current concepts in the management of soft tissue sarcomas of the extremities.in recent years the orthopaedist has become the initial physician to see soft tissue neoplasms. a review of the current concepts of treatment of these lesions, therefore, seems to be in order.20103030471
relationship between directed visual attention and saccadic reaction times.saslow (1967) and fischer and ramsperger (1984) found that saccadic reaction time (srt) depends on the interval between the fixation point offset and the target onset. using a continuously visible fixation point, we asked whether a similar function would be obtained if subjects attended to a peripherally viewed point extinguished at variable intervals before or after the target onset. the interval was varied between -500 ms (i.e., attention stimulus offset after saccade target onset = overlap tr ...20103224663

[basal and gonadotropin releasing hormone-stimulated gonadotropin secretion in patients with chronic uremia].in 11 patients with chronic uremia both the basal and stimulated levels of lh and fsh in serum were determined by ria. after renal transplantation the investigations were repeated in 2 cases. the basal levels of lh were unphysiologically increased whereas fsh was found in the normal range. the stimulation of lh by gnrh was adequate in 6 patients and in 5 there was no response. as a result of renal transplantation there was a drop of lh in serum. it is supposed that the unphysiological increase o ...20103137735

chondrosarcoma of the temporal bone. diagnosis and treatment of 13 cases and review of the literature.chondrosarcoma of the temporal bone is a rare lesion. clinically it has been confused with multiple sclerosis, glomus jugulare tumors, meningioma, and chordomas. the cranial nerve palsies frequently observed with the tumors are related to the anatomic locations of the tumors. thirteen patients with this entity are presented and the eleven other cases in the literature are reviewed. histologically the tumors are low grade and exhibit myxoid features. the myxoid features must be differentiated fro ...20103022910
a simple sensitive prenatal test for hydrops fetalis caused by alpha-thalassaemia.slot blot analysis was used to differentiate between the genotypes of homozygous alpha-thalassaemia and those of haemoglobin-h disease and alpha-thalassaemia trait. the method is simple and rapid because restriction enzyme digestion and gel electrophoresis are not needed. because of the great sensitivity of the test, as little as 0.5 micrograms of dna can be studied with an 35s-labelled probe which has a longer isotopic half life than the 32p probes normally used for gene mapping. this assay sho ...20102857027
physical aspects of radiation treatment. some past and present developments with implications for the future.some aspects of the development and initial use of high energy photons and electrons are discussed, including the initial roles of kerst and quastler. analytical developments in brachytherapy are also described. relative to orthovoltages, the availability of high energy photons and electrons have provided the opportunity for concentration of ionizing energy anywhere in the body. computer methods became necessary to handle the number of computations required in treatment planning, and the develop ...20103098086

sequence dependent dna conformations: raman spectroscopic studies and a model of action of restriction enzymes.raman spectra have been examined to clarify the polymorphic forms of dna, a, b, and z forms. from an analysis we found that the guanine ring breathing vibration is sensitive to its local conformation. examination of nine crystals of guanosine residues in which the local conformations are well established revealed that a guanosine residue with a c3'endo-anti gives a strong line at 666 +/- 2 cm-1, o4'endo-anti at 682 cm-1, c1'exo-anti at 673 cm-1, c2'endo-anti at 677 cm-1 and syn-forms around 625 ...20103010660
problems related to diet management of maternal phenylketonuria.provision of nutritionally complete elemental diets for pregnant women with pku requires greater knowledge of 'conditionally' essential nutrient requirements than is presently available as well as application of known information. formulation of elemental products needs to be improved to enhance aroma and taste and to decrease osmolality. designers of the metal and vitamin components should keep in mind that a major portion (70-80%) of most of these nutrients must be obtained from the elemental ...20102877116

[isotope angiocardiographic study of 30 cases of ventricular tachycardia with fourier phase analysis].twenty-seven patients (15 men, 12 women; mean age 48.9 years) suffering from ventricular tachycardia (vt) (n = 30) were studied by radionuclide angiocardiography with fourier phase analysis, both in sinus rhythm and during tachycardia. vt was spontaneous, electrically inducible, sustained, haemodynamically stable and monomorphous, with a mean rate of 174 beats/min (range: 115-260 beats). heart diseases responsible for vt were: non-obstructive cardiomyopathy (n = 7), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy ( ...20113136707
the adenylate cyclase rebound response to naloxone in the ng108-15 cells. effects of etorphine and other opiates.the adenylate cyclase (ac) of the neuroblastoma-glioma hybrid cells (ng108-15), is generally considered to be a model for the study of the biochemical correlates of opiate tolerance and dependence. however, the naloxone-induced rebound response of adenylate cyclase, described in some recent reports, is much smaller than that originally described by sharma, klee and nirenberg (1975). possible explanations for these discrepancies are: (1) a marked down-regulation of opioid receptors and tolerance ...20113022177

tear fluid ph in normals, contact lens wearers, and pathological cases.the ph of the conjunctival fluid was measured with a micro-glass-electrode in the inferior conjunctival fornix of 200 persons. among 41 binocularly normal persons the ph was found to be 6.93 +/- 0.24 (mean +/- sd) of the primarily examined eye, independent of sex and age. the conjunctival fluid was significantly more acid in contact lens wearers (6.66 +/- 0.28, n = 26), but became normalized after removal of the lens (6.49 +/- 0.32----7.09 +/- 0.19, n = 8, p less than 0.001. the conjunctival flu ...20113218470

changes in body proportions of japanese medical students between 1961 and 1986.since 1945, the japanese physique has changed a great deal. physical examinations of medical students at kyushu university have been carried out on an annual basis since 1939. we investigated changes in body proportions using data on 813 medical students examined from 1961 to 1986. during these 26 years, standing height has increased by 4.69 cm, arm length by 2.58 cm, and sitting height by 0.79 cm. thus, the japanese have grown taller and their extremities are longer, yet the trunk has not chang ...20113189519

intratendinous aponeurotic fibroma.juvenile aponeurotic fibroma is a distinctive fibroblastic tumor usually found in young children. the tumor has a predilection for the palms and soles, although it can occur elsewhere, either superficially in subcutaneous tissues or in deeper musculofascial and paraskeletal tissues. in this case the tumor occurred in an adult within the substance of the flexor pollicis longus tendon, a location not previously reported in the literature. because of the unique location of the tumor, it was excised ...20113418060
origin and solution attributions of responsibility for wife abuse: effects of outcome severity, prior history, and sex of subject.the purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of sex differences and seriousness of the abuse situation on observers' attributions of responsibility for origin and solution to both partners in a couple. male and female undergraduate students (n = 354) read a vignette about a wife abuse incident. the results supported the victim activation hypothesis, with wives being held more responsible for the solution than for the origin of the problem. in contrast, husbands were held more res ...20113154154
