Adjustment To Psycho-Social Stress, John William Carnes

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between adjustment to life-event stressors and selected psycho-social variables. Recent research has consistently identified an etiological link between stressful life-events and physical and/or emotional disorders. It has often been noted, however, that exposure to seemingly identical stressors results in varying levels of adjustment among individuals. Lazarus (1966, 1967, 1971, 1974) has proposed that variations in stress responses are attributable to differences relative to the implicated individual's appraised threat from the stressor. Based on this conceptualization, adjustment to stressful life-events was selected as the dependent variable for the study. Five independent …

Legal Representation Of The Mentally Ill, James R. Elkins

West Virginia Law Review

The "rights revolution," sparked by the United States Supreme Court under the leadership of former Chief Justice Earl Warren, has abated as the Court modifies and in some instances emasculates the constitutional rights afforded criminal defendants. While the Supreme Court assumes a more “moderate" position regarding the rights of criminal defendants and takes a closer look at due process decisions generally, the "rights revolution" has had substantial spillover effect in the case of individuals confined involuntarily in mental institutions. The courts, especially federal courts, have recognized the constitutional basis of procedural and substantive safeguards for individuals subject to commitment in …

The Synthesis And Evaluation Of The Potential Antineoplastic Activity Of The Semicarbazone And The Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives Of The Di-2-Pyridyl Ketone And The 1,8-Diazafluorenone Ring Systems, Adriene Y. Principe

Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations

A number of' a-(N)-heterocyclic thiosemicarbazones have been synthesized and evaluated for potential antineoplastic activity since Brockman and colleagues2 reported the antineoplastic activity of' 2-f'ormylpyridine thiosemicarbazone (1). The primary objective of' this research project has been the synthesis and characterization of' the semicarbazone and the thiosemicarbazone derivatives of' the di-2-pyridyl ketone, (9-a) and (9-b), and the 1,8-diazaf'luorenone, (10-a) and (10-b), ring systems, as well as the evaluation of' these compounds for both in vitro and in vivo antineoplastic activity against Ehrlich ascites tumor cells in mice. These studies have suggested that di-2-pyridyl ketone thiosemicarbazone (9-b) is as effective as 2-formylpyridine …

Lymphocytes: 1979, Sudhir Gupta, Robert A. Good

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Rapid progress has been made in understanding the complexity of the immune system. The current status of lymphocyte subpopulations with regard to ontogenic development, their surface and intracellular markers, and functions in various Immunologic phenomena has been reviewed. Heterogeneity of T lymphocytes as defined by receptors for immunoglobulin isotypes is discussed in detail. Various cell types and their products involved in immunoregulatlon are also presented.

A Method For Evaluating The Platelet Surface Response By Using Electron Microscopy, Jeanne M. Riddle

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Our method for evaluating the surface response of any given platelet population, which has evolved over the past two decades, provides a measure of both the adhesive and cohesive qualities of platelets. General morphologic features of the adherent, whole platelets can be assessed by transmission electron microscopy, and the results are reproducible when serial samples are collected on normal subjects and patient groups. With this technique, different metabolites and drugs can be combined with platelet populations that are either normoresponsive or hyperactive to determine if these substances trigger or inhibit the platelet response. To date, the results from in vitro …

Functions And Interrelationships Of Leukocytes In Inflammation As Elucidated By The Rebuck Skin Window Technique, Sheikh M. Saeed

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This article provides an overview of the functions of human leukocytes in inflammation as elucidated by the Rebuck skin window technique. The migration sequence of various leukocytes into the field of inflammation is described, as well as cytologic, cytochemical, and transformational changes, and the interrelationships of responding leukocytes. Since it was introduced in 1955, the Rebuck skin window technique has provided an excellent means of studying in vivo inflammatory response to different phlogistic agents in normal individuals and in various disease states. This simple technique continues to prove fruitful to further study and to monitoring of many disease states.

Igg Lymphoplasmacytic Intestinal Lymphoma: A Case Report, Heidrun Z. Rotterdam, Sheldon C. Sommers

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

We describe a rare case of a localized primary small intestinal lymphoma with features of both the Mediterranean and the Western type. This case demonstrates the need to regard intestinal lymphoma as a spectrum of diseases with the Mediterranean and the Western types at opposite ends and many variants in between. The role of the plasma cell infiltrate has been interpreted as reactive as well as neoplastic. In our case, both lymphocytic and plasmacytic proliferations spread widely in the intestinal submucosa, extended into muscularis propria and subserosal fat, and involved mesenteric lymph nodes. Direct immunofluorescence demonstrated IgG-kappa both in plasma …

The Role Of High Molecular Weight Kininogen (Fitzgerald Factor) In The Activation Of Various Plasma Proteolytic Enzyme Systems, R. Waldmann, A. G. Scicli, J. Guimaraes, G. Scicli, Oscar A. Carretero, H. Kato, Y. N. Han, S. Iwanaga

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Bovine high molecular weight kininogen (bHMWK) partially corrects the aPTT of Fitzgerald-trait plasma, which is congenitally deficient in HMWK. The relationship between the structure and activity of HMWK was clarified by studying the effects of different fragments of bHMWK on the aPTT of Fitzgerald-trait plasma. The peptides studied, all in equimolar concentrations, were lys-bradykinin-free HMWK, bradyk In In-fragment 1-2-tree HMWK, heavy chain, fragment 1 -2-Hght chain, and light chain. Bradykinin- fragment 1-2-free HMWK, heavy chain, and light chain have little or no correcting activity upon Eitzgeraldtrait plasma aPTT. Fragment 1-2 light chain has the same correcting activity as intact bHMWK, …

Detection Of Unique Tumor-Associated Proteins In The Urine Of Patients With Transitional Cell Carcinoma By High Resolution Two-Dimensional Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis, Robert David Lehman

Biological Sciences Theses & Dissertations

A two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic technique was developed for the detection of unique tumor-associated proteins in urine of patients with transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urinary bladder. This technique yielded high resolution of polypeptides in the urine of cancer patients. Urine was chosen as a source of tumor-associated components because the location of the tum or should release already solublized tum or substances in to the urine.

Urinary proteins were concentrated and then analyzed by the two - dimensional electrophoretic technique using isoelectric focusing in the first dimension and sodium dodecylsulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the second dimension. …
