The purpose of this paper is to explore how these ethical guidelines apply to the personal growth/training groups utilized in counseling master\u27s and doctoral programs and the ethical dilemmas that arise because of them. This paper will also explore suggestions that have been made to address these ethical dilemmas

Histopathologic alterations associated with the transplanted homologous dog liver

Homotransplanted livers in dogs developed mononuclear, lymphocytic and plasmacytic infiltration and hepatic cell degeneration roughly paralleling survival time. Extensive histologic alterations of host reticuloendothelial structures occurred. Proliferation and infiltration of mononuclear cells, principally plasmacytes, were noted in lung, kidney, perirenal supportive tissue, bone marrow, and lymph nodes. Lymph nodes, in addition, were characterized by cortical and follicular depletion. These changes were considered to represent extensive host reticuloendothelial mobilization coincident to liver homotransplant rejection. The relation between these alterations and those found in other hypersensitivity states is discussed. © 1962

Isohemagglutinins of Graft Origin after ABO-Unmatched Liver Transplantation

THE increasing success of liver transplantation in recent years has provided an experimental model to study and document the hepatic synthesis of many plasma proteins.12345 The normal hepatobiliary tract has not been regarded as a major source of antibody,6,7 aside from the enteric IgA secreted from plasma into the biliary tree.8 Liver transplantation affords the opportunity to study the production of antibody to red cells. Recipient ABO incompatibility to the donor (a mismatched transplant, e.g., a group A liver transplanted into a group B recipient), although not absolutely contraindicated in liver transplantation, is avoided when possible. However, ABO-unmatched transplants (defined. © 1984, Massachusetts Medical Society. All rights reserved
