Use Of A Cooling Jacket During Kidney Transplantation, Stanley G. Dienst, Mohammed R. Ansari

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The model of renal autotransplantation, with immediate contralateral nephrectomy in the dog, is used to demonstrate that continuous cooling by means of a cooling jacket during vascular anastomoses is effective in preserving renal function acutely and over a two-month follow-up period.

Small Bowel Perforation In Blunt Abdominal Trauma, C. Grodsinsky, Brock E. Brush

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This review of pre- and post-operative management of six cases of small bowel perforation secondary to blunt abdominal trauma provides the opportunity to analyze the problems involved in prompt diagnosis and adequate care. Some of the possible mechanisms producing the perforation are discussed. In order to prevent undue delays in diagnosis, changes in clinical picture should warrant early surgical exploration. This avoids increased rates of mortality and prolonged morbidity.

Critical Factors In The Management Of Liver Abscesses, Melvin A. Block, Hubert M. Allen

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Newer diagnostic techniques, including radioisotope liver scans, bacteriologic culture procedures for anaerobes, serologic tests for amebiasis, ultrasonic echograms, and hepatic arteriography, permit more specific identification and localization of hepatic abscesses. Large pyogenic abscesses are of particular Importance to surgeons; are frequently caused by anaerobic organisms; and require early, direct, adequate, and sufficiently prolonged surgical drainage. The clinician should be alert also to recognition and management of the primary lesion responsible for the hepatic abscess, associated abscesses elsewhere, and the possible presence of an underlying liver neoplasm.

Effects Of An Eeg "Seizure Discharge" On Operant Responding, Richard M. Lee, Julia A. Lee, Hendrik Van Den Ende, Lorne D. Proctor

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A post-stimulus "seizure discharge" recorded in the amygdaloid area of monkey brains was investigated primarily by studying its effects upon behavior. Three different operant conditioning schedules were used with animals implanted with multiple depth electrodes. The schedules involved the factors of number discrimination, attention, sequential responding, and self-stimulation. Although the electrical brain stimulation caused a disruption in responding, no behavioral effects could be attributed to the recorded discharge itself. This result, and previous findings, lead to the tentative conclusion that the discharge results from a physico-chemical, brain-electrode interface phenomena and is not neurophysiological in nature.

Dissecting Aneurysm Of The Aorta: Diagnosis, Treatment And Prognosis, Hahn J. Lee, Ellet H. Drake

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The records of 13 patients with proven dissecting aortic aneurysm were studied with particular attention to the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis in each case. The three essential steps in reaching an early correct diagnosis included (1) history and physical examination, (2) serial chest x-rays and (3) aortography. Electrocardiogram and SCOT and LDH measurements seem to be of value only when incompatible with the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Significant differences between Type 1 and Type 3 dissections were observed in their clinical manifestations, results of treatment and natural prognosis.

The Role Of D-Gluconic Acid In The Regulation Of The Synthesis Of The Enzymes Of The Entner-Doudoroff Pathway In Pseudomonas Fluorescens, Steven C. Quay

Honors Theses

Induction of Entner-Duodoroff pathway enzymes in Pseudomonas fluorescens was investigated to study the role of gluconate as a possible inducer. Glucose oxidase-deficient mutants were isolated and characterized. One of these mutants, gox-7, was deficient in particulate glucose oxidase; another mutant, gox-17, was deficient in particulate glucose and gluconate oxidase activities. Gluconate, but not glucose, induced synthesis of gluconokinase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase in both mutants. High constitute levels of 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate aldolase were found when both mutants were grown on glucose. Growth of parent and both mutant strains on glycerol also resulted in high levels of Entner-Doudoroff pathway enzymes. It was concluded …

Ticks Of Japan, Korea, And The Ryukyu Islands, Noboru Yamaguti, Vernon J. Tipton, Hugh L. Keegan, Seiichi Toshioka

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

This publication is a revision of Ixodid Ticks of Japan, Korea, and the Ryukyu Islands by Keegan and Toshioka (1957). The tick fauna of these areas is represented by 36 species in the genera Argas, Ornithodoros, Amblyomma, Boophilus, Dermacentor, Haemaphysalis, Ixodes, and Rhipicephalus. Three species of the family Argasidae and 10 species of Ixodidae were not treated in the original edition. The additional information contained in this revision was derived from field collections and a thorough review of the literature. Keys are provided for the identification of genera and species. For each species we have given synonymy, a brief diagnosis, …

The Influence Of Selected Individuals On The Acquisition Of Fundamental Motor Skills Of Girls, Laura Susan Clapp

All Master's Theses

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of selected individuals on the acquisition of fundamental motor skills of girls. Specific problems were: 1. To develop a device for measuring influences exerted by selected individuals. 2. To measure fundamental motor skills. This study was limited to all ninth grade girls attending Arroyo High School in San Lorenzo, California. This study was limited to one administration of the questionnaire and one administration of the motor ability test per girl.

Effect Of Lateral Positioning On Central Venous Pressure, Romelda C. Jereos

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

This experimental study was conducted to investigate the effects of lateral positioning on central venous pressure. It was hypothesized that lateral positioning would not significantly change the central venous pressure so long as the subjects were placed on the same horizontal plane for both supine and lateral measurements. It was also hypothesized that the length of time spent in the lateral position would not alter the pressure.

It is recognized that several factors do indeed play important roles in the maintenance of central venous pressure. The effect of one particular influencing factor, gravity, was central to this study. The difference …
