We have recently been involved in a difficult case of a young person who remained in a local emergency department bed for over 90 hours while several specialty registrar (StR) doctors spent the majority of their on-call time attempting, and failing, to find an appropriate available bed. Over the course of this time, at least 40 units were contacted, numerous referral letters faxed and the case ...

velopment is initiated by transcriptional upregulation of Ivelisse Sánchez and Junying Yuan* Egl-1, another BH3-only member of the BCL-2 family Department of Cell Biology that acts by inhibiting Ced-9, an antiapoptotic member Harvard Medical School of the BCL-2 family (Conradt and Horvitz, 1998). 240 Longwood Avenue BIM may not be the only BH3-only member that is Boston, Massachusetts 02115 ind...

This in vitro microperfusion study examined the effects of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on proximal convoluted tubule (PC1) transport. Tubules were perfused with an ultrafiltrate-like solution and bathed in a serumlike albumin solution. Neither a physiologic (5 X 10-10 M), nor a pharmacologic (5 X 10jM) dose of growth hormone had an effect on PCT phosphate or bicarbon...

A thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter contributes importantly to mammalian salt homeostasis by mediating Na-Cl transport along the renal distal tubule. Although it has been accepted that thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransport occurs predominantly along the distal convoluted tubule in rats and mice, sites of expression in the rabbit have been controversial. A commonly accepted model of rabbit d...

Abstract The conventional way of choosing a fashion catalogue has lot drawbacks and is yet to be resolved. Struck in dilemma what choose not to, wearing items that are appropriate, lured by terms misleading such as 50 percent off limited period offer, when reality the prize was never higher first place.
