Distribution Of Maternal And Fetal Blood Flow Within Cotyledons Of The Sheep Placenta, Gordon G. Power, P. Steven Dale, Paul S. Nelson

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

These studies explore the distribution of blood flow among small samples of placental tissue. Labeled microspheres (14 ± 1 pm) were Injected Into the left ventricle of six un-anesthetized ewes and Into the jugular vein of the fetus In utero. A total of 3,576 samples weighing 31. +11. (S.D.) mg were taken from seventeen cotyledons and counted for flow labels. Maternal and fetal flow within the cotyledons were both normally distributed with standard deviations of 44%. The maternal/ fetal flow ratio was less than 0.5 In 9% of the cotyledon, between 0.5 and 1.5 In 70%, and greater than 1.5 …

A Comparative Study Of The Temporomandibular Joint Area Using Laminagraphic And Panographic Surveys, Frederec B. Cothren Ii

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The relative merits of laminagraphic and panographic radiographic images of the temporomandibular joint area have been compared.

Serial temporomandibular joint area radiographs were taken with a panographic unit. A dried human skull was used as the study subject. Wire grids were placed over the temporomandibular joint areas. The linear and angular distortion of the wire grids was measured with the plane of occlusion being serially tipped horizontally from minus fifteen degrees to plus fifteen degrees.

Lateral laminagraphs were then taken of the same skull with the wire grids still in place to determine the accuracy of the laminagraphic technique as …

Analysis Of The Potentials And Topographical Relations Between The Olfactory Bulb And Prepyriform Cortex, William S. Seibly

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Olfactory bulb efferents sweep caudally over the prepyriform cortex in a broad fiber sheet called the lateral olfactory tract (LOT). The LOT begins as a compact sheet of fibers in the olfactory peduncle and narrows to a bundle caudally. It is the primary axonal pathway between the olfactory bulb and the cortex. The shape and cross-sectional area of the LOT was measured from histologic sections. The cross-sectional area diminishes to about half from rostral to caudal measurements. An array of 58 electrodes spaced at intervals of 1 mm was constructed to conform to the curvilinear surface and geometry of the …

The Effect Of Natural Measures To Aid In Sleep As Compared With The Use Of Flurazepam 30 Milligrams As Seen In The Hospitalized Male Patient, Myra Ladd Thompson

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Sleep is necessary for physical and psychological restoration of the body. Studies indicate that tissue repair is augmented during sleep, showing that rates of protein synthesis and of mitotic division are higher at times of rest and sleep. Studies evaluating sleep-deprived subjects reveal that after loss of normal sleep, some types of memory and learning processes are impaired. These subjects generally become anxious and irritable, especially after loss of dreaming sleep.

Sleeping medications have been implicated by observers and researchers to be a cause of altered sleep patterns. These medications not only disrupt normal sleep cycles, but their continued use …

A Small Area Approach To The Analysis Of Health Systems Performance, John E. Wennberg, Alan Gittelsohn

Dartmouth Scholarship

Methods and techniques for acquiring and analyzing data have been an area of primary concern for State and local health planning agencies since their initial designation. As their responsibilities have developed and the factors become more complex, the agencies have realized an even greater need for analytic processes for evaluating the performance of their health care systems and determining future directions of their programs.

A Retrospective Survey Of Human Birth Defects As Recorded At Mcallen General Hospital In Mcallen, Texas, 1962-1972, Deana Brown

Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA

Consecutive medical records of 10,622 births were viewed, January, 1962, through December, 1972, from McAllen General Hospital, McAllen, Texas. The overall incidence of birth defects was consistent with rates for the United States. Birth defects detected in Spanish surnamed were significantly higher than for non-Spanish surnamed. Spanish surnamed bore eight times more defects of the central nervous system than non Spanish surnamed. Males had significantly more defects than females, and had almost seven times more defects of the urogenital system. The most distinctive feature of this survey was the high incidence of atelectasis. Of all defective liveborn, over half had …

Community & Environmental Health Theses & Dissertations

The present study was conducted as a service to ~e Norfolk Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court, to determine if the family counseling service administered by the Diversion Department, could significantly reduce the recidivism rate among juvenile status offenders (JSOs).

The recidivism rate was recorded, and data analyzed from a two year intervention period. Ss consisted of 37 JSOs who received family counseling (experimental group), and 37 JSOs who did not receive …

Evaluation Of The Impact Of A Health Education Program On The Rate Of Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections In A Selected Female Outpatient Population, Lo Lumsden

Community & Environmental Health Theses & Dissertations

The present study attempted to assess the impact of a health education program focused on those preventive measures or avoidance behaviors an individual could incorporate. into daily living to reduce the incidence of urinary tract . infections. An experimental group, consisting of seventeen volunteers was exposed to a health. education program, and then compared to a seventeen member control group. A statistically significant reduction in the incidence of cystitis, occurred within the experimental group after health education intervention. The results were not statistically significant when the experimental post-test was compared with the control post-test.

Interpersonal Behavior And Depression: An Examination Of Self-Descriptions On The Interpersonal Check List, Douglas Steven Andrews

Dissertations and Theses

Depressive disorders are recognized as being of long standing clinical and theoretical concern. Early psychoanalytic conceptualizations of depression were later reformulated into theories emphasizing interpersonal manifestations of depression, notably passive-dependent oral trends. Recent research efforts have explored specific interpersonal behaviors and their relationship to depression. Although some studies have been done utilizing self-report data of interpersonal behavior, little has been done utilizing self-descriptions of interpersonal traits drawn from a sample of clinically depressed psychiatric outpatients.

Mechanical, Electrical And Anesthetic Stunning Methods For Livestock, Temple Grandin

International Journal for the Study of Animal Problems

A good stunning method must render an animal unable to experience pain and sensation prior to hoisting and slaughter. The three basic types of stunning methods which are classified as being humane (i.e., pain less) in the United States, Europe and other foreign countries are captive bolt (penetrating and nonpenetrating), electrical, and CO₂ (carbon dioxide) gas anesthesia.

The physiological mechanisms of stress are the same before and after the onset of unconsciousness. The release of epinephrine as a result of stress inducers has an effect on the quality of the meat and it is therefore desirable to use a …

Jungian Theory And Social Work Practice, Herman Borenzweig

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Carl Jung's contributions to psychology, psychotherapy, and social science have had little impact upon social wonk practice. Social Work Abstracts to lists only one article where Jungian theory is utilized by social workers. McBroom has recently written an article "The Collective Unconscious as a Unifying Concept in Teaching Human Behavior Cross Culturally:" If only two articles about Jungian psychology have appeared in the social work literature in the last twelve years it seems safe to assume either that the ,Jungian oriented social workers practice their Jung underground and fail to publish on that Jung remains anathema to the profession.
