Helminths of sympatric populations of kangaroo rats (Dipodomys ordii) and grasshopper mice (Onychomys leucogaster) from the high plains of eastern New Mexico.

During a 1-yr period 124 Dipodomys ordii and 92 Onychomys leucogaster were trapped from the same locality and were examined for helminths. Only 1 cestode species (Catenotaenia linsdalei) was recovered from D. ordii, whereas O. leucogaster was infected with 2 nematoda (Litomosoides carinii, Mastophorus muris), 2 cestoda (Hymenolepis citelli, and 1 unknown), and 1 acanthocephalan (Moniliformis clarki) species. All represent new host and distribution records.

Analysis of childhood pedestrian deaths in New Mexico, 1986-1990.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To determine if the mechanism of fatal childhood pedestrian injuries correlated with location, injury pattern, and age of the pedestrian and to determine ethnic differences in fatality rates. DESIGN: Retrospective review of state medical investigator reports and autopsies from 1986 to 1990. Logistic regression and chi 2 were used to test for statistically significant differences between the groups in our data set. TYPE OF PARTICIPANTS: New Mexican children, 0 to 14 years old fatally injured by moving vehicles. RESULTS: Sixty-four children died for an overall fatality rate of 3.8 (per 100,000). Native American children and children younger than 5 years experienced the highest fatality rates. Children younger than 5 years were more likely to be crushed under the wheels of a slow-moving vehicle in both a nontraffic and a traffic location, whereas older children were found more often to have died from injuries from a high-speed impact event in a traffic location (P < .001). Leg fractures (P = .001) and spinal fractures (P = .02) occurred more frequently in impact than crush injuries. CONCLUSION: Young children are at risk for a crush injury in both the traffic and nontraffic environment.
