Post-Therapeutic Thyroid Reserve: Thyroid Reserve In Euthyroid Patients After Ablative Therapy For Diffuse Toxic Goiter, J. Joseph Prendergast, J. Martin Miller
Post-Therapeutic Thyroid Reserve: Thyroid Reserve In Euthyroid Patients After Ablative Therapy For Diffuse Toxic Goiter, J. Joseph Prendergast, J. Martin Miller
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Thyroid reserve was measured in 41 patients who were euthyroid 5 to 15 years after therapy for diffuse toxic goiter. Twenty-one of them had been treated by 131I, 20 by surgery and 10 were normal controls. All had a PBI (protein bound iodine) and 3-hour thyroidal 131I uptake. The same parameters of function were measured again 24 hours after they were given 10 units of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) intramuscularly. Only two patients in each treatment group responded with normal elevation of both the PBI and 131I uptake. In 52% of the 131I-treated patients and in 55% of those surgically …
A New Biological Stain For Peripheral Blood And Bone Marrow Smears, A. R. Villanueva
A New Biological Stain For Peripheral Blood And Bone Marrow Smears, A. R. Villanueva
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
A new blood stain has been developed for the demonstration and differentiation of cell types in peripheral blood or marrow smears, parasites in blood, and tissue impression preparations. It is available as a prebuffered powder which is dissolved in 100% reagent methanol. The method of staining is simple and rapid, with no precipitate. Overstaining is not likely to occur. The tinctorial patterns closely resemble some predecessors and, as the stain solution ages the staining quality improves. It is specific, stable, reproducible and resistant to fading.
Intestinal Lymphagiectasia With Normal Immunological Function: A Case Report, T. Madhavan, C. E. Rupe
Intestinal Lymphagiectasia With Normal Immunological Function: A Case Report, T. Madhavan, C. E. Rupe
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
A patient is reported with histologically proven intestinal lymphangiectasia and protein losing enteropathy. The gastrointestinal protein loss and the effect of low fat diet have been demonstrated. The morphological abnormalities with radiological and lymphangiographic findings are discussed. Immunological studies are analyzed. These patients may have normal function both humoral and cellular, in spite of fairly advanced disease. Also the new hereto unreported association of Graves' Disease and intestinal lymphangiectasia has been brought out.
Total Gastrectomy For Carcinoma Of The Stomach, Thomas A. Fox Jr.
Total Gastrectomy For Carcinoma Of The Stomach, Thomas A. Fox Jr.
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
The results of total gastrectomy in 47 patients with carcinoma of the stomach are reported. Extended total gastrectomy is recommended only if the growth cannot be removed by any other means. It should not be performed if the growth is not totally resectable. The operative mortality and postoperative results of total gastrectomy have improved to the extent that this operation for carcinoma of the stomach should be undertaken where indicated.
Quantitation Of Aortic Valvular Insufficiency Using Radioactive Tracers: An Experimental Study In Vitro, Frank J. Hildner, William R. Pierson, Bernard Weinstock, Ellet H. Drake, Robert S. Ormond
Quantitation Of Aortic Valvular Insufficiency Using Radioactive Tracers: An Experimental Study In Vitro, Frank J. Hildner, William R. Pierson, Bernard Weinstock, Ellet H. Drake, Robert S. Ormond
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
A method has been developed in vitro for quantitation of aortic valvular insufficiency (Al) based on the use of ladioactive traceis lo genei-ate graphic recordings of the movement of blood out of the ventricle and back again. The regurgitant fraction of stroke volume (peirent of Al) is read from this recording. The method was evaluated in a mechanical heart model by comparing Al values read from the istope recordings and Al values determined volumetrically. The recordings gave excellent agreement with the volumetric results (Corr. Coeff. .9). These in vitro results are of such quality that clinical trials seem justified.

Echinococcosis Of The Liver: Report Of A Case, Roberto Benedetti, Joseph L. Ponka
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Echinococcosis of the liver is so rare in our practice that the case presented is the only one documented in the records of Henry Ford Hospital. The massive enlargement of the liver required surgical intervention. Marsupialization was the treatment of choice. In spite of post-operative complications, the patient made a satisfactory recovery.
Complications Of Pulmonary Angiography, D. T. Anbe, E. H. Drake
Complications Of Pulmonary Angiography, D. T. Anbe, E. H. Drake
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Although data are available indicating the complication rates for routine cardiac catheterization, information has been lacking on the morbidity of pulmonary angiography in symptomatic patients. This retrospective study was undertaken to assess the "risks" of this procedure, by analyzing all cases undergoing pulmonary angiography from June 10, 1964. to December 31, 1967. Only two deaths were considered to be causally related to the pulmonary angiogram, a mortality rate of 1.4%. The overall complication rate was 15%. There was no correlation of the complications with the average age, or the concentration of the Hypaque used. There was a correlation between complications …

Serum Hepatitis At Henry Ford Hospital 1958-1967, K. S. Murthy, B. M. Schuman
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
An analysis was done to determine the risk of hepatitis related to transfusions of whole blood or blood fractions. Of 180 cases indexed as serum hepatitis at Henry Ford Hospital, from 1958 to 1967, 148 had been transfused at this hospital. The overall incidence of hepatitis was 1.13 cases per 1,000 units transfused with a mortality rate of 7.4%.

Alcaptonuria And Ochronosis With Diabetes Mellitus And Mycosis Fungoides: A Case Report, Jamshed U. Haq, Roy B. Patton
Alcaptonuria And Ochronosis With Diabetes Mellitus And Mycosis Fungoides: A Case Report, Jamshed U. Haq, Roy B. Patton
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
A Negro woman with alcaptonuria, ochronosis, ochronotic arthropathy, diabetes mellitus and mycosis fungoides died of acute renal failure due to diabetic glomerulonephropathy and ochronotic nephrosis. The role of the renal lesions of ochronosis is presented in potentiating the effect of an underlying renal disease producing rapidly progressive kidney failure. The occurrence of ochronosis, diabetes mellitus and mycosis fungoides is apparently coincidental only. Special stains of tissue sections confirm the similarity of melanin and ochronotlc pigment.
Cation Transport I. Metabolic Activity Of The Polyphosphoinositide Complex In Isolated Renal Cortex Tubules, Paul Bartlett, James F. Bossart
Cation Transport I. Metabolic Activity Of The Polyphosphoinositide Complex In Isolated Renal Cortex Tubules, Paul Bartlett, James F. Bossart
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Although several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the transport of hydrophylilc cations across lipoprotein barriers, the nature and identity of the carrier mechanism have not yet been elucidated. The present communication is concerned with a mechanism postulating that monoesterified phosphate on the inositol moiety of phosphatidyl inositol might provide anionic sites that function as cation carriers via a phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle, catalyzed in its simplest sequence by phosphatidyl inositol kinase and diphosphoinositide phosphomonoesterase activities. In this context, one might reasonably expect that turnover of monoesterified phosphate in the polyphosphoinositides of isolated renal cortex tubules would be reduced in tubules in …
The Mechanism Of Formation Of Certain Ventricular Septal Defects: A New Hypothesis, Jami G. Shakibi, Lester Weiss
The Mechanism Of Formation Of Certain Ventricular Septal Defects: A New Hypothesis, Jami G. Shakibi, Lester Weiss
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
The generally accepted and most common mechanism of the pathogenesis of VSD is the failure of fusion of the conus ridges, atrioventricular cushions and the ventricular muscular septum. Our findings in a study of serial sections of the hearts of newborn gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) leads us to hypothesize a second, less common, mechanism for the development of VSD, i.e., an exaggeration of the normal process of resorption and atrophy which undermines the septal cusp of the tricuspid valve, thus separating it from the muscular septum. This hypothesis can explain an instance of high membranous VSD in the form of a …
Evaluation Of Cellular-Level Haversian Bone Resorption In Human Hyperparathyroid States: A Preliminary Report, H. M. Frost, A. R. Villanueva, Z. F. Jaworski, P. Meunier, A. G. Shimizu
Evaluation Of Cellular-Level Haversian Bone Resorption In Human Hyperparathyroid States: A Preliminary Report, H. M. Frost, A. R. Villanueva, Z. F. Jaworski, P. Meunier, A. G. Shimizu
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Cellular-level bone resorption was evaluated in 16 patients undergoing renal dialysis and in two with primary hyperparathyroidism, by quantitative histological means using tissue time markers. When averaged over periods greater than two weeks, the individual osteoclasts in these patients resorbed less bone in unit time than normal.
Promethazine-Chlorpromazine Combination In The Treatment Of Unmanageable Psychotic Patients, Armando R. Favazza
Promethazine-Chlorpromazine Combination In The Treatment Of Unmanageable Psychotic Patients, Armando R. Favazza
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Administering a combination of promethazine and chlorpromazine to patients with a "galloping psychosis" has an antipsychotic and tranquilizing effect which calms them down to a more manageable and less aggressive state. The drugs are chemically similar; promethazine's actions are strongly potentiated in the combination, so large doses must be given under careful supervision. Case histories demonstrate successful short term management of acutely psychotic, aggressive patients who were a danger to themselves and others.
Pneumatosis Cystoides Intestinalis: The Report Of A Case Associated With Severe Pulmonary Disease And Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Russell J. Crider, Philip Bentlif
Pneumatosis Cystoides Intestinalis: The Report Of A Case Associated With Severe Pulmonary Disease And Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Russell J. Crider, Philip Bentlif
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis is discussed with emphasis on its clinical, radiologic, sigmoidoscopic, surgical and pathological characteristics. The four theories of the etiology of P.Cl. are neoplastic, infectious, nutritional, and mechanical. These theories are discussed, and a case of P.C.I, associated with severe pulmonary disease and chronic lymphocytic leukemia is presented to lend support to the mechanical theory.
The Prevalence Rate Of Congenital Heart Disease In Newborn Gerbils (Meriones Unguiculatus): A Preliminary Report, Jami G. Shakibi, Lester Weiss
The Prevalence Rate Of Congenital Heart Disease In Newborn Gerbils (Meriones Unguiculatus): A Preliminary Report, Jami G. Shakibi, Lester Weiss
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
A preliminary report on the prevalence rate of congenital heart disease in newborn gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) is presented. Serial sections of the entire heart of 100 liveborn gerbils were studied. The prevalence rate of congenital heart disease was 4%. Ventricular septal defect was the most frequent lesion. This is in agreement with previous reports on rats.

Photographic Features Of Benign And Malignant Ulcers, N. V. Carandang, B. M. Schuman, R. J. Priest
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
One hundred and twenty-nine cases of benign gastric ulcer and 17 cases of malignant gastric ulcer studied by intragastric photography are reviewed. The benign ulcer, characterized by symmetrical contour and smooth base, was diagnosed correctly on the initial photographic study in 97.7% of cases. Malignant ulcers were diagnosed correctly in 59% of cases on the first study. The importance of color photography to complement roentgenographic evaluation of gastric ulceration is emphasized.

Stress Urinary Incontinence In The Human Female: Gravity And Ecomorphologic Influences On Bladder And Urethral Function Of The Human Female, C. Paul Hodgkinson
Stress Urinary Incontinence In The Human Female: Gravity And Ecomorphologic Influences On Bladder And Urethral Function Of The Human Female, C. Paul Hodgkinson
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
This study was undertaken to determine if the biped stale of the human female constituted a stress force in urethrovesical physiological function. To arrive at realistic conclusions, the ecomorphologic changes incidental to the conquest of gravity by the vertebrates have been reviewed. Accepting the evolutionary precepts as expressed by Hobart Smith that "if all parts of the evolutionary chain were known, it would be impossible to draw a logical distinction between man and nonman, Romer slated "Bone for bone, muscle for muscle, organ for organ, almost every feature of the ape is repeated in the human body. The differences are …

Aqueous Microbiology: The Possible Role Of Cell Wall Deficient Bacteria In Uveitis, Philip C. Hessburg, Lioa H. Mattman, Carolyn Barth, Lloyd T. Dutcheshen
Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal
Samples of aqueous humor were obtained from the anterior chamber of patients with uveitis. Bacterial L-forms, or cell wall deficient forms, were recovered from 11 of 19 eyes with unexplained uveitis. These bacterial variants were cultured on newer, highly specialized media and stained with acridine orange. This stain demonstrates fluorescence of nucleic acids under UV microscopy.
