[therapeutic strategy in adrenal tumor].	the therapeutic strategy to be adopted when confronted with an adrenal tumor is schematically presented for the various situations which may occur: --pheochromocytomas, where the principal problems are the blood pressure and the localization and volume of the tumors(s); --conn's syndrome, where a bilateral tumor should not be missed; --cushing's syndrome, where bilateral total adrenalectomy via a posterior approach would seem to be the treatment of choice; --non secreting and secreting adrenal t ...	2009	2794547

chronic subdural haematoma after spinal anaesthesia. case report.	in this study an interesting and not frequent case of non-traumatic chronic subdural haematoma after spinal anaesthesia is reported. after a careful review of the cases described in the literature, the authors discussed the physiopathological mechanisms, emphasizing how the break of the bridge veins or of the subarachnoid granulations, the cerebral atrophy and the dehydration are factors which facilitate the appearance of this neurological complication. they suggest that a suitable post-operativ ...	2009	4093803

linkage analysis under "random" and "genetic" reduced penetrance.	we examined whether the results of linkage analysis are affected by the reasons for so-called "reduced penetrance". we simulated linkage data with random reduced penetrance and contrasted that with data that were simulated under inheritance controlled by two loci interacting epistatically. for the two-locus disease models, one of those loci was linked to the marker. all data, irrespective of how the data were simulated, were analyzed under the assumption of a single-locus genetic model with rand ...	2009	2786485
the sesamoids of the metacarpo-phalangeal joint of the thumb: an anatomical and clinical study.	two unusual cases of injury to the sesamoids of the m.p. joint of the thumb are described. an anatomical dissection of the m.p. volar plate region, including the sesamoids, was undertaken to delineate the details of the sesamoids' relationship to the m.p. joint, flexor tendon, flexor tendon sheath and capsule of the joint. histological studies were carried out to demonstrate a tendinous extension of the muscles that attach to the sesamoids.	2009	2746129

management of imperforate hymen with the carbon dioxide laser.	a method for the management of imperforate hymen using carbon dioxide laser is described. in four patients presenting with imperforate hymen, the hymen was excised by co2 laser under local anesthesia. no bleeding or wound infection occurred, and healing was prompt and satisfactory. two out of four patients became sexually active and experienced no introital dyspareunia. we conclude that the co2 laser may be an alternative method of treatment for this rare congenital abnormality.	2009	2748065
personality risk factors for cocaine abuse.	to evaluate the role of personality in cocaine abuse, 59 adults meeting dsm-iii criteria for cocaine abuse were compared to similar-aged non-cocaine alcohol abusers and community controls on a dsm-iii measure of personality. cocaine abusers were more likely than non-cocaine alcohol abusers to display narcissistic personality traits (odds ratio 6.86, 95% ci = 4.52, 15.60).

[cervico-mediastinal goiter].	the descent of a cervical goiter below the plain of the thoracic inlet to become substernal in location, is fairly rare, but not exceptional, with an incidence, derived from several large series of operated patients, ranging from 1.7% to 13.1%. the importance of this particular location of the goiter is chiefly due to the fact that the thyroid is growing in a limited space with many surrounding structures, that unavoidably, sooner or later, will be compressed or strained. this provokes respirato ...	2009	2747985
using spreadsheet languages to understand sequence analysis algorithms.	spreadsheet languages have gained enormous popularity for simple numerical computations, but their power in non-numerical contexts has not been widely recognized. this paper presents spreadsheet implementations of several familiar sequence analysis tools. in many cases, spreadsheet notation clarifies the underlying algorithm, facilitating understanding of existing algorithms and promoting spontaneous experimentation. spreadsheets also reveal, through their visible parallelism, opportunities for ...	2009	3453231

interplay of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions in biopolymer chromatography. effect of salts on the retention of proteins.	the effect of salt on the retention behavior of proteins in electrostatic and hydrophobic interaction chromatography is described by a three-parameter equation, log k' = a - b log ms + cms, where k' is the retention factor and ms is the molality of the salt in the eluent. parameter b, termed the electrostatic interaction parameter, depends on the characteristic charge of the protein and the salt counterion and governs the change of retention with the salt concentration in ion-exchange chromatogr ...	2009	2768374
growth factors and the regulation of pre- and postnatal growth.	peptide growth factors represent a largely paracrine level of intercellular communication that is basic to the process of life. growth factors are present in the ovum and are amongst the first products expressed by the embryonic genome. they function as both signals and progression factors for embryonic tissue growth, induction, differentiation, maturation and function. while a widespread tissue expression is demonstrable during fetal development, and in certain postnatal tissues such as the epi ...	2009	2698147

results of pancreatoduodenectomy for carcinoma of the head of the pancreas.	seventy-eight patients underwent either pancreatoduodenectomy (88%) or total pancreatectomy (12%) for carcinoma of the head of the pancreas. the operative mortality decreased from 27% in 1968-1977 to 3% in 1978-1987. there was no operative mortality during the last 5-year period 1983-1987. mortality (9% vs 7%) and morbidity (57% vs 42%) were similar in patients aged greater than or equal to 70 and less than 70 years. the pylorus-preserving technique did not increase mortality or operative blood ...	2009	2613164
[animal welfare aspects of animal slaughter].	for many years animal welfare aspects of slaughtering were not discussed. but in the last ten years the research has much increased in this field. the new knowledges will be taken in account in national and european legislation. the question if ritual slaughtering without pre-slaughter stunning has to be allowed, was answered by the amendment of the animal welfare act: this form of slaughtering is now only allowed in the context of constitutional guaranteed religious liberty.	2009	2651083
car radiator burns: a report on 72 cases.	seventy-two cases of car radiator burns (crb) were treated in the burns unit, hamad medical corporation, doha, qatar, over a 6-year period (1982-87). all the patients were males and most were between 20 and 40 years old. chest wall, face and right upper limb were the commonest sites involved. most of the patients suffered from relatively minor scalds. the scenario of the accidents as well as the topography of the burned areas were characteristic to this particular type of injury. the exceptional ...	2009	2765150
proinflammatory signal transduction pathway induced by shigella flexneri porins in caco-2 cells.	the recognition of bacterial components on the intestinal epithelial cells occurs through the toll-like receptors and is followed by the induction of an effective innate immune response. we analyzed receptor expression and signaling pathways involved in activation of human colon adenocarcinoma cells after stimulation with porins and lps of shigella flexneri. we also analyzed the expression and production of some cytokines, of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, of antimicrobial peptides human β-d ...	2009	24031417
molecular epidemiology of shigella spp strains isolated in two different metropolitam areas of southeast brazil.	shigella spp., the human pathogen responsible for shigellosis, is highly infectious even at low levels. the incidence rate of shigellosis varies with geographical distribution, location human development index, and age groups, being higher among children aged under 5 years. in brazil, a few works indicate that shigellosis cases are underestimated, with s. flexneri and s. sonnei strains being the major agents responsible for the shigellosis cases. the present study used pulsed field gel electroph ...	2009	24031415
