mesothelioma of the atrioventricular node.a patient with mobitz type 2 heart block caused by a mesothelioma of the atrioventricular node died of a subarachnoid haemorrhage at the age of 33 two years after implantation of a permanent pacemaker. mesothelioma of the atrioventricular node is rare, and reported cases have all been diagnosed post mortem. mesothelioma of the atrioventricular node should be considered in the differential diagnosis of heart block in children or young adults. this is the first case to be reported in japan.20133986062
formation of acetylcholine receptor clusters at neuromuscular junction in xenopus cultures.the formation of acetylcholine receptor (achr) clusters at the neuromuscular junction was investigated by observing the sequential changes in achr cluster distribution on cultured xenopus muscle cells. achrs were labeled with tetramethylrhodamine-conjugated alpha-bungarotoxin (tmr-alpha bt). before innervation achrs were distributed over the entire surface of muscle cells with occasional spots of high density (hot spots). when the nerve contacted the muscle cell, the large existing hot spots dis ...20143987959
teratogenic potential of inhaled dichlorobenzenes in rats and rabbits.orthodichlorobenzene (odcb) and paradichlorobenzene (pdcb) were evaluated for teratogenic potential in rats (odcb only) and rabbits. groups of bred rats and inseminated rabbits were exposed to 0, 100, 200, or 400 ppm of odcb; groups of inseminated rabbits were exposed to 0, 100, 300, or 800 ppm of pdcb. animals were exposed for 6 hr/day on days 6 through 15 (rats) or 6 through 18 (rabbits) of gestation. maternal toxicity, as evidenced by a significant decrease in body weight gain, was observed i ...19853987993

serum antibody reactive with predominant organisms in the subgingival flora of young adults with generalized severe periodontitis.in the present study we sought to determine whether serum antibody was present against microorganisms which predominate in the subgingival flora of young adults with generalized severe periodontitis (sp). subjects with sp were often seropositive for eubacterium brachy, fusobacterium nucleatum e3c22, and peptostreptococcus micros, whereas subjects with juvenile periodontitis (jp) and subjects with healthy periodontium (hp) were not. both sp and jp subjects were more frequently seropositive for ba ...19853988337
microbial ecology of plaque in rats with naturally occurring gingivitis.the microbial ecology of adherent plaque was investigated in relation to the pathological findings of gingivitis in plaque-susceptible rats. plaque developed in the gingiva of the lower incisor in plaque-susceptible rats, but not in plaque-resistant rats, after they were fed a commercial powder diet. with increase in plaque volume, the total counts of bacteria increased 10(9) to 10(11)/g. in the first 3 months, bacteroides species increased and became the predominant population. streptococcus sp ...19853988345
sexual development in beef bulls following zeranol implants.two trials were conducted to study the effect of zeranol implants on growth and sexual development of bull calves. trial 1 compared the effects of implanting with 72 mg of zeranol at 48 d of age (branding), at 215 d of age, or at both times with nonimplanted control bulls. implanting at branding resulted in decreased scrotal circumference, testicle weight and proportion of bulls that could produce an ejaculate at 14 mo of age (p less than .01). implanting at 215 d of age had no effect on any of ...19853988627
relationship of rumen fluid dilution rate to rumen fermentation and dietary characteristics of beef steers.data from seven beef steer trials were compiled and regression analyses used to evaluate relationships among molar proportions of acetate (ac), propionate (pr) and butyrate (bu), total concentration of volatile fatty acids (vfa), rumen ammonia (nh3), rumen ph, rumen fluid dilution rate (fdr), rumen fluid volume (fvol), body weight (wt), dry matter intake (dmi) and dietary concentration and intake of crude protein (cp and cpi), acid detergent fiber (adf and adfi), ash (ash and ashi) and metaboliz ...19853988654
