OBJECTIVE To examine ethnic differences in observed parenting and child behavior and the moderating effects of ethnicity on the relationship between treatment and parent and child behavior. METHOD Observations of 508 children with ADHD (ages 7-9) and their caregivers, collected during the Multimodal Treatment Study of ADHD, were analyzed using univariate and mixed-model ANOVAs. RESULTS Alth...

U M LTIORGAN harvesting for individual organ transplantation is well defined according to the principles of Starzl. However, some pancreatic transplant surgeons believe the pancreas should not suffer hyperperfusion as occurs in multiorgan harvesting. This is in conflict with the need of all donor organs for transplantation and specially when multivisceral transplantation is planned. We believe ...

We apply a single Boltzmann-like integro-diierential equation to model pattern formation in aspect space. Dynamics of density distributions are considered in two cases. First, the distribution of organisms on the real line is investigated. A linear stability analysis reveals conditions on interactions between the organisms that lead to aggregation and periodic patterns. Use of diiusion approxim...

Studies of ventricular depolarization with multichannel recording technics permit detailed three dimensional analysis of the process. Activity commences on the mid left septal surface, followed by activity on the right septum. Rapid endocardial excitation follows and leads to endoepicardial activation of the walls. The latest areas activated are in the basal septum. These findings are related t...

Non-puerperal uterine inversion is an extremely rare gynaecological event that is usually associated with uterine tumours such as submucous or cervical leiomyomas. In this report, we describe a case of uterine inversion due to a large submucous leiomyoma in a 42-year-old multiparous and obese Caucasian woman.

ADIFFERENCE has been observed in certain instances between the onset of QRS in intracavitary and surface limb leads. Simultaneous tracings demonstrate that when premature ventricular depolarization exists the early rapid growth in magnitude of potential recorded by intracavitary leads may be nearly or totally inapparent in surface leads. Following premature depolarization changes occur in intra...

Adjusting input-output gain is crucial for information processing by the brain. Gain control of subthreshold depolarization is commonly ascribed to increased membrane conductance caused by shunting inhibition. But contrary to its divisive effect on depolarization, shunting inhibition on its own fails to divisively modulate firing rate, apparently upsetting a critical tenet of neural models that...

This pilot study examined changes in parenting skills and child behavior following participation in an online positive parenting skills program designed for young children with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Thirty-seven families with a child between 3 and 9 years of age who sustained a moderate to severe TBI were randomly assigned to one of two interventions: online parenting skills training (n...

The evaluation of graft function at various stages after transplantation is relevant, particularly at the moment of organ harvest, when a decision must be made whether to use the organ. Autofluorescence spectroscopy is noninvasive technique to monitor the metabolic condition of a liver graft throughout its course, from an initial evaluation in the donor, through cold ischemia transportation, to...
