RESUMO
To examine the mental health status of cancer patients, each of 50 cancer patients and 50 healthy normal adults of an age range of 32 to 65 years was given the Hindi version of the Mithila Mental Health Status Inventory of Kumar and Thakur. Analyses indicated that cancer patients scored higher than the control group on four of the five subscales showing poorer mental health than their normal peers.

Normal histology, glycogen and alkaline phosphatase have been studied in the mucosa of human fetal ileum between 28 and 140 days of gestation. From 112 days onwards, the perinuclear, supranuclear and infranuclear vacuolation, striate border, and basement membrane of the columnar epithelial cells of the villi, and the very close proximity of the latter to blood vessels, all support the idea that the cells are actively engaged in transport of materials. Alkaline phosphatase and glycogen become conspicuous in the cells at this stage. It is argued that by 112 days the epithelial cells of the ileum are absorbing glucose amniotic fluid as well as secreting mucus.

Glycogen and alkaline phosphatase have been studied in human fetal epidermis between the 28th and 182nd days of gestation. Early on, bladder cells rich in glycogen and alkaline phosphatase are present in the periderm. After 140 days, however, keratin appears in the superficial layers of the periderm; the bladder cells degenerate and become 'rosette' cells, and glycogen and alkaline phosphatase begin to disappear. It is suggested from this evidence that, in early fetal life, before the onset of keratinization, glucose is absorbed from the amniotic fluid and stored as glycogen in the periderm.
