The potential for metabolic activation of bladder carcinogens by the bladder mucosa was examined by determining if bladder mucosa microsomes contain cytochrome P-450, exhibit typical microsomal-substrate interactions, and are capable of mediat ing the N-hydroxylation of the bladder carcinogen, 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP). The carbon monoxide difference spectrum of reduced bovine bladder microsomes ...

THE view that chronic cholecystitis is the commonest organic cause of indigestion is widely held. In support of this contention Eusterman,l from a study of patients in the Mayo Clinic exhibiting gastric symptoms, states that there are sixty per cent. more cases associated with a diseased gall-bladder than with a peptic ulcer. To understand and estimate the value of such a statement, it is neces...

285 antibiotic therapy were initiated. A transthorac‐ ic echocardiography (TTE) showed significant right ventricular overload (right ventricular out‐ flow tract, 40 mm; right ventricular inflow tract [RVIT], 52 mm; tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion [TAPSE], 11 mm; severe tricuspid regur‐ gitation jet, 3.2 m/s). Because of high risk, the pa‐ tient was excluded from a surgery or an invas...

In resource-constrained environments, supply chains for consumables, repairs and calibration of diagnostic equipment are generally poor. To obviate this issue, we propose the use of widely available hardware with a strong supply chain: a cellphone with a hands-free kit. In particular, we focus on the use of the audio channel to determine heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) in order...

white mold with upright architecture has progressed relatively slowly. Cumbersome screening methods, low Physiological resistance is an important component of integrated heritability, and few available resistance sources have strategies used to control white mold [caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary], a major disease of common bean (Phaseolus contributed to the lack of progress fo...

Mass and energy exchanges with the atmosphere were compared in two soybean (Glycine max L. Merr. cv. Harosoy) isolines differing in pubescence density. The study was conducted in a field with a Sharpsburg silty clay loam soil (fine, montmorillonitic, mesic Typic Argiudoll) during the summer of 1980 at Mead, Nebr. Mass and energy exchanges were determined by means of micrometeorological techniqu...
