37. The histological diagnosis of chronic gastritis in fibreoptic gastroscope biopsy specimens
The advent of the fibreoptic gastroscope with biopsy facilities has provided the means of obtaining biopsy specimens under direct vision from any part of the stomach. This creates new opportunities for the study of chronic gastritis, and, in particular, its evolution, topographical location, and causal relationships. On the basis of an experience with more t

38. The Extent of Role Differentiation among Hospitals
The case mix of 65 western Pennsylvania hospitals is studied from Hospital Utilization Project data comprising a quarter of a million patient records, and five measures are constructed to describe the inpatient population on the basis of diagnoses and surgical procedures. The case-mix variation defined by these measures is then analyzed in a series of regres

39. ExpressYourself: a modular platform for processing and visualizing microarray data
DNA microarrays are widely used in biological research; by analyzing differential hybridization on a single microarray slide, one can detect changes in mRNA expression levels, increases in DNA copy numbers and the location of transcription factor binding sites on a genomic scale. Having performed the experiments, the major challenge is to process large, nois

40. The Development and Organization of a New Medical School Library
Factors to consider in determining the type of new medical school library include geographical location, proximity of general library facilities, and financial support. The librarian should be directly responsible to the dean of the medical school, have faculty status, and be a member of the administrative council. Five professional librarians and five cleri

41. Evaluating the impact of certificate-of-need regulation using measures of ultimate outcome: some cautions from experience in Massachusetts.
Prior evaluations of certificate of need (CON) have concluded that such regulation did little to reduce the level of hospital capital investment. These studies, however, failed to examine the underlying patterns of hospital investment behavior onto which CON was imposed and further neglected to determine the lag period that separates the introduction of regu

42. Advance care planning in nursing homes: pre- and post-Patient Self-Determination Act.
OBJECTIVES: (1) To identify resident and organizational factors associated with the use of advance care plans pre- and post-implementation of the Patient Self-Determination Act (PSDA), and (2) to identify changes (pre- and post-implementation of the PSDA) in the relationship between these factors and the use of advance care plans. DESIGN: Complex, multistage

43. A new minimally invasive technique for cholecystectomy. Subxiphoid "minimal stress triangle": microceliotomy.
OBJECTIVE: The authors devised a minimally invasive technique for cholecystectomy via microceliotomy that provides safety attainable with the open conventional approach and postoperative results comparable to laparoscopic cholecystectomy. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has evolved as a minimally invasive outpatient procedure. Patients

44. Heart disease and hospital deaths: an empirical study.
This study examines the effects of selected characteristics of hospitals and physicians on the mortality rates of heart patients who survive their first day in the hospital. Separate multivariate regression analyses are conducted for three groups: (1) patients who undergo a direct heart revascularization or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) operation; (2)

45. Development, Validation, and Application of PCR Primers for Detection of Tetracycline Efflux Genes of Gram-Negative Bacteria
Phylogenetic analysis of tetracycline resistance genes, which confer resistance due to the efflux of tetracycline from the cell catalyzed by drug:H+ antiport and share a common structure with 12 transmembrane segments (12-TMS), suggested the monophyletic origin of these genes. With a high degree of confidence, this tet subcluster unifies 11 genes encoding te
