Based on the Outline, cultural case formulations for four American Indian children were developed and their comprehensiveness was assessed. |
RESULTS |
Applied to the case material, the Outline provided a clear template for the development of cultural formulations. Nonetheless, several gaps in the material required by the Outline were identified, particularly in the areas concerning cultural identity and cultural elements of the therapeutic relationship. |
CONCLUSIONS |
Clinicians working with children should recognize the strengths as well as the limitations of the Outline and expand their cultural descriptions accordingly. Several additions to the text of the Outline that will facilitate the development of comprehensive cultural formulations specific to children and adolescents are ... |
OBJECTIVE |
Gastric dysrhythmias have been noted in diabetic patients with upper GI symptoms attributed to delayed gastric emptying. The aim of this study was to assess gastric myoelectrical activity in patients with asymptomatic insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. |
METHODS |
Nine healthy subjects (five men, four women) and ten patients with insulin-dependent diabetes (six men, four women) participated in the study. Percutaneous electrogastrography was applied with a portable device on all subjects for 2 h before, during, and 2 h after the ingestion of a standard meal. Spectral analysis of ... |
RESULTS |
Bradygastria was significantly more common during the entire period of recording (p = 0.024), and in particular during the fasting state (p = 0.0008) and the period of meal consumption (p = 0.0001) in diabetic patients than in controls. In addition, the presence of normogastria did not increase significantly after the ... |
CONCLUSIONS |
Gastric dysrhythmias are present even in diabetic patients without upper GI symptoms attributed to gastric stasis. Increased presence of bradygastria and failure to increase the slow-wave amplitude postprandially are the predominant forms of abnormal myoelectrical activity in these cases.MotX, the channel component of ... |
Thrust for propulsion of flagellated bacteria is generated by rotation of a propeller, the flagellum. The power to drive the polar flagellar rotary motor of Vibrio parahaemolyticus is derived from the transmembrane potential of sodium ions. Force is generated by the motor on coupling of the movement of ions across the ... |
It is a truism that police in India generally lack legitimate authority and public trust. This lack is widely understood by scholars, policy analysts, and police practitioners as being rooted in the institution's colonial development as a means of oppression, and its alleged corruption and criminalization in the postco... |
Abstract Haiyaso, a short text found in the collected works of the early Tokugawa Confucian Hayashi Razan (1583–1657), purports to be a record of a debate held in 1606 between Razan and the famous Japanese Jesuit scholastic Habian (1585–1621). The debate is presented in the text as a confrontation between Confucianism ... |
OBJECTIVE |
To investigate the effects of different doses of propofol on pulmonary metastasis of intravenous injected tumor cells and expression of MTA1 and Wnt1 in the metastatic tumor in rats. |
METHODS |
Forty male Fischer344 rats were randomly divided into 4 equal groups for intravenous administration of normal saline, intralipid, or propofol at the dose of 30 or 50 mg/kg pumped via the femoral vein. One hour after the infusion, MADB106 tumor cells (2×10) were injected intravenously in the rats. Pulmonary metastasis o... |
RESULTS |
The rats receiving saline and intralipid treatments showed a comparable number of pulmonary metastasis and similar expression levels of MTA1 and Wnt1 in the metastatic tumor (P>0.05); the tumor number and MTA1 and Wnt1 were significantly lower in the two propofol groups (P<0.01). The doses of propofol was inversely cor... |
CONCLUSION |
Propofol can dose-dependently suppress pulmonary metastasis of intravenously injected tumor cells and down-regulate MTA1 and Wnt1 expressions in the metastatic tumor tissue.Refeeding Enhances Intestinal Repair during an Acute Enteritis in Infant Rabbits Subjected to Protein-Energy Malnutrition |
ABSTRACT: We examined the effects of refeeding during an acute bacterial enteritis on small intestinal repair in infant rabbits subjected to protein-energy malnutrition and in noninfected and infected dietary controls.

Ferguson discusses Emil Heerbrugger's Grand Grecian Military March. Grand Grecian Military March was composed for one or two guitars by Heerbrugger and published in the 1830s. It is parlor music for the amateur. It displays the traits of so much of that repertoire--foursquare phrasing, strict diatonicism, tonic-dominan... |
Removal of rain streaks in video is a challenging problem due to the random spatial distribution and fast motion of rain. This paper presents a new rain removal algorithm that incorporates both temporal and chromatic properties of rain in video. The temporal property states that an image pixel is never always covered b... |
This is a review of the available knowledge on nuclear behavior of the mycelium within polypore genera (Agaricomycetes, Basidiomycota). Information on 68 genera showed that nuclear behavior is a distinct and consistent feature at genus level and can be coupled with phylogenetic differentiation. The sole exception was f... |
In this paper, we proposed a novel agent-based distributed secondary control strategy for energy storage systems (ESSs) in islanded ac microgrids. Agents are designed to deploy the finite-time consensus algorithm with non-linear law by receiving limited information from local and neighbor agents. The ESSs with the prop... |

Most studies of behaviour examine traits whose proximate causes include sensory input and neural decision‐making, but conflict and collaboration in biological systems began long before brains or sensory systems evolved. Many behaviours result from non‐neural mechanisms such as direct physical contact between recognitio... |
OBJECTIVE |
To study the changes and actions of neuronal constructive nitric oxide synthase(ncNOS) in heroin drug abuse. |
METHODS |
The expression of ncNOS and ncNOS mRNA in neurons of cerebral cortex, periaqueductal gray matter and the ventral tegmental area was observed by immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization and image analysis technique after heroin dependence and spontaneous withdrawal in rats. |
RESULTS |
The quantity of ncNOS and ncNOS mRNA rised clearly and the number of ncNOS and ncNOS mRNA positive cells increased greatly in heroin dependence and withdrawal. The changes of ncNOS and ncNOS mRNA in spontaneous withdrawal were more clear than ones of dependence. Heroin dependence and withdrawal led to alterations in nc... |
CONCLUSION |
The ncNOS plays an important role in heroin dependence and withdrawal. The ncNOS immunohistochemical changes observed in the present study might be useful for the forensic pathological diagnosis of heroin drug abuse.A study of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in rural setup |
