Some Parameters Of The Second-Order Conditioning Of Fear In Rats, Alan Kamil

Papers in Behavior in Biological Sciences

The effects of CS1 duration, partial reinforcement, and trace conditioning on second-order conditioned suppression were investigated, employing 64 rats as Ss. In Experiment 1, the clearest second-order conditioning was obtained when CS1 duration was the same during both the first- and the second-order conditioning phases of the experiment. In Experiment 2, somewhat better second-order conditioning was obtained when first-order conditioning had been under conditions of partial reinforcement, delay CS-US pairing. In neither experiment were CS1 suppression and CS2 suppression during second-order testing well correlated. This aspect of the results raised the question of the influence of nonclassical conditioning factors on …

Studies On The Helminth Fauna Of Alaska, Xlvi. Davainea Lagopodis Sp. Nov. (Cestoda: Davaineidae) From Grouse (Tetraonidae), Robert L. Rausch

Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology: Faculty Publications

Cestodes of the genus Davainea Blanchard 1891, from grouse in various Eurasian and North American regions have been identified as D. tetraoensis Fuhrmann 1919, or less frequently as D. proglottina (Davaine 1860). Those from ptarmigan (Lagopus spp.) in Alaska, resembling D. tetraoensis in some details but having only a single row of rostellar hooks and fewer testes, were earlier reported as D. proglottina by Babero (1953). The study of additional material from grouse from Alaska indicates that this cestode is specifically distinct from the two species mentioned. It is described here as new.

A Study Of The Effects Of Sitosterol Ingestion On The Serum Cholesterol Concentrations Of Two Genetically Different Strains Of Laboratory Mice, Marie Nichols Goldberg

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

A possible interrelationship between serum cholesterol level and atherosclerosis has long interested investigators in the fields of physiology and biochemistry. Cholesterol is found in very high concentrations in the plaques that occlude coronary arteries in man and laboratory animals. It is generally agreed that hypercholesterolemia favors the appearance of atherosclerotic lesions.^1<1

In recent years, much information has been accumulated regarding the factors which affect the serum cholesterol level. Exact and detailed biochemical mechanisms are still not clearly understood. However, it has been demonstrated that the serum cholesterol levels of man and several experimental animals can be lowered significantly by …

Serum Immunoglobulins In The Differential Diagnosis Between Intrahepatic Viral Jaundice And Extrahepatic Obstructive Jaundice, Gerald A. Logrippo, Thomas A. Fox, Melvin A. Block

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Serum immunoglobulin levels are reported in 75 patients with jaundice: 32 with jaundice due to virus hepatitis and 43 with jaundice due to obstruction. The degrees and variations of serum immunoglobulins (Ig), (IgM, IgG and IgA) in virus hepatitis (IH and SH) with jaundice are compared with those found in obstructive jaundice. In 32 of the patients with jaundice from virus hepatitis, serum IgM (100%) and IgG (75%) were elevated above 2 Standard Deviations from the mean values. Neither IgM nor IgG levels were elevated above 2 Standard Deviations from the mean values in 33 of 43 patients (76.7%) with …

Simple Methods For Detection Of Bacteriuria In The Physician's Office, E. G. Heinze Jr., A. Hodari, T. Connolly, D. Jones, F. Cox, E. L. Quinn

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Two simplified quantitative urine culture techniques, suitable for use in the physician's office, were shown to be reliable and practical. The miniature culture method (Testuria) and flood-plate technique gave comparable quantitative results, and the latter also yielded prompt information of organism specificity which was helpful in judging the significance of the culture findings.

Enzyme Histochemistry Of The Human Carotid Body, Gerald Fine, Pablo Enriquez, Azorides R. Morales

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Histochemical enzymatic survey of 25 "normal" human carotid bodies removed at autopsy from patients three days to 83 years of age revealed a variety of oxidative and hydrolytic enzymes in the lobular and interlobular cells. The intensity of the reactions was greater in the lobular cells. Acid phosphatase was the only enzyme that was limited to the cells comprising the lobules.

Comparative Osteology Of The Pelvic Girdles Of The Phyllostomatidae (Chiroptera; Mammalia), Dan W. Walton, Gloria M. Walton

Journal of the Graduate Research Center

The Chilonycterinae are the most primitive of the subfamilies of the Phyllostomatidae. Two basic groups comprise this subfamily: the first includes the genera Pteronotus and Chilonycteris; the second, the genus Mormoops. This grouping is based principally upon the characteristics of the humerus and the innominate. Within the subfamily Phyllostomatinae two types are recognized. The Macrotus-type is considered the more primitive, because of its resemblance to the chilonycterines, and the Phyllustomus-type the more advanced. From these two phyllostomatine groups are derived the more advanced lines of the Phyllostomatidae. The phyllonycterine line appears to be derived from the Macrotus-type. The sturnirine-glossophagine line …

Management Of Massive Hemoptysis, Eduardo Arciniegas, Conrad R. Lam

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Massive hemoptysis demands immediate investigation and treatment. Bronchoscopy done while the bleeding is active is essential to accurate localization of the site of origin and the cause of hemorrhage. Emergency pulmonary resection should be carried out if death is to be prevented by suffocation or exsanguination. Illustrative cases are presented.

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The study here presented is an historical examination of endometrial carcinoma at Henry Ford Hospital. A modified life table was constructed to estimate survivorship, and selected clinical features related to the patient's endocrine status were examined. Pathological findings associated with endocrine abnormalities in the ovaries were enumerated. The results of histologic grading of the tumors are presented, and the incidence and location of other primary malignant tumors in these patients are discussed.

Hospital Involvement In Regional Medical Programs, Robert M. O'Bryan

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The purpose of Regional Medical Programs is to improve the care of patients with heart disease. cancer, stroke or related diseases. Rather than subsidizing the cost of patient care, the program encourages the medical profession and medical institutions to establish voluntary, cooperative arrangements that will result in making the latest advances in these diseases available to patients. Programs are planned and implemented at local (Regional) levels through broad-based decision-making processes. This paper reviews five Regional Medical Programs with emphasis on various approaches hospitals are using to implement the program, and lists six criteria applicable to developing operational activities.

Tetracycline-Based Measurements Of The Bone Dynamics In The Rib Of A Girl With Hyperphosphatasia, S. Jett, H. M. Frost

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Tetracycline-based quantitative histological analysis was made of a rib biopsy taken from a girl afflicted with hyperphosphatasia. The study revealed essentially normal bone dynamics on trabeculae, but greatly increased turnover in the compacta, which was largely composed of woven bone. Since both bone resorption and lamellar bone formation could be unequivocally demonstrated on periosteal, Haversian, and cortical-endosteal surfaces, it is suggested that the direct cause of the cell behavioral abnormality responsible for this disease may arise locally within the bone, but external to the bone cells. Because of its familial nature, however, the ultimate cause probably represents an inborn intracellular …
