The effects of commercial local anaesthetic solutions on the isolated rabbit ear artery.
The response of an isolated artery preparation to commercial local anaesthetic solutions containing either prilocaine or lignocaine in the presence of adrenaline or noradrenaline has been examined. In low doses, both local anaesthetics were found to augment the constrictor response to adrenaline, wheras at higher doses...

Hypoxic cell sensitizers and heavy charged-particle radiations.
Stationary-phase populations of Chinese hamster V-79 cells were irradiated with 250 kV X-rays and the Bragg peaks (spread to a width of 4 cm) of energetic He-, C-, Ne-, and A-ion beams produced at the 184-inch cyclotron and BEVALAC at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory. Survival curves were generated with each radiation for ...

The effect of misonidazole on the radiation response of clonogenic human pancreatic carcinoma cells.
An enhancing effect of misonidazole on the in vivo radiation response of clonogenic human tumour cells from a pancreatic carcinoma xenograft has been demonstrated using both a soft agar in vitro assay and an agar in diffusion chamber assay. Enhancement ratios of 1.8 and 1.3 were found when cells were assayed at 0 h and...

The demonstration of in vivo misonidazole tumour toxicity using post radiation hypoxia.
The cytotoxic effect of the radiosensitizer misonidazole on hypoxic tumour cells in vivo has been studied.

Premature loss of primary teeth: part I, its overall effect on occlusion and space in the permanent dentition.
Premature loss of primary molars causes, without doubt, permanent changes in regard to space and sagittal molar relations, in the permanent dentition. The changes are due to drifting of teeth and lack of growth, and such changes should, whenever possible, be prevented. In part two of this series of papers, a further an...

The convergence angle in teeth prepared for artificial crowns.
The bucco-lingual and mesio-distal convergence angles in vital and rootfilled teeth prepared for complete crowns were measured microscopically on 190 stone dies. In vital teeth the mean convergence angles varied between approximately 19 and 27 degrees. In rootfilled teeth the mean angles varied between 12 and 37.

Cytologic correlates of chemical carcinogens in respiratory tracts of dogs.
During canine respiratory carcinogenesis studies with benzo[a]pyrene (BP) and N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (NMU), a stereotypic pattern of cytomorphology characteristic for each carcinogen was observed. In the early stage, BP induced changes primarily in the cytoplasm. These changes consisted of incresaed size, basophilia, a...
