Ontogeny and distribution of immunoreactive gastric inhibitory polypeptide (IR-GIP) in rat small intestine.
The ontogeny and distribution of immunoreactive gastric inhibitory polypeptide (IR-GIP) has been studied in the rat duodenum and jejunoileum between day 20 post-coitum and day 150 post-partum by radioimmunoassay following tissue extraction. In foetuses on day 20 of gestation, the content of IR-GIP was 2.0 +/- 0.2 ng/du...

Primary rhabdomyosarcoma of the cerebrum. An ultrastructural study.
A case of primary cerebral rhabdomyosarcoma in a 51-year-old female is reported. The histogenesis of this tumor is discussed. The clinicopathological features of 10 previously reported similar tumors of the CNS are briefly reviewed. Histologically the tumor was polymorphic, but composed of poorly differentiated cells i...

Electrocardiographic axis deviation in Navajo and Apache indians.
It has been our clinical impression that the range of the mean frontal-plane electrocardiographic QRS axis was greater than might have been anticipated in healthy Navajo and Apache Indians. To determine whether this clinical impression was correct, electrocardiograms were obtained from 146 Navajo, 144 Apache, and 159 n...
