The E-flat hand.

The disability suffered by a professional pianist because of difficulty in carrying out certain of the finger movement sequences involved in playing in the key of E flat appeared to be caused by limitation of independent flexion movements between the index and long fingers of his right hand. The range of independent movement of the fingers was considerably increased, with relief of his disability, by dividing the intertendinous connection between the extensor tendons of the two fingers on the dorsum of the hand.

Rare occurrence of Addison's disease and diabetes mellitus in children.

We report on two children with both Addison's disease and diabetes mellitus, a rare occurrence in children. One of the children first developed Addison's disease and later developed diabetes mellitus, while the other had the onset of diabetes mellitus first and later Addison's disease. In the latter patient a direct relationship was shown between the insulin dose and adrenal cortical hormone. Organ-specific antibody studies are reported and the diagnosis and management of these combined endocrinopathies are discussed.

The effects of vasectomy on spermatogenesis in the dog, Canis Familaris: a meiotic analysis.

It was observed (1) that reversible meiotic changes did in fact take place following vasectomy, as evidenced by the changing profile of the various stages of meiosis, resulting in a spermatogenic arrest accompanied by a drop in the frequency of mature spermatids and depletion of spermiocytes. (2) By 15 weeks postvasectomy, repair had progressed from the earlier meiotic stages, with a return to the normal, control, meiotic distribution. (3) The time from the observation of degenerative changes to the restoration of control values, according to our data, was approximately 100 days.
