Management Of Severe Asthma, William B. Hunt Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In this summary of therapy for severe asthma there is no mention of etiologic factors. The author presumes that if infection is the primary factor in the progression to severe asthma that this will be recognized and appropriately treated. A chest x-ray must be an initial laboratory study for the recognition of pneumonia or complicating pneumothorax. However, unlike respiratory failure due to emphysema, here the specific therapy of the altered pulmonary physiology is of paramount importance.

Psychiatric Problems In Urology, James L. Mathis

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In summary, the urologist cannot escape from a major responsibility for his patients' emotional components. The very area of his work is highly charged with emotional potential, primarily of a sexual nature. A careful sexual history is essential to the full understanding of the symptoms of many urological complaints and is equally necessary for the prevention of emotional complications to genital surgery.

The Urologist And The Law, Jack B. Russell

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Some of the matters I have referred to may seem unusual or unlikely and thus may not be long remembered. Let me reiterate, however, the importance of two items in particular. If nothing else remains long in your minds, do not forget that complete and adequate records are essential, both in the hospital and in the office. Nothing else will take their place when they are needed. Finally, keep in mind always the significance of informed consent. It is a rapidly changing principle and one which touches literally every field of medicine. It may be difficult to accept in all …

Advancing Technology Of Clinical Laboratory Practice, George Z. Williams

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In spite of the temporary antitechnology attitude of a portion of our society, the future will be an era of automated technology. Buckminster Fuller has reviewed the progress of industrial technology and points out that continuing scientific advances are inevitable and that technical applications will provide more equitable distribution of wealth, more time, more opportunity for education and intellectual pursuits.

The Optimum Treatment For Undescended Testis, John K. Lattimer

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In summary, there are many reasons why orchiopexy should be done, and certainly, the cancer worry is a very distinct one. Yet, I think the psychological reason, the "locker room appearance" situation, is the most frequent, and therefore, an important factor. I do think that we should exercise our favored position of being able to offer hormone treatment first. If that does not work, then go on with surgery as required. The timing, in my opinion, should be to start at the fourth birthday and to have the program completed by the fifth birthday. Although physiological considerations do enter into …

WKU Administration Documents

Articles written by honors program students. They were originally research projects, class papers or essays written for academic credit, but in each case the student has done further work editing and improving his or her manuscript for this publication. The articles represent a broad range of interests and disciplines, and they indicate a healthy attempt on the part of at least some students to dig for deeper knowledge and understanding than is usually associated with undergraduate study.

Surgery Of The Genitalia In Children, Charles J. Devine

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

I shall confine my paper to the external male genitalia. Most of the problems that we have dealt with have been congenital from simple meatal strictures to more severe, although not necessarily more serious, situations. In the last 18 years, I have worked closely with Dr. Charles Horton, and much of this report represents our joint efforts.

Verbal Reward & Punishment & Need For Approval In Schizophrenics, Chester Gay Jr.

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The current study was designed to further examine the effects of verbal reward and punishment on task performance of schizophrenics. The relationship of need for approval of schizophrenics (as measured by the M-C SDS) to performance and to reward and punishment was also examined. Verbal reward and punishment along with need for approval served as independent variables. Task performance was the dependent variable. The following major questions were asked:

1. Does verbal reward and punishment significantly influence performance of schizophrenics?
2. How is the personality construct, need for approval, related to performance of tasks by schizophrenics?
3. Is there a significant interaction between …

A Study Of A Token Economy Program Initiated At Oregon State Hospital, Helenjane R. Kudelko

Dissertations and Theses

The purpose of this study was to evaluate a token economy program at Oregon State Hospital in terms of patients’ behavioral improvement during the first seventy days of the program. As the study progressed, it became apparent that a study of the problems involved in initiating this program would be significant. Thus an attempt has been made to evaluate both the patients’ behavioral improvement and the problems involved in setting up an effective token economy program.

Prior to the June 1, 1972 reorganization of the hospital, the county geographical unit system had been in effect for approximately eleven years. On …

The Effects Of Acute Stress On Adrenal Ascorbic Acid Levels, Robert Joseph Collier

Masters Theses

The diurnal rhythm of adrenal ascorbic acid (DAR) displays an inverse relationship to the diurnal rhythm of circulating levels of plasma corticosteroids. Alloxan monohydrate, 175 mg/kg body weight was given subcutaneously to albino rats to determine the effect of the diabetic state on the DAR. A total of 200 female albino rats were divided into two study groups. Study Group I was composed of 150 animals divided into populations of 15, each including 3 controls. Study Group II was composed of populations of 5, each group containing all controls or all alloxinated rats. The populations of 15 were sacrificed at …

Warble Tone As An Audiometric Stimulus, Gary Dean Dockum

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The warble tone, as an auditory stimulus, is apparently being used in a number of clinical settings. However, it is being used without knowledge of possible threshold differences which may exist between it and the pure tone stimulus. Recent studies comparing the two stimuli have been limited to extremely small samples and to only trained listeners. Also, they provide mostly theoretical information based on the effect of various warble parameters on warble tone thresholds. The purpose of the present study was to compare obtained pure tone and warble tone thresholds for a large group of normal-hearing inexperienced listeners while using …
