Inhibition Of Kidney Mitochondrial Monoamine Oxidase Activity By The Nephrosis-Producing Aminonucleoside Of Puromycin, Paul Bartlett, Mei-Hwa Tu, Kathleen Ashworth

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Intraperitoneal administration in rats of a single large injection of the potent nephrotogenic aminonucleoside,6-dimethylamino-9-(3'-amino-3' =deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-purine, resulted in striking reductions in kidney cortex mitochondrial monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity, assayed on tyramine substrate The alterations in enzymatic activity correlated remarkably well with the onset and development of the massive proteinuria characteristic of the disease. The inhibitory effects were also produced in vitro, and Lineweaver-Burk reciprocal plots were clearly indicative of non-competitive inhibition. It is suggested that aminonucleoside inhibition of kidney mitochondrial MAO activity may be a biochemical lesion in the primary step of GBM collagen cross-link formation, whereby collagen fibrillogenesis is impaired …

An Investigation Of Between-Ear Tympanometry Measures In Normal-Hearing Young Adults, Barry Lynn Kimmel

Dissertations and Theses

In recent years, tympanometry has been used to provide objective and definitive information regarding the status of middle ear conditions and functions. The present standard for tympanometric normalcy is based upon between-subject measures. This standard, however, does not allow precise differentiation between normal and pathological tympanometry curves. A within-subject comparison of right and left ear tympanometry curves of normal-hearing subjects could provide a narrow standard of tympanometric normalcy which would be more useful in differentiating between pathologic and non-pathologic middle ear function. The within-subject relationship between tympanometry curves for right and left ears was investigated by comparing the individual right …

The Possible Causes And Remediation Of Inverted Vision, Archie J. Beamer

All Master's Theses

The primary purpose of this investigation was to determine possible corrective methods for inverted vision. The visual problem is usually outgrown in the early teens, but these children who experience the problem tend to be classified as retarded because they cannot read. An intensive research of the literature for possible causes and corrective methods revealed inconclusive proof. However, two boys who were diagnosed to have inverted vision were given perceptual training exercises. The subjects responded to the treatment and in a short time were started on a reading readiness program. Although only two cases were found on which to experiment, …

Effects Of Certain Linguistic Parameters Upon The Responses Of Preschool Subjects To Specific Dichotic Listening Tasks, Peggy J. Weber

Dissertations and Theses

Listening, as a communication skill, is an essential factor in the normal language development of the' child. Until recently, however, there has been very little research conducted concerning the linguistic parameters that influence the ability to listen. Thus, this investigation was designed to study the effects of two linguistic parameters, construction and semantic constraints on the verbal responses of preschool children in a dichotic listening task.

Fifteen children, between the ages of 5-3 to 6-8, were presented with four dichotic listening tasks consisting of 80 stimuli, (40 sentences and 40 pseudo-sentences). The children were asked to report the message delivered …

An Investigation Of Temporary Threshold Shift Among Helmeted Motorcycle Riders, Alamander Hicks

Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of the present study involved the investigation of the significance of wind noise as a contributing factor toward temporary threshold shifts among a select sample of motorcycle riders. Five normal-hearing, helmeted, female subjects were administered pure-tone air-conduction hearing tests immediately before and within 2 minutes after exposure to three noise-related aspects of motorcycle riding. The amount of hearing loss present at 3k, 4k and 6k Hz after each 20 minute exposure condition was recorded as the TTS for that subject. The three conditions consisted of motorcycle noise only, wind noise only and motorcycle and wind noise combined. A …

The Effect Of Kinesthetic And Demonstration Techniques Of Instruction Upon Standing Broad Jump Performance, Howard Philip Meyer

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies

A test of standing broad jump ability was administered to ninety-three sixth grade boys to compare the kinesthetic and demonstration methods of instruction. The subjects were classified on the Neilson-Cozens Classification Index and divided into three groups. The first group received the kinesthetic method of instruction, the second group was instructed using the demonstration method, and the third group did not receive any formal instruction.

The data were examined by computing the mean and standard deviation of each pre-test and post-test group. The mean and standard deviation of the pre-test scores were 60.61 and 7.589. The mean and standard deviation …

Genetic Counseling For Hemoglobinopathies: A Model For Large Scale Application, Charles E. Jackson, Esly S. Caldwell, Ellis J. Van Slyck

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This report describes a project in a large urban, predominantly black, high school which combined a hemoglobinopathy survey with an educational and genetic counseling emphasis. The faculty and students received information on sickle cell disease explaining its genetic and personal implications. About 29% of the 2,700 students received parental permission and volunteered for blood tests in the initial year. Blood was examined by starch gel electrophoresis during the first year and by cellulose acetate electrophoresis during the second year. Of the 1300 total individuals studied, 7% were found to have sickle cell trait and 2% hemoglobin C trait. The cellulose …

Pins In A Composite : Their Effects On The Strength Of The Material, Milton Latoni-Camarena

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The influence of pins on the compression and tensile strength of a composite resin was measured.

Compression strength was measured in cylindrical samples 8 mm long and 4 mm in diameter, using different size threaded stainless steel pins. The tensile strength was determined by compression along the diameter of cylindrical samples containing different sizes and orientations of threaded stainless steel pins.

The conventional dumbbell tensile strength was measured by pulling the mounted specimens in the direction of their long axis, using non-threaded pins.

These tests demonstrated that the compressive strength of the composite was increased 10 percent when the large …

Patients' Reactions To Witnessing Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation, Lynn Andree Finch

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to describe the reactions to stress in patients witnessing a cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, in order to determine if the witnessing patients' needs are being met adequately, and to determine the effect of a specific psychological stressor on patients.

All resuscitations ("STATS") done over a two-month period at Loma Linda University Medical Center, with oriented patients in the room, were observed and recorded on an Observation Guide. A Questionnaire was also solicited from medical-surgical nursing personnel who had observed "STATS" with witnessing patients in the last three months. The Guide and the Questionnaire were developed from …
