The coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of a typical concrete-paving mixtures made with six different types of coarse aggregates, obtained from fifteen different sources in Wisconsin, was determined. These aggregates belonged to the basic class of glacial gravel, quartzite, granite, diabase, basalt, and dolomite. A total of fifteen different concrete mixtures were used in this study. Triplic...

Lyme disease is sometimes part of the differential diagnosis for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Herein we report on 414 individuals with ALS at the Massachusetts General Hospital who underwent laboratory testing for Lyme disease. Twenty-four (5.8%) were seropositive, but only 4 (0.97%) had confirmed past immunoreactive infection. Two of these patients received ceftriaxone for 1 month with...
