...virus was that of Stewart-Eddy polyoma, named for N.I.H.'s Drs. Sarah Stewart and Bernice Eddy (TIME, July 27). Team members stripped the protein overcoat from the virus particles to get the nuclear content. This proved to be a form of deoxyribonucleic acid, which has an enormously complex structure with a molecular weight of 2,000,000 or more...
...Some of the upper belt's periodic fluctuations can be charged to storms on the sun, which usually last a matter of days. But Drs. Alan Rosen, T. A. Farley and C. P. Sonett of Space Technology Laboratories, Los Angeles, analyzed radioed reports from U.S. satellite Explorer VI, found that at 30,000 miles above the earth the intensity of the radiation some times increased a hundredfold in a few seconds, then dropped back almost as swiftly. They offered no explanation...
Every would-be psychoanalyst, whether physician or not, must submit himself to a "didactic" or training analysis before he can qualify. And even with professional discount, the analysis comes high: average, $20 five times a week for three years. Two psychiatrists, Drs. Arnold Namrow of Washington and Jay Cohen Maxwell of Houston, argued that they ought to be able to deduct these couch costs from their taxable income as either a business expense or a medical service. Last week the U.S. Tax Court ruled against them. The training analysis, it held, is part of the curriculum for which budding analysts...
Commonest cause of death in these cases, they found, was blocking of a pulmonary artery by a traveling blood clot that had developed in the leg veins. This often undetectable process killed 40%-50% of patients over 50, who died after fractures of the leg, thigh or pelvis. So Drs. Simon Sevitt and Nrall G. Gallagher took 300 consecutive admissions of patients over 55 with broken thighs, and treated half of them with the anticoagulant phenindione to see whether it would prevent blood clotting and the fatal lung damage...
...Drs. Victoria P. Coffey and William J. E. Jessop followed the histories of 1,326 women at three Dublin hospitals, half of whom had Asian flu while pregnant. Of 663 flu victims, 639 had normal babies while 24 had malformed children. Among an equal number of women who escaped flu, 653 had normal babies and only ten lad malformed children. There was no notable difference in the number of still or premature births. The malformations, concentrated among the women who had had flu in the first three months of pregnancy, were mainly in the central nervous system and included...
