Distribution And Proportion Of Immunoreactive Neuron Specific Enoclase Containing Cells In The Rat Pineal Gland, Alfonso Miranda C.

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The distribution and proportion of cytoplasm containing immunoreactive neuron specific enolase (NSE) in the rat pineal have been investigated. Step serial sections of the pineal glands of 7 male Sprague-Dawley rats were stained for NSE using an indirect immunoperoxidase method. The volumes of the pineals and of the regions containing reactive cells were derived from the distance between sections and the sum of the corresponding sectional areas of camera lucida drawings. The proportion of the NSE areas actually consisting of NSE reactive cytoplasm was measured using an image array processor.

Cytoplasm reactive for NSE was consistently localized to the posterior …

Psychological Viewpoints Of The Disabled To Physical Disability, 牧貞 楊, 倚南 連

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

肢體殘障不僅對殘障者本身以及病人家屬有所影響，同時殘障者對它的看法亦會直接影響復健工作的進行。各國殘障者對生理殘障又因社會文化，經濟背景等的相異，而各有不同的看法。關於這問題，過去外國雖有研究，我國卻鮮有報告，值得我們去探討。本研究乃對十名因中風偏癱病人，十名因脊髓損傷下身癱瘓病人以及十名截肢病人，採用當面問卷方式，調查其對生理殘障的看法，作為今後復健工作的參考。結果發現大多數的病人，認為因脊髓損傷無法坐或站是最嚴重的問題，以下依次為雙臂癱瘓，因內臟疾病無法坐或站，雙手切除，雙眼全盲，雙腿癱瘓，雙腿完全切除，偏癱，一手一腿切除，最不嚴重的是容貌的殘缺。除了病人本身因生理殘障不同，看法略有不一樣外，病人對殘障的看法亦受到年齡的影響，同時似乎與疾病在目前能否醫療，能否復健有密切關係。另外，在本研究中發現，死亡所引起的心理壓力有很大的變異性，且病人的年齡，殘障的類型並不影響其對死亡的看法。

Serum Creatine Kinase Activity And Its Isoenzymes In Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Chue-Fun Chen, I-Nan Lien, Fung-Jou Lu

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

Serum creatine phosphokinase (CK) and its three isoenzymes (CK-MM, CK-MB and CK-BB types) were studied on 23 patients with well-defined Duchenne muscular dystrophy and 24 normal subjects. The cardiac status of the patients was evaluated with ECG examination. The functional capacity of each patient was evaluated and divided into 9 calsses.The CK activities (IU/L) of the patients were significantly higher than those of the normal subjects (p＜0.05). CK isoenzyme analysis with electrophoresis on cellulose acetate revaled that the sera of the 24 normal subjects contained only CK-MM isoenzyme. In addition to CK-MM isoenzyme, CK-MB isoenzyme was present in 20 case …

The Effect Of Orally Administered Butylated Hydroxytoluene On Herpes Simplex Keratitis, Donald Carson

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Some studies have reported in vitro inactivation of membrane enveloped viruses by Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). This study investigates the effect of orally administered BHT on primary infections of Herpes simplex virus (HSV) using rabbit corneas as the assay system.

Assigned levels of BHT were incorporated into the diet of New Zealand White rabbits with HSV-1 McKrae strain on the corneal surface of the eyes. The degree of infection was measured by a subjective assay. Rabbits receiving BHT in their diet consistently experienced lower levels of infection. The interpretation of this data is that orally administered BHT can be an effective …
