Speech and language characteristics of genetic syndromes.

A series of tables is presented as a diagnostic aid for the clinician when presented with a client who has a genetic syndrome. Information is provided on physical features, inheritance pattern, incidence rate, speech and language characteristics, and references. The speech and language clinician is cautioned that there is great variation of expression in genetic syndromes. However, the tables can be used to find those characteristics identified in the literature as manifested in a particular genetic syndrome.

Radiation dose to critical organs of staff and patients during neuroradiology.

The doses delivered to some critical organs of patients and staff during cerebral angiography, X-ray computer assisted tomographic scanning and 99Tcm brain scanning have been measured or assessed. The results show that doses received by staff and by the patients' gonads are generally quite low. However, patients having two or more of the investigations could receive skin and orbit doses in excess of 25 rad.

Multiple forms of elongation factor 1 from calf brain.

Heavy and light forms of elongation factor 1 (EF-1) from calf brain have been partially purified. The heterogeneous heavy species (EF-1(H)) with molecular weights of 2.5 x 10(5) to over 1 x 10(6) appears to be a complex or aggregate of the light form of the enzyme (EF-1(L)); the latter has a molecular weight of between 50,000 and 60,000. EF-1(H) but not EF-1(L), contains significant amounts of free and esterified cholesterol. Although EF-1(H) and EF-1(L) are both active in aminoacyl-tRNA binding to ribosomes, EF-1(L) reacts with GTP and aminoacyl-tRNA more efficiently than EF-1(H).
