The results are in!  New Scientist ran a contest for the most revoltingly
titled scientific paper.

The winning paper (submitted to New Scientist by Steve Archibald of the
University of Dundee) appeared in "Experientia", a Japanese journal.  The
title was "A new method of measuring functional recovery after crushing
the peripheral nerves in unanaesthetised and unrestrained rats."  The
author(s) of the winning paper were not announced.
