Complications Of Treated Cushing's Syndrome, Lewis B. Morrow, Raymond C. Mellinger, M. Saeed Zafar, Richmond W. Smith Jr.

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Fifty-two patients with Cushing's syndrome are reported with emphasis on post treatment complications. Seven patients, cured of their disease following appropriate therapy, had a recurrence of adrenal hypersecretion from one to ten years later. This occurred after all modalities of treatment, but was more common after sub-total adrenalectomy. Pituitary adenomas were found in two cases. Pseudotumor cerebri, psychiatnc complications, hyperthyroidism and hyperpigmentation were observed. One patient developed progressive hyperplgmentation despite pituitary radiation. Thirteen of fifty-two patients had malignant disease including three endometrial carcinomas, one rectal carcinoma and one adenocarcinoma of the mandible. Despite the remarkable improvement In the prognosis for …

Toxic Megacolon In Granulomatous Colitis, K. Anselm, S. A. Rosenblum, V. De Marco

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Acute, toxic dilatation of the colon in granulomatous colitis occurs more frequently than heretofore reported, and is a more serious complication than its counterpart in ulcerative colitis. Twenty-six patients who had toxic megacolon were seen at the Henry Ford Hospital between 1961 and 1971. Fourteen of these had ulcerative colitis and 12 had granulomatous colitis. Coricosteroids were relatively ineffective in these 12 patients and all but two needed surgical intervention. Postoperative complications occurred in two cases, with two deaths. Although the initial clinical picture between the two conditions is identical, the clinical course In those with granulomatous colitis is more …

The Involvement Of Urinary Kallikrein In The Renal Escape From The Sodium Retaining Effect Of Mineralocorticoids, M. Marin-Grez, N. B. Oza, Oscar A. Carretero

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

It is well known that the normal kidney "escapes" the sodium retaining effect of mineralocorticoids. However, the mechanism that mediates this "escape" is not understood. The possible role of kallikrein in this "escape" phenomenon was investigated by placing seven dogs in metabolic cages and giving them a constant sodium diet. After they had been on this diet three days, urine was collected for two 24-hour periods. DOCA (25 mg/day) was then given intramuscularly for five days. Urine was collected daily during this DOCA period and for two additional 24- hour periods. Urine volume, sodium, potassium, protein, and kallikrein excretion were …

Proteolytic Enzymes Of Lactic Streptococci And Their Use In Improving Body And Texture Of Direct Acid Cottage Cheese, Gulamnabi Y. Vahora

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Proteolytic activity of Streptococcus cremoris HP, P₂ and AM₂; Streptococcus lactis-C₂, ML₈ and a commercial mixed culture was determined in skimmilk and whey by measuring the increase in Absorbency at 274.5 nm of a pH 4.6 soluble filtrate, following incubation in a 2.5% casein solution. Proteolytic activity, rate of acid production and growth rate decreased in order of C₂, HP, mixed culture, AM₂, ML₈ and P₂ at a regulated pH (6.1 - 6.2) and 32 C. Maximum proteolytic activity for all cultures was found during the stationary …

The Effect Of Psyllium Hydrocolloid And Cholestyramine On Hepatic Bile Lipid Composition In Man, W. T. Beher, B. M. Schuman, M. A. Block, G. J. Lin, K. K. Casazza

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The effects of a mucoid - psyllium hydrocolloid - and an anion exchange polymercholestryamine - on the total cholesterol, total phospholipid, total bile salt, cholate, chenodeoxycholate, and deoxycholate concentrations of hepatic bile were determined in six post-cholecystectomy patients. Bile was obtained by drainage through an indwelling T-tube, which was clamped except during bile collection. Psyllium hydrocolloid treatment (12 gm/day) for 6 to 29 days had little or no effect on the cholesterol or phospholipid concentration of hepatic bile, but increased the total bile salt pool by gradually increasing the concentration of deoxycholate. Cholestyramine treatment (12 gm/day) for 8 to 12 …

Purpura Arthralgia Weakness Mixed Cryoglobulinemia Syndrome Treated With Splenectomy: A Case Report, Carl R. Haeger

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Weakness purpura mixed arthralgia cryoglobinemia (IgG - IgM) syndrome was first described by Meltzer in 1966. Such a case was recently reported after treatment with Cyclophosphamide and subsequent splenectomy for pancytopenia with beneficial effects on the cryocrit. The patient reported here underwent splenectomy without Cyclophosphamide and had subsequent amelioration of the clinical symptoms. Abnormal plasma cells found in the spleen presumably were responsible (at least in part) for the patient's symptomatology.

Malignant Histiocytosis Of The Robb-Smith Type (Histiocytic Medullary Reticulosis), Michael F. Macken, Ellis J. Van Slyck, Sheik M. Saeed

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A 60-year-old woman developed high fever, jaundice, anemia with pancytopenia and hepatosplenomegaly. She deteriorated rapidly and died one month later, having shown no beneficial effect from high dose corticosteroids and splenectomy. An antemortem diagnosis of malignant histiocytosis of the Robb-Smith type was made and duly confirmed by autopsy study. This rare disorder of the reticuloendothelial system, heretofore designated "histiocytic medullary reticulosis," deserves recognition and inclusion among the histiocytic diseases and in the classification of the lymphomas. Its proper nosologic designation is suggested.

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.
