| spontaneous pulmonary torsion. | a patient with systemic manifestations of sepsis after above-knee amputation developed massive left pulmonary atelectasis and pneumonia. these persisted despite repeated bronchoscopies. at thoracotomy, 180 degrees torsion of the left lung was found. the patient improved temporarily but died later of sepsis, probably related to severe hip osteomyelitis. | 2013 | 3581945 |
| varied appearance of cardiac pseudoaneurysms on blood pool images. | three cases of cardiac pseudoaneurysms were presented, with findings at the time of gated blood pool imaging. in only one of three was there the finding of a small neck connecting the ventricular cavity with the pseudoaneurysm. in the other two patients, there was a considerably larger communication. the size of the pseudoaneurysm itself was also of little diagnostic assistance. in one case it was small, while in a second patient it was larger in size. the third case revealed a pseudoaneurysm of ... | 2013 | 3595025 |
| intracellular water and ionic shifts during growth and ageing of rats. | as measured by x-ray microanalysis of frozen-dried cryosections, physiological concentrations of phosphorus, na+, k+ and mg2+ show a biphasic age dependence in some compartments of rat hepatocytes, especially in the regions of condensed chromatin associated with the actively transcribed genes. this could be consistent with a reactivation of the protein synthesizing apparatus in old livers. the decrease in intracellular water concentrations in hepatocytes and myocytes during ageing is shown to be ... | 1987 | 3600050 |

| early postnatal development of eeg and sleep-waking cycle in two inbred mouse strains. | the postnatal maturation of brain electrical activity and sleep-waking cycle were studied in two inbred mouse strains (c57bl and balbc), previously differentiated in their sleep patterns at adult age. genetic differences are evident during the first postnatal period (until day 12) in the maturation of electrical activity which is both earlier and slower in c57bl than in balbc. on the other hand, from day 12 onwards, as soon as the sleep-waking cycle can be defined by using eeg morphology to sele ... | 1985 | 4041918 |
| visual perspective-taking skills in children. | the present study evaluated the effects of stimulus complexity and rule usage on a visual perspective-taking task. preschoolers, first, third, and fifth graders, and adults were shown arrays of dolls and performed a series of perspective-taking tasks. errors decreased with age, and more errors occurred with the more complex visual arrays. a significant number of errors were made in self-view trials, especially by the preschoolers, showing that the ability to relate an array to a pictorial repres ... | 2012 | 4053740 |
