    Nonpneumonic, short-incubation-period Legionellosis (Pontiac fever) in men who cleaned a steam turbine condenser (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-08-17
    Description: Pontiac fever affected ten men who had cleaned a steam turbine condenser with compressed air. Previous epidemics of Pontiac fever and Legionnaires' disease--both caused by Legionella Pneumophila (proposed sp. nov.)--involved "airborne spread" from air-conditioning cooling towers or evaporative condensers. Aerosols of contaminated water in heat-rejection systems appear to be important sources of epidemic legionellosis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fraser, D W -- Deubner, D C -- Hill, D L -- Gilliam, D K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Aug 17;205(4407):690-1.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/462175" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    On the nature of human interlimb coordination (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-03-09
    Description: Movement time varies as a function of amplitude and requirements for precision, according to Fitts' law, but when subjects perform two-handed movements to targets of widely disparate difficulty they do so simultaneously. The hand moving to an "easy" target moves more slowly to accommodate its "difficult" counterpart, yet both hands reach peak velocity and acceleration synchronously. This result suggests that the brain produces simultaneity of action not by controlling each limb independently, but by organizing functional groupings of muscles that are constrained to act as a single unit.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kelso, J A -- Southard, D L -- Goodman, D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Mar 9;203(4384):1029-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/424729" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Hydroxylase cofactor activity in cerebrospinal fluid of normal subjects and patients with Parkinson's disease (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-05-11
    Description: A method for measuring hydroxylase cofactor activity in human cerebrospinal fluid is described. The hydroxylase cofactor content of cerebrsopinal fluid from Parkinsonian patients is approximately 50 percent that of normal subjects. A significant correlation between hydroxylase cofactor and the concentration of homovanillic acid in the cerebrospinal fluid was observed.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lovenberg, W -- Levine, R A -- Robinson, D S -- Ebert, M -- Williams, A C -- Calne, D B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 May 11;204(4393):624-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/432666" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    N-nitrosamines in the rubber and tire industry (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-09-21
    Description: Airborne N-nitrosomorpholine (0 to 27 micrograms per cubic meter) was found in two of four rubber industry factories. N-Nitrosodimethylamine was also found in two factories, but at lower levels. These findings may be relevant to the reported increased risk of certain types of cancer in rubber workers in some of the same areas where the N-nitrosomorpholine levels were highest.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fajen, J M -- Carson, G A -- Rounbehler, D P -- Fan, T Y -- Vita, R -- Goff, U E -- Wolf, M H -- Edwards, G S -- Fine, D H -- Reinhold, V -- Biemann, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Sep 21;205(4412):1262-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/472741" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A systematic assessment of early African hominids (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-01-26
    Description: A large sample of Pliocene fossil hominid remains has been recovered from the African sites of Hadar in Ethiopia and Laetolil in Tanzania. These collections, dating approximately between 2.9 and 3.8 million years ago, constitute the earliest substantial record of the family Hominidae. This article assesses the phylogenetic relationships of the newly discovered fossil hominids and provides a taxonomy consistent with that assessment. A new taxon, Australopithecus afarensis, has been created to accommodate these Pliocene hominid fossils.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Johanson, D C -- White, T D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jan 26;203(4378):321-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/104384" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Smoking impairs long-term dust clearance from the lung (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-05-04
    Description: The time for the long-term clearance of dust from human lungs was measured. Three heavy cigarette smokers and nine nonsmokers inhaled a harmless trace amount of magnetic dust, Fe3O4. From periodic measurements with a sensitive magnetic detector of the amount of this dust remaining in the lungs, a clearance curve was determined for each subject. This magnetic tracer method allows clearance to be safely followed for a much longer time than with radioactive tracer methods. The dust clearance in the smokers is considerably slower than in the nonsmokers. After about a year, 50 percent of the dust originally deposited remained in the lungs of the smokers whereas only 10 percent remained in the lungs of the nonsmokers. The smokers therefore retained five times more dust than the nonsmokers. This impaired clearance of Fe3O4 suggests impaired clearance in smokers of other dusts, such as toxic occupational and urban dusts. The higher retention of these dusts may contribute to the higher incidence of lung diseases in smokers.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cohen, D -- Arai, S F -- Brain, J D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 May 4;204(4392):514-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/432655" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Mullerian duct regression in the embryo correlated with cytotoxic activity against human ovarian cancer (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-08-31
    Description: A significant cytotoxicity index was obtained when human ovarian cancer cells in a microcytotoxicity assay were exposed during the S (DNA-synthesizing) phase of the cell cycle to purified fractions of testis exhibiting high Mullerian inhibiting substance bioactivity. The same effect was not observed when these fractions were tested against human glioblastoma or fibroblast lines. Most human ovarian cancers are said to resemble Mullerian tissues histologically. Mullerian inhibiting substance may thus deserve further study as a potential chemotherapeutic agent.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Donahoe, P K -- Swann, D A -- Hayashi, A -- Sullivan, M D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Aug 31;205(4409):913-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/472712" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Cerebral specialization, writing posture, and motor control of writing in left-handers (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-09-21
    Description: It has been suggested that the inverted hand position of left-handers during writing indicates the left hemisphere of their brain is linguistically specialized and that the writing of these left-handers may be controlled via ipsilateral pathways. Electroencephalograph alpha asymmetry measures at central and parietal leads, as well as dichotic tests, differentiated right-handers from left-handers, but not inverters from noninverters. Electroencephalograph differences between hand posture groups did appear, but only at occipital leads during reading and writing tasks. Regardless of hand posture or speech lateralization, the right central region of the brain is significantly involved in the control of left-handed writing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Herron, J -- Galin, D -- Johnstone, J -- Ornstein, R E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Sep 21;205(4412):1285-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/472745" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The hypothesis of less direct interaction between hemispheres in young children was supported by a behavioral test. Fabric samples were compared with either the same hand (same hemisphere) or with opposite hands (between hemispheres). Crossed errors were a significantly larger proportion of total errors in 3-year-olds than in 5-year-olds.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Galin, D -- Johnstone, J -- Nakell, L -- Herron, J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jun 22;204(4399):1330-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/451542" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Automatic classification of electroencephalograms: Kullback-Leibler nearest neighbor rules (1979)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1979-07-13
    Description: A prototypic problem in screening of electroencephalograms in the automatic classification of stationary electroencephalogram time series is treated here by the Kullback-Leibler nearest neighbor rule approach. In that problem, the category or state of an individual is classified by comparison of his or her electroencephalogram with those taken from other individuals in the alternative categories. The Kullback-Leibler nearest neighbor classification rules yield a statistically reliable estimate of the smallest possible probability of electroencephalogram misclassification with a relatively small number of labeled sample electroencephalograms. The automatic classification of anesthesia levels L1 and L3, respectively the anesthesia levels insufficient and sufficient for deep surgery, is treated by machine computation on the electroencephalogram alone.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gersch, W -- Martinelli, F -- Yonemoto, J -- Low, M D -- Mc Ewan, J A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1979 Jul 13;205(4402):193-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/451587" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
