This chapter highlights a model of active femininity that places young women outside the domestic sphere. Pusapati explores the support extended to the mid-century campaign for women’s entry into medicine in England by the feminist periodical the English Woman’s Journal (1858–64). The journal’s promotion of a ‘specific and highly ambitious model of the college-educated, professional female physician’ functioned to encourage young women to strive for access to higher education as well as entry to the world of medicine (122). As Pusapati demonstrates, the English Woman’s Journal frequently looked to examples from beyond Britain’s borders to buttress this sense of possibility for female readers, not only in terms of professional achievement but also to reassure readers, male and female, that women could practice medicine without flouting ‘women’s culturally sanctioned domestic and social roles’ (123).

Introduction: Physicians need to foster healthy relationships with patients to optimize care, with time constraints and workloads being barriers. Studies have shown the importance of first impressions, which are influenced by attire. Studies of physician attire have previously been conducted in metropolitan populations. This study’s goal was to investigate patient preferences for physician attire among rural populations. Methods: A cross-sectional study of patients was conducted in waiting rooms of five ambulatory clinics dispersed throughout rural northern Michigan. Anonymous surveys contained a series of photos of a male and a female physician, with photos within the series differing only by apparel. Participants indicated which male and female physician they would prefer in various scenarios. Participants provided demographic information and indicated their own physician’s usual attire. Responses were analyzed using comparative statistics and logistic regression. Results: Survey response rate was 78% (92/118). Similar to metropolitan studies, patients preferred professional attire including white coat in almost all scenarios. For most scenarios, participants preferred professional attire for both male and female physicians, however respondents were more tolerant of casual attire for female physicians. Older participants and those whose physician dressed casually tended to be more tolerant of casual attire. Patients preferred surgical attire only in emergency situations. Conclusions: This study of a rural population showed a clear preference for professional physician attire. In general, rural physicians should consider wearing professional attire with white coat in order to best meet patient expectations. Further investigations are needed to enhance the generalizability of study findings.

Phosgene still plays an important role as a toxic substance in the chemical industry. Thiess (1968) recently reported observations on numerous cases of phosgene poisoning. A serious difficulty in the clinical handling of phosgene poisoning cases is a relatively long latent period, up to 12 hours, with no obvious signs of severity. At about 12 hours heavy lung edema appears suddenly, however changes can be seen in routine X-rays taken after only a few hours' exposure (Diller et al., 1969). This study was undertaken to correlate these early changes seen by the roengenologist with morphological alterations in the lungs seen in the'light and electron microscopes.Forty-two adult male and female Beagle dogs were selected for these exposure experiments. Treated animals were exposed to 94.5-107-5 ppm phosgene for 10 min. in a 15 m3 chamber. Roentgenograms were made of the thorax of each animal before and after exposure, up to 24 hrs.

Gonadotroph cell adenomas of the pituitary are infrequent in human patients and are not invariably associated with altered gonadal function. To date, no animal model of this tumor type exists. Herein, we describe spontaneous gonadotroph cell adenomas in old male and female Sprague-Dawley rats by histology, immunocytology and electron microscopy.The material consisted of the pituitaries of 27 male and 38 female Sprague Dawley rats, all 26 months of age or older, removed at routine autopsy. Sections of formal in-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue were stained with hematoxylin-phloxine-saffron (HPS), the PAS method and the Gordon-Sweet technique for the demonstration of reticulin fibers. For immunostaining, sections were exposed to anti-rat β-LH, anti-ratβ-TSH, anti-rat PRL, anti-rat GH and anti-rat ACTH 1-39. For electron microscopy, tissue was fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde, postfixed in 1% OsO4 and embedded in epoxy-resin. Tissue fixed in 10% formalin, embedded in epoxy resin without osmification, was used for immunoelectron microscopy.
