Mites And Lice Of The National Reactor Testing Station, Dorald M. Allred

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

Mites of 47 species and lice of 16 species were taken from reptiles of 3 species, birds of 23 species, and mammals of 18 species at the National Reactor Testing Station between June, 1966, and September, 1967. Mammals differed in degree of infestation relative to their geographic distribution at the station. The number of species of ectoparasites which occurred on a particular kind of host generally was in direct proportion to the number of hosts examined, but exceptions occurred in some instances. In some cases the rate of infestation differed relative to the sex of the host. The greatest numbers …

Algal Growth And Decomposition: Effects On Water Quality, Phase Ii, Edward G. Foree, Ronald L. Barrow

KWRRI Research Reports

The decomposition and associated nutrient regeneration of three unialgal cultures and one mixed culture containing an indigenous population of bacteria and microscopic animals were studied under dark, constant temperature laboratory conditions. After periods of nutrient-deficient growth ranging from O to 30 days, these cultures were inoculated with decomposer populations and subjected to anaerobic and aerobic environments for the decomposition studies. The extend of decomposition was determined from the percentage volatile suspended solids and percentage particulate COD remaining after 200 days of decomposition. The average extent of decomposition was greater for aerobic than for anaerobic conditions. However, significant portions of the …

Distribution Of The Native Trees Of Utah, Kimball S. Erdman

Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series

Although botanists have been actively collecting in Utah for well over a century, the distribution of many plants are as yet imperfectly known. This is, in part, due to the scattered nature of Utah herbarium material. Also the terrain of the state has impeded collection in more rugged and remote areas. The present study gathers together the data from the major collections of native Utah trees and clarifies our present understanding of tree distributions in the state. The older collection records have been extensively supplemented by the field work of the author and other botanists.

The great diversity of environments …

Assessing Attempted Suicide, Walter J. Cassidy

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Fifty successive patients attempting suicide are assessed from the standpoint of communication (how, when and to whom), manipulativeness, impulsiveness and the dangerousness of the pattern of behavior involved in the attempted suicide. This assessment is meant to clarify the component motivations of suicidal behavior, appeal and self-destruction. The earlier, more obvious the communication, the more definite is the manipulation, the more readily apparent the appeal function. Conversely the later, the less obvious the communication or the absence of communication, the more subtle or absent manipulation the greater is the dominance of self-destructive motivation over the appeal function of the attempted …

Percutaneous Absorption Of Betamethasone-17-Benzoate, George R. Mikhail

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Percutaneous absorption of betamethasone-17-benzoate, a new topical corticosteroid, was sufficient enough to result in adrenocortical suppression in patients with psoriasis or atopic dermatitis when 0.025% of the steroid cream was applied under occlusion to 30% or more of the body surface, using 9 gm or more of the preparation. The adrenal function returned to normal within a short time after the cream was discontinued.

Quantitative Determination Of C-Reactive Protein (Crp) By Micro-Double Diffusion Technic, Hajime Hayashi, Gerald A. Logrippo, Mary Perry

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

C-reactive protein (CRP) determinations in serum have been evaluated by two methods: the capillary tube method (presently in use) and the double diffusion technic (a newly developed procedure standardized in this laboratory). Advantages of the double diffusion technic are (1) quantitation of CRP in milligrams per 100 ml of serum, (2) differentiation of CRP from non-specific precipitates often found in patients' sera, and (3) increased sensitivity. A normal range of CRP levels has been established by analyzing serum from 750 supposedly healthy blood bank donors. Ninety-five percent of the donor population possess less than 1.0 mg of CRP per 100 …

Hypophyseal Growth Hormone Ii. Interaction With Other Hormones, M. Saeed-Uz-Zafar, Raymond C. Mellinger, Lewis B. Morrow

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Growth hormone (GH) synthesis and release is controlled by hypothalamic GH releasing factor. Thyroid hormones, androgens and estrogens in physiologic concentrations enhance GH secretion but a controlling role for glucagon and vasopressin in GH release is not established. Under stress, ACTH directly facilitates GH release while the similar action of the catecholamines is mediated by the a-adrenergic receptors. Though physiologic doses of glucorticoids and progestins do not affect GH liberation, prolonged administration of medroxyprogesterone acetate or of glucocorticoids in high dosage will decrease blood levels or blunt Gti responsiveness. GH enhances the release of insulin. A shift in adrenal steroid …

Health Nurse Clinician: An Extended Role For The Professional Nurse, C. E. Rupe, Diana Downs, Diane L. Kerr, William W. Hardy

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A program to upgrade the level of nursing involvement in patient care has been established in conjunction with Wayne Slate University. Offered as a possible solution to the shortage of health care personnel, the master's degree program would result in an upward movement of medical personnel and provide more continuity of care to the patient. More specifically, the trained Health Nurse Clinician would be able to provide better nursing care because of the nurse's greater awareness of the patient's health problem. She (or he) could also free the physician from some of the time-consuming aspects of routine physical examination without …

Effect Of Normal Menstrual Cycle On Platelet Adhesiveness, Janet Mak Yeung

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Platelet adhesiveness was measured at intervals during the menstrual cycle in six normal females. Three normal males were studied during the .tame period of time to serve as controls. There was a significant difference of the variation of platelet adhesiveness between the two groups during the period of 30 days. Five out of six females showed much greater fluctuation than the males. No definite trend was observed in the platelet adhesiveness of females in relation to the menstrual cycle in this preliminary study. A larger number of samples from the population will be necessary to obtain a more accurate result.

Mixed Gonadal Stroma Cell Tumor Of The Testicle: A Case Report, Gerald B. Farrow, Arthur J. Johnson

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A specialized gonadal stromal tumor of mixed nature found in a 20-year-old Negro male is reported. Although the tumor had been present for six to seven years, there was no evidence of metastases or of hormonal imbalance. Reference is made to the confusing nomenclature of these rare tumors.
