[the treatment of hepatic emergencies].	hepatic emergency means impending or manifest hepatic insufficiency. it is caused by acute and even more often by chronic liver diseases. the patient has to be hospitalized for treatment. basic treatment is of utmost importance. it can be done in every intensive-care unit: careful monitoring and treatment of any complication as well as reduction of toxic protein degradation products by protein restriction, bowel emptying, and enteral application of lactulose and/or neomycin. the infusion of spec ...	1979	107099
raised intracranial pressure: its management in neisseria meningitidis meningoencephalitis.	further reduction in morbidity and mortality from bacterial meningitis is unlikely to stem from innovations in antibiotic management. emphasis must therefore be directed toward prevention, more rapid diagnosis, and improved therapy for maintaining the integrity of the cns. raised intracranial pressure is frequently associated with bacterial meningitis. in selected patients with bacterial meningitis and clinical evidence of elevated intracranial pressure, monitoring and aggressive treatment of th ...	1979	106721
familial hyperphosphatasemia: diagnosis in early infancy and response to human thyrocalcitonin therapy.	familial hyperphosphatasemia is an uncommon hereditary disorder of membranous bone with concurrent overproduction and overdestruction of bone and bone collagen by osteocytes. this process does not allow normal maturation into compact lamellar bone. two cases of severely affected children are presented which demonstrate that the condition can be diagnosed in early infancy by abnormalities in the long bones. at this stage the skull may appear normal and the characteristic thickening of the calvari ...	1979	106682

experimental pyelonephritis in the monkey. vi. infection of infants versus adults.	pyelonephritis followed ureteral inoculation of bacteria in both infant and adult monkeys. because of the frequency of reflux in infants this was done by bladder inoculation, although ureteral inoculation was necessary in adults. the longer duration of bacteriuria in infants may be attributable to a relative immunodeficiency.	1978	101479
hemolytic streptococci in supramammary lymph nodes from healthy pigs from the peruvian jungle.	hemolytic streptococci were isolated from 53 percent (18) supramammary lymph nodes from healthy adult pigs raised at the peruvian jungle. the isolates were identified as streptococcus zooepidemicus, streptococcus infrequens, streptococcus faecalis and groups p and s. the possible significance of the findings are discussed.	1978	101478
organochlorines in fish and crabs from the kristiansand fjord in norway.	the levels of sum-ddt, pcbs, and hcb in fish liver and crab hepatopancreas from the kristiansand fjord area in norway have been determined (fig. 1). the respective mean levels (fat weight basis) in stationary fish species and crabs are given in table i. the levels of pcbs and sum-ddt were about the same, and the hcb level two to one hundred times higher than corresponding levels reported for codfish (liver) from several harbours along the norwegian coasts (brevik et al. in press). the levels cal ...	1999	99726
pacing-induced alternate wenckebach periods: incidence and clinical significance.	alternate wenckebach periods have been defined as episodes of 2:1 atrioventricular (av) block in which conducted p waves exhibit progressive pr prolongation until two or three successively blocked p waves. ocurrence of this phenomenon during atrial pacing has been established. thirty-six patients were studied and right atrial pacing was achieved at increasing rates up to 350 beats/min in order to induce alternate wenckebach periods. his bundle recordings were obtained in every patient. the patie ...	2001	95224

cytologic investigations in chlamydia infection.	chlamydia is an extremely common genital infection. it can cause serious disseminated disease and can infect the neonate and the sexual partner. morphologically, chlamydia infection was identified in routine fast smears obtained from 160 women. chlamydia infection manifests as intracytoplasmic coccoid and inclusion bodies in the metaplastic cells. infected cells also reveal cytomegaly and multinucleation. immunofluorescence studies, electron microscopy, tissue studies, histochemical techniques a ...	1979	93839

chronic progressive myelopathy: investigation with csf electrophoresis, evoked potentials, and ct scan.	chronic progressive myelopathy (cpm) is a difficult clinical problem. many patients who present with cpm turn out to have a spinal form of multiple sclerosis (ms), but until there is clear lesion dissemination, a definite clinical diagnosis cannot be made. we have looked for ms-related abnormalities in 72 patients with cpm. the mean age of onset was 42 years, mean duration was ten years, and mean kurtzke disability rating was 4.5. studies performed were cerebrospinal fluid electrophoresis for ol ...	2001	92910

binding of 125i-labeled proteinases to plasma proteins in cystic fibrosis.	samples of plasma or serum from 53 cystic fibrosis (cf) patients, 90 relatives of cf patients , and 159 controls have been incubated with porcine or bovine 125i-trypsin, electrophoresed on polyacrylamide gel, and autoradiographed. in these individuals, the main binding protein for 125i-trypsin has been shown to be alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2m). using this method of analysis, no difference in electrophoretic migration of 125i-trypsin-alpha 2m complexes has been observed between cf and control ...	1979	92005

role of endothelium in sequestration of lipoprotein and firbrinogen in aortic lesions, thrombi, and graft pseudo-intimas.	in the soft, gelatinous thickenings that appear to be the precursors of fibrous plaques, concentrations of plasma low-density lipoproteins (lp) and fibrinogen were three to four times higher than that in normal intima, but their concentrations of fibrin was not significantly higher. by contrast, in 60% of cholesterol-rich areas from more advanced plaques, fibrin (mean concentration 22.7 mg/100 mg lipid-extracted dry weight) was ten times higher than normal, and this was associated with a twelve- ...	1998	90916

the pathophysiology of asthma.	because postmortem studies of humans provide little information on the initial pathophysiologic events in asthma, animal models have been developed. recently the ascaris-allergic rhesus monkey has provided an opportunity to examine the onset of pathophysiologic changes following challenge and to correlate them with airway structure. these studies have suggested that the initial interaction between antigen and mast cells may occur in the bronchial lumen or in the epithelium superficial to the tig ...	1979	89006
enzymic polyadenylation of 5s ribosomal ribonucleic acid and synthesis of a complementary deoxyribonucleic acid.	the 5s ribosomal rna has been isolated, pure and intact, from rat liver (5 mg of 5s rna from 150g of liver). the 5s rna serves as a primer for calf thymus poly(a) polymerase with 20% of the efficiency of (ap)3a. bacterial 5s rna and transfer rna also serve as primers; rat liver 18s and 28s ribosomal rnas support poly(a) synthesis poorly. neither the 5s rna primer nor the appended poly(a) tract is nicked or degraded by poly(a) polymerase, and initiation of poly(a) tracts on 5s rna primers continu ...	1979	88957

screening for congenital hypothyroidism: results of screening one million north american infants.	pilot programs for screening of newborn infants for congenital hypothyroidism began in north america in 1972. to date, the five oldest programs (quebec, pittsburgh, toronto, oregon regional, and new england regional) have screened 1,046,362 infants. a total of 277 infants with congenital hypothyroidism have been detected and seven have been missed, resulting in a total of 284 affected infants in the screened population and an overall incidence of one in 3,684 live births. of the affected infants ...	2000	87512
immune suppression in vivo with antigen-modified syngeneic cells. ii. t cell-mediated nonresponsiveness to fowl gamma-globulin.	intravenous administration of syngeneic spleen cells coupled with the palmitoyl derivative of fowl gammma-globulin (p-f gamma g) results in a profound state of f gamma g-specific tolerance in c57bl/6 mice. administration of p-f gamma g coupled syngeneic cells specifically reduces both the primary and secondary hapten and carrier-specific pfc responses to tnp-f gamma g. since the haptenic response is affected, the tolerance functions at the level of the f gamma g-specific helper t cell. as few as ...	1979	87447
