An immunological glomerulonephritis was induced in dogs by the administration of rabbit anti-canine glomerular serum (1 mg/kg) and the effects on white cells in blood, thoracic duct lymph and peripheral renal lymph were observed over 14 days. The principal response was seen in the renal lymph which showed, within 1 hr of the injection of antiserum, a significant increase in its cellular content...

The details of the future will remain forever veiled to us. But give a gypsy seer a Ph.D. in economics and arm her with statistics and mathematical models, and people suddenly start taking her seriously. She will be invited to testify before Congress and held up by State TV as an expert in business forecasting. But from an analytical point of view, what she does is no different from what she di...

Thirty patients selected at random from a pacemaker clinic were interviewed to gain an understanding of how psychological symptoms in these patients related to their cardiac condition. In 20% veiled depression or even a wish to die was elicited. Joking, fantasies, and denial were common psychological mechanisms used to adapt to their illness and the pacemaker itself. A dramatic example of attem...

A synthetic approach to palau'amine is described that exploits veiled symmetry in the structure. Bis-alkylidenes i have been prepared and found susceptible to halogenative desymmetrization using t-BuOCl. This oxidation forms the imbedded spirocyclopentane motif observed in the natural product. A host of atypical reactions and processes developed during these studies are discussed, as are plans ...

Biological sex and sex-defining steroids are strikingly under-rated as modulators of cerebral ischemic cell death. In adults, male sex has been long identified as a risk factor for clinical stroke, yet the biology behind this fact remains veiled. We know that overall stroke incidence is lower in women than in men, across widely varying ethnic and cultural backgrounds.1 Newer glimpses into this ...

Peripolesis is a phenomenon in which a lymphocyte attaches itself to another cell, usually a macrophage or veiled cell, and proceeds to circle around it. In emperipolesis, a related phenomenon, the lymphocyte invaginates the target cell so deeply that it appears to be intracytoplasmic. Lung cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids from 20 patients were observed in the living state and filmed. Per...

— This paper shows why corruption is especially difficult to detect under China’s system of decentralized authoritarian rule, which I call a “rule of mandates.” Local officials must pursue high priority political targets but have immense discretion over which laws to implement. A relative standard for corruption consequently arises since non-implementation of laws may be mandate-serving or may ...
