Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Pulmonary Tuberculosis: Embracing Its History, Pathology, and Treatment In the third part, I have considered the treatment of the dis ease. I have endeavored to show the importance of local treatment in the early stage of the affection, particularly in the chronic form, especially where follicular degeneration has preceded the development of tubercles in the lungs. Great pains were taken in the examination of the cases of phthisis which presented themselves for treatment. Of 558 cases of phthisis that came under my observation, 311 were males and 247 females. Of this number, 377 had disease in the right lung, and 234 in the left. Of the females (247) 147 were first diseased in the right lung, and 100 in the left. In the treatment of a large number of cases during many years of observation, about the same proportion in the nature of the lesion and in its location was remarked. Hence, the plan of treatment I have recommended, was adopted, and has been carried out during a period of over twenty-five years.

Download or read book Spitting Blood written by Helen Bynum and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Few diseases have been more inextricably linked with our past than tuberculosis. The ancient Greeks called it phthisis or consumption, names still familiar in the early twentieth century. They knew that coughing up or spitting of blood were bad signs. Through the Medieval Period to the modern day, Helen Bynum explores the history and development of TB throughout the world, touching on the various discoveries that have emerged about the disease, and focusing on the clinical and experimental approaches of Rene Laennec (1781-1826) and Robert Koch (1842-1910). Therapies included miraculous touching, bleeding, travel, vaccines, sanatoria, open-air therapy, and surgery, although none proved successful. A real cure finally arrived after World War II, with anti-tuberculosis drugs, characterizing a new optimism about science, health, and society. Although concerns about TB faded away in the mid-twentieth century, the disease has now returned with a vengeance. Bynum describes the emerging picture from the World Health Organization of the difficulties in managing new drug-resistant forms of the disease that have established themselves in the developing world, and in poorer parts of large cities worldwide. The story of tuberculosis, it seems, is far from over."--

Download or read book Nutrition and Health in Developing Countries written by Richard David Semba and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-04-25 with total page 639 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nutrition and Health series of books have, as an overriding mission, to provide health professionals with texts that are considered essential because each includes: 1) a synthesis of the state of the science, 2) timely, in-depth reviews by the leading researchers in their respective fields, 3) extensive, up-to-date fully annotated reference lists, 4) a detailed index, 5) relevant tables and figures, 6) identification of paradigm shifts and the consequences, 7) virtually no overlap of information between chapters, but targeted, inter-chapter referrals, 8) suggestions of areas for future research and 9) balanced, data driven answers to patient /health professionals questions which are based upon the total ity of evidence rather than the findings of any single study. The series volumes are not the outcome of a symposium. Rather, each editor has the potential to examine a chosen area with a broad perspective, both in subject matter as well as in the choice of chapter authors. The international perspective, especially with regard to public health initiatives, is emphasized where appropriate. The editors, whose trainings are both research and practice oriented, have the opportunity to develop a primary objec tive for their book; define the scope and focus, and then invite the leading authorities from around the world to be part of their initiative. The authors are encouraged to provide an overview of the field, discuss their own research and relate the research findings to potential human health consequences.
