Rehabilitation of the coronary patient.

52 out of 56 patients with myocardial infarction completed a 6-week rehabilitation programme. The exercise programme started on the second day of admission and continued during the patient's stay in hospital and for 6 weeks thereafter, with weekly attendances at the hospital. All the patients were assessed monthly by a coronary rehabilitation team. 77% of the patients went back to work in an average time of 9.5 weeks after onset of the infarction; 61% went to their original jobs and 16% had to modify their jobs. The approximate hospital cost per patient for the complete course was 11.33 pounds.

Uropygial gland alkane diol diesters in the Kn mutation of the domestic chicken.

Uropygial glands from chickens which are known to have the Kn gene secrete qualitatively the same types of alkane diol diesters as the normal domestic chicken. However, there are many significant differences in the mole percent of individual fatty acids and diols within the diester between the two genetic types of chickens. In general, the mutant chickens have lesser amounts of the shorter chain fatty acids and diols and greater amounts of the longer chain fatty acids and diols. There is also a gene dosage effect with two mutant genes having a greater effect in many cases than a single mutant gene.
