Kestle, John R. W.; Brockmeyer, Douglas Lee | Cranial base strategies for resection of craniopharyngioma in children | The optimal treatment of craniopharyngioma in children remains a challenge. The use of complete excision to minimize recurrence continues to be controversial because of the risk of postoperative morbidity and death. Advances in skull base approaches, modern microsurgical techniques, neuroimaging, an... | Craniopharyngioma; Surgical approach; Skull base surgery | 2005 |

Varner, Michael W.; Digre, Kathleen B. | Cranial magnetic resonance imaging in eclampsia. | Although the precise neuropathologic basis for eclamptic convulsions remains unclear, intracranial hemorrhage is frequently associated with fatal cases. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a recently developed neuroimaging technique that appears superior to other processes for defining intracranial ... | Eclampsia; Brain Edema; Cranial Magnetic Resonance Imaging | 1987-09 |

Couldwell, William T. | Cranioplasty with the Medpor porous polyethylene Flexblock implant | The authors describe the use of a porous polyethylene Flexblock implant for cosmetic cranioplasty. The implant may be used to cover any small- or medium-sized (< 8 cm) cranial defect, offering similar cosmetic results to standard alloplast cranioplasty while decreasing operation time. The porous i... | Cranioplasty; Medpor; Alloplast; Polyethylene; Skull defect | 1994 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Critical role of tissue angiotensin-converting enzyme as revealed by gene targeting in mice | Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) generates the vasoconstrictor angiotensin II, which plays a critical role in maintenance of blood pressure in mammals. Although significant ACE activity is found in plasma, the majority of the enzyme is bound to tissues such as the vascular endothelium. We used ta... | Blood pressure; ACE activity; Enzyme | 1997-03-06 |

Herrmann, Mark G.; Durtschi, Jacob; Bromley, L. Kathryn; Voelkerding, Karl V. | Cross platform comparison of melting curve analysis | Melting analysis of PCR product was first performed on the LightCycler 10 years ago. Now, melting analysis is a standard function on all real-time PCR instruments. Recent advances in DNA melting analysis, including high resolution melting and specialized dyes, have increased the capabilities of melt... | PCR; SNP; SYBR Green I; LC Green Plus; high-resolution melting; mutation scanning; amplicon genotyping | 2005-11-04 |

Florsheim, Paul W. | Cross-cultural views of self in the treatment of mental illness: disentangling the curative aspects of myth from the mythic aspects of cure | THIS paper compares Eastern and Western concepts of self within the context of the healing process. I draw upon the work of Sudhir Kakar and Heinz Kohut to illustrate differences in how mental illness is expressed and treated in India and the United States. I propose that cultural variances in the w... | | 1990 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Krapcho, Karen J.; Talbot, Phil; Thulin, Craig | Crystallization of the MS2 translational repressor alone and complexed to bromouridine | The coat protein from the MS2 bacteriophage plays a dual role by encapsidating viral RNA and also by binding RNA as a translational repressor. In order to study the isolated dimer in a conformation not influenced by capsid interactions, a mutant molecule was crystallized that is defective in capsid ... | Crystallization; RNA Bacteriophage; RNA Hairpin; Translational Repressor | 1995 |

Digre, Kathleen B. | CT and hemifacial spasm. | Forty-six patients with typical hemifacial spasm had CT. Thirty-eight (83%) were abnormal, including two with surgically documented tumors. Thirty-six had a characteristic dolichoectatic vertebrobasilar artery, with the convexity pointing to the side of the spasm in 92% of the scans.
