| epidemic mechanisms of type a influenza. | the antigenic varieties of influenza a virus isolated from 1968 to 1976 in a surveillance of a small, rather remote population were similar to those from england and wales as a whole, despite frequent antigenic changes during the period. household studies in the first two h3n2 influenza a epidemics found low attack rates within households, a high proportion (70%) of affected households with only one case of influenza, similar distributions of affected households in the two epidemics by the numbe ... | 1979 | 458138 |

| skeletal concentrations of lead in ancient peruvians. | the level of biologic lead (expressed as the ratio of atomic lead to atomic calcium) in bones of peruvians buried 1600 years ago was found to be 3 x 10(-8), as compared to 2100 to 3500 x 10(-8) in the bones of present-day residents of england and the united states. the ratio of barium to calcium was 2 to 3 x 10(-6) in bones of ancient peruvians and present-day americans. barium and lead have similar morphologic distributions in organisms, so this discrepancy for lead must result from overexposur ... | 1979 | 372802 |

(he uses "mind" and "soul" as equivalent terms.) the healing of the body requires study of the body, and the ineffectiveness of physicians is due to their failure in this respect rather than to the body's complexity. to ... | 1978 | 353452 |

| aconitase polymorphism in man. | 1. an electrophoretic method is described which resolves two groups of aconitase isozymes in human tissues, one group corresponding to the mitochondrial and the other to the soluble enzyme. this method has been used to screen human populations for electrophoretic variation. 2. variant phenotypes of both the mitochondrial and the soluble aconitase are described, and family studies and sib-pair data demonstrate that the variation is genetically determined. 3. the variant isozyme patterns are accou ... | 1975 | 1052766 |
| a method of measuring the temporal/distance factors of gait. | there exist many clinical situations where it is desirable to have some measure of a patient's ability to walk. the complex nature of human locomotion is reflected by the number of parameters that have been measured in previous studies of gait analysis. the temporal/distance factors of gait have been found to be extremely useful as a measure of a person's functional mobility. this paper describes a system which has been developed to measure these parameters of gait. | 1976 | 1016677 |
| ill defined neurological diseases of possible viral origin. | any approach towards elucidating the aetiology of an ill defined disease such as 'epidemic neuromyasthenia' has to be a comprehensive and wide-ranging one. although viruses must be strong candidates, by reason of their ubiquity, this need not necessarily be the case and we have recently seen the onset of legionnaires' disease as a new entity caused by a bacterium. we do not always recognize that a particular virus may affect the entire community and that the patient seen in hospital may represen ... | 1978 | 746022 |
