| [perichordal necroses. contribution to the understanding of the spinal column morphogenesis]. | in 12--15 days old rat embryos and 12 days old mouse embryos vitally stained by acridin orange, a perichordal necrosis appears, showing metameric intensifications at the level of the dense sclerotomites. similar aspects were detected in serially sectioned rabbit and human embryos (6--7 mm c.r. length). the authors correlate the necrotic zones mentioned with the inductive functions of the notochord. | 1978 | 86154 |
| [dynamics of sleep and the waking state after labyrinthine deafferentation]. | the author carried out studies on awake state and sleep (slow and paradoxal) after lybyrinth deafferentation. the states were evaluated by behavior, eeg, myogram and eye movements. the labyrinth defferentation was performed in combination (chemical and mechanical). bilateral labyrinth deafferentation reduced the duration of the awake state from 30% to 17%, p less than 0.001. the slow sleep was increased at the same time but there was no statistical significance. the parodoxal sleep was due both ... | 1976 | 179775 |
| radiometric detection of haemophilus in simulated blood cultures. | the radiometric detection of various haemophilus species was studied in simulated blood cultures and in blood culture media without added blood, but supplemented with nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (nad) or hemin, or both. haemophilus aphrophilus was the only species studied that was radiometrically detectable without added blood or nad. all other species studied (haemophilus influenzae, haemophilus parainfluenzae, haemophilus haemolyticus, and haemophilus parahaemolyticus) required either ad ... | 1979 | 218444 |

| the flavonoid silymarin increases the permeability of rat bone marrow cells to (3h)-uridine. | the pretreatment of rats with the flavonoid silymarin increases the in vitro uptake of (3h)-uridine to bone marrow cell rna. this stimulatory effect is unrelated to an increase in the activity of cellular polymerases. it is proposed that the flavonoid enhances the permeability of the cell to (3h)-uridine acting at the membrane level. | 1988 | 3187195 |

| changes in the incidence of fracture of the upper end of the humerus during a 30-year period. a study of 2125 fractures. | the incidence of fracture of the upper end of the humerus by age group and sex was studied for a 32-year period from 1950 to 1982. the following numbers of humeral fractures occurred: 1950-1954, 411 fractures; 1961-1964, 552 fractures; 1971-1973, 639 fractures; and 1981-1982, 523 fractures. there was a progressive increase in the age-related incidence in older persons, especially in women. there was a higher incidence of fractures classified as severe in the 1980s compared with the 1950s. | 2012 | 3370872 |
| a randomized phase iii trial of cisplatinum, methotrexate, cisplatinum + methotrexate, and cisplatinum + 5-fluoro-uracil in end-stage head and neck cancer. | in a previous phase iii trial of chemotherapy for patients with end-stage squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck we have shown that bleomycin shortened the survival period, compared with untreated controls. the survival of patients treated with cisplatinum and bleomycin did not differ significantly from untreated patients, but cisplatinum significantly prolonged survival. a further similar trial is reported here, the four treatment arms were methotrexate alone, cisplatinum alone, cisplatin ... | 2012 | 3303823 |

| bupivacaine disposition in mother, fetus, and neonate after spinal anesthesia for cesarean section. | uptake of bupivacaine from the subarachnoid space and its placental transfer were measured in six patients undergoing elective cesarean section. maternal plasma levels (59 +/- 32 ng/ml) were only about 5% of those found in a comparable previous study of epidural anesthesia. mean plasma umbilical venous bupivacaine levels (20.2 +/- 21 ng/ml) were 7% of those found after epidural anesthesia. mean umbilical venous/maternal venous bupivacaine ratios were 0.34 +/- 0.12 and mean umbilical arterial/umb ... | 2013 | 3578847 |
| diabetes-related changes in brain beta adrenoreceptors in rats as assessed by quantitative autoradiography: relationship to hypothalamic norepinephrine metabolism and pituitary-gonadal hormone secretion. | streptozotocin (stz)-induced diabetes produced significant and selective alterations in brain beta adrenoreceptor subtypes, norepinephrine (ne) metabolism and pituitary-testicular hormone in male rats. the densities of beta-1 but not beta-2 adrenoreceptors were increased in hypothalamus (anterior and lateral nuclei), thalamus (ventral posterior nucleus) and amygdala (basolateral nucleus) of the stz diabetic rats. in contrast, a decrease in the rate of metabolism of ne (estimated by the concentra ... | 1990 | 2168485 |

| veralipride: alternative antidopaminergic treatment for menopausal symptoms. | the vasomotor hot flushes and increased perspiration symptomatic of the menopausal period reflect the adaptation of the body to the lowering of its preset basal temperature resulting from the interference of various central neurotransmitters of suprahypothalamohypophyseal origin. the present double-blind study was conducted to test the efficacy of veralipride, a synthetic antidopaminergic molecule, in eliminating the symptoms of menopause in 50 patients. results indicated a total elimination of ... | 2010 | 2967034 |

| a genetic study of plasma dopamine beta-hydroxylase in affective disorder. | plasma dbh activity was studied in patients with affective illness (unipolar or bipolar) and in their families. we found diagnosis, mood state or lithium treatment did not modify plasma dbh activity. in family studies we found same-sex siblings to show significant correlations for plasma dbh activity regardless of diagnosis. monozygotic twins had almost identical dbh activities; 4 pairs of monozygotic twins discordant for affective illness were concordant for dhb activity. the heritability estim ... | 2005 | 1177948 |
| cleavage lines of the oral mucosa in japanese cadavers. | cleavage lines were experimentally reproduced in the oral mucosa of japanese cadavers. they were investigated macroscopically and histologically. the reproduced cleavage lines showed little directional variation by sex or age. from the histological findings, the mucosal cleavage lines were interpreted to represent cleavage split along the direction of connective tissue fibres in the lamina propria. | 2011 | 3165386 |

| rlsq: t1, t2, and rho calculations, combining ratios and least squares. | a method is proposed for calculating images of spin density rho and relaxation times t1, t2 from mr imaging sequences with the following characteristics: it avoids nonlinear iterative techniques and is consequently sufficiently fast to allow calculation of rho, t1, and t2 on a pixel by pixel basis routinely; it uses all available data simultaneously in an approximately optimal fashion. the method is applied to the combined se + ir sequence but can be used for other acquisition schemes as well. | 2012 | 3437812 |
