Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The results with ventilatory studies showed the most effective means of respiratory support was insertion of an endotracheal tube after thoracotomy.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The average linear and quadratic velocity of atomic electrons and also the most probable velocities are calculated for atoms with Z = 1 to Z = 54 by using the Roothaan-Hartree-Fock atomic wavefunctions of Celmenti and Roetti.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the temperature and stress dependence of the martensitic transformation for single crystals of β-brass and found that the energy which is dissipated during the progression of the transformation is generated mainly by the friction of moving habit plane interfaces when the transformation was induced either by cooling below or by applying a stress at a constant temperature above.

TL;DR: In the transplanted tissue obtained 60 and 100 days after the operation the growth cones were scarce, whereas typical nerve endings became numerous, and these endings contained small clear vesicles which reacted positively when the tissue was treated with A-ZIO-4.4.
Abstract: Pineal glands were grafted under the kidney capsule of mature male rats for periods of 20, 40, 60 and 100 days. Each grafted gland was then excised and divided into two halves. One half was processed for conventional electron microscopy and the other was fixed in aldehydes and then incubated in a zinc iodide-osmium tetroxide mixture at pH 4.4 (A-ZIO-4.4). During the forty days following the operation pinealocytes showed the typical ultrastructural features associated with cells with a high protein and/or peptide secretory activity. On the other hand, during this period, the number of granular vesicles decreased progressively. From day 40 on, the grafted pinealocytes lacked granular vesicles. During the second half of the experimental period the ultrastructure of the pinealocytes indicated that their secretory activity was considerably decreased. During the acute phase of the experimental period numerous structures regarded as the tip of growing axons as well as typical nerve fibres appeared around blood vessels and within the parenchyma of the grafted gland. In the transplanted tissue obtained 60 and 100 days after the operation the growth cones were scarce, whereas typical nerve endings became numerous. These endings contained small clear vesicles which reacted positively when the tissue was treated with A-ZIO-4.4. The secretory activity of the grafted pineal gland and the nature of the nerve fibres which innervate the graft are discussed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, an ultra-high vacuum goniometer of novel design for use in experiments with ion beams is described, which allows a sample to be rotated around two axes over 360°, around a third over 180°, and to be translated along three perpendicular axes.

TL;DR: It is concluded thatd-amphetamine and fenfluramine are able to alter the facilitatory actions of progesterone on luteinizing hormone and prolactin release in ovariectomized estradiol-primed rats.
Abstract: Subcutaneous administration ofd-amphetamine at various doses (1.25, 2.5, and 5 mg/kg) decreased plasma luteinizing-hormone levels in ovariectomized rats primed with estradiol and injected with progesterone. In these animals prolactin levels decreased after injection of 0.6 and 1.25 mg/kg ofd-amphetamine. No significant hormone modifications were detected in ovariectomized and ovariectomized estradiol-primed rats after injection of 2.5 mg/kg ofd-amphetamine. Fenfluramine at doses of 25 mg/kg induced decreases of plasma LH and prolactin levels in ovariectomized estradiol-and progesterone-treated rats. A low dose of fenfluramine, 2.5 mg/kg, had no effect.

TL;DR: In der Gegenwart vergeht kaum ein Jahr, in dem nicht neue attraktive Fruchtevarietaten selektiert und die uberseeischen Transportmoglichkeiten verbessert werden, wodurch die tropischen Erzeugergebiete mit den grosen Konsumlandern der kalten Regionen in immer engere Kontakte treten as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Hinsichtlich der Versorgung der Menschheit mit vitaminreichen Gemusen und aromatischen Fruchten tropischer und subtropischer Herkunft sind wahrend des letzten Jahrhunderts einzigartige Fortschritte erzielt worden. In der Gegenwart vergeht kaum ein Jahr, in dem nicht neue attraktive Fruchtevarietaten selektiert und die uberseeischen Transportmoglichkeiten verbessert werden, wodurch die tropischen Erzeugergebiete mit den grosen Konsumlandern der kalten Regionen in immer engere Kontakte treten.

TL;DR: In this article, ion trapping and sputtering during bombardment of polycrystalline aluminum films with 30 keV O 2 + and 26 keV N 2 + ions were studied using a quartz-crystal resonator technique; and the resulting compounds, Al2O3 and AlN, by transmission electron microscopy.

TL;DR: In den domestizierten tropischen Gewachsen befinden sich erstaunlich viele Gewurzpflanzen, die in botanischer Hinsicht zu den allerverschiedensten Familien gehoren.
Abstract: Unter den domestizierten tropischen Gewachsen befinden sich erstaunlich viele Gewurzpflanzen, die in botanischer Hinsicht zu den allerverschiedensten Familien gehoren. Das beweist, das Aromastoffe und Gewurze ein altes Anliegen der Menschheit betreffen. Gut zu speisen — denn dazu dienen die Gewurze — war offenbar seit alters fur viele Millionen Menschen eine ernsthafte Beschaftigung oder — vor allem in Asien — ein bevorzugtes Vergnugen.

TL;DR: It is concluded that under the present experimental conditions, the grafted adrenal tissue does not differentiate into pars distalis and that only one cell type of the transplanted tissue continues to secrete its specific cell product.

TL;DR: The Palmae as mentioned in this paper is one of the most famous botanischen Arten-familien unter den tropischen Gewachsen in the world.
Abstract: Mit mehr als 2000 Arten bilden die Palmae eine der grosten botanischen Familien unter den tropischen Gewachsen. Bei fast 200 verschiedenen Genera ware es ein vermessenes Unterfangen, in diesem Buch auch nur den Versuch zu einer vollstandigen Aufzahlung aller nutzbaren Palmen zu machen. Wir beschranken uns deswegen auf einige bereits kultivierte — oder im Zustand der Semidomestikation befindliche — Arten, wobei wir uns bei letzteren z. T. auf eigene Beobachtungen in den Indianergebieten des oberen Orinoco, Boliviens und Paraguays stutzen konnen. Selbst fur die angeblich schon lange in menschlicher Obhut befindlichen Palmenarten — viel mehr aber noch fur die bisher nur im Naturzustand ausgebeuteten Arten — gilt allgemein die Feststellung, das sich die Palmen erst am Anfang ihrer Domestikation mittels zweckentsprechender genetischer Methoden befinden. Dies betrifft sowohl die afrikanische Olpalme mit einer knapp hundertjahrigen Kultivierung — als auch die seit Jahrtausenden kultivierten ehrwurdigen Dattel- und Kokospalmen.
