Cervical ectopic pregnancy: surgical or medical treatment?
Cervical pregnancies are one of the rarest forms of ectopic gestations. The incidence of cervical ectopic pregnancies ranges between 1 in 1,000 to 95,000 gestations (Parente et al., Obstet Gynecol 62:79–82, 19...

Long-term results of a three-week intensive cardiac out-patient rehabilitation program in motivated patients with low social status
The short-term benefits of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) are well established. In contrast, well-documented long-term results are rare. The objective of this longitudinal multi-centre observational study was to ...

Open AccessUltrasound-guided large-core needle biopsies of breast lesions: analysis of 962 cases to determine the number of samples for reliable tumour classification
The objective of this one-institutional study was to determine the number of large-core needle biopsies (LCNB), under three-dimensional ultrasound (3D-US) validation, that are sufficient to obtain a reliable h...

Alternative reduced integration avoiding spurious modes for 8-node quadrilateral and 20-node hexahedron finite elements
Integrating the isoparametric 8-node quadrilateral and the 20-node hexahedron elements with Gauss integration based on the 3 point rule produces stiff elements. The excessive stiffness is mainly due to locking...

Characterization of polymeric light emitting diodes by SIMS depth profiling analysis
SIMS depth profiling experiments have been used to elucidate the layered structure, the impurity distribution, and current induced changes in polymeric light emitting diodes (LEDs). In the first investigated s...

Comparative Investigations of Terguride Isomers on Central Dopamine and Noradrenaline Functions
Terguride is an 8α-ergoline derived from the dopamine (DA) receptor agonist lisuride. In previous neuropharmacological (Wachtel and Dorow, 1983) and neurobiochemical (Kehr, 1984) experiments terguride has been...

Videodensitometric Measurement of Coronary Flow
The first attempts to measure coronary artery flow velocities using densitometry were done nearly 15 years ago (Rutishauser et al. 1967, 1970a, 1970b; Smith et al. 1971). Methodological improvements have been ...

Non-Expressed Tumor Virus Oncogenes can be Activated by Tumor Promoters
Papilloma viruses can induce both transformation of cells in vitro and tumor formation in vivo. The viral genomes reside in the cells as unintegrated episomes. In certain experimental systems such as primary mous...

The effects of equal caloric amounts of xylitol, sucrose and starch on insulin requirements and blood glucose levels in insulin-dependent diabetics
Xylitol has been suggested as a potentially useful sweetener in the diabetic diet. In 14 insulin-dependent diabetics a standard diabetic diet regimen was compared with diets in which starch was isocalorically ...

Influence of Nitroglycerin on Aortic Compliance, Capacity of the Windkessel, and Peripheral Resistance
In recent years it has been established that the effect of nitroglycerin (NTG) is mainly related to its extracardial factors. Most of the investigators found a reduction only in preload [2, 9, 12], while other...

Effects of Nitroglycerin on Left Ventricular and Myocardial Function in Aortic Stenosis
The beneficial effects of nitroglycerin (NTG) in ischemic heart disease are due mainly to a reduction in preload [1, 2] and, consequently, in myocardial oxygen demands [5, 8]. However, both a secondary effect ...

Pulmonary Artery Pressure During Exercise and LV Diastolic Compliance Before and After Coronary Artery Surgery
The elevation in pulmonary artery pressure and in left ventricular enddiastolic pressure in ischemic heart disease is partially caused by an increased ventricular stiffness [1,3,5]. Nitroglycerin does not only...

Persistence and recombination of minicircular SV 40 DNA in permissive cells
Minicircular SV 40 DNA molecules were obtained by serial undiluted passages of the virus stock. By using high multiplicities of infection, and by cocultivation of infected and uninfected cells, as much as 90% ...

Disorders of Left Ventricular Performance in Congestive and Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy
While the histologic features of COCM and HOCM are well defined, the effects of the morphologic disorders on cardiac dynamics are not yet clear [3, 8–10, 13]. Whether ventricular function in HOCM is disturbed ...

The Transcription of the SV40 Genome in Productively Infected and Transformed Cells
A particular feature of cells which have been transformed by DNA-containing tumor viruses is the restricted expression of the viral genome. These cells do not display any of the viral functions which occur lat...

Size and distribution of SV 40 DNA sequences covalently linked with the DNA of permissive mammalian cells
CV-1 cells productively infected with SV40 contain viral DNA which is covalently linked with the host cell DNA. These linear duplex viral-host DNA molecules are replicated during the infectious cycle. They can...

A Novel Form of DNA Appearing After Infection of Permissive Cells by SV40 Containing both Viral and Reiterated Host Sequences
Covalently linked SV40 and cellular RNA sequences have been described in productively infected cells (Jaenisch, 1972). In agreement with this observation integration of SV40 DNA into the host DNA of productive...
