Radiation Cataract: Biomicroscopic Observations In Rabbit, Monkey, And Man, Walter J. Geeraets
Radiation Cataract: Biomicroscopic Observations In Rabbit, Monkey, And Man, Walter J. Geeraets
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The type or configuration of lens changes in these two species was quite different. This can be understood on the basis of the structural differences of their crystalline lenses based on the location of the suture lines.
Cryopreserved Corneal Tissue: A Practical Guide To Its Use, Walter Mayer
Cryopreserved Corneal Tissue: A Practical Guide To Its Use, Walter Mayer
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
What we will explain in detail is the technique we have developed to actually use cryopreserved tissue in the operating room. Anyone who has followed the development of this type of transplant material has heard and read how important it is to follow exactly certain steps, but nowhere in the literature is there a guide as to how, in practice, the different steps are to be carried out. We know of no other procedure in ophthalmology where absolute adherence to the strictest set of guidelines is absolutely necessary.
Acuity Variations In Diabetes Mellitus, William W. Carroll
Acuity Variations In Diabetes Mellitus, William W. Carroll
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The purpose of this paper is to briefly review the factors involved in acuity changes in diabetes mellitus and to report findings suggesting a new concept, namely, diurnal fluctuations in acuity that are not associated with hypoglycemic episodes.

Communication is the process by which information is received, interpreted, and retained; however, communication often breaks down as a result of brain injury. It has been estimated that there are 400,000 adults in the United States with some degree of communication loss from stroke, and each year another 20,000 people become similarly afflicted. The ability to transmit and/or receive information depends on visual and auditory comprehension and retention, reading comprehension, visual motor facility, and speech. These areas are so interrelated that a collapse in one often causes a breakdown in a closely connected ability.

Experimentally Induced Coloboma In The Golden Hamster: A Preliminary Report, Ragnit Geeraets
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The present study represents the second part of a more comprehensive investigation of the morphogenesis of the normal and abnormal embryonic fissure. The first part, an electron microscopic study of the normal closure, has already been completed. The second part consists of the attempt to induce colobomata by means of hypo- and hyper-vitaminosis A. If both attempts are successful, the resulting colobomata will then be compared with one another as well as with the sequence of events in the normal closure. It is hoped that this investigation will permit some insight into the cellular phenomena that lead to a congenital …

The Surgical Approach To Problems Of Sexual Identification, Howard W. Jones Jr.
The Surgical Approach To Problems Of Sexual Identification, Howard W. Jones Jr.
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
While transsexualism is a disorder which seems to affect both anatomical sexes, the gynecologist plays his principal role in the therapy of the male transsexual, i.e., the anatomical male who considers the difficulty to be that of a female psyche trapped within a male body. It is only with these male patients with a female gender orientation that this discussion will deal.
An Ounce Of Prevention, Nancy G. Witt
An Ounce Of Prevention, Nancy G. Witt
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
In conclusion, we have found that an educational and behavioral approach has been most effective in correcting maladaptive behavior in children, and complete success is only limited by our own creativity. We cannot advocate behavior modification for all children because neither we nor our children should adapt to an ineffective educational system. Improvement in programming in both academic and social skills must be of primary emphasis in prevention. We must concentrate our best minds and personnel in the preschool and primary school years. As the child learns to accept the consequences of his behavior, the necessary social skills to meet …
Current Knowledge Of Gonadotrophin Releasing Factor(S), Emanuel M. Bogdanove
Current Knowledge Of Gonadotrophin Releasing Factor(S), Emanuel M. Bogdanove
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
What I want to discuss are not the potential therapeutic or diagnostic uses of these newly available compounds, which are really very speculative, but certain features of the physiological control system in which these compounds are thought to play key roles. Any rational system of therapeutics or prophylaxis involving these releasing factors, or their derivatives, must be based on adequate understanding of (1) the physiological roles of these compounds, (2) how these roles may be altered by disease, and (3) the effects specific disturbances of the control system(s) in which they operate can be expected to have on reproductive processes.
Anesthesia, 1972, C. Ronald Stephen
Anesthesia, 1972, C. Ronald Stephen
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Implied in a title such as this one is an obligation to determine the present "state of the art," or science, if you will, and to elucidate, in a manner of speaking, where we are, why we are, and in which direction we may be going. To perform such a function in perspective, we must return to the past. Then one wonders, how far into the past? How much of the past is really relevant to today? Our reflection will go back thirty years to 1942, in Montreal, Canada, to the sphere of McGill University.
Oxygen Toxicity And Anesthesia: A Ten-Year Review And Overview, John Q. Durfey
Oxygen Toxicity And Anesthesia: A Ten-Year Review And Overview, John Q. Durfey
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Anesthesia personnel will become increasingly involved in situations related to such exposures to oxygen at high pressure (OHP) such as will be found in the new fields of industry and agriculture now being developed underwater, sometimes at great depths. It is the responsibility of the specialty to continue basic and clinical research in these areas and to expand clinical teaching to encompass the management of related problems.
Some Therapeutic Considerations In Diabetic Retinopathy, Walter J. Geeraets, William W. Carroll
Some Therapeutic Considerations In Diabetic Retinopathy, Walter J. Geeraets, William W. Carroll
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
With the increasing emphasis on photocoagulation therapy in diabetic retinopathy, its potentials and, most probably, the beneficial effects such therapeutic modality may have in arresting or even improving diabetic retinopathy, one should realize the limitations, the present lack of factual knowledge, and the theories underlying such treatment.
Myocardial Infarction After General Anesthesia, Sait Tarhan, Emerson A. Moffitt, William F. Taylor, Emilio R. Giuliani
Myocardial Infarction After General Anesthesia, Sait Tarhan, Emerson A. Moffitt, William F. Taylor, Emilio R. Giuliani
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Few statistics are available about the incidence of primary or recurrent myocardial infarction after anesthesia. Mortality rates and their relation to age and sex, and to type and duration of anesthesia in existing reports, are based on a relatively small number of cases. This review attempts to provide additional data on these questions by analyzing a 2-year experience in a large anesthetic practice.
Child Psychiatry, Walter Draper
Child Psychiatry, Walter Draper
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The first annual Spring Forum for Child Psychiatry was held in 1963. Although interest in the establishment of programs for children was running high in many civic groups, there was little knowledge about how these programs could be organized and what they could accomplish. The first Forums served the purpose of sharing with the public and with other mental health professionals the experience and knowledge being gathered at the Virginia Treatment Center for Children. Later Forums have provided a means whereby other groups having a vested interest in children and their welfare might express their views, proposals, or the results …
Problems In The Delivery Of Health Care, Kinloch Nelson
Problems In The Delivery Of Health Care, Kinloch Nelson
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The news these days is generally bad. Much of it is concerned with the inadequacies in the provision of medical care: its great cost; the shortage of health care personnel; and the misdistribution of the personnel available. All are blamed on the present system, or "non-system."
The Relationship Of Motility Problems To Reading Problems, Keith Mcneer
The Relationship Of Motility Problems To Reading Problems, Keith Mcneer
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
In summary, the ophthalmologist's role in caring for dyslectic children is simply caring for ocular problems. It is rather easy to separate the ocular defects from the nebulous concepts of dyslexia or learning disability. It is also easy to make the decision when and to what degree ophthalmological care is indicated with a clear and attainable goal in sight. Eye exercises or so-called visual training have virtually no value. Practically, the ophthalmologist's most valuable tool in caring for dyslexia is honesty about his results.
Internal Control Of Cash In The Medical Office, William Mccormick Jr.
Internal Control Of Cash In The Medical Office, William Mccormick Jr.
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Most individuals have an aversion to a discussion of internal control because the need for such a safeguard stems from an aspect of human behavior we would prefer to ignore. Yet internal control is a small necessity for most organizations, large and small.
Fetal Abnormalities Of Metabolic Origin, Peter Mamunes
Fetal Abnormalities Of Metabolic Origin, Peter Mamunes
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The subject of my discussion is prenatal diagnosis of genetic disorders of a metabolic rather than a chromosomal nature. Whereas the chromosomal defects are the result of either the transmission of a translocated chromosome from a single parent to its offspring or an error in meiosis or mitosis, almost all metabolic disorders are inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion. Therefore, except in rare instances, the only clue to the possible presence of an inborn error of metabolism (IEM) in the fetus is that a previous child of the parents has had the disorder. This history identifies both mother and father …
Electronic Monitoring Of The Fetus, S. Edward Davis Iii
Electronic Monitoring Of The Fetus, S. Edward Davis Iii
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Although the fetal electrocardiograph (FECG), was recorded earlier in this century, utilization of the electrical activity of the heart for fetal assessment is really a procedure of approximately the last two decades. The fetal electrocardiograph obtained from the maternal abdomen can be used to detect fetal life, multiple pregnancies, and it can be extracted from the background noise by means of computer averaging techniques in order to study the electrical signal itself.

Psychological Abnormalities Of Sexual Identification, James L. Mathis
Psychological Abnormalities Of Sexual Identification, James L. Mathis
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The normal process of development of sexual identification slides almost unnoticed through well-defined, but overlapping stages to a definite end point. That end point is an individual who senses that his core gender, male or female, is consistent with the body morphology, the external genitalia, the chromosomal configuration, and the hormonal balance. Also, there must be the development of personality traits, masculine or feminine, consistent with the sense of core gender. Finally, although somewhat outside the scope of our present discussion, there must be the establishment of a role or life style in adulthood in accordance with the first two …
Uterine Blood Flow During Pregnancy, Frank C. Greiss Jr.
Uterine Blood Flow During Pregnancy, Frank C. Greiss Jr.
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Of these parameters pertinent to fetal well-being, the delivery of an adequate amount of blood to the placenta seems to be the most crucial. At our present state of understanding, uterine blood flow (UBF) appears to be that parameter most often affected by physiologic and pathologic conditions, and it is certainly that factor most readily altered, either favorably or unfavorably, by the physician. In this presentation, normal changes in UBF during pregnancy will be reviewed briefly, those factors influencing uterine and placental vascular dynamics will be discussed, and the clinical relevance of these observations will be illustrated on the background …
Placental Circulation, Elizabeth M. Ramsey
Placental Circulation, Elizabeth M. Ramsey
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
One of the most important developments of recent years in the field of uterine physiology has been the recognition that the endometrial changes occurring during the menstrual cycle and those associated with pregnancy are interlocking, sequential events in an ordered progressions from the first day of the cycle to parturition--and not separate phenomena as was formerly believed. No component of the endometrium illustrates this progression more strikingly than does the vasculature.
Femininity And Sexuality, Allan C. Barnes
Femininity And Sexuality, Allan C. Barnes
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
In the second of the two McGuire Lectures, Dr. Barnes discussed the nature of femininity and sexuality. He began by pointing out that people usually turn first to the medical profession when seeking help in solving their sexual problems. Though some of these individual may require psychiatric care, most of them are simply misinformed and need to be reeducated. "We [physicians] need to consider their problems non-judgmentally and not let our own particular attitudes and views intrude too much," said Dr. Barnes.

Recent Developments In Anesthesia Malpractice, Jack B. Russell
Recent Developments In Anesthesia Malpractice, Jack B. Russell
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The topic "Recent Developments" is partially a misnomer because what I am going to address myself to is the recent trends or developments in three particular areas of the law as it affects the field of medicine, and then attempt to related these particularly to the field of anesthesiology. You must also understand that "recent" medically and "recent" legally may in fact be years apart. What are commonly referred to as recent legal theories, frequently find their origin in court decision several decades old. At the same time, some of what follows is of such recent vintage as to be …
Proper Use Of Mechanical Ventilators, James P. Baker
Proper Use Of Mechanical Ventilators, James P. Baker
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
The proper use of mechanical ventilators is related to many problems; however, the primary one is the knowledge of the physician, nurse, inhalation therapist, and other paramedical personnel with a given ventilator. It is important to remember that there are certain inherent problem with all ventilators. These problem must be carefully searched for and avoided.

A Brighter Future: They Can Succeed, Ann H. Stewart, Shelby Dodd, Marsha Musser, Wilbur Reese
MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly
Ever since the development of the Intelligence Quotient as measured in different ways, great controversy has raged about genetic causation for low IQ's. It is frequently stated that an Intelligence Quotient is only determinant of how the individual is operating at the time it is taken, but I find it almost impossible for this statement to be accepted by teachers and school systems. Mental retardation is said to make up 3% of our total population, 75% of which is the so called "familial retardation" with no demonstrable organic pathology. The children so labelled and referred to Special Education Classes are …
