Insulin Degradation By Adipose Tissue. Studies At Several Levels Of Cellular Organization, Barry J. Goldstein, James N. Livingston

Department of Medicine Faculty Papers

A systematic study of the degradation of physiological concentrations of ¹²⁵I-labelled insulin was performed in intact fat-pads, isolated adipocytes and subcellular fractions of isolated adipocytes. The findings indicate that insulin is rapidly degraded to low-molecular-weight peptides and/or amino acids by the intact tissue and isolated cells. Of the total insulin-degradation products present after incubation with an intact fat-pad, 94% is recovered in the medium, indicating that these products are not retained by the cells or tissue. The plasma membranes do not degrade insulin significantly in the absence of reduced glutathione, and over 99% of the cellular degradative capacity is …

Antenatal Genetic Studies, Fay Redwine

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The Antenatal Genetic Testing Program at MCV began in 1973. The standard scheme for antenatal genetic testing involves counseling, the methods of carrier detection available, ultrasound, amniocentesis, and laboratory evaluation. Patients are referred because of a family or personal history of a genetic abnormality or because they have been evaluated in a carrier detection program like those for Tay-Sachs disease or Sickle Cell disease and are known carriers. After referral, patients are given genetic counseling by me and members of the Department of Human Genetics; if antenatal genetic testing is deemed appropriate, we obtain informed consent and proceed with an …

Evaluation And Management Of Adnexal Masses, Dean R. Goplerud

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The adnexa are those structures which lie along the uterus, the most important of which are the tubes and ovaries. The portions of the broad ligaments and mesosalpinx which contain embryonic remnant may also, at times, be palpable and therefore must be considered in any differential diagnosis.

Some Psychological Aspects Of Dealing With Cancer, Joel J. Silverman

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Cancer has a potentially profound affect upon the emotional and physical life of the patient and his or her family. For most people the word “cancer” has a fearsome connotation. This discussion explores the areas of self-image, body-image, and personal relationships that are often altered in cancer patients, as well as the emotional and cognitive states which can result from malignancy and its treatment. We will also review some techniques for helping the patient. It is important to remember that the psychological responses to any illness are individual and largely determined by the patient’s past experience, psychological strengths, weaknesses and …

Menstrual Abnormalities, Leo J. Dunn

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Any physician involved in primary care will encounter patients with menstrual dysfunction. Mismanagement of this disorder is not usually the result of its complexity but rather the lack of an orderly approach. In unusual circumstances one may encounter a patient with a menstrual disorder of sufficient complexity to require referral. This decision should be based on a work-up indicating such a need rather than frustration after unsuccessful empiric therapeutic trials.

Identification Of The High-Risk Gravida, Robert E. Petres, Emily M. Coogan

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In the past, there has been considerable pessimism about our ability to identify the pregnant patient at risk. However, with the development of sophisticated diagnostic techniques these patients can be identified and with appropriate treatment their outcome can be improved. This paper presents the overall benefit of categorizing obstetrical patients, the method that has been developed at the Medical College of Virginia (MCV), and certain categories of high-risk obstetrical patients who continue to present problems and have unacceptably high complication rates.

Endometriosis, W. Glenn Hurt, Ray A. Wetheim

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Endometriosis is diagnosed when tissue which resembles the endometrial lining exists outside the endometrial cavity. Although first described as a pathological entity in the late 1800s, the term “endometriosis” was not introduced until the early 1920s by Sampson. The great volume of literature which has accumulated on this topic is, by and large, a product of the 20th century.

Office Endometrial Sampling, Stephen A. Cohen, W. Glenn Hurt

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The concept of office endometrial sampling is not new. Kelly recommended its use in 1925. More recently, the procedure has received increased attention as physicians and the public have sought ways to curb the spiraling cost of medical care. Uterine curettage is the operation most commonly performed on women throughout the world. As an inpatient procedure, it costs $500 to $600. The same procedure performed in an outpatient surgical center costs $350 to $400. In over 90% of cases, an adequate endometrial sample may be obtained in the office at a cost of $50 to $60. For office endometrial sampling …

Introduction, W. Glenn Hurt

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology welcomed the opportunity to present the 51st Annual McGuire Lecture Series. The lectures were designed to provide the primary care physician with information which is clinically useful and applicable to the daily practice of obstetrics and gynecology. An effort was made to achieve a balance between those health problems that have been known for some time but whose understanding has changed and those problems that have been recognized more recently and whose solutions are still evolving.

Urinary Incontinence In Women, J. Andrew Fantl

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The adult bladder and urethra acting as a unit allow for the voluntary dual function of urine collection and evacuation. Urinary continence is an acquired, “learned” state, and normal anatomy and function of the nervous and genitourinary systems are necessary to maintain it. Urinary incontinence is defined as “a condition where involuntary loss of urine is a social or hygienic problem and is objectively demonstrable.” This definition takes into account both sociocultural aspects and the need for objective clinical assessment of urinary leakage. Marked individual variations in physical activity, occupation and hygienic standards call for appropriate clinical judgment when evaluation …
