Massive hemoptysis. Review of 123 cases.

PubMed (1983)

A A Conlan S S Hurwitz L. Krige N. Nicolaou R. Pool

Case histories of 123 patients with massive hemoptysis were reviewed. The causes of hemorrhage were active pulmonary tuberculosis (47), bronchiectasis (37), chronic necrotizing pneumonia (11), lung abscess (six), lung cancer (six), bronchovascular fistula (five), primary pulmonary fungal infection (four), and miscellaneous (seven). Conservative management was used in 66 patients, with 21 deaths (31.8%). Surgical management was used in 34 patients, with six deaths (17.6%). Endobronchial iced saline lavage was used in 23 patients, with one death. All patients treated by lavage stopped bleeding, and further therapy, either surgical (five) or medical (18), was given as appropriate. The early control of tracheobronchial hemorrhage by endoscopic means is an effective though transitory holding procedure. The unpredictability of massive hemoptysis is underscored by eight deaths from sudden, engulfing hemorrhage in seemingly stable patients awaiting endoscopy or operation.

Late management of penetrating oesophageal injury. Case reports.

PubMed (1983)

M Schein R. Pool A A Conlan

Two cases of oesophageal perforation at the thoracic inlet, due to penetrating trauma, are described. In the first case the diagnosis was established 2 weeks after injury; the second case was diagnosed within 30 hours, was treated unsuccessfully and referred to us 1 month after injury. The management of these severely ill patients is discussed. Defunctioning of the oesophagus was necessary in both cases, and later reconstruction was carried out in one of the patients.

Changes in Photosynthesis, Stomatal Resistance and Abscisic Acid of Vitis Labruscana Through Drought and Irrigation Cycles

American Journal of Enology and Viticulture (1978)

Wentao Liu R. Pool W. Wenkert P. E. Kriedemann

Concord grapevines ( Vitis labruscana ) grown in pots under natural climate fluctuations were followed through drought and irrigation cycles to study the changes in abscisic and phaseic acid and the effect on stomatal and photosynthetic activity. When leaf water potential reached -16 bars, stomatal closure was essentially complete (15 to 25 sec•cm -1 ), and photosynthesis was minimal (1 to 5 mg CO 2 dm -2 hr -l ). Small pot grapevines had a prehistory of mild, repetitive, water stresses which, relative to the large pots, was associated with lower photosynthesis rate at light saturation (26 compared to 32 mg CO 2 dm -2 hr -1 ), and higher abscisic acid (0.33 compared to 0.14 mg kg -1 fresh weight) and hydrolyzable abscisic acid (0.14 compared to 0.04 mg kg -1 fresh weight). A prolonged (more than two weeks) and/or severe stress (leaf water potential less than -16 bars) led to large increase of ABA content (2.5 mg kg -1 ) and incomplete recovery of photosynthetic potential despite reopening of stomata on restoring plant water status for rewatering. The plant water status of grape leaves affects stomatal opening and thus photosynthesis. With increasing water stress other biochemical processes become affected such as an increase in abscisic acid.

Documentation for FY2003 BTS GPRA Metrics

Donna J. Hostick David B. Belzer Katherine A. Cort J.A. Dirks R. Pool

PNNL estimated the FY2003 energy, environmental, and financial benefits (i.e., metrics) of the technologies and practices in the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Office of Building Technology, State and Community Programs (BTS). BTS uses the estimates of benefits as part of its annual budget request. This report includes an overview of the analytical approaches used to estimate energy savings for the FY2003 appropriated budget for BTS. The report also includes descriptions of key assumptions and the methodology that is used to calculate energy savings estimates for each BTS program.
