Abstract

We compared two regimens with respect to their ability to prolong disease-free survival in 506 children and adolescents with acute lymphocytic leukemia. All responders to induction therapy were randomized to treatment with 2400 rad of cranial irradiation plus intrathecal methotrexate or to treatment with intermediate-dose methotrexate plus intrathecal methotrexate, as prophylaxis for involvement of the central nervous system and other "sanctuary" areas. Patients were then treated with a standard maintenance regimen. Complete responders were stratified into either standard-risk or increased-risk groups on the basis of age and white-cell count at presentation.

Among patients with standard risk, hematologic relapses occurred …

Wrongful Life And Wrong Rules: Abuse Of The Normal Range Concept, James W. Winkelman

Syracuse Scholar (1979-1991)

James W. Winkelman, M.D., is Professor of Pathology and Director of Laboratories at the State University of New York Upstate Medical Center. Despite the tempering influence of education at the University of Chicago (B.A.) and the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine (M.D.), he is inclined to become embroiled in topics just beyond his primary expertise. This exercise in law and government developed from personal experiences.

The Development And Evaluation Of A Seminar For Teachers On The Awareness And Management Of Allergic Conditions Of Their Students In The Classroom, Elwin C. Munson

Dissertations

Problem. Many children with allergic problems go without treatment because their problems go unrecognized by both their parents and teachers. The purpose of this project was to bring about change on the part of teachers enabling them better to address allergic problems in their students. Literature was reviewed with respect to allergies and with respect to the use of inservice seminars for teachers. The posttest means for all three areas of measurement of the seminar group and control group were adjusted for pretest scores by analysis of covariance which indicated a significant difference in favor of the seminar group in …

Familial Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis In Blacks, Jack M. Bernstein, Michael Kleerekoper

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is an uncommon disease that has rarely been reported in blacks. Historical, clinical, and pathological findings in three black patients, in addition to those previously reported in the literature, suggest that the spectrum of the disease is identical in both blacks and whites. Considering the disease as either different or unknown in the black population is probably not justified.

Acid Phosphatase: Clinical Utility Of The First Tumor Marker, Christopher J. Dipaolo, Jan Rival

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Acid phosphatase was the first tumor marker to be measured in blood. Although it is used as a marker of prostatic carcinoma, serum levels are also elevated in many diseases of prostate, bone, and hematologic tissue. While serum acid phosphatase concentration is elevated in patients with prostatic carcinoma or infarction, it may also be increased merely with benign hypertrophy and after prostate massage. Recent studies demonstrate that levels are not significantly increased after routine rectal examination. Although of limited use as a screening test, the assay may be useful in staging, prognostication during hormonal therapy, and in making clinical decisions. …

Observation Of Bone Formation In The Mandibular Symphysis Following Surgical Separation And Slow Mechanical Expansion In A Baboon, Robert J. Homer

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Mechanical expansion of the maxilla, at the midline suture, is a widely accepted orthodontic procedure used to gain arch width in certain types of maxillary deficient arches.

In animal research on the mandible, techniques using surgical separation at the symphysis with immediate expansion up to 12 mm, fixation with a metal splint, and autogenous bone transplanted into the expanded area, have been reported to be successful.

To date, no experiment utilizing slow mechanical expansion of the mandible at the symphysis has been reported.

In this pilot study, the mandible of a female baboon was surgically separated A-P at the symphysis. …
