OBJECTIVE To measure total daily salt intake using 24 h urinary Na excretion within a sample of Victorian schoolchildren aged 5-13 years and to assess discretionary salt use habits of children and parents. DESIGN Cross-sectional study. SETTING Completed within a convenience sample of independent primary schools (n 9) located in Victoria, Australia. SUBJECTS Two hundred and sixty children ...

On sounding the bladder some roughness of a foreign bod/was felt. Patient placed under the influence of chloroform, morphia injected under skiu and median operation perfomed. On introducing finger into bladder, the grass stick was felt, it was bent, hooked by finger and brought out. One end of it was covered by deposit of salt. There was also a nuall soft stone which crumbled during extraction ...

We have recently synthesized [Ni (MAP) ] complex [H-MAP= 2- (methylamino) pyridine]. 2- (Methy1amino)pyridine reacts with MeLi in THF and generates the lithium salt (Li-MAP). Further reaction of NiCl with two equivalent of this ligand in THF leads to the formation of a dark red solution. Analytical data, molecular weight, and magnetic susceptibility of this complex confirm the formula [N...

The surface conductivity of insulators in the field is usually very non-uniformly distributed. In this case the integral surface conductivity is not an appropriate parameter of pollution severity. A better evaluation can be achieved on the basis of local conductivity measurements by means of special probes, e.g. the rod probe or tissue strip probe. In this paper the form factors of different pr...

In 1975, Social Security beneficiaries were given the option of having their monthly benefit payments sent directly to their banks through an electronic funds transfer system. Since then, beneficiaries have been enrolling in this program in rapidly increasing numbers. At the end of 1976, fewer than 5 million beneficiaries--14 percent of the total--were enrolled in the program. By the end of 198...

In this study, pre-mining ambient gamma dose equivalent rates at 1 m above the ground were measured using a Gamma-Scout portable radiation survey meter two sites, A and B, around Manyoni uranium deposit in Tanzania. Site is expected to receive mine-dust particles with an aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 µm (PM10) that have mean annual level concentrations (AGLC) ≥ 10% of WHO air quality guideline limi...

Stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) deposit plant sterols in their bodies and have a mutation in ATP binding cassette transporter G5 (Abcg5). Lymphatic recovery rates of campesterol and sitosterol in SHRSP rats were comparable to those in Wistar rats, a strain that does not deposit plant sterols in the body and has no mutation in Abcg5. Higher absorption of stigmasterol and sit...

Fibronectin was localized using peroxidase and biotin-avidin-ferritin techniques in developmental stages of the chick embryo from laying to primitive streak formation. The primary location of fibronectin at all stages examined was the basal lamina of the epiblast and its associated extracellular material. The remaining tissues showed little or no immunochemical deposit. At the primitive streak ...
