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.

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 …

Play Preparation For The Adeno-Tonsillectomy Patient, Carol Brown, Harriet Hecker

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Hospitalization and surgery have been recognized as being psychologically stressful for the majority of children. Hospital personnel have attempted to reduce some of the unnecessary psychological stress incurred by children by the use of many different methods. This study attempted to evaluate the use of preoperative play preparation sessions for minimizing this stress. The method was experimental with one variable. The subjects were forty-one children aged three and one-half to seven and one-half who had adeno-tonsillectomies. Twenty-one children comprising Group E were involved in a play session by the researchers. Twenty children were not prepared in this way. The tools …

The Cerebellopontile Angle, The Blood Supply Of The Brain Stem And The Reticular Formation — Part Ii: Anatomical And Functional Correlations Relevant To Surgery Of Acoustic Tumors, Jose Bebin

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Present knowledge of the structure, function and pathology of the brain provides a better understanding of the events which lead to postoperative failures in the intracranial surgery of acoustic tumors. Part one of Dr. Bebin's presentation appeared in Volume 16, No. 1 — the Spring issue. In this second part, special reference is made to vascular and respiratory changes and to disturbances of consciousness.

Effects Of The Potent Nephrotogenic Aminonucleoside Of Puromycin On Phospholipid Metabolism In Rat Kidney Cortex Subcellular Fractions, Paul Bartlett, James F. Bossart

Craniofacial Changes Resulting From Expansion Of The Midpalatal Suture In The Macaca Mulatta Monkey As Revealed By Roentgenographic Analysis, Raymond M. Sugiyama

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of midpalatal suture separation on the craniofacial complex by quantitative roentgenographic analysis.

Ten female Macaca mulatta monkeys were randomly grouped for experimentation. Six animals were paired in groups for two months of treatment, four months of treatment followed by two months of post retention, and six months of treatment. The four remaining monkeys were paired and served as control animals for two and six month periods. Total activation of the expansion appliances in the treated animals was completed over a three week period.

The findings of this study were based …

Masseter Muscle Position Relative To Skeletal Open Bite And Skeletal Closed Bite, Alonzo David Proctor

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Modification of cephalometric roentgenographic procedures provided a means to identify the anterior borders of the right and left masseter muscles and relate them to surrounding dentoskeletal elements. Attachment of short, stiff, wires to the cheeks in a position superficial to the anterior borders of the muscles, subsequent to palpation and prior to exposure of the roentgenographic film, was the procedure used. The bi-lateral images projected on the film were averaged and traced along with dentoskeletal elements including those associated with skeletal type. This line representing the anterior border of the musculature was used to assess muscle position in the vertical …

Normal Development Of The Aortic Isthmus, Elizabeth Short

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

The development of the aortic isthmus, that region of the arch of the aorta between the left subclavian artery and the attachment of the ligamentum arteriosum, has received little attention. While the developmental history of the ductus arteriosus and foramen ovale has been well documented, as have the cardiac malformations associated with failure to complete this developmental sequence, little work has been done to define the normal sequence of isthmus development in its transition to an adult configuration in the postnatal period. It has long been recognized that the cardiac malformation known as infantile or preductal coarctation of the aorta …

Critical Analysis Of The Control Of Malignant Effusions With Radioisotopes, Robert M. O'Bryan, Robert W. Talley, Michael J. Brennan, Emiliana San Diego

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Experience with radioisotope therapy at Henry Ford Hospital is reviewed here through critical analysis of results with 105 patients having recurrent malignant effusions. It is concluded that intracavitary isotope administration is of significant benefit and adds to the ease of care and comfort of such patients

The Nature Of Bone Resorption And Formation In Normalcy And Disease, Bruce N. Epker, Harold M. Frost

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Classically, Howship's lacunae and osteoid seams or tissue have been used for microscopic identification of sites of bone osteoclastic and osteoblastic cell activity respectively. Recent transmitted light and blue light fluorescence microscopic study of fresh, undemineralized, specially stained and tetracycline labeled bone specimens have supported this use of these parameters of bone resorption and formation. Reports that the osteoclast is not required for bone resorption are evaluated here; it is concluded that no evidence exsists for resorption of bone tissue without osteoclasts. This does not apply to the perilacunar phenomena observed in certain well-defined situations.

Hematopoietic Colony Forming Cells Of Spleen, Y. Maruyama, J. G. Eichten

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

It was found that isologous spleen cells injected into heavily irradiated recipients produced spleen nodules. The number of nodules or colony-farming-units (CFU) varied with cell dose, and were presumably clonal descendants of a single progenitor cell. The properties of the spleen and bone marrow CFU were compared and it was found that although present in greatly differing concentration, the radiation response and morphological features were similar.

Infection In The Newborn Infant And Its Association With Prolonged Rupture Of The Amniotic Membranes, Philip J. Howard, A. Robert Bauer

Infections in newborn infants should be suspected and treatment started whenever birth is prolonged following rupture of the membranes. These studies show that risk increases as rupture time gets longer. Selected antibiotics at proper dosages are recommended as preventive measures.

Normal and hypophysectomized rats were divided into equal homogeneous groups to determine the effect of cholestyramine, corn oil and cholesterol on the excretion of fecal bile acids and sterols. Bile acid turnover rates, pool sizes, and spectrums were studied and compared.

Normal Serum Protein Levels In Syrian (Golden) Hamsters: Compared With The Protein Levels In Sv 40 Tumor Bearing And Sv 40 Immune Hamsters, Hajime Hayashi, Nansie Sharpless, Gerald A. Logrippo

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A study of 149 hamsters indicates that there are periods in life when the animal is immune to tumor induction by a known virus. By studying normal serum protein levels, standards were established for the adult age and for the tumor forming period. The data emphasize the importance of the immunologic status of the host for virus induction of tumors.
