A study of changes in whole-body calcium, phosphorus, sodium and nitrogen by neutron activation analysis in vivo in rats on a calcium-deficient diet.

1. A method of measuring changes in the total body content of calcium, phosphorus, nitrogen and sodium in rats by activation analysis in vivo is described. 2. The change in the body content of the elements has been measured in rats on a calcium-deficient diet and in control animals, the body nitrogen being used to represent lean body mass for normalization. 3. There were siginificant differences in Ca/N and P/N but not in Ca/P ratios between the animals on a deficient diet and control animals at the end of the dietary period.

A high sensitivity dual-detector shadow-shield whole-body counter with an 'invariant' response for total body in vivo neutron activation analysis.

The development of a dual-detector shadow-shield whole-body counting system of high sensitivity is described. The sensitivity and performance of the counter are analysed, with specific references to total body in vivo neutron activation analysis, and shown to be at least comparable with those of many conventional shielded-room counters.

Mental health day units: users' views.

This article describes clients' perspectives on psychiatric day care units in an area in the South of England. The results of a small-scale research project show that clients from different localities have similar perspectives and feelings about the units. It is demonstrated that, in the clients' view, the units achieve many of their aims and fulfil needs that supersede the initial purpose.
