AFTER the second world war, the emigration of peoples from Europe to Australia was greatly accelerated. The large numbers of these different national groups now resident in Australia has permitted investigations of different disease incidence among them. During the examination of over 300 patients who had angle-closure glaucoma (in one of its forms previously described by Lowe, 1961), it was po...

Recent developments in the surgery of the heart valves have made the pulse duplicator an indispensable research tool; the duplicator also provides a useful aid in the teaching of the movements of normal and pathological heart valves. Many types have been described in the literature, and a review (Austen, Shaw, Scanrell, and Thurlbeck, 1958; Barnard, McKenzie, and de Villiers, 1959; Bjork, Inton...

The entity of interstitial plasma cell pneumonia due to Pneumocystis carinii has received increasing attention during the past 10 years. Extensive studies and reviews concerning this problem, its epidemiology and pathogenesis (Ahvenainen, 1957; Bachmann, 1954; Cahalane, 1962; Jirovec, 1 960a and b; Muller and Vietor, 1957), its clinical course and picture (Berdnikoff, 1959; Dvorak and Jirovec, ...

Approximate entropy (ApEn) can measure the regularity and complexity of a nonlinear system. We find that results ApEn are relatively stable when sample size time series exceeds 100, which indicates estimation algorithm robust to small data. In this study, daily precipitation records in China from 1961 2015 was first analyzed by using ApEn, then we further investigated spatial temporal variabili...

Each year since 1958 the reported number of cases of infectious syphilis has risen and the year 1961 was no exception. There have been variations in different parts of the country but, although the total is still small by the standards of some other countries, the proportionate increase is considerable. In 1960 the number of these cases was 994, of which 819 were in males and 175 in females. In...

The answer given to my Letter to the Editor' was quite unsatisfactory.2 By going to a doubly connected region containing the plasma' the requirements for nuclear fusion for practical power applications may be met.

Coercive persuasion and thought reform are alternate names for programs of social influence capable of producing substantial behavior and attitude change through the use of coercive tactics, persuasion, and/or interpersonal and group-based influence manipulations (Schein 1961; Lifton 1961). Such programs have also been labeled "brainwashing" (Hunter 1951), a term more often used in the media th...
