Antisocial behaviour in prisons, including violence, are reduced by vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids with similar implications for those eating poor diets in the community.

Average tissue compositions have been derived for seven groups of soft tissues found in "Reference Man". The analyses took into account some 40 soft tissues comprising the adult human. Different groups of soft tissues were selected to provide average tissue compositions of practical value in radiation dosimetry. In addition, as more reliable skeletal tissue data are now available, an updated tabulation is given of average bone formulations. Elemental compositions and mass and electron densities are tabulated for all of the derived systems.

SYNOPSISIn a sample of 60 schizophrenic patients encompassing all grades of severity and chronicity memory impairment was found to be prevalent, often substantial, and disproportionate to the overall level of intellectual impairment. The deficits were not easily attributable to poor cooperation, attention or motivation; nor were they related to neuroleptic or anticholinergic medication. Memory impairment was significantly associated with severity and chronicity of illness and also with negative symptoms and formal thought disorder. There was evidence from the sample as a whole, and from a more detailed examination of five patients with relatively isolated deficits, that schizophrenic memory impairment conformed to the pattern seen in the classical amnesic syndrome. Additionally, there was preliminary evidence for a marked deficit in semantic memory.
