detection of nonrandom clustering of colonies in agar culture.we report a quantitative method for the detection of clustering in agar cultures. a statistical model was constructed on the assumption that colony formation by a cell in agar culture was independent of its spatial relationship to other cells in the culture. deviation from this model was then tested by a chi-squared test of the actual observations compared with values obtained from the model. this method provides a technique that will identify interactions between cells of like or unlike type. u ...20134029296

[reconstructive plastic surgery of the humeral condyles following removal of endoprostheses of the elbow versus arthrodesis].the condyles of the elbow are of utmost importance for the stability of this joint. this is particularly evident in cases where elbow prostheses had to be removed because of loosening or infection and where the condyles had been deliberately resected at the primary operation. in order to obtain a functional elbow with sufficient stability and mobility after removal of the prostheses, we can reconstruct the condyles by means of a large autologous bone graft, which we take from the midpart of the ...20133658417
hemodynamic effects of pirmenol, a new antiarrhythmic agent, assessed noninvasively.the cardiovascular effects of a new antiarrhythmic class i agent, pirmenol, were assessed noninvasively in 10 patients without heart failure. infusion of 100 mg pirmenol was given over 30 min following baseline m-mode echocardiography, cuff blood pressure and systolic time interval measurements. the measurements were repeated after the infusion, and 15 and 60 min later. heart rate increased by 14.7% (p less than 0.01). significant increases were also noted in afterload parameters, mean arterial ...20133943931

[mixed fractures of the posterior wall of the acetabulum. value of x-ray computed tomography].the authors have studied three cases of fracture of the posterior wall of the acetabulum in which one fragment was separated and another was impacted. the nature of the lesions were not able to be appreciated on standard radiographs but was visualised by means of tomodensitometric studies. the patients were treated surgically to obtain an accurate reconstruction of the articular surface. the importance of tomodensitometry in the diagnosis of such lesions is stressed.20133749555
the long-term effects of a token economy on safety performance in open-pit mining.a token economy that used trading stamps as tokens was instituted at two dangerous open-pit mines. employees earned stamps for working without lost-time injuries, for being in work groups in which all other workers had no lost-time injuries, for not being involved in equipment-damaging accidents, for making adopted safety suggestions, and for unusual behavior which prevented an injury or accident. they lost stamp awards if they or other workers in their group were injured, caused equipment damag ...20133667473
improving the donor site of the radial forearm flap.since its introduction (yang et al., 1981; song et al., 1982), the radial forearm flap has proved to be one of the safest and most versatile free flaps. however, the donor defect is significant and an otherwise excellent result is often impaired by a poor graft take over the exposed flexor carpi radialis tendon, even when great care has been taken to preserve its paratenon. this results in delayed healing, with frequent dressing changes, and often produces an area that is later prone to breakdow ...20134052711
atp-dependent degradation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase in permeabilized cells.a system for the assay of 3-hydroxy-3-methyglutaryl (hmg) coenzyme a (coa) reductase in digitonin-permeabilized chinese hamster ovary cells is described. under these conditions, hmg-coa reductase remained intact and associated with the endoplasmic reticulum, and values for km (hmg-coa), ki (mevinolin), and active/total activity were similar to those seen in sonicated cell preparations. however, the mechanism by which this rapidly turned over (half-life approximately 2 h) enzyme is degraded was d ...20133584146

toward the elimination of guessing bias in landolt acuity testing.a subjective guessing bias has been claimed to be present in association with visual acuity testing using the classic circular landolt ring. a semiautomated visual test system has been described previously which uses an angular version of the broken ring. evidence is presented here which indicates that this version of the test object overcomes the problem of guessing bias and thus might prove to be not only a preferred "standard" or reference optotype but also an acceptable clinical optotype in ...20133777112
