is transmitted mainly by infected saliva although the urine also contains virus particles. The saliva is infectious for approximately six days prior to the onset of swelling of the salivary glands in the cheeks (the parotid glands). The individual may be infectious for up to two weeks after the onset of swelling of the glands, but the peak period of infectivity is from a day or two before the onset of the swelling until very shortly after the swelling begins.

   Encourages vaccination for adults born after 1956 who have not had the disease or have no documentation of immunity.

   Extractions: The symptoms of mumps include a low-grade fever and swelling or tenderness of one or more of the salivary glands in the cheeks and under the jaw. Symptoms usually appear between 12 and 25 days after a person has been exposed to the virus. However, about one-third of infected people do not have symptoms. Who should get MMR vaccine? Adults born in 1957 or later who do not have a medical contraindication should receive at least one dose of MMR vaccine, unless they have documentation of vaccination with at least one dose of measles-, rubella-, and mumps-containing vaccine or other acceptable evidence of immunity to these three diseases. College and university students, healthcare personnel non-pregnant women of childbearing age, child care workers such as teachers and day care personnel, and international travelers are at increased risk for measles, and these persons should receive two doses of MMR vaccine to ensure adequate protection

The parotid glands (the salivary glands between the ear and the jaw) are often swollen. Unvaccinated children between the ages of 2 and 12 are most commonly infected, but the infection can occur in other age groups. Other organs may be involved, including the testes , the central nervous system , and the pancreas. The incubation period is usually 12 to 24 days.

10. Mumps
    mumps is a disease caused by a virus that can infect many parts of the body, especially the parotid salivary glands.  
    http://kidshealth.org/parent/infections/bacterial_viral/mumps.html
    
    Extractions: Mumps is a disease caused by a virus that usually spreads through saliva and can infect many parts of the body, especially the parotid salivary glands. The parotid salivary glands, which produce saliva for the mouth, are found toward the back of each cheek, in the area between the ear and jaw. In cases of mumps, these glands typically swell and become painful. The disease has been recognized for several centuries, and medical historians argue over whether the name "mumps" comes from an old word for "lump" or an old word for "mumble." Mumps was common until the mumps vaccine was licensed in 1967. Before the vaccine, more than 200,000 cases occurred each year in the United States. Since then the number of cases has dropped to fewer than 1,000 a year, and epidemics have become fairly rare. As in the prevaccine era, most cases of mumps are still in children ages 5 to 14, but the proportion of young adults who become infected has been rising slowly over the last two decades. Mumps infections are uncommon in children younger than 1 year old. After a case of mumps it is very unusual to have a second bout because one attack of mumps almost always gives lifelong protection against another. However, other infections can also cause swelling in the salivary glands, which might lead a parent to mistakenly think a child has had mumps more than once.

It is prepared from the extraembryonic fluid of the virus-infected chicken embryo and is concentrated and purified by differential centrifugation. The virus is killed with formaldehyde solution, 1:1000, and is then diluted with isotonic sodium chloride solution. The resultant product contains approximately 0.012 molar glycine and less than 1:8,000 formaldehyde solution. Thimerosal (mercury derivative) 1:10,000 is added as a preservative. The skin test antigen is formulated to contain at least 40 complement fixing units (CFU) per mL, at the time of release, as determined by the Complement-Fixation Test. This product, after shaking, is slightly opalescent in color.

Vaccines Home Mumps vaccine Summary and conclusions Mumps, or parotis epidemica All commercially available mumps vaccines are based on live, attenuated strains of the virus. Extensive use of these vaccines in industrialized countries has proved them to be safe and efficacious; so far about 500 million doses have been administered. Approximately 120 countries are using mumps vaccine in their national immunization programmes. Where sustained vaccination has been achieved the incidence of mumps has been significantly reduced. In general, adverse reactions to mumps vaccination are rare and mild. Large-scale mumps vaccination is recommended in countries with an efficient childhood vaccination programme and sufficient resources to maintain high-level vaccination coverage. In such countries the combination of mumps vaccine with measles, or preferably, measles and rubella vaccines is recommended. WHO recommends making mumps a notifiable disease. If a large proportion of the population remains seronegative for mumps, care should be taken to vaccinate adults considered to be at special risk. Regular serosurveillance will provide information on the susceptibility for mumps in various age groups.

17. The Genesis Of MUMPS And MUG
    The story of the creation of the mumps programming language at The Massachusetts General Hospital, and its development into a procedural, interpreted generalpurpose programming language oriented towards database applications. By Glen Steinbach.

    Extractions: by Glen Steinbach In the beginning was the sky, and woods, and COBOL. And Octo Barnett looked out over the lab at Massachusetts General Hospital and said, "I will have a computer system for this lab." And contracts were let and work began. But this was the time of Assembly Language and early COBOL, and the Lab System needed better tools. Three young software shepherds named Pappalardo, Greenes and Marble heard a calling and followed it to the basement of the Hospital. There, in the corner of the animal lab, stood a PDP-7, and the creation of a new software system began. The three shepherds obeyed new and unwritten commandments: Thou shalt not declare variable types or file sizes. Thou shalt not KILL, except for globals and variables. Thou shalt not covet they neighbor's UCI.
