This follow-up study to determine the effectiveness of a child psychiatric unit found evidence to support a program emphasizing a predetermined period of hospitalization. Most measures of family satisfaction, behaviour and social function improved significantly. The unit appears to treat older children as well as those less than 9, children from fighting families as well as those with less fighting, and sexually abused children as well as physically abused children. The program includes: 2 weeks of preadmission evaluations, 5 weeks hospitalization and 5 weeks of follow-up, placement decisions made before admission, primary responsibility for front line staff and treatment programs composed of various combinations of techniques from a list of 65 possible techniques.

Main Components

Scanning microscopy was used to study the surface of human gallstones and the surface of fractures. The specimens were obtained by operation, washed with water, dried at room temperature and shadowcasted with carbon and aluminum. Most of the specimens belong to patients from a series of X-ray follow-up study, examined during the last twenty years. So it was possible to evaluate approximately the age of these gallstones and to get information on the intensity of growing and solving.Cholesterol, a group of bile pigment substances and different salts of calcium, are the main components of human gallstones. By X-ray diffraction technique, infra-red spectroscopy and by chemical analysis it was demonstrated that all three components can be found in any gallstone. In the presence of water cholesterol crystallizes in pane-like plates of the triclinic crystal system.
