Seven individuals with unilateral anterior inferior temporal (AIT) lobectomies performed two types of shape recognition tasks with line drawings of 3D objects briefy presented in either the left or the right visual field. ...
Alveolar Macrophage Interaction With Air Pollution Particulates
(National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, 1997)
We applied flow cytometric analysis to characterize the in vitro response of alveolar macrophages (AM) to air pollution particulates. Normal hamster AM were incubated with varying concentrations of residual oil fly ash ...
Regulation of eIF-4E BP1 Phosphorylation by mTOR
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1997)
Explanatory Model Interview Catalogue (EMIC): Framework for Comparative Study of Illness
(SAGE Publications, 1997)
The Explanatory Model Interview Catalogue (EMIC) refers to a collection of locally adapted explanatory model interviews rooted in a common framework. Efforts to develop the EMIC were motivated by research experience in ...

The Informed Consent Process in Older Patients Who Developed Delirium
(Elsevier BV, 1997)
PURPOSE: Delirium, defined as an acute, fluctuating disorder of attention and cognition, is a serious and increasingly common problem for hospitalized older persons. Delirium poses unique ethical challenges for the informed ...
The avian respiratory system: a unique model for studies of respiratory toxicosis and for monitoring air quality
(Environmental Health Perspectives, 1997)
There are many distinct differences (morphologic, physiologic, and mechanical) between the bird's lung-air-sac respiratory system and the mammalian bronchoalveolar lung. In this paper, we review the physiology of the avian ...
Interferon-gamma deficiency prevents coronary arteriosclerosis but not myocardial rejection in transplanted mouse hearts
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 1997)
We have hypothesized that T cell cytokines participate in the pathogenesis of graft arterial disease (GAD). This study tested the consequences of IFN-gamma deficiency on arterial and parenchymal pathology in murine cardiac ...
A Clinical Trial of the Effects of Dietary Patterns on Blood Pressure
(New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM/MMS), 1997)
BACKGROUND:
It is known that obesity, sodium intake, and alcohol consumption factors influence blood pressure. In this clinical trial, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, we assessed the effects of dietary patterns ...

(American Medical Association (AMA), 1997)
Objectives. —To study determinants and adverse outcomes (mortality and rehospitalization) of β-blocker underuse in elderly patients with myocardial infarction; and whether the relative risks (RRs) of survival associated ...
