Sexual and marital problems in a psychiatric out-patient population.

The study aimed to identify those patients referred to a psychiatric out-patient clinic who had sexual or marital difficulties and who could be offered help with these problems, although none of the patients had been referred primarily for sexual or marital therapy. The methods of assessment formed a series of filtering devices for screening the sample, and possible reasons for discrepancies in the results are discussed. Twelve per cent of the sample had sexual or marital problems and were offered treatment, and it is suggested that this proportion may be an underestimate of the 'true' frequency of such problems in the sample. Implications of this finding for the provision of treatment resources in the psychiatric out-patient setting are considered.

Intercellular contacts between erythroid precursors in the bone marrow in dyserythropoiesis.

The ultrastructure of the cellular interfaces between erythroid precursors has been studied in both congenital and acquired dyserythropoiesis. The types of cell-to-cell contacts found included highly convoluated interdigitating septate-like junctions as well as apparent confluence of the cellular membranes of adjacent erythroid cells. Such findings are not characteristic of the intercellular relationships found in the normal erythroblastic islands. The erythroid plasma membrane modifications are possibly related to the changes in the plasma membranes of erythroid cells known to occur in dyserythropoiesis and their presence may well contribute to the ineffective erythropoiesis with intramedullary cell destruction which characterizes many dyserythropoietic states.
