The Frequency Of Vestibular Disorders In Developmentally Delayed Preschoolers With Otitis Media., Roseann C Schaaf

Department of Occupational Therapy Faculty Papers

This study investigated the frequency of vestibular disorders in developmentally disabled preschoolers who did and who did not have a history of otitis media. Fifteen children with a history of otitis media and fifteen children with no history of otitis media were given two tests for vestibular functioning: the Southern California Postrotary Nystagmus Test (SCPNT) and the Lateral Labyrinthine Righting Reaction (LLRR), acting on the head.

The Strange Story Of Jay Mclean, The Discoverer Of Heparin, Conrad R. Lam

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Since 1939, the use of heparin has become widespread in the prevention of postoperative thrombosis and embolism and is the basis for modern open-heart surgery. What is not generally known is the story of Jay McLean, the second-year medical student at Johns Hopkins who is given credit for the original discovery. McLean's first scientific publication concerning the use of heparin does not contain the word "heparin," and not until 25 years later did McLean publish a short paper about heparin. Some personal letters and other research have indicated a checkered career. He was trained as a surgeon in the Halsted …

Central Pontine Myelinolysis In A Patient With Adrenal Insufficiency, John E. Brunner

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Central pontine myelinolysis is a demyelinating process that has occurred in association with rapid correction of hyponatremia. Presented here is the case of a patient who had adrenal insufficiency and who experienced signs of central pontine myelinolysis after rapid correction of severe hyponatremia (28 mEq/L of sodium administered in the first 24 hours, initial serum sodium level 97mEq/L). Sustained hyponatremia and the use of intravenous contrast material after hyponatremia correction are discussed as possible risk factors in the development of central pontine myelinolysis.
