An anomalous phase transition with a marked rise in specific heat, the isobaric thermal expansion coefficient, and the compressibility coefficient at 62.5 degrees C for an equimolar mixture of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DPPE)…

NEUROTROPHIN-3 (NT3) or TrkC null mutant mice were examined for the presence of muscle spindles. Muscles of mastication, but not limbs, contained spindles in newborn and adolescent mutants. The intramuscular distribution and morphological properties…

To discover agents that might be useful in the treatment of cocaine abuse, we have chosen to re-explore a class of molecules that was first reported by Clarke et al. in 1973 and that was and shown to lack locomotor stimulatory activity in mice. These…

Based mainly on the simplicity of its calculation, the urea reduction ratio (URR) has been suggested as an alternative to urea kinetic modeling (Kt/V) as a measure of hemodialysis adequacy. However, recent studies have raised questions concerning the…

Although cholelithiasis is uncommon in children, its laparoscopic treatment has progressively become more popular among pediatric surgeons. This is due in part to the fact that compared with the open technique, laparoscopic treatment is less invasive…

An ectopic thyroid goiter was found in a 58-year-old woman who presented with abdominal and low back pain, diarrhea, and generalized weakness. Initial workup, including abdominal CT scan, revealed a mass extending from the duodenum to the porta…

The present study addresses the specificity of lyric osseous impact for distinguishing among metastatic cancer, tuberculosis, and fungal disease. Osseous impact is used in this manuscript as a convention to describe the macroscopic appearance of…

The present study examined whether measurement of hemoglobin-acetaldehyde (HbA1-AcH) using an improved methodology may be useful as a biological marker of alcohol abuse. Red blood cell hemolysates of 182 patients consecutively admitted to the drug…

BACKGROUND. Although many treatment modalities have been described for xanthelasma palpebrarum, no single technique has emerged as dominant. OBJECTIVES. Our purpose was to review the various therapeutic modalities for xanthelasma anti to assess the…

Career-Development Assessment and Counseling (C-DAC) systematically bridges career theory and practice. Integrating differential, developmental, and phenomenological methods, the C-DAC model uses a comprehensive career assessment battery to help…

Research to initially construct and evaluate the Decisional Process Inventory (DPI; Hartung, 1994) revealed its potential use for assessing progress and problems in career decision making (Hartung, 1995). Advancing this preliminary area of instrument…

Tamoxifen (10 pg/ml) was infused directly into superfused striatal tissue fragments of ovariectomized rats for a 50 min period. Immediately following the termination of tamoxifen there was a significant increase in dopamine output compared with…

The gene encoding cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A), the rate-limiting enzyme in bile acid synthesis, is transcriptionally regulated by bile acids and hormones. Previously, we have identified two bile acid response elements (BARE) in the…

Perforation from a solitary metastatic lesion of the small bowel is rare. We report a case of acute perforation with no evidence of metastatic disease within the abdomen. Resection of the small bowel was performed.
