Ring chromosomes have now been observed in all except one group of the human karyotype, though, as yet, a syndrome has not been recognized which is characterized by the presence of a ring. Ring chromosomes have been observed in group A (Gordon and Cooke, 1964), in group B (Rohde and Tompkins, 1965), in group C (Lindsten and Tillinger, 1962; Turner et al., 1962; Luers, Struck, and Nevinny-Sticke...

SINCE the occurrence of the thalidomide tragedy in man, fairly extensive animal research has been done on the rat (King & Kendrick, 1962; Bignami et al, 1962; Klein Obbink & Dalderup, 1963; McColl et al, 1963; Moore et al, 1964), mouse (Giroud et al, 1962; Woollam, 1962; DiPaolo, 1963), rabbit (Felisati, 1962; Somers, 1962; Spencer, 1962), monkey (Lucey & Behrman, 1963), chicken (Kemper, 1962; ...

I Some effects of inelastic channels on elastic partial wave amplitudes are discussed. A Lmvinson's <heorem fo: both the real part of the phase shift and the total phase of thz ela;+ic aml;lituie is derived. The CDD singularities required to make the elastic amplitude calculated by single channel inelastic N/D equations agree with the many channel calculation without CDD singuiarities are fully...

In several important ways Charles Webster's three books about the National Health Service resemble Wagner's music drama Der Ring des Nibelungen. Both achievements are almost uncritizable monuments to an individual; both deal with great and ever-present themes; both show the rise or (usually) fall of major figures; and, to be flippant, both have inevitable longeurs (one counterpart to the endles...

BACKGROUND Inspectors from the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) have been collecting industrial hygiene samples since 1972 to verify compliance with Permissible Exposure Limits. Starting in 1979, these measurements were computerized into the Integrated Management Information System (IMIS). In 2010, a dataset of over 1 million personal sample results analysed at OSHA's cen...

Nitrogen mustard (mustine hydrochloride) has been used in the treatment of lung cancer for 20 years. Lynch, Ware, and Gaensler (1950), Kent and Reh (1950), Levine and Weisberger (1955), Hatch, Bradford, and Ochsner (1956), and Bass (1960) have described their experience with this cytotoxic agent and have reported symptomatic improvement in many patients, but little or no prolongation of life. S...

A longitudinal perspective was employed to test the hypothesis that there is an increased risk of hospitalization among Antarctic winter-over personnel during the first year subsequent to this duty. Subjects were 327 enlisted Navy men who wintered-over between 1963 and 1974 and a control group of 2,396 enlisted men who volunteered and were accepted for winter-over duty but who did not winter-ov...

Fifteen patients with Laennec's cirrhosis underwent orthotopic liver transplantation between 1963 and the end of 1979. The first eight patients died perioperatively or within two months, but four of the next seven patients had long survival; three are still alive after 11 to 14 years. After the introduction of cyclosporine therapy, 41 more patients with alcoholic cirrhosis were treated with liv...
