OBJECTIVE To investigate commonalities in the clinical presentation of melancholia over time. METHOD I conducted a comparative study to 2 epidemiologically complete databases from 1875-1924 and 1995-2005. RESULTS Patients in the historical period (1875-1924, compared with 1995-2005) with a diagnosis of melancholia show a classic profile of endogenous onset, with remission after 6 months, ne...

assumed to be 286 km. sec.1in direction of 550 longitude6 is allowed for, very little change is brought about in the results of the computation. The velocity of the clouds then proves to be 90 km. sec.-' radially, and 583 km. sec. -1 tangentially, with respect to this center and no appreciable change takes place in the constants of the hyperbolic or elliptic orbits. The plane of the orbit, howe...

But for much of his career, he was at the Medical Research Council (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Biology (LMB) in Cambridge, United Kingdom. Huxley joined the American Society for Cell Biology in 1982. In...

In view of the recent investigations on the effect of temperature changes on biological processes (Crozier, 1924-25, a, b; Crozier and Federighi, 1924-25; Crozier and Sfier, 1924-25, a, b; Glaser, 1924-25) it became of interest to reexamine the relation between temperature and the rate of pulsation of the contractile vacuole of Paramecium. Kanitz (1907) found in four different species of Infuso...
