In summary, healthcare decisionmakers should shorten the amount of time and reduce the resources spent on planning and selecting information systems.

A 19-year old male patient suffered a recurrence of histiocytosis X after 11 years of apparent remission. Radiographic lesions were found in the mandible. Loose and painful teeth were present. Low-dose radiation to the mandible and oral chemotherapy were followed with regression of bony lesions. Reports of incidence, treatment methods, and recurrences are reviewed.
Five infants with fever, leukocytosis, and a cystic lesion superimposed on a swollen gingiva had pneumococcal bacteremia. Lesions were so characteristic that a presumptive diagnosis of pneumococcal bacteremia was made in the last three patients before confirmation by blood cultures. Infants who initially have these symptoms should be considered at risk for pneumococcal bacteremia.
