hepatomas have demonstrated that a spectrum of such tumors exists with varying degrees of change from the parent hepatocyte (26—30). Such hepatocarcinomas as the Morris 5123 (18) and Reuber H-35 (34), for instance, resemble the parent tissue to a marked degree both morphologically and biochemically (27), and thus fall in the category termed “minimaldeviation hepatomas― by Potter (31). On ...

The majority of studies into visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) either use complex motion scenarios or are limited to single-axis motion. This study compared VIMS during singleand dual-axis motion. Twelve participants were exposed to (i) oscillating roll motion, (ii) linear motion in the anterior-posterior axis, and (iii) spiral motion, i.e. the summed direction of both of these flow vecto...

OBJECTIVE Considering that epidemiological studies show that suicide rates in many countries are highest in the spring when vitamin D status is lowest, and that low vitamin D status can affect brain function, we sought to evaluate if a low level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] could be a predisposing factor for suicide. METHOD We conducted a prospective, nested, case-control study using seru...

The most widely used indicator of vitamin D status is the measurement of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in either serum or plasma. Several studies have reported discrepancies between the results of assays used to measure 25(OH)D, however, which calls into question the ability of 25(OH)D assays to reflect accurately the vitamin D status of individuals. The National Institute of Standards and Tech...

CONCLUSION: MIDAS is suboptimal to describe disability in our patients due to a mean preoperative score of 102, as severe disability is defined as 21+. PSEQ successfully demonstrates extent of disability in this patient population and puts migraine surgery in perspective to other known pain treatments. It further evaluates functional outcome, rather than just improvement in symptoms. This signi...

Although the U.S. National Archives maintain the official audio recordings, for this paper we accessed the audio files in .mp3 format via the Oyez Project at the Chicago-Kent College of Law, which is a public repository that aims “to be a complete and authoritative source for all audio recorded in the Court since the installation of a recording system in October 1955.” To get additional informa...
