Expression of anger as a function of assertiveness and sex.

Examined differences between asserters and nonasserters and between the sexes on anger expression. Thirty-seven male and 53 female college students were administered the College Self-Expression Scale, the Buss Durkee Hostility Inventory, and the Anger Self-Report. As hypothesized, asserters and males expressed more anger and aggression, and nonasserters experienced more covert anger. The clinical/treatment implications of these findings were discussed. A finding discrepant with previous research and the present researchers' expectations, that men scored higher than women on guilt and condemnation of anger, was thought to reflect this study's sample rather than an actual population difference.

In vitro susceptibility of El Tor and classical Vibrio cholerae strains to trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole.

Trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole were tested individually and in combination against El Tor and classical biotype strains of Vibrio cholerae. Determinations of the minimal inhibitory concentration in liquid media and by an agardilution method showed that classical strains were uniformly more resistant to sulfamethoxazole than were El Tor strains. In agar-dilution studies, trimethoprim was equally active against both biotypes. Combination of the agents produced a synergistic action against all strains tested. Testing for susceptibility to sulfonamide is suggested as a possible method for differentiating between El Tor and classical biotypes of V. cholerae.

Merkel cell carcinoma.

A rare, primary, malignant carcinoma of the skin exists of which the Merkel cell has been implicated as the cell of origin. Until recently, reports of this cancer were sparse. A review of the literature is presented along with a case report in which the primary tumor occurred on the lower leg.

Congenital convex pes valgus.

Congenital convex pes valgus is a rigid flatfoot deformity that may or may not be symptomatic. The authors describe the anatomical, clinical, and radiographic appearance and various methods of treatment. It may be asymptomatic in children, but early detection is important because delay in reduction can adversely affect results. Failure to diagnose and treat properly may lead to disabling deformity.
