triple arthrodesis. a critical long-term review.the results of triple arthrodesis performed in 80 feet and followed for an average of 13 years are reviewed. although the majority of patients were very pleased, the results of objective assessment were less favourable. there was a high incidence of degenerative joint changes in the ankle and midfoot and also of pseudarthrosis, avascular necrosis of the talus and residual deformity. pre-operative rigid equinovarus deformity produced the majority of the poor results. it is suggested that bony res ...20143958012
on dying more than one death.death (with a capital d) can best be understood as a series of distinct but related deaths. for example, a pregnant woman was found to be brain-dead but her vital functions were artificially sustained for nine weeks until her fetus could be delivered, after which the machines were removed and she died a second, conceptually distinct death. this procedure is probably justifiable, but any legislation or policy regarding such cases should be flexible and should require consent.19863957650
iron losses in sweat.the losses of iron in whole body cell-free sweat were determined in eleven healthy men. a new experimental design was used with a very careful cleaning procedure of the skin and repeated consecutive sampling periods of sweat in a sauna. the purpose was to achieve a steady state of sweat iron losses with minimal influence from iron originating from desquamated cells and iron contaminating the skin. a steady state was reached in the third sauna period (second sweat sampling period). iron loss was ...20143953482

effects of increased cell mass and altered gene dosage on the timing of initiation of macronuclear dna synthesis in paramecium tetraurelia. implications for cell cycle regulation.in paramecium, cell mass and macronuclear dna content can vary substantially, and both variables affect the timing of initiation of macronuclear dna synthesis. cells normally begin macronuclear dna synthesis at 0.25 in the cell cycle when the mean cell mass is about 119% of the initial value. gene mutations were used to alter cell size by temporarily blocking cell cycle progression and to change dna content by altering the segregation pattern of macronuclear material to daughter nuclei at fissio ...20133709689

adolescent versus adult thyroid carcinoma.several significant differences exist between adolescent and adult thyroid carcinoma. the incidence of malignancy in nodular goiter is higher in children than it is in adults. thyroid cancer in childhood and adolescence has a slightly lower predilection for female than for male subjects, as compared to adult patients. the younger patients have a predominance of well-differentiated carcinomas which are more likely to be papillary. the lesions in the young age group tend to be more advanced locall ...20133702570

theory on thermal probe arrays for the distinction between the convective and the perfusive modalities of heat transfer in living tissues.recent suggestions for an improved model of heat transfer in living tissues emphasize the existence of a convective mode due to flowing blood in addition to, or even instead of, the perfusive mode, as proposed in pennes' "classic" bioheat equation. in view of these suggestions, it might be beneficial to develop a technique that will enable one to distinguish between these two modes of bioheat transfer. to this end, a concept that utilizes a multiprobe array of thermistors in conjunction with a r ...20133695437
laryngeal trauma vs length of intubation.the frequency histograms of six patients' laryngographs were studied pre- and post-endotracheal intubation. the changes were correlated with the length of intubation. the post-operative hoarse voice was seen as an increase in the spread of the lower frequencies, and an increase in the fundamental frequency. the latter change was thought to be a subconscious compensation for the hoarseness. the increased lower frequency spread as measured by standard deviation was directly proportional to the len ...20133694032
