[nonocclusive ischemic enteropathy--a rare cause of ileus].the cause for a nonocclusive ischemic enteropathy seems to be a low cardiac output syndrome. there are often signs of a paralytic intestinal obstruction. parameters of the blood chemistry offer no conclusive data. the angiogram of the mesenteric vessels demonstrates extensive arterial vasoconstriction as well as an obstructed venous outflow. experimental findings disclose that this venous obstruction may be a result of an ischemic contracture in the course of a low flow state. this rigor initiat ...20133840557
heat shock elicits production of sexual inducer in volvox.in the green alga volvox carteri, heat shock had an unusual and adaptive effect mediated by induced production of a well-defined effector molecule. females of this species normally reproduce asexually in the absence of a potent sexual inducer produced by mature sexual males, but they generated egg-bearing sexual daughters after a brief exposure to elevated temperatures. this response involved an "autoinduction" of sexuality, in which heat-shocked somatic cells made and released the sexual induce ...20133941891
diagnostic and curative value of uterine curettage.one hundred and eighty-one consecutive patients admitted for curettage because of irregular uterine bleeding were classified preoperatively as having postmenopausal bleeding, intermenstrual bleeding, menorrhagia, or metrorrhagia. they were followed up at 3 and 9 months after curettage with regard to diagnosis and cure. fifty-seven per cent were cured; the lowest curative effect was found in patients suffering from menorrhagia. an etiological diagnosis was made in 90 patients; in the menorrhagia ...20133811841
