| microbial flora of surface versus core tonsillar cultures in recurrent tonsillitis in children. | surface and 'core' tonsillar specimens were collected from 60 children, between 2 and 14 years of age, suffering from recurrent tonsillitis, in order to establish the reliability of surface tonsillar swabbing technique and to define the most frequently involved aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms. from the qualitative point of view, the same mixed aerobic and anaerobic flora were obtained in both samples thus demonstrating the reliability of the surface swabbing technique. from the quantitative ... | 1988 | 3397235 |

| cancer, stress and personality: a correlational investigation of life-events, repression-sensitization and locus of control. | this study investigated the hypothesis that stress-inducing life experiences and the personality factors of external locus of control and tendency to repress emotion are relevant in the aetiology of cancer. fifty cancer patients scored higher than 50 matched controls on a life-events scale (especially negative events), but were found to be lower on repression of emotion. there was no difference between groups on locus of control. | 2012 | 3401426 |
| the duration of local control of classic (non-aids-associated) kaposi's sarcoma by radiotherapy. | we report the short- and long-term responses to radiotherapy of 82 classic kaposi's sarcomas. doses were prescribed ab initio and no attempt was made to discontinue treatment as soon as shrinkage was observed, as has been recommended by others. more than 50% of the lesions regressed completely and nearly all underwent some regression. almost all recurrences were detected within 2 years of treatment and virtually all occurred in lesions that had not regressed completely within 2 weeks of radiothe ... | 2010 | 3403746 |
| autoregulated instability of beta-tubulin mrnas by recognition of the nascent amino terminus of beta-tubulin. | tubulin synthesis in animal cells is controlled by an autoregulatory mechanism that modulates the stability of polysome-bound tubulin messenger rnas. the beta-tubulin rnas are selectively targeted as substrates for destabilization not through the recognition of specific rna sequences, but rather through co-translational recognition of the amino-terminal beta-tubulin tetrapeptide after its emergence from the ribosome. this motif is likely to be used in other systems where rna degradation is coupl ... | 2010 | 3405308 |

| comparative studies on the central effects of the angiotensin ii analogue (sar1 azaval3 ile8) at ii. | the effects of the newly-synthesized at ii analogue (sar1 azaval3 ile8) at ii were investigated in comparison with the octapeptide at ii and the analogue saralazin (sar1 ala8) at ii, using intracerebroventricular administration, with respect to the following parameters: the level of biogenic monoamines (da, na and 5-ht) and the metabolites hva and 5-hiaa in mouse forebrain; the behaviour of the animals--cataleptogenic actions of mice, ptz convulsive--seizure threshold in mice, apomorphine stereo ... | 1988 | 3407412 |
| atypical invasive external otitis from aspergillus. | we report a rare case of invasive external otitis caused by aspergillosis in an elderly nondiabetic patient. amphotericin b therapy was curative. atypical features of the presentation delayed diagnosis. early use of tissue biopsy and culture to guide prompt initiation of therapy is recommended. the clinical spectrum and microbiology of invasive aspergillosis are also reviewed. | 1988 | 3408569 |

| [immunomodulating properties of khlotazol]. | a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent khlotazol administered to rats in doses of 40-80 mg/kg for 5 days stimulated synthesis of igm- and igg-antibodies to ram erythrocytes and increased the number of antibody-forming cells (afc) and rosette-forming cells (rfc) in the spleen. when the doses were increased to 160-320 mg/kg, the stimulating effect of the drug on the production of hemagglutinins retained but dose-dependent inhibition of the number of afc and rfc was found. when administered in a do ... | 1988 | 3410037 |
