[Diagnosis of the irritable colon: manometric and myoelectric investigations (author's transl)].

Manometric investigations of patients with irritable colon show an undisturbed cyclic course of interdigestive motility studies of the rectosigmoid in patients with irritable colon show a spectrum of variable frequency of slow membrane potential changes with predominance of a frequency of 3/min. In addition, after a 1000 calorie test meal, patients with irritable colon showed a significantly prolonged increase of motility. As functional disturbances of irritable colon are mainly diagnosed by exclusion of organic changes, further development and rational use of colonic myoelectric methods promises future possibilities for objective diagnosis and control of treatment.

"Totality"--right or wrong: the totality trilogy.

Totality, or the concept that all evidence that may bear on a given case should be considered together in issuing a decision, has been applied inconsistently by the National Labor Relations Board, particularly with regard to three types of cases: "good faith doubt" cases, those involving employer statements made during a union election campaign, and employee discharge cases. In the following article, the author examines cases that demonstrate how the Board has vacillated in its application of the totality principle.
