A Translation And Analysis Of Portions Of The Russian Text The Art Of Oratory, Edited By A. Tolmachev, Moscow, 1959, Jack H. Butler

Speech and Hearing Sciences ETDs

Ancient and modern authorities on rhetoric agree that the fundamental purpose of oral discourse is social coordination or control. This implies the use of speech as an instrument of communication by which ideas and feelings are conveyed from person to person. Speech, therefore, assumes a primary role in the outcome of history and the peaceful resolution of vital differences.

Distress In Children Going To X-Ray, Ina Madge Longway

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

It is commonly recognized that hospitalized children need psychological support and preparation for painful procedures. It is probable that little thought is given by hospital personnel to a similar preparation of the child for non-painful procedures. This study attempted to evaluate the distress incurred by children subjected to non-painful hospital procedures with little or no preparation. The procedure of x-ray was selected as being common and typical. The method used was the descriptive survey. The tools used were the taking of a series of six blood pressure readings per child, the administration of two forms of a short psychological test …

The Physical Properties Of Dental Amalgam With Special Reference To The Eames Technic, Eugene Darwin Voth

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to make an evaluation of a dental amalgam technic using one part mercury to one part alloy, which is known as the Eames technic.

The study consisted of a comparison of various physical properties of dental amalgam using the Eames technic, and the conventional technic for handling amalgam. Special dies were made for preparing the specimens as well as special equipment for testing the specimens.

Trituration of the alloy was done both by mechanical triturators and by hand trituration. The specimens were condensed by hand using a manudynomometer so that all specimens were packed …

A Comparative Study Of Two Contemporary Methods Of Cephalometric Analysis, Alden B. Chase

The In Vivo Effects Of Hydrazines And Vitamin B6 On The Metabolism Of Gamma_Aminobutyric Acid, Miguel Angel Median

Theses

The discovery of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in mammalian brain and its rigorous identification was reported in 1950 (1,2,3). Enzymatic experiments with brain acetone powder revealed that GABA was formed by the decarboxylation of glutamic acid and that the enzyme, glutamic acid decarboxylase, required pyridoxal phosphate as the co-factor (4,5). Radioactive tracer studies in vivo and in vitro with glutamic acid and glucose verfied the fact that the former was the precursor of GABA (6,7).

The Conversion Of Cytidylic Acid To Deoxycytidylic Acid In Rat Kidney, Judith Marie Werderitsch

Master's Essays (1922 - )

Evidence was presented in 1949 by Bendich, Getler, and Brown (2), that the free pyrimidine base, cytosine, was not incorporated into the nucleotides of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Further studies by Hammarsten, Reichard, and Saluste (9) with cytidine and those by Roll, Weinfeld, and Carroll (26) with cytidylic acid, showed that the nucleoside and nucleotide derivatives were well incorporated into DNA. These experiments indicated that the conversion of the riboside (or ribotide) to the deoxyribose form had occurred with the nucleosidic linkage intact. This theory was further substantiated by Rose and Schweigert (29) using cytidylic acid incorporation into the total viscera …
