    Thomas F. Turner letter to Warren G. Harding, February 20, 1920

    No full text
    In this letter dated February 20, 1920, Thomas F. Turner of Canton, Ohio, writes to Senator Warren G. Harding in response to the announcement of General J. Warren Keifer as Ohio's second choice for delegate-at-large to the Republican National Convention. Turner doesn't object to the choice of Keifer, but rather the declaration made by Harding's campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty, that Ohio's delegates will not have a second choice for presidential nominee at the convention, but will have only one choice, Harding. Should he not win the nomination, the seat will be given to whoever the Convention chooses. Turner states that this ignores the law which requires each delegate to report their first and second choices, and hopes Harding will amend this. This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I

    Warren G. Harding letter to Thomas F. Turner, February 25, 1920

    In this letter dated February 25, 1920, Senator Warren G. Harding writes to Thomas F. Turner of Canton, Ohio, in response to his letter of February 20. Harding explains that Ohio is the only state that requires delegates to name their second choice for the presidency, and he provides interesting insights into the strategy used among Ohio Republican delegates, as well as how this process led to his decision to have many delegates certify General Joseph Warren Kiefer, Spanish-American War veteran and former member and speaker of U.S. House of Representatives, as their second choice.

    Prevalence and clinical picture of celiac disease in Turner syndrome. Bonamico M1, Pasquino AM, Mariani P, Danesi HM, Culasso F, Mazzanti L, Petri A, Bona G; Italian Society Of Pediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology (SIGEP); Italian Study Group for Turner Syndrom (ISGTS). Author information 1Department of Pediatrics, University of Rome La Sapienza, 00161 Roma, Italy. Abstract A multicenter study of Turner syndrome (TS) patients was carried out to estimate the prevalence of celiac disease (CD) and to detect clinical characteristics and laboratory data of affected patients. Three hundred eighty-nine girls with TS were screened by IgA antigliadin antibodies and/or antiendomysial antibodies. Intestinal biopsy was offered to positive cases. CD was diagnosed in 25 patients. In celiac subjects, anemia, anorexia, and delayed growth (with respect to Italian TS curves) were frequently present; whereas distended abdomen, chronic diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting occurred more rarely. In addition, low serum iron levels, hemoglobinemia, and high values of aminotransferases were observed. Ten patients showed classic CD, 8 showed atypical symptoms, and 7 showed a silent CD. In 11 symptomatic patients, the diagnosis of CD was made at the onset of symptoms, whereas 7 of them showed a median delay of 79 months in diagnosis. Other autoimmune disorders were observed in 40% of the patients. Our study confirms the high prevalence (6.4%) of CD in a large series of TS patients. Moreover, the subclinical picture in 60% of the cases, the diagnostic delay, and the incidence of other autoimmune disorders suggest that routine screening of CD in TS is indicated

    Final height in Turner syndrome patients treated with growth hormone

    Growth hormone (GH), alone or in combination with anabolic steroids, seems to improve the growth rate in Turner syndrome, but to exert a less striking effect on the final height (FH). Reports on the FH usually lack a control group, and the GH effect is determined using the gain in centimeters over projected height. Out of a cohort of 32 Turner syndrome girls under recombinant human GH (rhGH) therapy (0.5 IU/kg/week during the Ist year and 1 IU/kg/week subsequently), 18 (treated for 3-6 years) attained FH. The mean chronological age at the first examination was 9.6 +/- (SD) 2.1 years and at the start of GH therapy 13.0 +/- 2.0 (range 8.8-17.2) years. Eighteen untreated subjects matched for chronological age and karyotype served as control group. The FH as SDS according to Lyon and to unpublished Italian Turner syndrome girl standards was not significantly different as compared with pretreatment. In comparison with Italian cross-sectional Turner syndrome standards (FH 142.5 +/- 7.0 cm), the FH of the control group was quite similar (142.2 +/- 4.9 cm), whereas the rhGH-treated group showed a FH of 147.6 +/- 7.3 cm with a mean increment of about 5 cm. The height gain during therapy (as delta height in SDS either according to Lyon or to Italian SDS standards) was compared for each girl with that of a matched girl of the control group during a comparable observation period. A significantly different delta height was observed in the treated versus control groups: 0.3 +/- 1.1 vs. -1.0 +/- 0.8 according to Lyon (p < 0.001) and 0.8 +/- 0.7 vs -0.3 +/- 0.5 according to Italian standards (p < 0.001). If we compared the FH with the projected height according to Lyon standards, the height gain (as delta height in cm) was significantly higher than in the untreated subjects (-1.1 +/- 4.8 vs. -6.2 +/- 3.9 cm; p < 0.05). It seems worthwile to undertake GH treatment in Turner syndrome girls who represent a very short statured population, even though the response is less significant than in classic GH deficiency and shows a striking variability, probably due to a sort of peripheral resistance
