Radiologic appearance of viral disease of the lower respiratory tract in infants and children.

The radiologic findings in 123 hospitalized children with viral disease of the respiratory tract due to adenovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza, influenza, measles, or herpes virus were retrospectively reviewed. Bronchial wall thickening, peribronchial shadowing and/or associated perihilar streaking were present in 107 cases. Patchy pulmonary shadowing thought to reflect disease at a sublobular or lobular level was present in 72 cases, while areas of coalescent more homogeneous pulmonary shadowing were present in only 20 cases. In general the pulmonary abnormalities were widespread; on the average, two to three lobes demonstrated abnormal pulmonary findings. Poorly defined small pulmonary nodules, while radiologically unimpressive, were noted in 49 cases. Air trapping was observed in 61 cases. Hilar adenopathy was seen in only four cases and was unimpressive. There was a striking absence of pleural effusion, pneumothorax, pneumatocele, and lung abscess in the patients examined.

MMPI profiles from adolescent medical patients.

In order to examine the age changes that occur in adolescent medical patients, MMPI scale scores of 659 females and 534 males, ages 15 through 19 years, were examined. Descriptive data are presented separately by sex, with comparative data provided by other researchers. Age and sex differences were evaluated by two-way analysis of variance. Results suggest that adolescent medical patients differ from other adolescents in much the same way that adult medical patients differ from the general adult population.

Comparison of MMPI scores of pregnant women and female medical patients.

The MMPIs of 94 women who were in the first trimester of pregnancy were compared with the MMPIs of 1,690 female medical patients who were between 20 and 29 years old. Pregnant women obtained significantly lower scores on indices of subjective distress, somatic complaints, and general maladjustment. They obtained significantly higher scores on the Ego Strength scale, which reflects good psychological adjustment. The interpretation of Hooke and Marks (1962) that pregnancy is a period of good psychological adjustment and emotional health is supported.

Psychologic evaluation of impotent men.

Psychologic evaluations have been performed as part of the screening process on men who were candidates for surgical implantation of the inflatable penile prosthesis. Goals and methods of evaluation are discussed, with special attention to the use of interview and psychologic test results. Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory profiles that suggest a psychogenic basis for impotence are presented and discussed.
