Basketball Basics, Don J. Odle Jan 1976

Basketball Basics, Don J. Odle

Ayres Special Collection

It has been an interesting experience to me to observe how people learn. Many times we have seen high school and college athletes who play just like their older brothers...they have learned through imitation. Some of our college ball players have certain habits in footwork and as we question them further they respond that their high school coach taught it that way. We have tried to record in this book many experiences with basketball players hoping that the readers of this book might learn something to help them improve some technique of the game or some technique of life.

Current Management Of Parkinsonism, John R. Taylor Jan 1976

Current Management Of Parkinsonism, John R. Taylor

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

In the management of Parkinson’s disease, one must be reasonably certain of the diagnosis. In spite of the foregoing sophisticated biochemistry, there is really no laboratory test for the disease, so it becomes an entity that must be recognized on purely clinical grounds. While the differential diagnosis can be quite extensive and includes such rare entities as manganese poisoning, as well as such usually apparent causes as phenothiazine intoxication or carbon monoxide sequelae, several disorders and etiologies account for most of our diagnostic problems. Although we think of Parkinsonism as a triad of rest tremor, rigidity, and akinesia, the onset …

An Approach To Dizziness, Alan B. Grindal Jan 1976

An Approach To Dizziness, Alan B. Grindal

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Dizziness is a vague and ubiquitous symptom which frequently frustrates and perplexes the clinician. Dizziness in the broad sense implies any unpleasant sensation of disturbed relationship to surrounding objects. A number of synonyms such as faintness, light-headedness, giddiness, and swaying, although descriptive, are often no more specific. Problems in diagnosis, therefore, are due not only to the ambiguity of the term but also to the wide spectrum of disorders in which dizziness may be a prominent symptom. Although disorders of the vestibular system usually receive primary attention, it should be kept in mind that many neurologic, cardiovascular, psychiatric, and other …

Primary Generalized Hyperostosis In Ancient Peru, Marvin J. Allison, Enrique Gerszten, Raul Sotil, Alejandro Pezzia Jan 1976

Primary Generalized Hyperostosis In Ancient Peru, Marvin J. Allison, Enrique Gerszten, Raul Sotil, Alejandro Pezzia

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Primary generalized hyperostosis is a rare disease usually diagnosed by radiographic examination. Uehlinger considers this syndrome to be different from the secondary osteoarthropathy of the Marie-Bamberger variety and Paget’s disease. The primary type is probably of familial origin and may involve all the bones of the body, appearing independently of severe pulmonary disease. It is predominantly a disease of males (29:2) and in some cases is associated with pachydermia. The literature on this disease is primarily European; the case described below is the first in South America and first among pre-Columbian people.

Cutaneous Manifestations Of Venereal Disease, Charles M. Caravati Jr. Jan 1976

Cutaneous Manifestations Of Venereal Disease, Charles M. Caravati Jr.

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

There has been a dramatic increase in the incidence of venereal disease, and these disorders have become one of our major national health problems. It is obvious that if this chain of infection is to be broken, individuals with these diseases must be treated as early as possible in the course of the infection before there is a chance for it to spread to others. We have been implored to help find the sexual contacts of these individuals, and it is essential that we use the excellent epidemiological investigators of our health departments for this purpose.

Morphological Characteristics Of The Pre-Columbian Dentition I. Shovel-Shaped Incisors, Carabelli's Cusp, And Protostylid, Danny R. Sawyer, Marvin J. Allison, Richard P. Elzay, Alejandro Pezzia Jan 1976

Morphological Characteristics Of The Pre-Columbian Dentition I. Shovel-Shaped Incisors, Carabelli's Cusp, And Protostylid, Danny R. Sawyer, Marvin J. Allison, Richard P. Elzay, Alejandro Pezzia

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

This Peruvian-American cooperative study of paleopathology of the pre-Columbian Peruvian cultures of Southern Peru began in 1971. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the medical and dental health status of these cultures which date from 600 BC to the Spanish conquest. While several authors such as Leigh, Moodie, Stewart, and Goaz and Miller have studied the dental morphology of Northern Peruvians, the paleodontology and oral paleopathology of the Southern Peruvians has not been recorded. This paper reports dental findings on the morphologic characteristics of the shovel-shaped incisor, Carabelli’s cusp, and protostylid.

Talon Cusp: A Clinically Significant Anomaly In A Primary Incisor From Pre-Columbian America, Danny R. Sawyer, Marvin J. Allison, Alejandro Pezzia Jan 1976

Talon Cusp: A Clinically Significant Anomaly In A Primary Incisor From Pre-Columbian America, Danny R. Sawyer, Marvin J. Allison, Alejandro Pezzia

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Shafer, Hine, and Levy describe the talon cusp, a structure resembling an eagle’s talon, as a cusp projecting lingually from the cingulum area of a maxillary or mandibular permanent incisor. This cusp blends smoothly with the tooth except that there is a deep developmental groove where the cusp blends with the sloping lingual tooth surface. The cusp is composed of a normal enamel and dentin and contains a horn of pulp tissue.

Ua35/11 Student Honors Bulletin, Vol. Iv, Wku Honors Program

WKU Administration Documents

The articles, all papers done for classes in the university honors program, are divided into three groups. The first group deals with science, especially the area of health care, one of the more practical applications of science in the modern age. The second group consists of three papers done for honor courses in which the major purpose was to expose the student to new areas of consciousness and have them respond orally and verbally to what they read, creative writing. The last group deals with the humanities, literature and religion, two of the more popular fields of the humanities today. …
