    Summary: "Bratton's Family Medicine Board Review, Fourth Edition, is a directed review of important topics that typically appear on American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) in-training examinations, board certification examinations, and recertification examinations. This material is not intended for a comprehensive review but, instead, should direct the examinee to areas of weakness that may need further review. Family medicine is a broad field, and to provide a complete, comprehensive review of all topics that may be covered is extremely time consuming if not impossible. Several other courses attempt to provide this type of review; however, this book is more abbreviated and focuses on topics that are commonly found on board examinations. Adequate preparation for any test is the key to success and rewarding results. Given this, we all know the importance of practice tests and the benefits of testing our knowledge base before the actual examination. This review book is structured for the examinee with limited time and resources for review and should be used only by those individuals with an established foundation of knowledge within the field of family medicine. Its primary purpose is to identify areas of weakness that can be improved on"--Provided by publisher.

    A technique for measurement of small samples of unit behavior during regularly repeated stimulation is described. A correlation-based measure was computed over two successive stimulus presentation by summing the products of spike counts for corrsponding time bins and normalizing to the number of bins and the number of spike counts during the two stimulus presentations. This measure was combined with the mean frequency of spike occurrence during the stimulus presentation to give a characterization of neuronal activity sensitive to changes in both strength of temporal patterns and mean frequency. Examples are given of olfactory responsive neurons with comparison of measurement techniques. The time course of the response to odor of neurons recorded under urethane anesthesia from the olfactory bulb and the lateral hypothalamus was studied. By both simple mean frequency measures and the measures proposed in this study, the neurons recorded from the lateral hypothalamus underwent more rapid temporal decrements in the odor response.
