the roles of endothelium, platelets, and smooth muscle cells in intimal healing.the continual remodeling of the artery wall significantly narrows the lumen. it contributes to the development of atherosclerotic plaque through the incorporation of lipid into the arterial intima. the steps in the repair of arterial intima include platelet accumulation followed by leukocyte attachment to denuded areas, smooth muscle migration from the media, deposition of extracellular connective tissue components, and endothelial progression seem related to re-endothelialization, platelets, th ...197898967
improved safety of splenoportography by plugging of the needle tract.splenoportography, a useful preoperative diagnostic procedure in patients with portal hypertension, has been largely discontinued because of the risk of hemorrhage. we have used both ivalon and gelfoam in particle and plug form to plug the needle tract after splenoportography. initial studies were conducted on six dogs. plugging of the needle tract by injection of suspensions of small gelfoam or ivalon particles resulted in intravasation of these particles into the splenic vein. this was demonst ...197898987
microradiographic demonstration of pyelolymphatic backflow in the porcine kidney.pyelolymphatic backflow occurs when intrapelvic pressure rises acutely. although peripelvic and hilar lymphatics have occasionally been demonstrated during intravenous urography and retrograde pyelography, the patterns of intrarenal microlymphatic filling have not previously been studied radiographically in multipapillary kidneys. microradiography was performed after retrograde ureteral injections of barium sulfate suspension in recently excised pig kidneys. contrast filled the ducts of bellini ...197898998
jaundice and breast-feeding among alaskan eskimo newborns.the course, incidence, and severity of neonatal jaundice was studied in 95 alaskan eskimo infants. breast-fed infants had higher bilirubin concentrations than bottle-fed babies. both groups experienced high bilirubin levels, similar to those previously reported in navajo and oriental infants but greater than those observed in whites and blacks. a marked capacity to inhibit hepatic glucuronyl transferase was observed in breast-milk specimens but only partly accounted for the bilirubin differences ...197899026
interferon inducing activity of polyinosinic acid.although poly(i) is generally considered to be inactive as an interferon inducer, we have found several authentic poly(i) preparations to be effective inducers. their interferon inducing ability varied considerably from one cell system to another. in human diploid fibroblasts, primed with interferon and superinduced by cycloheximide and actinomycin d, all active poly(i) samples proved nearly as effective in inducing interferon as poly(i).poly(c). in primary rabbit kidney cell cultures, the activ ...197899486

lumbar spondylectomy in the subhuman primate.removal of the 2nd or 3rd lumbar vertebrae (or both) has been accomplished in the subhuman primate (macaca mulatta). variations between this animal and the dog in posture, vertebral column anatomy, and spinal cord blood supply made no apparent difference in the results when compared with those in previous experiments. all macaques were able to clinb and to use their hind legs in a normal manner within 3 days after surgical operation. once hair had regrown over the surgical incision, persons not ...1978100028
controlled trial of 6-month and 8-month regimens in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. first report.four short-course antituberculosis regimens allocated at random were studied; (1) streptomycin, isoniazid, and rifampin given daily for 6 months; (2) these 3 drugs plus pyrazinamide given daily for 2 months, followed by twice-weekly administration of streptomycin, isoniazid, and pyrazinamide; (3) a regimen that differed from regimen 2 only in that ethambutol replaced pyrazinamide, and (4) streptomycin plus isoniazid plus rifampin plus pyrazinamide given 3 times per week for 4 months, followed by ...1978100029
[cannabis].cannabis produces a resin, the psychotropic effects of which are known since the high antiquity. it induces euphoria, a feeling of pleasant dreaminess. nevertheless, psychiatric disturbances such as psychomotor deficiency states or acute oniroïd states were described in heavy users countries. these psychiatric disorders put the accent on the starting or catalysing role of cannabis on the premorbid personality. the experimental studies of cannabis on the premorbid personality. the experimental st ...1978100034
effect of a staphylococcin on neisseria gonorrhoeae.phage group 2 staphylococcal strain ut0002 contains a large 56s virulence plasmid with genes that code for both exfoliative toxin and a specific staphylococcin termed bac r(1). four penicillinase-producing strains and three penicillin-susceptible strains of neisseria gonorrhoeae were killed by bac r(1). after 30 min of growth of the penicillin-resistant tr1 strain in 62.5 arbitrary units of bac r(1) per ml, loss of viability was approximately 90%, and, after 5 h, an approximately 99.99% loss of ...1978100049
morphology of freeze-etched treponema refringens (nichols).the freeze-etch technique was used to study the morphology of treponema refringens (nichols). there is a single band of cytoplasmic fibrils which follows a path in the form of a right-handed helix with a periodicity of 1500 nm around the body of the treponeme just below the cytoplasmic membrane. there are two major fracture planes, one located in the interior of the outer envelope and the second in the interior of the cytoplasmic membrane. the "blebs" or "surface protuberances", which are quite ...1978100069
uracil incorporation in the forespore and the mother cell during spore development in bacillus subtilis. autoradiographic electron microscopic study.the transcriptional activity of the two genomes of the sporangium during spore formation was determined by pulse-labeling bacteria with 3h-uracil at different times of sporulation and preparing them for high resolution autoradiography. the quantitative analysis of autoradiographs shows that uracile incorporation in the whole sporangium decreases considerably between stages ii and iv. however, the variations of the transcriptional activity are not identical in the mother cell and in the forespore ...1978100071
