The SWAL-QOL outcomes tool was constructed for use in clinical research for patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia. The SWAL-QOL was constructed a priori to enable preliminary psychometric analyses of items and scales before its final validation. This article describes data analysis from a pretest of the SWAL-QOL. We evaluated the different domains of the SWAL-QOL for respondent burden, data quality, item variability, item convergent validity, internal consistency reliability as measured by Cronbach's alpha, and range and skewness of scale scores upon aggregation and floor and ceiling effects. The item reduction techniques outlined reduced the SWAL-QOL from 185 to 93 items. The pretest of the SWAL-QOL afforded us the opportunity to select items for the ongoing validation study which optimally met our a priori psychometric criteria of high data quality, normal item distributions, and robust evidence of item convergent validity.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

In the past two decades, noteworthy advances have been made in measuring the physiologic outcomes of dysphagia, including measurement of duration of structure and bolus movements, stasis, and penetration–aspiration. However, there is a paucity of data on health outcomes from the patients' perspective, such as quality of life and patient satisfaction. A patient-based, dysphagia-specific outcomes tool is needed to enhance information on treatment variations and treatment effectiveness. We present the conceptual foundation and item generation process for the SWAL-QOL, a quality of life and quality of care outcomes tool under development for dysphagia researchers and clinicians.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: SYNOPSIS. Phylogenetic relations are ultimately determined by homologous relationships, including both structural and functional data. Following the establishment of those relationships, the direction of evolutionary change must be determined using paleontologic, developmental, and especially morphocline, data. From that perspective the direction of subsequent development becomes clearer and the problems of origins become more explicit.Using the foregoing methodology it has been possible to identify plausibly monophyletic groups of animal protists or protozoa. Allowing for attendant difficulties, there nevertheless emerges certain fairly convincing generalities: (a) the predominantly pseudopodial forms, with a few minor exceptions, have direct origins from apochlorotic algae; (b) the predominantly kinetidal forms (zooflagellates and ciliates), though also derived originally from apochlorotic algae, give evidence of extended evolutionary development with the especially noteworthy emergence of a permanent ingestatory structure; (c) both groups have increased size, a tendency towards multinuclearity and polyploidy, cytoplasmic differentiations of various sorts, and complex life cycles.In terms of further evolution, namely the emergence of multicellular animals, the pseudopodial forms are almost certainly a dead end while the kinetidal forms are arguably the ancestors of at least 2 metazoan phyla.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1972Staff ViewISSN: 1752-1688Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: Architecture, Civil Engineering, SurveyingGeographyNotes: Two lakes having similar soil types were studied to determine the effects of age and water fluctuations on plankton, benthos and fish populations. Bluff Lake is an older man-made lake which is drawn down in the mid-summer. Oktibbeha County Lake is a young lake and the water levels are maintained. Chemistry data from the two lakes indicate that their chemical properties are very similar. Neither lake would be considered very fertile.Net plankton populations in Bluff Lake and Oktibbeha County Lake were comparable when analyzed on a number of organisms per liter basis. Fluctuations of water levels did not seem to have an effect on the net plankton populations.The benthic population in Bluff Lake is slightly higher than that found in Oktibbeha County Lake. This is true for both numbers and weight per square meter. The species composition of benthic organisms in the two lakes were similar.Based on one-acre samples from each lake, Bluff Lake has a more balanced fish population than does Oktibbeha County Lake. Neither, however, seems to support populations of game fish in which a high percentage of these are in the available or harvestable range. Both lakes contain high populations of gizzard shad.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: Paramecium aurelia cells were exposed to N-methyl-N-nitroso-N′-nitroguanidine for periods of 15–30 min. The lethality in homozygous clones derived from treated cells depends on the time of treatment within the cell cycle. Exposures at interfission ages 0.04, 0.40, and 0.80 were tested yielding lethalities of 12.5, 44 and 2%, respectively. These results correlate with the period of DNA synthesis in the micronuclei. A temperature sensitive mutant has been found which cannot live at 31 C but divides at ∼1 fission per day at 19 and 25 C. The rise in temperature from 19–25 C does not significantly change the fission rate whereas in normal cells it would be doubled. Genetic analysis shows that this mutation is caused by a single recessive gene.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1969Staff ViewISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: SYNOPSIS. Conjugation in Paramecium aurelia has been studied in live and sectioned cells and oral development studied following ultraviolet microbeam irradiation. The live cells allow a clear correlation to be made between nuclear behavior and gullet development. The paroral cone lies at the level of the buccal overture. The new oral area develops while the old one is still present, the latter structure being still visible after the conjugants have separated. Sectioned material confirms the fact of cytoplasmic fusion at the level of the paroral cones. It also confirms the appearance of new buccal organelles on the right side of the buccal overture of the pre-existing gullet. Ultraviolet microbeam irradiation of the buccal area shows that the posterior edge of the buccal overture must remain undisturbed for normal development. Irradiation of the anterior edge of the buccal overture also affects development. These results differ from earlier work on fissioning cells. Discussion of these differences leads to the conclusion that the factors controlling stomatogenesis are developmentally regulatory.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 1977Staff ViewISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: SYNOPSIS. Paramecium aurelia syngen 4, stock 57 (sensitive) cultivated in Cerophyl infusion were exposed to cytochalasin B CB and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), the solvent for CB, to distinguish between the effects of these agents on a cellular system. DMSO significantly inhibited survival, fission rate, [3H]leucine incorporation, and cell size. CB-treated cells generally had slower division and poorer survival rates than cells exposed to the equivalent DMSO concentration, although the [3H]leucine incorporation was generally greater at the lower CB concentrations than for DMSO alone. As seen by electron microscopy and a new grycerination technic for observing polysomes, DMSO caused nuclear (nucleolar, chromatin) abnormalities as well as membrane degradation and polysomal breakdown; CB caused the formation of aberrant membrane structures and ribosomal tetramers, crystals, and tubes.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1550-7408Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: BiologyNotes: SYNOPSIS. A leptomonad zooflagellate infecting the macronucleus of Paramecium trichium is described. The cell body of Leptomonas karyophilus n. sp. is 5μ long and the flagellum is 12μ long. There is a central ovoid nucleus, a bar-shaped kinetoplast and a contractile vacuole. The flagellate undergoes division in the macronucleus, proliferating there until it has killed its host. Mildly infected paramecia are able to divide and if fed regularly can be maintained carrying the parasite. Cross infections with P. caudatum, P. bursaria and P. aurelia were successful to varying degrees.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
