Congenital heart disease in de Lange's syndrome.
Seven (29%) of 24 patients with de Lange's syndrome were found to have congenital heart disease. Right-sided obstructive lesions were most commonly encountered. Approximately one in five of all patients with the de Lange syndrome exhibit congenital heart disease, usually ventricular septal defect or pulmonic stenosis.

Use of a crisis committee in a therapeutic community.
Described is the use of a patient crisis committee in an adult therapeutic community. The crisis committee is a function of the patient government and is called into action in situations formerly handled by physicians or nurses. This method appears to be highly successful in the therapeutic community described.

Leptospirosis: a neglected cause of nonbacterial meningoencephalitis.
Two cases of leptospirosis with different clinical presentations are presented. The importance of recognizing mild, nonicteric and meningoencephalitic forms in order to identify vectors and contaminated areas and prevent further infections is emphasized. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) findings in reported cases of leptospir...

On the incidence of renal vein thrombosis in the nephrotic syndrome.
Forty-eight patients with nephrotic syndrome were evaluated prospectively; the studies included inferior venacavagrams and ventilation perfusion lung scans. Eleven patients were found to have renal vein thrombosis (RVT). Eight of 21 patients with membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) or membranoproliferative glomerulonep...

Selective spore survival during replica-plating of fission yeast.
Vegetative cells of Schizosaccharomyces pombe, upon exposure to acetone vapours, are inactivated at a faster rate than ascospores of this yeast. This observation has been used to develop a simple and fast method by which colonies can be replica-plated and only spores survive in the replicas. The colony patterns are exp...

Energy conservation during aerobic growth in Paracoccus denitrificans.
Paracoccus denitrificans was aerobically grown in chemostat culture with succinate or gluconate as carbon source. Due to the presence of two phosphorylation sites in the respiratory chain and the absence of branching, theoretical P/O ratios of 1.71 and 1.82 were calculated for cells growing respectively with succinate ...

Prediction of relapse in schizophrenic outpatients treated by drug and sociotherapy.
Despite the established efficacy of neuroleptics for maintaining schizophrenics in the community, there are data suggesting that those with very good prognostic signs may do as well without drugs. In testing this, we find no evidence that patients with good signs are not in need of drugs; instead they profit most from ...
