IMMUNO-TRANSFUSION.

Four Cases of Immuno-Transfusion with remarks on the Method.

Immuno-engineering

In this position paper, we outline a vision for a new type of engineering: immuno-engineering, that can be used for the development of biologically grounded and theoretically understood Artificial Immune Systems (AIS). We argue that, like many bio-inspired paradigms, AIS have drifted somewhat away from the source of inspiration. We also argue that through an interdisciplinary approach, it is po...

The immuno-neuroendocrine interface

The CNS and the various endocrine organs are linked in a dynamic manner through networks of reciprocal interactions that allow for both long-term adaptation and short-term shifts in environmental conditions. These regulatory systems embrace the hypothalamus, the pituitary gland, and any of several target glands, including the adrenal gland and the thyroid. Because the anterior pituitary gland s...

Immuno-Electrophoretic Analysis

One facet of the organization of surgeons during World War II was commented upon by almost every author. Prior to the entry of the United States into World War II, it had been decided by written agreement between the Office of the Surgeon General and university medical schools that the surgical faculties of the schools would agree to staff specific hospitals in the event of war. The Surgeon Gen...

Immuno - incompetent Patients *

An aggressive surgical approach was used in the diagnosis and treatment of seven immuno-incompetent padents who presented with focal thoracic mass lesions. In five of the seven patients, minor diagnostic procedures had failed to provide a diagnosis. All seven patients were subjected to exploratory thoracotomy with resection and/or drainage of the involved area. Two patients had parenchyinal mas...
