anatomic basis of vascular exclusion of the liver.	segmental occlusive phlebography of the ivc, coupled with a slit in its posterior wall, injection of corrosive substances into the portal and hepatocaval network, biometry of the retrohepatic ivc and serial sections of injected livers from 64 subjects allowed a study of the anatomica aspects of vel: the pringle maneuver and clamping of the ivc above and below the hepatocaval connexion. surgery for hepatic tumors close to the connexion can benefit from vel but the right suprarenal and inferior ph ...	2011	3147531
nephrotoxic drugs.	the nephrotoxic effects of cyclosporine, aminoglycoside antibiotics, cisplatin, amphotericin b, beta-lactam antibiotics and indomethacin are reviewed. these drugs were chosen because they are among the most frequent causes of renal injury in children. in addition, their nephrotoxicity is caused by different mechanisms. several generalizations can be made, however. first, agents which cause tubular damage tend to be synergistic in their toxic effects. this synergism is seen when several nephrotox ...	2011	3153061
some biological and social factors of risk associated with the birth of pre-term infants.	the main purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of factors associated with spontaneous pre-term births so that the high risk woman could be identified before or at early stages of pregnancy. for this purpose, we have compared the measurements of 21 anthropometric traits and mean fluctuating asymmetry over 8 bilateral anthropometric traits, as well as age, occupation, education, previous obstetric history, complications during pregnancy, medicines received during and after pregn ...	2011	3169522
metastatic adenocarcinoma of the carpus: a case report.	a patient is described who presented with a painful swelling of the dorsum of the hand which arose from the hamate and proved histologically to be a secondary from a previously resected gastric adenocarcinoma.	2011	3171299
temperate phages and bacteriocins of the gliding bacterium cytophaga johnsonae.	a collection of 30 independently isolated strains of cytophaga johnsonae was screened for the presence of temperate bacteriophages. two strains were found to harbour phages. the newly isolated phages differ in several respects from the 43 previously isolated phages for c. johnsonae. both phages are polyhedral, approximately 60 nm in diameter, and have no apparent tail structure. they are chloroform sensitive, and plaque formation is inhibited by agar. both are capable of establishing a stable as ...	1988	3171539
a semi-automated microassay for complement activity.	a simple, automated microassay for the serum complement-dependent hemolytic activity is described here. in contrast to the traditional titration hemolysis assay, the new method depends on a single experimental step using a fixed volume of serum specimen and sheep erythrocytes. the assay is based on the change in light scattering properties of erythrocytes upon hemolysis. it relies on the spectrophotometric reading of microtiter well samples at 700 nm by using a microplate reader. the measured ab ...	1988	3183396

activity levels during isometric test contractions of neck and shoulder muscles.	in order to analyse isometric muscle test contractions in the neck and shoulder region, an electromyographic (emg) study of ten healthy females was undertaken. a series of 13 standardized isometric contractions with manual resistance was performed in the sitting position. rectified time-averaged emg was recorded, using surface electrodes. all tests activated all muscles studied to some extent and at various levels, but four different patterns of activation could be identified. maximum level of a ...	2011	3187464
estimation of the post mortem period by multiple-site temperature measurements and the use of a new algorithm.	the estimation of the post mortem period, in cases where death occurred under suspicious circumstances, is usually attempted using temperature measurements taken at a single body site. early investigations of the validity of such an approach use the abdominal skin surface, the axilla and the rectum as measurement sites (b.h. knight, forensic sci. int., 36 (1987) 47-55). however, it has recently become more common to use the rectum alone, though the ear and the nasal passages have also been utili ...	2011	3209149
predictive behavior of optokinetic eye movements.	optokinetic nystagmus is often thought of as a "primitive" oculomotor response, while smooth pursuit is thought of as a "higher" one. we have used conditions that are usually thought of as eliciting optokinetic responses; i.e., large-field stimuli confined to the retinal periphery, and instructions to subjects to respond passively. in spite of this, the responses showed predictive behavior similar to that described for smooth pursuit.	2010	3224671
[visceral candidiasis in conjunction with "marked eosinophilia" in acute opisthorchiasis].	a male of 31 has developed a marked eosinophilia associated with acute opisthorchiasis. the following heavy antibiotic treatment led to candidiasis of the liver, pancreas and lymph nodes. the study covered pathomorphology of the liver granulomatous inflammation which ran with formation of the specific crystalloid structures attributed to extensive eosinophilic decomposition. the reaction to immunoglobulins is proposed as an elective marked of pathogenic fungi in tissues.	2011	3233072

fluorocarbon (fc-43) in augmentation of tissue oxygen and its experimental use for flap survival.	the tissue po2 level in the skin of rats injected with fluorocarbon (fc-43) was measured by the microelectrode method and by a transcutaneous monitor. it was found that the tissue po2 in the animals injected with fc-43 was two to three times higher than that of the control group. neither the administration of fc-43 nor the inhalation of systemic oxygen improved flap survival in the rats.	1986	3273019

[wound healing of the pelvis following abdominoperineal rectum extirpation. a comparison of 2 drainage procedures in a prospective randomized study].	in a prospectively randomized study we used two different ways of drainage of the sacral space after an abdomino-perineal-resection of the rectum. one group with 25 patients had a drainage anteriorly through the abdominal wall, the other 25 patients got a drainage posteriorly through the buttocks. in each case we used two closed silicone-drainage-systems without active suction. in 60% of the anterior and in 50% of the posterior drained cases we saw an unaffected primary healing of the sacral wou ...	2012	3280267
ornithine cyclodeaminase from ti plasmid c58: dna sequence, enzyme properties and regulation of activity by arginine.	nopaline, an abundant opine in plant cells transformed with nopaline-type ti plasmids, is catabolized in agrobacterium by three ti-plasmid-coded steps via arginine and ornithine to proline. the last enzyme, ornithine cyclodeaminase (ocd), converts ornithine directly into proline with release of ammonia. we describe the dna sequence of the ocd gene from ti plasmid c58, antiserum against an ocd fusion protein overexpressed in escherichia coli, induction and identification of the gene product in ag ...	1988	3281832
characterization of the copper-thiolate cluster in yeast metallothionein and two truncated mutants.	cu-metallothionein was purified from saccharomyces cerevisiae harboring plasmids containing mutated cup1 metallothionein genes resulting in deletions at the carboxy-terminal end of the polypeptide. the truncated polypeptides are recovered as polypeptides of 35 and 48 residues in length. the cu-s cluster in the wild-type metallothionein and the two truncates were characterized. the truncated proteins, designated t35 and t48, contain 4 and 2 fewer cysteinyl residues, respectively, compared to the ...	1988	3283130
