  Multifocal Tachycardias
Multifocal atrial tachycardia is frequently associated with chronic obstructive lung disease or significant atrial disease.
Ventricular response during multifocal atrial tachycardia is often rapid because of high endogenous catecholamines in these patients due to stress, infection and hypoxia, and concomitant use of sympathomimetic agents.
Multifocal atrial tachycardia is often a precursor of atrial fibrillation, and on physical examination may actually be confused with atrial fibrillation, since an irregularly irregular ventricular response is noted.

 Consumer Guide to Bifocals: Multifocal and Bifocal Eyeglasses
Multifocals let you focus through different prescriptions at different distances through the same lens — hence the name.
A progressive lens is a special kind of no-line multifocal that incorporates all corrections, from distance to close-up, into one lens without any separation of the various visual zones by line.
Sometimes a common multifocal can become an occupational lens by changing the way it is placed in the eyeglass frame.

 Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), also known as progressive multifocal leukoencephalitis, is a rare and usually fatal viral disease that is characterized by progressive damage (-pathy) or inflammation (-itis) of the white matter (leuko-) of the brain (-encephalo-) at multiple locations (multifocal).
Other antiviral agents that have been studied as possible treatments for PML include cidofovir and interleukin-2, but this research is still preliminary.

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is an infrequent disorder of the nervous system that primarily affects individuals with suppressed immune systems (including, allograft recipients such as kidney transplant patients; patients with cancers such as leukemia or lymphoma; and nearly 10% of patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS).
The disorder, which is caused by a common human polyomavirus, JC virus, is characterized by demyelination or destruction of the myelin sheath that covers nerve cells.

 Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
OBJECTIVE: The significantly higher incidence of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome than in patients with other immunosuppressive conditions suggests that molecular interactions between human immunodeficiency virus 1 and JCV, via the Tat protein, are responsible for the activation of the JCV enhancer/promoter and the development of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy.
The detection and semiquantitation of JC virus (JCV) DNA in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is prognostic of survival and is a marker of the course of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML).
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a frequently fatal demyelinating disease caused by JC virus, occurs as an opportunistic infection in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
