Abstract
A large pedigree was ascertained through cases of early myocardial infarction. High density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoproteins A-I and A-II were measured on family members. Likelihood analysis, using the polygenic/major gene mixed model, provided no evidence that major loci play a role in determining the levels of any of the three measurements. Heritability estimates, assuming polygenic inheritance, were 0.59 and 0.26 for HDL-C level and A-II level, respectively. No evidence of genetic transmission of A-I level was found.

Abstract
The rate of sodium-lithium countertransport (SLC flux) across red cell membranes has been reported to be elevated in hypertensive persons and their relatives as compared to normotensive individuals without family histories of hypertension. We have investigated the inheritance of this trait in 434 persons from 10 kindreds. Relatives show positive correlation of SLC flux values, but there is no spouse-spouse correlation. Pedigree analysis favors a model of polygenic inheritance over models of major-gene inheritance. Major-gene index statistics and offspring-between-parent statistics provide similar results. The proportion of total phenotypic variance that is attributable to polygenic differences between persons is estimated at 71%. The SLC flux values of hypertensive persons in this study population are lower than those reported from Boston, but are similar to those reported from Europe. We found a broad overlap of SLC flux values for hypertensive and normotensive persons. We conclude that SLC flux probably is not useful as a preclinical marker for essential hypertension.

Abstract
Sodium-lithium countertransport (SLC), sodium-potassium cotransport (CoT), and ouabain binding to sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na, K-ATPase) sites were measured on fresh erythrocytes from hypertensive and normotensive Utah subjects with and without a first-degree relative with hypertension. SLC was measured as Li+ efflux into NaCl and MgCl2 media from Li+-loaded cells (5-7 mM). CoT was measured by monitoring Na+ and K+ efflux from cells loaded to 20-30 mM Na+ and 20-30 mMK+. Ouabain binding was determined for fresh cells using 3H-ouabain. Subjects were selected from pedigrees that showed a prevalence of hypertension. SLC was significantly elevated in 26.5% of the hypertensive subjects (p less than 0.001) as well as in 12.8% of the normotensives with a hypertensive first-degree relative (p less than 0.05). Although elevated SLC and decreased CoT have previously been associated with hypertension, no hypertensive subject in this study exhibited both abnormalities. All subjects with elevated SLC had normal CoT. A positive correlation between SLC and CoT was observed. Few hypertensive subjects (11.8%) had decreased CoT. In the majority of subjects studied, both SLC and CoT were normal: hypertensives 61.8%, normotensives with a hypertensive first-degree relative 61.7%, and other normotensives 58.7%. The number of ouabain-binding sites was not significantly altered among hypertensives, or their relatives, even though there was a positive correlation between SLC and the number of ouabain-binding sites.

Abstract
Both sodium countertransport and sodium-potassium cotransport are altered in erythrocytes from some hypertensive subjects and their relatives. Lithium can substitute for sodium in both of these transport mechanisms; they can then be monitored as sodium-lithium countertransport and lithium-potassium cotransport. Using erythrocytes loaded with lithium, we can determine both transport systems simultaneously by monitoring the rate of lithium efflux into three media: (1) NaCl, (2) MgCl2 and (3) MgCl2 with furosemide. The difference between the effluxes into NaCl and MgCl2 is the sodium-lithium countertransport; the difference between the effluxes into MgCl2 with and without the cotransport inhibitor furosemide is the lithium-potassium cotransport. At the intracellular Li concentrations used in these experiments, lithium-potassium cotransport is a linear function of the Li+ concentration and can be expressed by the equation for a first order reaction. The rate constant can be calculated by dividing the lithium-potassium cotransport by the intracellular lithium concentration and correlates well (r = 0.80, n = 30) with sodium-potassium cotransport measured by Dagher and Garay's method. The simultaneous measurement of countertransport and cotransport requires much less time, effort and material than measuring the two transports separately.

Abstract
The relationship between diagonal earlobe crease and coronary risk factors, controlling for age and sex effects, was tested in 686 persons. A positive correlation (rho=.86, P<.001) is obtained between age and percentage of persons with earlobe creases in each one-year age interval; no sex difference is seen. To test for associations between cardiovascular risk factors and earlobe creases, 67 persons with creases are compared with 67 controls (matched by age and sex) without creases, using the following variables: diastolic and systolic blood pressures, cigarette smoking, weight, height, scapular skinfold thickness, serum cholesterol level, high-density lipoprotein level, intracellular sodium, sodium-lithium countertransport, plasma renin level and the presence of diabetes and hypertension. None of these variables differs significantly between cases and controls, indicating that the previously documented association between earlobe crease and coronary heart disease may be independent of these risk factors. Although coronary heart disease has often been shown to aggregate in families, no familial aggregation is found for earlobe creases.

Abstract
To understand how genetic and environmental factors could interact to lead to different types of obesity, a simple hypothetical model is examined involving two genes and one environmental factor. Separate and interactive effects are illustrated. The confounded expression of distant phenotypes and advantages of studying phenotypes close to immediate gene products are explained. The appearance of population frequency distribution curves for level of obesity are illustrated for five different situations simulating actual data behaving according to the hypothetical model. Six suggestions are given as a practical approach to characterizing morbid obesity: (1) describe the frequency distribution of morbid obesity by age and sex in the general population; (2) obtain accurate family history data from obese probands, spouses, and controls; (3) contrast results of metabolic studies between obese probands with and without a family history of obesity; (4) obtain metabolic screening data from close relatives of selected obese probands and controls; (5) study special settings (twins, adoption, migration, race); (6) when justified, perform extensive pedigree studies using metabolic evaluations, linkage markers, and carefully prepared computer model testing. Careful collection of family history data is explained in detail and is proposed as an important and relatively inexpensive tool that should be part of any study of human obesity.

Abstract
Plasma ionized calcium and total calcium were measured on 271 individuals from 34 Utah pedigrees divided into groups defined by the method of pedigree ascertainment: 1) hypertension clusters, 2) early stroke death clusters and 3) clusters of early heart attack deaths. Normotensive individuals were also categorized by family history of hypertension. Members of stroke cluster pedigrees had higher mean plasma ionized Ca2+ than either hypertension pedigrees (p less than 0.05) or coronary artery disease pedigrees which had the lowest concentrations (p less than 0.001). Within the normotensive group, those subjects with a positive family history of hypertension exhibited significantly higher plasma ionized Ca2+ (2.18 +/- 0.10 (S.D.) mEq/l) than individuals without a family history of hypertension (2.12 +/- 0.08 mEq/l, p less than 0.01). In medicated hypertensives, both ionized (p less than 0.05) and total (p less than 0.01) plasma calcium were higher than calcium levels in the normotensive negative family history subjects. Plasma ionized Ca2+ in the adult normotensives (N = 134) had significant age corrected positive correlations with plasma sodium (r = 0.25, p less than 0.01), potassium (r = 0.29, p less than 0.001) and erythrocyte sodium-lithium countertransport values (r = 0.20, p less than 0.05). These findings provide additional evidence that plasma ionized calcium concentrations may be important to help define the heterogeneity of hypertension in adult Americans.

Abstract
Likelihood analysis using the mixed model of quantitative plasma Lp(a) measurements on members of a large pedigree provided evidence that high levels of Lp(a) are inherited as a dominant major gene with polygenic background. The dominant allele frequency was estimated as 0.10. The major gene and polygenic components together accounted for 95% of the variation seen in the measurements. The major gene index and OBP plots, methods that do not allow for the presence of both components, favored the polygenic model over the major gene model as the mode of inheritance. No association was found with any of the lipids, lipoproteins or apolipoproteins considered.

Abstract
The C-terminal sequence of chicken gizzard desmin has been examined by computer programs based on Chou-Fasman prediction of secondary structure, auto-correlation and Fourier analysis of hydrophobic residue distribution, and cross-correlation analysis of acidic and basic residues. These analyses indicate that, although parts of the desmin sequence are alpha-helical, the helical regions may not be as extensive as predicted previously. Detailed analysis of the distribution of the charged residues in the desmin sequence strongly suggests that it cannot form a tropomyosin-like coiled-coil double-helix because of the almost complete absence of stabilizing salt-bridge interactions between proximal pairs of acidic and basic residues. Although the desmin sequence does contain the tropomyosin-like hydrophobic residue distribution, differences exist in the overall distributions of hydrophobes, with clusters of these residues being found in certain regions of the desmin sequence. Analyses of the sequences of porcine desmin and vimentin reveal very similar structural characteristics for these molecules, although vimentin is predicted to have a different structure at its C-terminus.

Abstract
Sodium-lithium countertransport was measured in July 1980-December 1982 in 841 persons from 48 Utah families prone to hypertension. Mean countertransport in 54 hypertensive adults (0.32 +/- 0.01 standard error of the mean) was significantly higher than in 511 normotensive adults (0.26 +/- 0.005, p less than 0.001) but with much overlap between the two groups. This difference was observed in both men and women. Only 26% of the subjects with essential hypertension had values above 0.40 (considered "high" by most other published reports). High values were seen in only 2% of 276 youths under age 18 years in contrast to 11% of the normotensive adults (p less than 0.001). Among normotensive adults, countertransport was higher in men than women, and correlated with weight, diastolic blood pressure, and age (all significant at p less than 0.01). None of these findings were seen in youths. In multivariate analyses, only weight continued to be significantly correlated with countertransport. The difference between countertransport levels in hypertensive vs. normotensive adults remained significant even after adjusting for weight. While confirming other reports of higher mean sodium-lithium countertransport in persons with essential hypertension, this study shows much overlap of values between groups and potential confounding effects of weight. When the authors compared their results with studies that show little overlap between hypertensive and normotensive adults, they found that the data for the normotensive adults in this study are similar to those reported in the other studies, but that the hypertensive adults include a larger percentage of individuals with low countertransport values.

Abstract
Size-exclusion, ion-exchange, and reversed-phase chromatography were investigated for use in purification and characterization of Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), a 28,000 Mr protein associated with Staphylococcal food-borne intoxication. In all approaches chromatography of crude or purified SEB yielded one or more components which displayed toxin activity and contained the 28,000 Mr SEB protein plus other lower-molecular-weight protein species. Reversed-phase chromatography of detergent-treated SEB permitted resolution of the 28,000 Mr protein from lower-molecular-weight components.

A toxicity curve showed no threshold at the levels tested. The mortality response in a feeding study with P. vannamei was not dose dependent, but tissue and organ damage were similar to that seen in injected animals.

Participating laboratories tested 10 different samples (including one negative) in blind duplicate. Triplicate standards were alternated with triplicate unknowns around the periphery of each of 5 different plates. Zone diameters were measured and the difference in zone size of pairs of adjacent standard and unknown samples were analyzed by a paired t-test. Penicillin concentrations 0.003 IU/mL different from the reference concentrations were consistently distinguishable at a 95% confidence level. Such discriminatory power was determined to be possible with as few as 3 plates (9 replicates) per unknown. The method has been adopted official first action.

Abstract
A descriptive genetic analysis (offspring between parent plot) was applied to serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels of 1044 Finnish subjects who were parents, siblings, spouses, and offspring of 204 male probands with angina pectoris or nonfatal myocardial infarction before age 55 years. The same analysis was also applied to 511 relatives of 106 control men matched to the probands for age and location (northeastern Finland or southern Finland). Striking differences in the plot results for triglyceride data suggest that male probands with angina pectoris as first evidence of coronary disease had different familial characteristics than those with nonfatal myocardial infarction at the onset. Further plot contrasts suggest stronger major gene effects for cholesterol and triglyceride levels in northeastern Finland, both in case and control families. Genetic makeup may help explain why men in northeastern Finland have the world's highest rate of early coronary heart disease.

Abstract
Sodium-lithium counter-transport in human red blood cells may be a potentially useful measurement in studies of hypertension. A kinetic expression describing this counter-transport was derived and evaluated using red cells from nine subjects at various concentrations of intracellular and extracellular Li+ and Na+. The countertransport is dependent upon all four concentrations, intracellular Li+ and Na+ as well as extracellular Li+ and Na+. We confirm that the maximum Na+-Li+ counter-transport (Vmax) is a property of the individual cells while the half-maximal saturating concentrations (K 1/2) for Li+ and Na+ are the same for all subjects. This expression permits a more thorough understanding of conditions affecting Na+-Li+ countertransport measurement.

Abstract
This paper describes experimental conditions for reproducible measurement of sodium-lithium countertransport in red blood cells. The assay is sensitive to temperature (10% per degree C) and the condition of the red cells; it is affected little by changes in intracellular lithium over the range 2-7 mmol/1 or by red cell concentrations with laboratory hematocrits of 0.03 to 0.07. Repeated measurements of the same subjects give day-to-day coefficients of variation of 10% or less. The mean difference for interlaboratory comparisons is 11%.

Abstract
Complete neonatal thymectomy reduced the frequency of spontaneous diabetes mellitus in BioBreeding/Worcester rats from 27 to 3 percent. Incomplete thymectomy also significantly reduced the frequency of diabetes (to 9 percent). These findings strengthen the hypothesis that thymus-dependent, cell-mediated autoimmune destruction of pancreatic B cells is responsible for the pathogenesis of diabetes in this experimental animal.

Abstract
Serum lipoproteins have received considerable notoriety as risk factors for atherosclerotic disease, yet the kinetic factors that determine serum concentrations are often unappreciated. Simple compartmental models for lipoprotein kinetics are herein presented which integrate key features of lipoprotein metabolism and allow prediction of very low-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein levels in a wide variety of clinical circumstances. Possible changes in kinetic parameters responsible for hyperlipidemia in obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, carbohydrate (sugar)-induced hypertriglyceridemia, alcoholic type V hyperlipemia, polyunsaturated fat diets, and several pharmacological interventions are discussed. Key features of lipoprotein metabolism are briefly reviewed.

Abstract
In 5,209 subjects studied for 24 years in Framingham, Mass, 691 cases of cancer were documented, with histological confirmation for 94%. Predetermined personal characteristics were tested for associations with subsequent occurrence of cancer at specific sites using multiple logistic regression. Significant associations of various cancer sites with cigarette smoking, alcohol use, education, height, weight, and parity agreed with other studies. Serum cholesterol level was inversely associated with incidence of colon cancer and with other sites only in men; these inverse associations were statistically significant after adjustment for age, alcohol consumption, cigarette smoking, education, systolic blood pressure, and relative weight. Associations may reflect effects of competing lethal diseases, underlying pathophysiological mechanisms that promote or inhibit development of cancer in men, biologic or social response to early and undiagnosed states of cancer.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics and incidence of abrupt occurrence of abnormal initial QRS forces that cannot be explained by acute myocardial infarction or left or right ventricular overload. Computerized data from 3175 patients with suspected acute infarction were reviewed to identify those in whom the ECGs revealed QRS complexes considered to be diagnostic (Q wave or markedly diminished R wave) in the presence of persistently normal profiles of both creatine kinase and lactic dehydrogenase isoenzymes. Lead misplacement had been minimized by obtaining multispace tracings and vectorcardiograms. Eight patients (0.25%) were identified. The abnormal forces were confined to leads V 1-3 in six, V 4-6 in one, and involved all precordial leads in the last. These QRS changes resolved completely within 6 days in all eight patients, which suggests that they did not have an acute infarction. This theory was supported by postmortem examination in one patient. An extremely low incidence (0.25%) has been documented for a syndrome characterized by transient loss of initial anterior forces with persistently normal isoenzyme profiles. Although no etiology could be determined, a transient conduction block of the septal fascicle of the left bundle could have been the cause in seven of the eight patients.

Abstract
With the use of data from the Utah State Cancer Registry and Utah genealogical data, an analysis of 236 breast cancer patients and 937 controls matched on year of birth showed that a late age at the birth of the first child was most strongly associated with incidence of breast cancer (relative odds = 2.0; P less than 0.001). A strong interaction was found between age at first delivery (AFD) and age at last delivery (ALD). The association of AFD with breast cancer incidence was strongest for women with an ALD before 35 years of age even after adjustment for partly (relative odds = 4.1; P less than 0.001). Decreased parity was not significantly associated with breast cancer.

Abstract
Cardiovascular mortality in the State of Utah is among the lowest in the United States. The religion of 72% of the state residents (Mormon) proscribes the use of tobacco and alcohol; a large number of Mormons adhere to this proscription. This study analyzed the 6108 cardiovascular disease deaths between 1969--1971 in Utah of members in the Mormon Church. For both sexes, Mormons had 35% less mortality than expected from US rates for ischemic heart disease, while non-Mormons were not significantly different from US whites. These results support the relationship between cigarette smoking and mortality from cardiovascular disease. Mormon men also had lower mortality from hypertensive heart disease and Mormon women from rheumatic heart disease than non-Mormons in Utah.

Abstract
A significant but low-level association (relative odds, 2.0; P less than 0.05) was observed between the occurrence of breast cancer and the use of rauwolfia derivatives for 5 or more years in the study of 481 breast cancer cases and 1,268 controls from a joint national mammography screening project of the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society. This association was confined to women over age 50 years who were also heavier than average. No confounding effects could be held responsible for this association after adjustment was made for variables such as presence of hypertension, weight, age at first pregnancy, and other breast cancer risk factors. Other antihypertensive and diuretic drugs as well as multiple drug use also exhibited some suggestive associations with breast cancer. Another group of 421 women with benign lesions at breast biopsy were also compared to the 1,268 controls. They showed a significant association between benign lesions and use of thiazides for 5 or more years (relative odds, 2.4; P less than 0.001) whether employed to treat edema or hypertension. Other antihypertensive and diuretic agents also seemed to show this association, but most of them were being used together with thiazides.

Abstract
From the Third National Cancer Survey (TNCS) Interview Study of 7,518 incident cases, lifetime histories of occupations and industries were studied for associations with specific cancer sites and types while controlling for age, sex, race, education, use of cigarettes or alcohol, and geographic location. Lung cancer patients were found more often than expected among several categories including trucking, air transportation, wholesaling, painting, building construction, building maintenance, and manufacturing (furniture, transportation equipment, and food products). Controlling for cigarette smoking did not change these associations. Leukemia and multiple myeloma were associated with sales personnel of both sexes, whereas lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease were excessive among women working in the medical industry. Other associations included rectal cancer with several retail industries; prostate cancer with ministers, farmers, plumbers, and coal miners; malignant melanoma with school teachers; and invasive cervical cancer with women working in hotels and restaurants. Breast cancer patients were more common among women who were teachers or other professionals and who worked in business and finance (even after controlling for education). Many other findings are presented in detailed tables. Results are reported mainly as a research resource for use by other investigators doing work in this field. Suggestions are given for future studies.

Abstract
Determinations of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) were done by use of frozen serum samples antedating the diagnosis of cancer for 9 pancreatic and 8 gastric carcinoma patients from the Framingham Heart Study. The longest intervals for elevated antigens before cancer diagnosis were 10 months for CEA and 26 months for HCG. (The single elevated AFP was found in a sample 10 days before clinical diagnosis.) Samples from 31 controls matched with the cancer subjects by age, sex, vital capacity, and smoking status showed over 20% "false" positive CEA elevations (all smokers with low vital capacities) and over 20% borderline false positive HCG elevations in postmenopausal females. Although 10-26 months' lead time could infer some potential for use of these tumor-associated antigens to help detect malignant neoplasms at an earlier stage, a serious problem of frequent false positives prevents CEA and HCG levels from being useful as cancer-screening tests at this time.

Abstract
From personal interviews obtained for 7,518 incident cases of invasive cancer from the population-based Third National Cancer Survey, the quantitative lifetime use of cigarettes, cigars, pipes, unsmoked tobacco, wine, beer, hard liquor, and combined alcohol were recorded, as well as education and family income level. In an initial screening analysis of these data, Mantel-Haenszel 2 X 2 contingency tabulations and multiple regression analyses were used to compare each specific cancer site with controls from other sites to test for associations with the "exposure variables." Significant positive associations with cigarette smoking were found for cancers of the lung, larynx, oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, pancreas, bladder, kidney, and uterine cervix. Other forms of tobacco were associated with cancers of the oral cavity, larynx, lung, and cervix. Consumption of wine, beer, hard liquor, and all combined showed positive associations with neoplasms of the oral cavity larynx, esophagus, colon, rectum, breast, and thyroid gland. College educaton and high income both showed positive associations with cancers of the breast, thyroid gland, uterine corpus, and melanomas in males. These same indicators of high socioeconomic status showed inverse associations with invasive neoplasms of the uterine cervix, lung, lip-tongue, and colon in females. College attendance (but not income) showed an inverse association with stomach cancer and positive association with pancreatic cancer in males. Still other tumor sties showed "suggestive" associations with each of these exposure variables. In the analyses producing these results, age, race, sex, smoking, drinking, education, income, parity, foreign birth, marital status, and geographic location were used as stratification variables separately or in combination when appropriate to assess and control for their potentially confounding affects and to examine results in different strata to assess interaction.

Abstract
The in vitro growth rates of different classifications of human mammary epithelium were compared. Samples included 4 established breast cell lines and excised tissue or breast fluid cells originating WOMEN FOR 40 DIFFERENT AND comprising 3 classifications: normal, nonmalignant atypical, and malignant. Growth was quantitated in situ and expressed as population-doubling time. Principal findings were: (a) malignant cells divided at a slower mean rate than normal cells; (b) population-doubling time values of malignant cells were more heterogenous than those of normal cells; (c) cultures from nonmalignant atypias showed population-doubling time means and standard deviations between those of normal and malignant cells; and (d) long-term mammary tumor cell lines divided more slowly than did normal cells. Discussion includes implications of data for the preneoplastic state and cell culture of mammary epithelium.

Abstract
In interview data from the U.S.A.'s Third National Cancer Survey, alcohol ingestion was associated with a higher occurrence of cancers of the breast, thyroid, and amlignant melanoma. Data from other studies support the first two associations. A unifying hypothesis to explain these seemingly diverse associations suggests that alcohol stimulates anterior pituitary secretion of prolactin, thyroid-stimulating hormone (T.S.H.), and melanocyte-stimulating hormone (M.S.H.). Under the stimulations of these hormones, the three target tissues exhibit increased mitotic activity and hence an increase susceptibility to the development of a malignancy. A wide variety of findings from other studies indicate plausibility for this hypothesis. The implications could be grave. In addition to alcohol, several common drugs acting in similar manner could be cancer promoters, including: resperine, methyldopa, phenothiaznes, d-amphetamine, tricyclic antidepressants, and antihistamines. Over 20000 (25%) ofall new breast-cancer cases each year in the U.S.A. could be preventable if this hypothesis is correct.

Abstract
Age at sexual maturity, seasonal gonadal development, and fecundity estimates of mooneye were determined from 695 samples captured in the Assiniboine River between November 17, 1972, and November 2, 1973. Most mooneye became sexually mature in their 4th (III +) or 5th (IV +) year of life, with more males mature at age III + than females. During 1973, spawning began after May 8 and was completed by June 12. The peak spawning activity occurred during mid-May when water temperatures ranged from 10 to 13 °C. All age groups of sexually mature females had rapid ovarian development during the summer months with about 80% of maximum ovarian weight present by October 17. Ripe ova have a mean diameter of 1.98 ± 0.07 mm. The mean annual total fecundity of Assiniboine River mooneye was about 5000–9000 ova per female. The mean annual relative fecundity was about 2000–2400 ova per 100 g body weight.
