Warm Water Aquaculture Using Waste Heat And Water From Zero Discharge Power Plants In The Great Basin, Richard A. Heckmann, Robert N. Winget, Rex C. Infanger, Roger W. Mickelsen, John M. Hendersen

Great Basin Naturalist

Two series of experiments were completed to determine (a) toxicity of waste water from power plants on warm water fish and (b) multiple use of waste heat and water for aquatic animal and plant production. All three types of waste water from a typical coal-fired power plant are acceptable for growing catfish and tilapia following aeration. This growth was compared with fish raised in spring water. Closed, recirculating polyculture systems using evaporation pond water operated efficiently for plant (duckweed) and animal (fish and freshwater prawns) production. Duckweed is an excellent supplement for fish feed. Tilapia and freshwater prawns grew rapidly …

The Role Of Emotion In Moral Socialization, Richard A. Dienstbier

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

The major aim of this chapter is to discuss a research program designed to assess emotion-cognition-behavior relationships in moral decision making. While pursuing that aim, I will discuss the relationship of that research to some of the more enduring theoretical issues in emotion.

Theories of emotion wax and wane across a more extended time frame than is typical for theoretical approaches in many other areas in psychology. Perhaps these extended cycles of emotion theory result from the relative difficulty in the recent past in doing definitive research within the area of human emotion. The field was thereby insulated from sudden …

Behavioral Interactions Of Opioid Agonists And Antagonists With Serotonergic Systems, David J. Mokler, Richard H. Rech, Randall L. Commissaris, Judith W. Henck

Biomedical Sciences Faculty Publications

Morphine interacts with brain serotonergic (5-HT) systems; these systems have been implicated in morphine analgesia and dependence (see Cervo et al., 1981). The 5-HT agonist quipazine induces analgesia in rats that is attenuated by naloxone and 5-HT antagonists (Minnema et al., 1980; Samanin et al., 1976). Behavioral disruption by the hallucinogens LSD, DMT and mescaline, mediated primarily through brain 5-HT effects (Rech and Commissaris, 1982), is potentiated by naloxone and naltrexone (Commissaris et al., 1980; Ruffing and Domino, 1981) and is variably antagonized or potentiated by morphine and methadone (Ruffing and Domino, 1981). Cyclazocine causes a disruption of operant behavior …

Fluorescence Probes For The Study Of Acetylcholine Receptor Function, M. Martinez-Carrion, J.M. Gonzalez-Ros, J.R. Mattingly, J.A. Ferragut, M.C. Farach, D. Donnelly

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Publications

Our group initiated the use of pyrene derivatives for functional and structural studies of the membrane-bound Acetylcholine Receptor (AcChR) system. Our studies have taken two approaches. We have recently used a hydrophobic derivative (pyrene-l-sulfonyl azide) that is able to bind covalently to regions of the AcChR molecule accessible from the membrane lipid (1) to monitor ligandinduced effects at those hydrophobic regions of the AcChR protein exposed to the membrane matrix (2). The structural effects induced by ligand binding are interpreted in relation to the AcChR "desensitization" process. We have also used a hydrophilic pyrene derivative (1,3,6,8-pyrene tetra sulfonate [PTSA]) to …

Pre-Hospital Airway Management : A Comparison Of Esophageal And Endotracheal Intubation, Roger Phillips

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

In the late 1960's, a new method for advanced airway management in the pre-hospital setting, the esophageal obturator airway (EOA), was introduced. Ever since, it has been the subject of much discussion over whether it was an effective replacement or alternative to the device traditionally used for airway protection, the endotracheal (ET) tube. Much of the comment has been in the form of personal opinion and anecdotal reports. Each device is in use by paramedics operating out of two hospitals in southern Connecticut, the EOA at Yale New Haven Hospital and the ET at Norwalk Hospital. The ambulance and emergency …

Cellular Dna Content As A Predictor Of Response To Chemotherapy In Infants With Unresectable Neuroblastoma, A. Thomas Look, F. Ann Hayes, Ruprecht Nitschke, Nancy B. Mcwilliams, Alexander A. Green

VCU Health Publications

We studied the relation between the DNA content of neuroblastoma cells and the response to therapy in 35 infants under one year of age with a diagnosis of neuroblastoma. Using flow cytometric techniques, we found that in 27 cases the primary malignant stem line consisted of neuroblasts with hyperdiploid DNA content, ranging from 1.07 to 2.42 times the finding in normal diploid cells. All remaining cases had diploid stem lines. Diploidy was more common in infants with clinical Stage D neuroblastoma (metastases beyond regional lymph nodes) than in those with other, less advanced stages: 6 of 10 as compared with …

Ventriculostomy-Related Infections, C. Glen Mayhall, Nancy H. Archer, V. Archer Lamb, Alice C. Spadora, Jane W. Baggett, John D. Ward, Raj K. Narayan

VCU Health Publications

We conducted a prospective epidemiologic study of ventriculostomy-related infections (ventriculitis or meningitis) in 172 consecutive neurosurgical patients over a two-year period to determine the incidence, risk factors, and clinical characteristics of the infections. Ventriculitis or meningitis developed in 19 of 172 patients (11 per cent) undergoing a total of 213 ventriculostomies. When data from all these cases plus five cases of nonventriculostomy-related infection were combined, cerebrospinal-fluid pleocytosis was more significantly associated with the diagnosis of ventriculitis or meningitis (P<0.0001) than were fever and leukocytosis (P = 0.07). Risk factors for ventriculostomy-related infections included intracerebral hemorrhage with intraventricular hemorrhage (P = 0.027), neurosurgical operations (P = 0.016), intracranial pressure of 20 mm Hg or more (P = 0.019), ventricular catheterization for more than five days (P = 0.017), and irrigation of the system (P = 0.021). Previous ventriculostomy did not increase the risk of infection with subsequent procedures. We conclude that ventriculostomy-related infections may be prevented by maintenance of a closed drainage system and by early removal of the ventricular catheter. If monitoring is required for more than five days, the catheter should be removed and inserted at a different site. (N Engl J Med 1984; 310:553–9.)

Allergies Related To Mosquitoes, Repellents, And Insecticides, James T.C. Li, Charles E. Reed

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Man's skin response to the mosquito bite exhibits great individual variability. The everyday immediate reaction consists o f a red, or erythematous wheal that lasts only one or two hours. Twenty to 24 hours after the mosquito bite, a delayed reaction of erythema, swelling, and itching may also occur. An individual may exhibit an immediate reaction, delayed reaction, both reactions, or neither reaction. Studies suggest that sensitization to mosquito saliva may be responsible for the inflammatory response. This hypothesis is supported by histologic studies which demonstrate striking infiltration of inflammatory cells at the site of mosquito bites. Severe local reactions …

Mosquitoes As Vectors Of Disease In Minnesota, John W. Washburn

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Diseases due to mosquito-borne viruses occur every summer in Minnesota. The incidence of Western encephalitis and LaCrosse encephalitis is usually low, but outbreaks of Western encephalitis have occurred in the past. Evidence of Jamestown Canyon virus activity has been found in Minnesota. This virus may represent a newly-recognized cause of central nervous system disease and encephalitis. The epidemiology of the mosquito-borne encephalitis viruses found in Minnesota and the methods of disease surveillance and control are discussed.
