The Magical Computer, David Morgan Lochhead

Dr. David Morgan Lochhead

David Lochhead's speech: "Two years ago, I had the privilege of giving the opening address at the first CAMCON. I opened that address by posing the question "Does God love Computers?" Today I would like to start with a related question. What makes computers loveable? "


Prediction Of Fracture In Patients With Acute Musculoskeletal Ankle Trauma, Paula Diehr Jan 1988

Prediction Of Fracture In Patients With Acute Musculoskeletal Ankle Trauma, Paula Diehr

Paula Diehr

X-rays taken for ankle trauma contribute significantly to the cost of health care in this country. In an attempt to find clinical correlates of ankle fracture 36 detailed historical and physical examination variables were collected from 587 consecutive patients with ankle trauma, and ankle x-rays were taken of all patients. The association of each variable with the final diagnosis of fracture, rupture, or sprain was tested; 21 variables were significant predictors of fracture (vs. sprain and rupture) and 15 were not significantly associated with final diagnosis. The variables were used in a linear discriminant analysis to develop a rule which …

We have examined the nuclear localization of isoprenylated proteins in CHO-K1 cells labeled with [14C]mevalonate. Nuclear proteins of 68, 70, and 74 kD, posttranslationally modified by an isoprenoid, are also components of a nuclear matrix-intermediate filament preparation from CHO cells. Furthermore, the 68-, 70-, and 74-kD isoprenylated polypeptides are immunoprecipitated from cell extracts with two different anti-lamin antisera. Based on exact two-dimensional comigration with lamin B, both from rat liver lamin and CHO nuclear matrix-intermediate filament preparations, and its immunoprecipitation with anti-lamin antisera, we conclude that the 68-kD isoprenylated protein found in nuclei from [14C]mevalonate-labeled CHO cells is lamin B. …
