fatal shigellosis in a chimpanzee (pan troglodytes) in the jos zoo, nigeria. | shigellosis due to shigella dysenteriae was diagnosed in an adult male captive chimpanzee (pan troglodytes) which died suddenly after a brief recovery from illness lasting at least 3 wk. confirmatory diagnosis was based on postmortem examination and cultural isolation of shigella dysenteriae from the intestine, liver, lung, spleen and heart blood. | 1988 | 3280840 |
quality of commercially produced shigella serogrouping and serotyping antisera. | shigella grouping antisera from five manufacturers and typing antisera from two were purchased and evaluated with homologous and heterologous shigella strains in the slide agglutination test. only 31 of 73 (42%) antisera were satisfactory. in many instances, the antisera gave negative, as opposed to weak, reactions when they should have given strong positive reactions. four reagents cross-reacted with shigella strains. of the 19 polyvalent grouping antisera to subgroups shigella dysenteriae sero ... | 1988 | 3281972 |
cardiac nuclear medicine, present status, future hopes as seen from the view of a cardiologist. | the present techniques of nuclear medicine that are used in cardiology are critically evaluated. they are used mainly for the assessment of coronary circulation (measurement of regional flow and perfusion), on the determination of left ventricular muscle function (radionuclear ventriculography) and on the study of cardiac metabolism. the last-mentioned technique is unique insofar as (except for magnetic resonance imaging) there is no other method available to analyse myocardial metabolism noninv ... | 1988 | 3282883 |
pathogenesis of shigella diarrhea: evidence for a developmentally regulated glycolipid receptor for shigella toxin involved in the fluid secretory response of rabbit small intestine. | shigella toxin reproduces the major manifestations of shigellosis in ligated intestinal loops from adult rabbits and binds to a microvillus membrane (mvm) glycolipid receptor, globotriaosylceramide (gb3). because neonatal human shigellosis is uncommon, we used the animal model for obtaining mvms from rabbits of different ages to determine the presence of toxin receptors and gb3 and to measure the fluid secretory response to toxin in ligated ileal loops. a single class of mvm receptors for 125i-l ... | 1988 | 3283253 |

separation of hemoglobins and hemoglobin chains by high-performance liquid chromatography. | this paper evaluates various high-performance liquid chromatographic (hplc) procedures useful for the detection and evaluation of numerous hemoglobin abnormalities in adults and in newborn infants. two major approaches are discussed. the first concerns the analyses of hemoglobins in red cell lysates by anion- and cation-exchange chromatography; this type of hplc has great potential in a routine laboratory, as quantitative data for numerous abnormalities can readily be obtained. the second concer ... | 2012 | 3305544 |
a new chromogenic test for the detection of urokinase in the genus shigella. | a simple test for detection of urokinase in shigella is described. the test is performed by suspending a loopful of bacteria in 100 microliters of a buffered 1mm solution of benzoyl-beta-alanyl glycyl-arginyl-4-nitroanilide acetate (chromozym u). enzymatic activity is revealed by formation of a yellow colour after 24 h of incubation at 37 degrees c. the test is able to differentiate serotypes of shigella dysenteriae, shigella flexneri, shigella boydii. the results suggest the possibility of incl ... | 1987 | 3306294 |
chronobiology and epidemiology. | epidemiology and chronobiology are two emerging scientific disciplines of the 20th century. in the united states and certain european and asian countries, epidemiology is a well-developed science; however, in many countries the field is not yet well practiced. too, in several european countries and certain centers in the united states, chronobiology is quite well known and respected as a science. yet, in many countries this field is just now being recognized. although epidemiologists are concern ... | 1987 | 3306581 |
iron regulation of shiga-like toxin expression in escherichia coli is mediated by the fur locus. | shiga-like toxin is an iron-regulated cytotoxin quite similar to shiga toxin from shigella dysenteriae 1. the structural genes for shiga-like toxin in escherichia coli (slta and sltb) appear to be transcribed as an operon from a promoter upstream of slta. we used a gene fusion between the promoter and proximal portion of slta with the gene for bacterial alkaline phosphatase to assess the regulation of toxin expression. growth in low-iron conditions resulted in a 13- to 16-fold increase in alkali ... | 1987 | 3308853 |
differentiation of shigella by esterase electrophoretic polymorphism. | the electrophoretic mobilities of four esterases (a, b, c, and i) of 182 strains of shigella dysenteriae, s. flexneri, s. boydii and s. sonnei were compared to those of 636 strains of escherichia coli from various origins, including the alkalescens dispar group and enteroinvasive strains. discriminant analysis of the distribution of esterases among the strains revealed that shigella could be distinguished from e. coli by differences in the distribution of allozymes of esterases c and i. principa ... | 1987 | 3309172 |
[the central nervous system and stomach as target organ: the diencephalic-gastric axis]. | gastric functions are controlled by local and hormonal mediators as well as by viscero-afferent nerve fibers and by efferents from the central nervous system. experiments using lesions of specific brain regions and electrical stimulation demonstrated that distinct brain areas like parts of the hypothalamus, the amygdala and the nucleus ambiguous regulate gastric functions. apart from classic neurotransmitters, in recent years, neuropeptides have been initially identified in the gastrointestinal ... | 2011 | 3310434 |
hemolytic uremic syndrome associated with shigellosis: report of two cases. | two patients with hemolytic uremic syndrome admitted to udornthani hospital, thailand, were reported. the preceding illness was shigellosis. the stool culture was positive for shigella dysenteriae in one patient and shigella flexneri in another. the management was successful with peritoneal dialysis in one and symptomatic treatment in another. both patients had complete recovery. | 1987 | 3313740 |

a comparison of the effects of measured, predicted, estimated and constant residual volumes on the body density of female athletes. | the body density (bd), and hence the relative body fat (% bf) was measured for 182 female athletes. the residual volume (rv) was determined both before and after the underwater weighing by a multiple breath helium dilution technique with the subject immersed to neck level. the absolute mean difference (lxdl) and see between the two rv trials were 63 and 75 ml, respectively. these increased to values ranging 144-685 and 187-252 ml, respectively, when the mean of the two rv trials for each subject ... | 1988 | 3366515 |
cytogenetic evaluation of bone marrow involvement in burkitt's lymphoma. | twenty-six bone marrow samples from 21 patients with burkitt's lymphoma were examined cytogenetically after short-term culture. clonal chromosomal changes were detected in one of 18 samples from morphologically normal marrows, and in three out of six samples with verified tumor invasion. three patients had the translocation (8;14)(q24;q32) and one had t(2;8)(p12;q24). two samples with suspect tumor involvement (less than 5% putative tumor cells) showed no clonal abnormalities. in two samples wit ... | 2005 | 3367654 |

[hoof diseases as a result of stall floor defects]. | the pig's hoof is characterized by sudden changes between hard and soft horn and a high growth rate of the horn wall. these facts contribute to the high incidence of hoof alterations, which is seen in various inadequate floors. hoof alterations are only painful in cases, where the corium is irritated. some hoof alterations are described, the question of poor footing is discussed. the author provides recommendations regarding the recognition of inadequate barn floors and their improvement. stable ... | 1988 | 3368898 |

ruptured tibialis posterior tendon in a closed ankle fracture. | interposition of a ruptured tibialis posterior tendon between the medial malleolar fracture fragments in a closed pronation-eversion ankle fracture occurred in a 21-year-old woman. the tendon rupture was not diagnosed before surgery but was recognized at the time of open reduction. the tendon was repaired and the fracture internally fixed. twelve months after the operation, the patient had a nearly full range of pain-free ankle movements and a normal longitudinal arch. | 2012 | 3370869 |
a long term follow up of resection interposition arthroplasty of the knee using chromicized fascia lata. | we have reviewed the results of 25 patients who had a resection interposition arthroplasty of the knee using chromicized fascia lata, with a mean follow-up of 22 years. no patient had severe pain although 10 had occasional pain after heavy labour. thirteen knees had 60 degrees of movement or more but 12 had 45 degrees or less. the radiographs all showed adaptive remodelling of the resected bone ends. this procedure successfully restored function in the majority of cases with absence of pain over ... | 2012 | 3372105 |
cytochrome p-450-catalyzed dehydrogenation of 1,4-dihydropyridines. | a variety of different 4-substituted 1,4-dihydropyridine hantzsch esters are substrates for ring dehydrogenation by a cytochrome p-450 (p-450) enzyme (p-450 ut-a); the substitutent could be varied from a hydrogen to a naphthalenyl, but a pyrenyl derivative was not dehydrogenated. when a 4-alkyl group is present, both the p-450 which oxidizes the substrate and other p-450s can be inactivated (by putative alkyl radicals). p-450s did not discriminate with regard to removal of the 4-h atoms from an ... | 1988 | 3372517 |

study of humidification potential of a heat and moisture exchanger in tracheotomized dogs. | though a heat and moisture exchanger (hme) has been used in clinical practice following a tracheotomy on a limited basis, no work has been done to document the humidification potential of an hme in this situation. eighteen dogs underwent tracheotomy and were killed at either 1 day (nine dogs) or 10 days (nine dogs) postoperatively. following the tracheotomy, the animals were divided into three groups according to the type of humidification received: ambient conditions, warm mist, or hme. the tra ... | 1988 | 3377401 |
