1. We have assessed the effect of a specific histamine H1‐receptor antagonist, terfenadine, in the treatment of atopic asthmatics during the grass pollen season. 2. Eighteen mil...
Cosmic Microwave Background Temperature at Galaxy Clusters
We have deduced the cosmic microwave background temperature in the Coma Cluster (A1656, z = 0.0231) and in A2163 (z = 0.203) from spectral measurements of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich ...

Proliferation and maintenance of both normal and prostate cancer (PCa) cells is highly regulated by steroid hormones, particularly androgens, and the extracellular environment. ...
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Constraints on Cosmic Star Formation History from the Cosmic Spectrum
We present the first results on the history of star formation in the universe based on the 'cosmic spectrum,' in particular the volume-averaged, luminosity-weighted, stellar abs...
Ethnic differences in prevalence of asthma symptoms and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in New Zealand schoolchildren.
Maoris and Pacific Islanders in New Zealand have a higher asthma mortality and hospital admission rates than Europeans. To determine whether difference in asthma prevalence is t...
BCL-6 EXPRESSION IN REACTIVE LYMPHOID TISSUE AND IN B-CELL NON-HODGKIN'S LYMPHOMAS
Chromosomal abnormalities involving 3q27 have recently been associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphomas and, less frequently, with follicular lymphomas. Molecular studies hav...
