chest pain, shock, and pneumomediastinum in a previously healthy 56-year-old man.it is apparent from this discussion that it may be exceedingly difficult to make the diagnosis of boerhaave's syndrome. the failure to correctly diagnose this patient was due, in part, to the absence of vomiting in the history. nevertheless, the presence of pneumomediastinum on the initial chest roentgenogram was a significant finding that was missed and would have suggested this diagnosis. this patient is an example of an "atypical" presentation and demonstrates that vomiting need not be a part ...19873813174
membrane pores in hypotonically dialyzed sheep erythrocytes remain open after three weeks of storage: entrapment of different stokes radius probes, [14c]sucrose and [3h]inulin.sheep carrier erythrocytes were prepared from dialyzed cells stored for 3 weeks. the initial pore size in freshly dialyzed cells exceeds the stokes radius of that for hemoglobin. hypotonically dialyzed erythrocytes are then very stable in a porous state. two probes of different stokes radius were used to determine the relative size of the pores. sheep erythrocytes entrap inulin to a greater extent than sucrose, a much smaller molecule. with storage, a greater fraction of dialyzed cells become im ...19863814359

[possibilities and weaknesses of psychopathometric diagnosis of dementia].as cognitive deficiencies in aged people constitute a growing factor in our societies, the possibilities for diagnosing dementia are described and analyzed critically. based on a discussion of those changes in intellectual performance which are typical for normal aging (e.g., reduction in so-called fluid intelligence combined with preservation of so-called crystallized intelligence), the pathological forms of aging, especially alzheimer's disease, are outlined. the present, internationally favor ...20093817714
paroxysmal hypertension due to sinoaortic baroreceptor denervation in humans.a 41-year-old man with a remote history of neck and mediastinal radiation was seen with severe paroxysms of hypertension, headache, and cutaneous flushing after bilateral carotid bypass surgery. investigation revealed marked parallel fluctuations in blood pressure and heart rate and elevation of plasma norepinephrine to 1164 pg/ml during a paroxysm. we systematically evaluated his arterial and cardiopulmonary baroreceptor reflex function by assessing changes in heart rate, arterial pressure, and ...19873818023
alcohol and traumatic brain damage.many head-injured patients have been drinking alcohol, and it has been suggested that the effect of a raised blood alcohol may be to potentiate brain damage after head injury. to investigate this, a study was carried out on 38 consecutive, recently head-injured patients admitted to the glasgow neurosurgical unit. conscious level, blood alcohol and serum creatine kinase bb (ckbb) were measured on admission (the latter by radioimmunoassay). conscious level related strongly to outcome (chi 2 = 11.6 ...20133818050
fibronectin gene expression in polymorphonuclear leukocytes. accumulation of mrna in inflammatory cells.using a fibronectin cdna probe, we have studied the accumulation of fibronectin mrna in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (pmn) in response to inflammation. nonactivated pmn from human peripheral blood were used as a source of noninflammatory cells and pmn from inflamed knee joints of patients with chronic inflammatory joint disorders (rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis) were used as a source of inflammatory cells. by dot blot and northern hybridization analysis, we have found the presence of fibrone ...19873818588
time course of the reaction of glial fibers in the somatosensory thalamus after lesions in the dorsal column nuclei.these experiments were designed to examine the relationship of glial hypertrophy to the time course of reactive synaptogenesis in the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the rat thalamus after lesions in the dorsal column nuclei. because synaptogenesis is delayed for 30 days following lesions of the dorsal column nuclei, the initial hypertrophy of the glial processes in response to degeneration can be separated temporally from synaptogenesis. glial hypertrophy was determined by measuring the relat ...19873819027

postnatal development of growth hormone and prolactin cells in male and female rat pituitary. an immunocytochemical light and electron microscopic study.localization and ultrastructural maturation of prolactin (prl) and growth hormone (gh) cells were studied in pituitaries from neonatal, immature (4-6 weeks old), and adult rats (2-3 months old) by light and electron microscopic immunocytochemistry. the distribution pattern of these cells did not change with age. both cell types were concentrated laterodorsally, with prl cells adjacent to the intermediate lobe and gh cells nearer the center of the pars distalis. labeling density of the immunogold ...19873819376
nonlipopolysaccharide protective antigens shared by classical and el tor biotypes of vibrio cholerae.the prophylactic significance of the nonlipopolysaccharide (non-lps) antigens of vibrio cholerae was investigated further with use of the infant mouse cholera model. of 16 strains examined to date, 12-including eight recent field isolates of both biotypes and both common serotypes-express common non-lps protective antigens. the exceptional strains are four old isolates of el tor biotype, the outer membrane proteins of which are not atypical when analyzed by immunoblotting. the protective activit ...19873819476
similarity principles and intrinsic geometries: contrasting approaches to interspecies scaling.we criticize standard allometric approaches on the grounds that they emphasize scaling to one variable at a time, whereas chemically reactive hydrodynamic systems involved in pharmacokinetic phenomena are of higher dimension. we show that attempts based on mechanical similitude to set a dosage that would be equivalent across species (for example, from mouse to humans) lead to ambiguous results. another failing of standard allometry may be its incapability to accommodate the neoteny of homo sapie ...19863820095
preparation and immunogenicity of a bivalent cell-surface protein-polysaccharide conjugate of vibrio cholerae.alkali-treated lipopolysaccharides (lps) from ogawa and inaba serotypes of vibrio cholerae were chemically coupled to cell-surface proteins of v. cholerae. the reaction product was eluted in the void volume when fractionated on a column of sephacryl s-300. the material did not enter the gel when subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate (sds-page). the bivalent protein-polysaccharide conjugate was nonpyrogenic, as determined by the limulus lysate ...19873820275

interdisciplinary approaches in epidemic studies--ii: four geographic models of the flow of contagious disease.straightforward adaptation of geographical and regional-science models to conceptual modeling of the epidemic spread of a contagious disease is achieved by: using analogies and isomorphisms, and using as a real example the observations made during a well studied epidemic of variola minor (the mild form of smallpox), a typical contagious disease. the adaptation of the wilson model of planning for urban development includes a static view (network) of the structure and activities of the population ...20133823998
low-density lipoprotein-receptor gene haplotypes in afrikaans-speaking patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia. further evidence in support of a founder gene.pvu ii and stu i restriction fragment length polymorphisms of the low-density lipoprotein-receptor gene were used for receptor allele haplotype analysis in 6 unrelated white afrikaans-speaking subjects with homozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (fh). five patients were homozygous for p-s+, one of four possible haplotypes, and 1 patient showed compound heterozygosity for p-s+ and p+s-. the haplotype distribution in these patients differed from the calculated distribution in the general afrika ...20133824088

effect of carbon and nitrogen sources on the chemical composition of lipids of rhizopus delemar.soy bean extract with glucose or oleic acid in the growth medium of rhizopus delemar affected the production of higher values of biomass, total lipids and total glycerides than when ammonium nitrate was used as a source of nitrogen. the highest amounts of biomass (12.35 g/l) and total lipids (310 mg/g dry biomass) were attained in glucose-grown mycelia. the high proportions of total glycerides and unsaturated fatty acids in lipids of rhizopus delemar suggest the utilization of such lipid materia ...19863825190
primary rhabdomyosarcoma combined with chronic paragonimiasis in the cerebrum: a necropsy case and review of the literature.a necropsy case of a primary rhabdomyosarcoma with chronic paragonimiasis in the cerebrum of a 68-year-old man is reported. the clinical data showed a right hemiplegia and dysarthria which became lethal in 6 months even though operation and radiation therapy were performed. computed tomography revealed a large low-density area associated with the peripheral enhancement in the left basal ganglia, and multiple conglomerated calcified masses in the left temporal and occipital lobes. biopsied and ne ...19863825517
non-01 vibrio cholerae infections in cancun, mexico.to determine the role of vibrio cholerae as a cause of diarrheal illness in cancun, mexico, an investigation was conducted in july and august 1983. although toxigenic v. cholerae 01 were not found, non-01 v. cholerae were isolated from 22 (16%) of 134 stools from persons with diarrheal illness and none of 22 stools from well persons; 58 (92%) of 63 sewage samples; 12 (86%) of 14 untreated well water samples; a home storage tank for treated water; and 5 (21%) of 24 samples of raw seafood. none of ...19873826498
nerve fibres and their terminals of the dura mater encephali of the rat.the dura mater encephali of the rat is richly supplied by myelinated (a-axons) and unmyelinated (c-axons) nerve fibres. for the supratentorial part the main nerve supply stems from all three branches of the trigeminal nerve. finally, 250 myelinated and 800 unmyelinated nerve fibres innervate one side of the supratentorial part. the vascular bed of the dura mater exhibits long postcapillary venules up to 200 micron in length with segments of endothelial fenestration. lymphatic vessels occur withi ...19873826655

a role for taste aversion learning in fla-57 induced reductions of voluntary alcohol intake.it has been proposed by amit, brown and colleagues that the reduction in voluntary alcohol intake observed after the administration of fla-57 in rats can be attributed to decreased ne levels produced by fla-57. our studies investigated whether a conditioned taste aversion could better explain this phenomenon. in the key study, two groups of rats were injected with fla-57 or ringers before drinking alcohol for five days, while a third group was injected with fla-57 before exposure to intragastric ...19873828060
