| examination of the role of cigarette smoke in lung carcinogenesis using multistage models. | the widely used multistage model of armitage and doll is fit to the british physician lung cancer data of doll and hill under the assumption that cigarette smoke induces the initial and penultimate changes. it is shown that the best fit of this model in continuing smokers gives predictions not in accordance with incidence in ex-smokers and dose-response. a better global fit can be obtained by increasing the number of stages, but this de-emphasizes initiation and is inconsistent with the rise of ... | 2012 | 3398067 |
| thrombocytosis elevates serum potassium. | spurious elevation of the serum potassium can be seen if the platelet count exceeds 1,000 x 10(9)/l in patients with myeloproliferative disease. to see if serum potassium is increased at more modest elevations of the platelet count we studied these parameters in 283 controls and 161 patients with reactive thrombocytosis. the incidence of hyperkalemia was 34% in patients with over 500 x 10(9) platelets/l compared with 9% if the platelet count was below 250 x 10(9)/l. over this range there was a s ... | 2012 | 3400632 |

| fetal epithelial binding of 1,2-dibromoethane in mice. | whole-body autoradiography and computer-assisted image analysis were used to study the tissue binding of the volatile carcinogenic pesticide 1,2-dibromo[14c]ethane (dbe) in c57bl mouse fetuses. autoradiograms obtained from pregnant mice in late gestation (day 16-17), showed a high level of non-volatile metabolites in the epithelia of the fetal upper alimentary tract and respiratory tract. as determined by image analysis, the concentration of non-extractable (presumably covalently bound) metaboli ... | 1986 | 3530523 |
| comparison of dna probes and the sereny test for identification of invasive shigella and escherichia coli strains. | forty-two shigella and 29 escherichia coli strains were screened for invasiveness in the sereny test and for hybridization with two recently described dna probes for the invasiveness plasmid. both probes produced identical results. all sereny-positive strains hybridized with both dna probes. three sereny-negative strains also hybridized with the probes, suggesting that there are strains containing the invasiveness plasmid that are not pathogenic in animal models. | 1986 | 3531233 |

| morphologic evaluation of the effects of shiga toxin and e coli shiga-like toxin on the rabbit intestine. | the effects of a shiga toxin derived from shigella dysenteriae type 1, strain 60r, and a shiga-like toxin from the enterohemorrhagic escherichia coli o157:h7, strain 933, were studied in the in vivo rabbit ileal loop model. the effects of both toxins were similar and resulted in severe villus blunting by 18-24 hours after exposure. with both toxins, a dose effect was noted; and the lesions, first detected at 2 hours after inoculation, became more severe over time. both toxins appeared to act dir ... | 1986 | 3535529 |
| shigella dysenteriae type 1 enterocolitis. | shigella dysenteriae type 1 is much more virulent than shigella flexneri and sonnei which are endemic in australia. this report describes a 22 year old woman who acquired shigella dysenteriae type 1 whilst travelling in india. during the course of her illness, she developed severe enterocolitis for which a subtotal colectomy was performed. the illness resembled fulminant ulcerative colitis and its infectious nature was difficult to establish because several fecal cultures failed to grow the path ... | 1986 | 3535768 |
| double-blind controlled trial to compare anti-inflammatory effects of tolmetin 2%, prednisolone 0.5%, and placebo in post-cataract extraction eyes. | this paper compares the efficacy of tolmetin, prednisolone, and placebo (vehicle only) in controlling post-cataract extraction inflammation in a double-blind trial involving 120 patients. seventeen patients were excluded from analysis. the results of the 103 patients analysed showed that 94% of the prednisolone treated group was judged to have been successfully treated as compared with 53% of the tolmetin treated group and 46% of the vehicle treated group. the differences between the prednisolon ... | 2012 | 3535872 |

| production of shiga toxin and other cytotoxins by serogroups of shigella. | we measured the cytotoxic activity of 119 strains of shigella by using a quantitative [3h]thymidine-labeled hela cell assay. we assayed 13 strains of shigella dysenteriae 1; 18 strains of s. dysenteriae types 2 and 3; and 88 strains of shigella sonnei, shigella flexneri, and shigella boydii. strains of s. dysenteriae 1 demonstrated high levels of cytotoxicity (geometric mean, 10(5.04) cd50/mg of protein; range, 10(3.95)-10(6.10). cytotoxic activities of the non-type 1 strains of s. dysenteriae a ... | 1986 | 3537154 |
| enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect shiga toxin of shigella dysenteriae and related toxins. | a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa) was developed for detection of shiga toxin. four species of shigella, escherichia coli, and vibro parahaemolyticus were tested for production of shiga or shiga-like toxin by elisa and vero cell bioassay. in the elisa, most strains of s. dysenteriae and some strains of e. coli isolated from traveler's diarrhea were positive. these elisa-positive strains were positive by vero cell bioassay without exception. some e. coli strains and most v. para ... | 1987 | 3539985 |
| [bacteriological study of shigellosis in the lake kivu area (central africa). developments in the last 15 years (1968-1983)]. | 1913 shigella strains were isolated from 1968 to 1983 in lake kivu area (central africa). distribution and evolution of serotypes, biotypes and antibiotypes were studied. the majority of serotypes and biotypes were stable. however, few of these strains showed variations, among them shigella dysenteriae serotype 1, causing epidemic dysenteriae since 1981. epidemiologic survey of shigellosis in kivu seems to be rather underdeveloped (4 bacteriology laboratories for an area of 10 million inhabitant ... | 1986 | 3542256 |
| ionic requirements for entry of shiga toxin from shigella dysenteriae 1 into cells. | the ionic requirements for entry of shiga toxin into cells were examined by measuring inhibition of protein synthesis after short-term incubations with toxin. the sensitivity of vero cells and hela cells to shiga toxin was strongly dependent on the divalent cation present. vero cells were most sensitive in the presence of cacl2 and srcl2, whereas hela cells were equally sensitive in the presence of mgcl2, srcl2, and cacl2. both cell lines were protected by bacl2, cocl2, and mncl2. inhibitors of ... | 1987 | 3542829 |
