178. Benign Postmenopausal Vaginal Bleeding

Author

Paloucek, Frank P., Graham, John B., and Randall, Clyde L.

Abstract

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the frequency with which carcinoma, both genital and extragenital, would eventually develop in women with benign postmenopausal bleeding. A total of 1,257 such women and an equal number of matched controls were available for study and observed for ten to 40 years after their initial visit. Ten study and ten control patients were lost to follow-up. The conclusions drawn from the results of follow-up indicate there is a small chance that gynecologic carcinoma will develop in these women at some time in the future but cancer of all sites will develop more frequently in them than in women who do not experience postmenopausal bleeding.

179. Forest Fuel and Fire Dynamics in Mixed-oak Forests of Southeastern Ohio

Author

Graham, John B.

Subjects
Quercus, Litter, Coarse woody debris, Silviculture, Fire ecology, Thinning, Hardwood forests
Abstract

In eastern deciduous forests, prescribed fire and thinning are used as tools for a variety of management goals, including altering fuel loads. The specific effects of these treatments on fuel dynamics are relatively unknown in mixed-oak forests. Likewise, specific fire behavior from fuel load and moisture is relatively unknown in these ecosystems. First, I examine the dynamics of multiple classes of fuels, from litter and duff to large, coarse woody debris, three-years following thinning and prescribed fire. Fine fuels recovered rapidly following treatments, while larger, sound fuels continue to exhibit effects of thinning. Second, I manipulate fuel loads and fuel moisture levels in a common garden, trial burn experiment. Fires burned hotter with elevated fuel loads or decreased fuel moisture. My results can be used collectively to predict the effects of silvicultural treatments on future prescribed fires, and provide a realistic baseline for fuel loading and fire behavior models.

184. HEMOPHILIA

Author

Graham, John B.

Abstract

TO THE EDITOR: —I have read with interest the comments of Dr. Armand J. Quick (J. A. M. A. 154:1024 [March 20] 1954) regarding the paper "Newer Approaches to the Study of Hemophilia and the Hemophilioid States" published earlier by my associates and myself in The Journal (154:481 [Feb. 6] 1954). Dr. Quick's views are so very different from ours and carry so much authority that I feel compelled to reply. In the following paragraphs I will paraphrase Dr. Quick's main points, for brevity, and reply seriatim.Dr. Quick points out that our paper confirms his previous observations that (a) the severity of hemophilia varies, (b) the clotting time may be normal in mild cases, and (c) the AHF level remains fairly constant in a given patient. Neither Dr. Quick nor we should stake claims of original observation with regard to either points (a) or (b). Both H.
