Cystic lesions of conjunctiva.

Cystic lesions constituted 37% of all the conjunctival specimens received over a period of 6 1/2 years. Epithelial inclusion cysts were the most common, followed by dermoid and parasitic cysts. A clinicopathologic correlation, along with an attempt at classification of cystic lesions of conjunctiva, is made in this article.

Reproduction rate and viability of Merino, Nilagiri and halfbred Merino. I. Fertility, prolificacy and viability.

Lambing records from 482 Merino ewes, 533 Nilagiri ewes and 192 halfbred Merino ewes were used to estimate the number of ewes lambing per ewe inseminated, number of lambs born per ewe lambing, number of lambs weaned per lamb born and number of ewe lambs reaching joining age per ewe lamb weaned. Adult viability was studied by following through the life of 385 Merino ewes, 192 Nilagiri ewes and 61 halfbred ewes in the breeding flock from one and a half to seven and a half years of age. The genetic groups differed significantly for all the reproductive traits but not for adult viability. Lower values of number of ewes lambing per ewe inseminated compared to the number weaned and the number reaching joining age indicate that infertility and embryonic mortality were the main sources of loss.

Reproduction rate and viability of Merino, Nilagiri and halfbred Merino. II. Age specific replacement rate and net reproduction rate.

Age specific replacement rate, net reproduction rate and intrinsic rate of population increase were estimated from records over a period of 11 years of Merino, Nilagiri and halfbreds. On an average for every 1000 ewes mated 830 ewes lambed, 917 lambs were born, 898 lambs were weaned and 422 ewe lambs survived to joining age (one and a half years) in Nilagiri sheep. The corresponding figures were 665, 685, 590 and 228 in Merino and 664, 709, 691 and 341 in halfbreds. Nilagiri ewes in intermediate ages had more multiple births and older ewes weaned more lambs. The flock strength was not maintained unless the ewes were kept till the fifth lambing in Merino, third lambing in Nilagiri and fourth lambing in halfbred Merino. These results along with the culling levels indicated that the low reproductive efficiency in halfbreds may not be critical enough to avoid introduction of Merino for improvement in productivity. However, the poor reproductive efficiency of the Merino in this country may necessitate repeat importations of Merino rams for production of halfbreds.

Redefined role of radiation in combined treatment of Ewing's sarcoma.

Eighty-six patients with Ewing's sarcoma were analyzed as to the role of radiation therapy. Fifty-eight patients (P group) had removal of the involved part of the bone after preoperative chemotherapy, and 28 (NP group) had local treatment either at the same time or before chemotherapy. Thirty-six of 58 P-group patients (61%) and 13 of the 28 NP-group patients (48%) are alive. Five of 48 patients in P-group, who had postoperative radiation, had local recurrence, as did 6 of 11 without postoperative radiation, a statistically significant difference (p = 0.001).
