A Survey Of Laboratory Programs For First Year Medical Students, James L. Poland, Kenneth E. Guyer Jr., Hugo R. Seibel

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Basic science courses offered to freshmen medical students have been traditionally taught by didactic presentations and laboratory work. Various factors have prompted many departments to either markedly reduce the time allotted for the traditional, but more vulnerable, laboratory phase of these courses or drastically alter the content of the laboratory programs. Information concerning the desirability for such changes is incomplete and no evaluation has been developed to determine the effectiveness of change. Before beginning any further alterations in the laboratory programs at the Medical College of Virginia, it seemed desirable to determine anew what we wish to teach in the …

Neoplasms Of The Internal Auditory Canal, James R. Leonard, Marion L. Talbot

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Histopathological studies of tumors of the temporal bone are scarce. The authors examined a relatively large number of sectioned human temporal bones in search of small asymptomatic acoustic neurilemmomata and have reported the findings (Leonard and Talbot, 1970). During that search, several other neoplasms were encountered in the internal auditory canal. This report presents a clinical and pathological review of these lesions.

Pathogenesis Of Secondary Anemia, Peter Reizenstein

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In patients with tissue damage of a malignant, infectious, inflammatory, ischemic or surgical nature, the plasma elimination (PE) of folates, iron, albumin, and cholesterol appears to be increased. Not all substances have been studied in diagnostic groups.

Gynecological Problems Of Adolescents, John A. Board

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In childhood, prior to adolescence, vaginal bleeding is only rarely a problem. During adolescence, however, vaginal bleeding (or the lack of it) is a common complaint.

Psychological Aspects Fo The Management Of Adolescents With Malignancy, Charlene P. Holton

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

The approach to total patient care in a teenager with malignant disease represents one of the greatest challenges to any physician. To bridge the generation gap and communicate in an area of medicine where we cannot always cure, but often only palliate, guide, comfort and listen, is often difficult for we physicians who are so often taught only how to win therapeutic battles. Malignancy is the leading medical cause of death in the 10-21 year age group in the United States. Leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, bone and brain tumors are the most commonly encountered forms of cancer during this period (Heald, …

Techniques Of Bedside Pacing, Leonard S. Dreifus

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In temporary pacing the primary approach is transvenous--either percutaneous or via a cutdown in the jugular or brachial vein system. Tripolar and quadripolar pacemaker catheters which have been used for His bundle recordings are now obtainable as well as the bipolar variety. Among the latter is the floating catheter which may also be used as an intracavitary electrocardiogram. Doctor Furman of New York City has been extremely successful with this type in approximately 500 patients.

An Exploratory Study To Determine The Emotional Needs Of Terminally Ill Patients, June Hudnall Turnage

Theses and Dissertations

The problem to be investigated is: What are the emotional needs of patients, who are approaching death, as revealed by the patients themselves? The review of literature pointed out that almost all the data published about the dying patient were the thoughts of those around him rather than his own thoughts. Since the patient is our concern, it would seem logical to ask him what his needs are.

Nurses recognize as one of their responsibilities of assisting a patient toward a peaceful death when curative goals are beyond grasp. If the patient dies and his needs are not met, or …

As I Remember, William T. Sanger

An Easy Access Interactive Statistical System For Use And Training In Biometry, Amos Addison Slaymaker Jr.

Theses and Dissertations

One of the most important tools of the applied statistician is the digital computer. It is natural, therefore, for the instructor in applied statistics to want his students to become familiar with the use of computers. If his students are going to get actual experience in using a computer for statistical analysis, he often has only two alternatives. The students can be required to write their own statistical programs or they can use programs already available through a computer facility.

If the course is to be taught such that each student is responsible for his own programs, the instructor must …

Differential Effects Of Reward And Punishment On Subsequent Altruistic Behavior, Sharon Browning

Theses and Dissertations

In today's complex society, no one can be independent and survive; people must help others. There appear to be limits on help giving or at least some conditions under which help is not given. For example, why did thirty-eight people stand silently and watch Kitty Genovese being murdered without one person calling the police or offering any assistance? In addition to making people more interdependent, our rapidly expanding technological society may also account for increased im-personalization and accompanying apathy and alienation. However, the research which has been done in the area of altruism or helping behavior seems to indicate that …

A Variation Of The Standard Steepest Ascent Search Procedure For Response Surface Experiments, George Whitfield Cobb

Theses and Dissertations

The results of this chapter lead to a modification of the standard stopping rule which breathes new life into the method of steepest ascent, but which is unfortunately not sufficient to effect a total resuscitation. As expected, there is no uniformly optimum stopping rule, nor even a uniformly best test statistic; both the optimum statistic and the optimum test level depend on the model parameters y1 and y2. One can, however, adopt a compromise rule which works reasonably well for all parameter combinations by testing at the 25% level with the statistic zn = 1/2(yn -yn-2). In many cases the …

Glycogen Levels In Cardiac And Skeletal Muscle Of Rats Recovering From Exercise, Walter Talley Judd

Theses and Dissertations

In seeking answers to questions about how the human body functions under stressful situations, scientists, coaches, doctors, and athletes in general have all wondered about the role of exercise in the maintenance of good health. Good cardiovascular health, especially, is sought ardently, as it appears to be a major key to overall body fitness. Good cardiovascular health appears to go hand-in-hand with proper diet, proper rest, and proper exercise (1, 2).

The exercise phenomenon has attracted much attention and poses many questions. Just what is occurring when a person or an animal gets "in shape" by exercising. What bodily changes …
