Current Literature: Titles And Abstracts, Catholic Physicians' Guilds

The Linacre Quarterly

The purpose of this department in The Linacre Quarterly is to make available by titular listing such current articles as are thought to be of particular interest to the Catholic physician by virtue of their medical literature although, of necessity, this source is the most fruitful.

Contributions from readers are invited.

An Anthropometric Study Of The Face And Dentition Of The Apache Indian Population At The Stewart Indian School, Garold D. Becker

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Cephalometric and dental morphology records were obtained from forty-three contemporary Apache Indian subjects (living at the Stewart Boarding School for Indians, Carson City, Nevada) to study the cranial, facial, skeletal and dentitional patterns and compare discriminately to other contemporary North American Indian groups: Pima, Papago, Mayo and Chamula. Materials on other Indian tribes considered were obtained from studies completed at Loma Linda University. The data obtained from dental morphology analysis of the Apache Indian subjects was com pared to the Mongoloid Master Pattern (1-4) as described by Moorrees (1957).

The contemporary Apache Indian conformed to the Mongoloid Master Pattern for …

A Systematic Approach To The Evaluation And Treatment Of Marital Problems, George Kriegman

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The collaboration of two persons of the opposite sex is a part of the natural sequence of human development and involves the integration of psychodynamic factors and group dynamics. Marriage can be classified into three general types: harmonious, adjusted, and disharmonious. The disharmonious group is classified according to the predominant security operations of the spouse into seven categories. The group dynamics are presented in terms of role functions following Spiegel's (1957) classification of role discrepancies and role resolution, emphasizing the concepts of complementarity and equilibration. The diagnostic evaluation of the personality structure is outlined in terms of the operative level …

The Natural History Of Diabetes, H. St. George Tucker Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The familial tendency of diabetes has been recognized for centuries. The genetic studies of Pincus and White (1933), Steinberg and Wilder (1952), Post (1962), and others seem to indicate that diabetes is transmitted as a simple autosomal recessive trait. If this is so, it is obvious that the tendency to diabetes must be established at the moment of conception. What does this tendency to diabetes consist of, and what determines when the disease we have called "diabetes" will appear? What is the status of the predisposed individual prior to the onset of overt diabetes?

The State Of Insulin In The Blood, Thaddeus E. Prout

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Diabetes mellitus has been reviewed as a group of conditions with impaired function of one or more portions of a feed-back system involving the release and utilization of insulin. It is hoped that this may form a useful scheme by which we can study and understand a number of complex metabolic states which we must still collectively refer to as diabetes mellitus.

Some Effects Of Extreme Shortening On Frog Skeletal Muscle, Sibyl F. Street, Michael N. Sheridan, Robert W. Ramsey

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

We have established that the sarcolemma of frog skeletal muscle is so firmly tied in at each sarcomere level near the M line, as well as near the Z line, that it is thrown into folds or festoons when the fibers shorten. The attachment is not broken even when the fibers shorten to 25% of optimum tension length. Such extreme shortening affects both the morphology and physiology of the muscle; the morphological change seems to be limited to the myofilaments. The physiological effects in frog sartorius muscle include an increase in resting oxygen consumption and changes in the relation between …

Inappropriate Antidiuresis: Examples Of An Hyponatremic Syndrome Resembling Exogenous Vasopressin Administration In Man, Eugene L. Klingler, Joseph H. Magee, John D. Bower, Richard H. Kirkland, Ruben G. Lancestremere

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

We have reviewed some of the features of hyponatremic syndromes, unassociated with sodium retention and edema, but associated with primary water retention. The syndromes were probably caused by excessive vasopressin activity, in the presence of normal circulatory, renal and adreno-cortical function. Underlying diseases, including bronchogenic carcinoma, head injury, and tuberculous meningitis, illustrated the diverse etiologic bases of this condition.

Brains Of Prominent People: History, Facts And Significance, Walther Riese

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In conclusion, in the brains of outstanding right-handed people (Haeckel, Monakow, Pilsudski) the more complicated convolutional and fissural patterns were found on the left hemisphere; in those of outstanding left-handed people (Menzel, Edinger) on the right one. The second brain reported here revealed some overdevelopments on the right, others on the left hemisphere. Strangely enough, very little is known about side-differences in the average brain. It seems that the middle frontal convolution and the inferior parietal lobe are more developed on the right hemisphere, the inferior frontal convolution on the left one. Nothing is known about the handedness of the …

A Ranking Test In The Biological Sciences, Kenneth Mullen

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Laboratory analyses of biological materials are ranked in order of magnitude and summed across materials to give a list of laboratory scores. Under the assumed hypothesis that there is in fact no difference between laboratories, Monte-Carlo techniques are used to establish two-tailed 5% rejection limits for various combinations of laboratories and materials. The hypothesis that there is no difference between laboratories is rejected if any laboratory's score lies outside the 5% limits. Suppose that one needs to run a group of tests on a particular set of materials (chemical or biological), using a number of different laboratories, and wishes to …

Applications Of Computers To Medicine, Edward N. Brandt Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The purpose of this paper is to present an over-view of current applications of computers to problems in medicine and not to discuss any specific application in detail. This discussion will be concerned only with digital computers. The modern digital computer is not very old. As a matter of fact, digital computers as we know them date from approximately 1949. Yet in this short span of time they have contributed to almost every sphere of man's activities. Computers have been applied to medical problems since about 1956, and have played an important role in increasing both the depth and breadth …

Editorial: Responsibilities Of Scientists--A Closer Look, Fairfield Goodale Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

From a reading of today's lay and scientific press, one must conclude that scientists are most important people. And, indeed, the signs of their beneficence are on every hand--rapid travel, instant communication, globe-encircling rockets, moon probes, food surpluses, longer life spans, and all manner of creature comforts which by now are taken for granted. Verily, ours is the age of scientific marvels and we are in the debt of those who have made it possible.
