Isotope Cisternography — Risa®, J. L. Fenton, W. R. Eyler, L. A. Dusault, G. M. Griser, F. C. Stebner

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Several cases are presented which illustrate the indications and results of a relatively new procedure of intrathecal injection of radioiodinated human seruin albumin I 131 to demonstrate cerebrospinal fluid dynamics. This procedure has been used in conjunction with pneumoencephalography in the diagnosis of communicating hydrocephalus. A proper dose as well as adequate volume are necessary to obtain diagnostic scans.

The Vasopressor Effect Of Indigo Carmine, C. C. Wu, Arthur J. Johnson

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Indigo carmine only recently was found to have a vasopressor effect. Intravenous injection in anesthetized and unanesthetized patients resulted in blood pressure elevation and bradycardia. This effect appears analogous to that of serotonin which indigo carmine structurally resembles. This drug should be used with caution in patients with cardiovascular disease.

Some Aspects Of Cranial Bone Growth In The Puberal Macaca Mulatta Monkey: As Evidenced By Metallic Implants And Cephalometric Roentgenography And The Application Of A Geological Lapidary Technique For The Semi-Serial Thin Sectioning Of Undecalcified Bone, Lee Eugene Olsen

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to investigate cranial and facial bone growth in the puberal Macaca mulatta monkey over a six month period utilizing the methods of metallic implantation combined with serial cephalometric roentgenography and a bichromatic vital staining method.

The employment of the vital stains, alizarin Red S and anthracene blue, over the six month period of the study, failed to stain the actively growing bone as evidenced by gross and microscopic analysis of the undecalcified bone preparations.

Interimplant measurements were made across certain bone sutures and the following results were obtained: The zygomaticotemporal sutures showed marked growth …

A Cephalometric, Anatomic And Histologic Investigation Of The Effects Resulting From A Heavy Interrupted Orthopedic Force To The Maxilla Of The Macaca Mulatta Monkey, Roger Wayne Triftshauser

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this study was to determine changes that occur in the craniofacial complex, when a heavy interrupted orthopedic force is employed to retract the maxilla in the post puberal rhesus monkey. Cephalometric, histologic and anatomic examinations were utilized to substantiate the findings.

Four female rhesus monkeys were used for experimentation. Two were experimental animals and the other two controls. Cervical retraction with headgear was applied over a period of 313 days and 159 days to the two experimental animals. Forces not exceeding 2.5 lbs. were found most effective.

The findings were as follows:-

1. A total posterior displacement of …

Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis (Follow-Up Study), C. Leslie Mitchell

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Epiphyseolysis, or slipping of the capital femoral epiphysis, remains a controversial problem from the standpoint of etiology and treatment. This report is limited to results of treatment of severely slipped epiphyses at the Henry Ford Hospital from 1937 lo 1967. The surgical technique and postoperative care are described. Of a total of 137 hips treated surgically in this period, 38 were severe, requiring transcervical osteotomy and internal fixation. The follow-up results of these 38 cases are reported.

Derotation Osteotomy Of The Femur In Cerebral Palsy, James R. Glessner Jr.

Generally satisfactory experience is reported in a 10-year study and evaluation of a modified surgical technique for correction of anteversion and associated gait abnormalities in cerebral palsy. The 25 patients so treated represent only 2% of those seen during the period.

Osteochondroma Of The Vertebra, C. H. Hickey

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

A seldom considered manifestation of multiple hereditary exostosis — vertebral lesions with and without neurological complications — is discussed. Three additional cases are added to the sparse literature on the subject with hope that the spinal ostetochondroma will be searched for and treated before neurological complications become manifest.

Pulmonary Angiograms And Isotope Lung Scans — Their Role In The Diagnosis Of Pulmonary Embolism, Robert S. Ormond, Ellet H. Drake, Richard A. Rideout, Sudarsan Misra

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Experience gained in the study of 307 patients by pulmonary angiograms and/or isotope lung scans has led to concepts regarding the limitation and usefulness of each. The scan is ideally useful when the patient with suspected pulmonary embolism has a negative chest film. Angiograms should be performed when there are parenchymal infiltrations on the chest radiograph or when a definite diagnosis is necessary. Either study should be performed early in the course of the patient's illness to permit diagnostic study.

Pacemaker Induced Ventricular Tachycardia: Report Of A Case With The "Runaway Pacemaker", Remigio Garcia, Eduardo Arciniegas

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

The "runaway pacemaker" is a serious pacing failure resulting from battery exhaustion or malfunction of some of the pulse generator components. Hypotension, rapid rate, dyspnea and palpitations were the main clinical features of one example of this iatrogenic arrhythmia presented here. When diagnosed, this condition must be treated as an emergency by disconnecting the subcutaneous wire electrodes from the unit and attaching them to a new pulse generator. The importance of frequent examinations with electrocardiographic recordings for the early recognition of this complication is emphasized.

A Hazard Of "Diet Pop", Charles Wolf

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Calorie-free carbonated beverages, or "diet pops," are becoming increasingly popular and many households no longer contain the older, more familiar, sugar containing, carbonated beverages. Because physicians frequently make use of "soda pop" when prescribing treatment for common pediatric conditions such as febrile episodes or bouts of vomiting or diarrhea, the following case report is presented to illustrate the fact that physicians must ascertain that the beverage to be used to maintain hydration is not calorie free.

Bovine Testicular Antihyaluronidase In Rabbits: Production And Purification, Gerald Fine, Sheikh M. Saeed, Gerald A. Logrippo

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

An antibody chemically and immunologically active against bovine testicular hyaluronidase was produced in rabbits by injecting them with purified hyaluronidase in complete Freund's adjuvant. Nonspecific antibodies, reacting with human and bovine proteins which had little or no hyaluronidase activity, were also detected by the double agar immunodiffusion technique using antiserum against these proteins. After absorption of the antiserum with bovine heart and liver and removal of the precipitation bands against human and bovine tissue proteins, the antiserum inhibited the chemical activity of the purified hyaluronidase and exhibited immunologic activity against the purified hyaluronidase as shown by the agar double immunodiffusion …

Pathology Of Secretory Otitis: A Temporal Bone Report, Luis F. Perez De Moura, Royal C. Hayden Jr.

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

During the past 10 years, the collection and microscopic examination of human temporal bones has provided the opportunity to correlate clinical symptomatology and findings with histopathology. The case findings in this report support the clinical suspicion of glandular mucosal disease in some forms of secretory otitis media.

Sjögren's Syndrome In Childhood: Report Of A Case, Howard Duncan, Bruce N. Epker, Gerald M. Sheldon

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This report documents a rare case of Sjögren's Syndrome which began in a child with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis at the age 10 years, followed by the symptoms of xerostomia with intermittent salivary gland swelling 15 months later. By age 12 the patient had developed keratoconjunctivitis sicca. Variations in the intensity of each component of Sjögren's syndrome were noted to be independent of each other.

Relationship Between Sleep Deprivation And Postpartum Depression, Janet Wagner

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Postpartum depression was thought to be an important component of maternity blues and was the factor explored in this study. Sleep was hypothesized as a factor affecting either the occurrence or severity of postpartum depression. Hence, the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between sleep deprivation and postpartum depression.

Twenty patients were interviewed one to three weeks prior to their expected dates of delivery. The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Depression scale was administered during the interview and each patient kept a record of her hours of sleep during the following week. Each patient again kept a record …
