VOLUME 4 NOVEMBER, 1944 NUMBER 11 The Dependence of the Genesis of Induced Skin Tumors on the Caloric Intake during Different Stages of Carcinogenesis* Albert Tannenbaum, M.D. (From the Department o/ Cancer Research, Michael Reese Hospital, Chicago I6, I1l.) (Received for publication June 28, 1944) In earlier investigations (11, 12) it has been shown that calorie-restricted diets inhibit the fo...

Many factors influence leadership, and no one leadership style fits all situations. To gain insights into one's leadership behavior and to develop the skills to change one's style, management researchers suggest application of transactional analysis. HEINZ WEIHRICH Heinz Weihrich, associate professor of management and organizational behavior at Arizona State University, writes frequently on man...

Background: Infections caused by dengue virus are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Factors that control transition from mild forms of disease such as dengue fever (DF) to more lifethreatening forms such as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) are poorly understood. Consequently, there are no reliable methods currently available for early triag...

A number of studies have been reported con cerning the effects of dietary protein on tumor in cidence and growth. These have been recently re viewed by Tannenbaum and Silverstone (11). More information, however, is needed with regard to the effects of the tumor on the nitrogen integri ty of the host animal under the various dietary regimes. Such a study on the nitrogen content of the various ti...

We manipulated two variables predicted by models of team performance to affect team processes and performance: team organization and task load. In one team organization the team leader served as a manager only, without responsibility for prosecuting hostile tracks. In the other organization the team leader served as a player-manager. Task load was established by varying the number of hostile tr...

Frontal plane ballistocardiograms obtained from 10 normal subjects were analyzed and compared with abnormal records obtained from patients with known cardiovascular disease. The normal vector loop is described, and the importance of the transverse ballistocardiogram is discussed. It is suggested that the orientation of the J loop may be related to the anatomic position of the heart. No such rel...

Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) is an integral part of the practice of Medicine and Family Medicine. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines IPC as occurring when “multiple health workers from different professional backgrounds work together with patients, families, carers and communities to deliver the highest quality of care” (WHO, 2010). To provide effective, patient-centered care,...

1. The objective of this investigation was to test the influence of mammary cancer tissue extract on the induction of various tumors by urethan. Three strains of female mice, Balb/c, Zb and Db, were used in this experiment. 2. It was found that urethan was a multipotential carcinogen in the induction of (a) lung tumor, ovarian hemorrhagic cyst, and hemorrhagic lesions in various tissue in Balb/...

Some published factor analyses have suggested that attitude importance and certainty are distinct psychological constructs, but other factor analytic investigations have suggested they are largely redundant reflections of a more general underlying construct. This latter sort of finding has led investigators to average measures of importance and certainty together into a composite index and then...
