| serum somatomedin activity following adult tibial shaft fractures. | serum somatomedin (sm) activity was measured serially in 27 adults with closed tibial shaft fractures. sm activity was found to be normal in all but one specimen. the results indicate that sm activity does not reflect severity of trauma or the ability to heal on time in these fractures. | 2007 | 2613308 |
| prp (proline-rich protein) genes linked to markers es-12 (esterase-12), ea-10 (erythrocyte alloantigen), and loci on distal mouse chromosome 6. | the closely linked proline-rich protein (prp) genes, coding for abundant salivary proteins, are located on distal mouse chromosome 6. they are part of a conserved linkage group that is represented on human chromosome 12p. two other markers, ea-10 and es-12, that were previously unassigned to a chromosome are closely linked to prp genes in the mouse. | 1989 | 2613230 |
| two distinct areas of unequal crossingover within the steroid 21-hydroxylase genes produce absence of cyp21b. | we mapped crossover sites in chimeric, recombinant cyp21 genes from six patients with salt-losing congenital adrenal hyperplasia (cah). nucleotide sequences unique to the cyp21a pseudogene or to the active cyp21b gene were mapped using gene-specific restriction sites and oligonucleotide hybridizations. each chimeric cyp21 gene in the cyp21-deletion linked haplotypes contained sequences near the 5' end that were characteristic of cyp21a and only a single transition from sequences of cyp21a to tho ... | 2008 | 2613228 |
| cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma of the pancreas. | during the period 1963 to 1988, we treated 45 patients with cystic neoplasms of the pancreas. the patients were divided into group 1, which included 26 patients treated between 1963 and 1983, and group 2, which included 19 patients treated between 1984 and 1988. the rate of resection for cystadenoma was 67% for group 1 (n = 15) and 100% for group 2 (n = 11). the operative mortality rate was 0% for both groups. pathologically, 17 patients (69%) had serous cystadenoma and nine (31%) mucinous adeno ... | 2008 | 2613166 |
