A Preliminary Ecological Study Of Areas To Be Impounded In The Salt River Basin Of Kentucky, Louis A. Krumholz, Stuart E. Neff, Edmond J. Bacon, Jerry S. Parsons, John D. Woodling

KWRRI Research Reports

This report includes work that is an extension of Project No. B-005-KY as reported in Research Report No. 43 of the University of Kentucky Water Resources Institute. That project was initiated in April 1968 as Project No. A-019-KY with principal emphasis on physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the main stem of the Salt River upstream from the proposed damsite for Taylorsville Lake, an impoundment of about 3, 600 acres at seasonal pool. The report includes descriptions of an additional 13 stations along the stream, bringing to 38 the number of permanent collecting sites.

State-Dependent Learning As A Function Of The Temporal Relationship Between Noncontingent Footshock And Electroconvulsive Shock, T. Scott Shutt

All Master's Theses

Rats were given a noncontingent footshock followed at various intervals by electroconvulsive shock. Twentyfour hours later they were trained on a non-shock passive avoidance task and tested for retention 72 hours later. When the interval between NCFS and ECS was short the animals showed an amnesia which reduced as the interval was lengthened. An interval of .5 seconds produced the most pronounced amnesia and intervals greater than 10 seconds produced virtually no amnesia. The results were consistent with a state dependent retrieval failure hypothesis.

A Flora From The Dakota Sandstone Formation (Cenomanian) Near Westwater, Grand County, Utah, Samuel R. Rushforth

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

A Cretaceous (Cenomanian) flora from the Dakota Sandstone Formation near Westwater, Grand County, Utah contains an admixture of ferns and angiosperms. The ferns of this flora are representative of an older Jurassic-Wealden vegetational type, whereas the angiosperms are typical of the modern vegetational type. Species of Gleichenia and Matonidium and Astralopteris coloradica represent the dominant forms in this flora.

The Westwater flora contains fourteen genera including nineteen species and one variety. New species described from this flora include Asplenium dakotensis, Coniopteris westwaterensis and Ilex serrata.

Gastrocolic Fistulas Due To Cancer: Report Of A 16-Year Survival And A Review Of The Literature, Susan Adelman, Joseph L. Ponka

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A case of 16-year survival following resection of a malignant gastrocolic fistula is reviewed. The patient's post-gactrectomy anemia is discussed. The world literature of 92 cases of malignant gastrocolic fistulas reported since 1925 is reviewed.

Prevention Of Recurrent Systemic Embolism With Anticoagulants In Patients With Rheumatic Heart Disease, Sudarsan Misra, Irwin J. Schatz

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Results are reported of long-term anticoagulant treatment in a group of 90 patients with rheumatic heart disease who had systemic embolism. Compared to the reported incidence of recurrent systemic embolism in patients not given anticoagulant drugs, such therapy remarkably lowers the risk of such occurrences. Complications from this treatment in the reported patients were minimal.

Use Of A Cooling Jacket During Kidney Transplantation, Stanley G. Dienst, Mohammed R. Ansari

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The model of renal autotransplantation, with immediate contralateral nephrectomy in the dog, is used to demonstrate that continuous cooling by means of a cooling jacket during vascular anastomoses is effective in preserving renal function acutely and over a two-month follow-up period.

Small Bowel Perforation In Blunt Abdominal Trauma, C. Grodsinsky, Brock E. Brush

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This review of pre- and post-operative management of six cases of small bowel perforation secondary to blunt abdominal trauma provides the opportunity to analyze the problems involved in prompt diagnosis and adequate care. Some of the possible mechanisms producing the perforation are discussed. In order to prevent undue delays in diagnosis, changes in clinical picture should warrant early surgical exploration. This avoids increased rates of mortality and prolonged morbidity.

Critical Factors In The Management Of Liver Abscesses, Melvin A. Block, Hubert M. Allen

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Newer diagnostic techniques, including radioisotope liver scans, bacteriologic culture procedures for anaerobes, serologic tests for amebiasis, ultrasonic echograms, and hepatic arteriography, permit more specific identification and localization of hepatic abscesses. Large pyogenic abscesses are of particular Importance to surgeons; are frequently caused by anaerobic organisms; and require early, direct, adequate, and sufficiently prolonged surgical drainage. The clinician should be alert also to recognition and management of the primary lesion responsible for the hepatic abscess, associated abscesses elsewhere, and the possible presence of an underlying liver neoplasm.

Effects Of An Eeg "Seizure Discharge" On Operant Responding, Richard M. Lee, Julia A. Lee, Hendrik Van Den Ende, Lorne D. Proctor

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A post-stimulus "seizure discharge" recorded in the amygdaloid area of monkey brains was investigated primarily by studying its effects upon behavior. Three different operant conditioning schedules were used with animals implanted with multiple depth electrodes. The schedules involved the factors of number discrimination, attention, sequential responding, and self-stimulation. Although the electrical brain stimulation caused a disruption in responding, no behavioral effects could be attributed to the recorded discharge itself. This result, and previous findings, lead to the tentative conclusion that the discharge results from a physico-chemical, brain-electrode interface phenomena and is not neurophysiological in nature.

Dissecting Aneurysm Of The Aorta: Diagnosis, Treatment And Prognosis, Hahn J. Lee, Ellet H. Drake

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The records of 13 patients with proven dissecting aortic aneurysm were studied with particular attention to the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis in each case. The three essential steps in reaching an early correct diagnosis included (1) history and physical examination, (2) serial chest x-rays and (3) aortography. Electrocardiogram and SCOT and LDH measurements seem to be of value only when incompatible with the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Significant differences between Type 1 and Type 3 dissections were observed in their clinical manifestations, results of treatment and natural prognosis.

Botanical And Physiographic Reconnaissance Of Northern British Columbia, Stanley L. Welsh, J. Keith Rigby

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

The area of study is located in northern central British Columbia and includes the Sustut Basin and surrounding mountains. The physiography and geology of the region is described and the plant communities are enumerated.

A Preliminary Ecological Study Of Areas To Be Impounded In The Salt River Basin Of Kentucky, Louis A. Krumholz

KWRRI Research Reports

This report covers work that is an extension of Project No. A-019-KY. A series of 25 sampling stations was established in the mainstream and tributaries of the Salt River that extend from the source of the stream in Boyle County to a few miles below the site of Taylorsville Darn in Spencer County. Sampling for water chemistry and biota was carried out semimonthly. Data on temperature, oxygen, depth, and discharge, along with analyses for cations (Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn) and anions (PO₄, NO₃, NO₂, CO₃, HCO₃) have been accumulated and …

The Role Of D-Gluconic Acid In The Regulation Of The Synthesis Of The Enzymes Of The Entner-Doudoroff Pathway In Pseudomonas Fluorescens, Steven C. Quay

Honors Theses

Induction of Entner-Duodoroff pathway enzymes in Pseudomonas fluorescens was investigated to study the role of gluconate as a possible inducer. Glucose oxidase-deficient mutants were isolated and characterized. One of these mutants, gox-7, was deficient in particulate glucose oxidase; another mutant, gox-17, was deficient in particulate glucose and gluconate oxidase activities. Gluconate, but not glucose, induced synthesis of gluconokinase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase in both mutants. High constitute levels of 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate aldolase were found when both mutants were grown on glucose. Growth of parent and both mutant strains on glycerol also resulted in high levels of Entner-Doudoroff pathway enzymes. It was concluded …
