Induction of secondary axis in hydra revisited: New insights into pattern formation
In 1909, several years before the famous `Organizer’ experiments of Spemann and Mangold, Ethel Browne demonstrated induction of a secondary axis in hydra by grafting a hypostome. Based on this and subsequent work, in the late sixties, Lewis Wolpert proposed the theory of morphogen gradients and positional information. We have studied secondary axis induction by hypostome and foot tissue using t...

As originally formulated by Goldman, the Far Eastern pattern is characterized by ‘excessively high’ death rates among older men relative to death rates among both younger men a...
متن کاملNew insights into the temporal pattern of hypoxemia in COPD.
T he life-preserving benefits of long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) were established nearly 2 decades ago.1,2 One cannot overemphasize the fact that LTOT is the only treatment that has a positive impact on mortality in COPD patients. Pulmonologists are well versed in the benefits of LTOT, and recognize the importance of identifying hypoxemic patients and instituting LTOT. The criteria for implemen...

In her response, Noreen Goldman makes three major points. First, the Far Eastern mortality pattern as originally formulated by her differs from that defined by the United Nations Population Division. Second, the method used...
