It has become evident (Osborn, 1943; Lucas and Lewis, 1944) that higher plants are potential sources of antibiotic agents. Several investigators (Little and Grubaugh, 1946; Atkinson and Rainsford, 1946; Sanders, Weatherwax, and McClung, 1945) have reported antibiotic effects of juices and of crude extracts of plants on various microorganisms. The active materials can be separated in some degree...

Horder (1909) reviewed 150 cases of subacute bacterial endocarditis at all ages and found that congenital heart lesions were present in eight (5-3 ). In 250 similar cases reviewed by Kelson and White (1945) there were 13 (5-2%) congenital heart lesions, and in a further 88 cases seen between 1939 and 1944 White, Mathews and Evans (1945) recorded 12 (13%), whilst Seabury (1947) put the incidence...

T'HE experimental production of infected lesions of the rabbit's cornea by intra-corneal inoculation of suspensions of pneumococci has been described by Ginsberg and Kaufman (1913) and by Robson and Scott (1943a, b). Cole, Hamilton-Paterson and Sorsby (1945) were unable to confirm the findings of Robson and Scott, although they used the same strain of pneumococcus. This divergence of results ha...

Existing studies of the trade-conflict relationship focus primarily on dyadic trade and its implications for the opportunity cost of conflict. Most states maintain economic relations with numerous partners, yet few studies have examined the effects of extradyadic trade on dyadic conflict. In an influential discussion of economic interdependence, Albert Hirschman ([1945] 1980) draws attention to...

This study, compared survivorship for first episodes of cerebral infarction, intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage which occurred in residents of Rochester, Minnesota during 5-year periods from 1945-49 through 1975-79. The progressive improvement in long-term survival following cerebral infarction which occurred between 1945-49 and 1970-74 was such that a higher proportion of pat...

The distribution of sea level in the Mediterranean Sea is recovered for the period 1945-2000 by using a reduced space optimal interpolation analysis. The method involves estimating empirical orthogonal functions from satellite altimeter data spanning the period 1993-2005 that are then combined with tide gauge data to recover sea level fields over the period 1945-2000. The reconstruction techniq...
