short leg correction: a clinical trial of radiographic vs. non-radiographic procedures.	visual leg length insufficiency detection and correction is compared with established radiographic procedures on 41 consecutive patients presenting to a chiropractic clinic with low back pain. it is commonly accepted that the most accurate procedure of short leg demonstration is the standing x ray. visual correction, as described by rene cailliet, uses three anatomical points of reference: a) iliac crest levelness, b) vertical appraisal of the spine from the sacral base (the spine should be perp ...	2013	3694061
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 ...	2013	3694032

effects of cold stress on brain regional calcium content in rats and mice.	the calcium levels of striatum, cerebellum, cortex, medulla and diencephalon from rat brain were significantly reduced after 30 minutes of cold exposure at 8 degrees c even though body temperatures were no different from pre-cold exposure values. calcium content remained significantly depressed in striatum, cerebellum and diencephalon after 2 hours of cold exposure, at which time body temperatures were significantly depressed. a similar effect of short-term cold stress on calcium content in thes ...	1987	3690357
effects of changed lipid composition on responses of liposomes to various odorants: possible mechanism of odor discrimination.	in a previous paper [nomura, t., & kurihara, k. (1987) biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)], we showed that azolectin liposomes are depolarized by various odorants and there is a good correlation between the responses in the liposomes and the frog or porcine olfactory responses. in this study, we examined effects of changed lipid composition on responses of liposomes to various odorants. the membrane potential changes in response to odorants were monitored with the fluorescent dye 3,3'- ...	1987	3689768
decisions relating to alcohol-impaired driving: an exploratory analysis.	this paper focuses on an individual's decision to drive or not to drive after drinking. to evaluate this decision, a utility maximizing probabilistic choice model is specified and estimated using a sample of college students. the estimation results provide interesting insights relating to the potential effectiveness of drinking-driving countermeasures, and suggest that the most effective methods of reducing the probability of driving after drinking are those advertising and awareness campaigns t ...	2013	3689555
