A condition commonly seen after motor vehicle accidents is studied. This is the "late whiplash" syndrome, which is defined as a collection of symptoms and disabilities seen more than six months after a neck injury occurring in a motor vehicle accident. A series of 300 cases is examined. With the ...

Cytoplasmic preparations obtained from late blastulae and early gastrulae of normal R. pipiens eggs contain factors which induce delayed lethal effects when injected into normal eggs at the beginning of cleavage. The same preparations can rescue some defective eggs which occur spontaneously (NS eggs), or are produced experimentally (ES eggs), ...

A polygraphic study performed on 184 patients with late post-traumatic encephalic syndromes has shown marked nervous reactivity disturbances. The disturbances, estimated by testing for the electrographic components of the orienting reflex elicited by a repetitive auditory stimulus and for their habituation, were expressed by alterations in the intensity, resistance to ...

A 28-year-old man had recurrent episodes of amaurosis fugax of eight years' duration and had a congenital, late systolic mitral insufficiency murmur with the characteristics of the midsystolic click, late systolic murmur syndrome. The ophthalmologist must consider the clinical entity of the midsystolic click, late systolic murmur syndrome in the ...

Left ventricular function, as measured by systolic time intervals, was studied in 30 subjects with the syndrome of midsystolic click and late systolic murmur (ages, 20 to 53 years; mean, 34 +/- 9 years). Twenty-one were asymptomatic, six had chest pain, two had palpitations, one had shortness of breath, and ...

An 11-year-old girl with karyotype 45,X/46,X,dic(X) (Xqter leads to p22::p22 leads to qter) is presented. The abnormal X is always found to be the inactive and late replicating X, and according to previous investigations by Therman et al. (1974) part of the cells are seen to have bipartite Barr bodies.

A patient with the prolapsed mitral valve syndrome may have no symptoms referable to the heart or, at the other extreme, may have disabling chest pain, severe arrhythmias, and electrocardiographic abnormalities. The syndrome is characterized by a midsystolic click and a late systolic murmur. The mechanism responsible for the valve ...

The averaged photic-evoked responses (APER) and their dispersion pattern (DP) were investigated in tired subjects, neurotics and patients with neurotic syndromes. The appearance of an ample late negative deflection (N3) followed by a deep positive one (P3) of APER and of an atypical DP in tired subjects, neurotics and in ...

A thirty-five-year-old woman with Noonan's syndrome (Turner phenotype with normal chromosome pattern) had mitral valve prolapse and mitral insufficiency associated with the auscultatory findings of a midsystolic click and late systolic murmur. Selective left-ventricular angiocardiography also showed eccentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle. To our knowledge, this is the first ...

Right ventriculography was used to assess the tricuspid valve in 61 patients with systolic murmur-click syndrome. Systolic murmurs were present in 47 cases, and 32 had clicks. Mitral valve prolapse was present in 52 patients. Late systolic prolapse of the tricuspid valve was demonstrated in 32 patients (52.4%). In 9 ...

A 60 year old woman is presented who had the mid-systolic click, late systolic murmur syndrome, documented by phonocardiogram and left ventricular angiography. During an episode of non-anginal chest pain, advanced heart block was demonstrated and permanent transvenous pacemaker therapy was subsequently instituted. The association of the mid-systolic click, late ...
