Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1918, Vol. 156 The animal organism, except that of the unicellular type, is a congerie of organs whose history, individually considered, as it is thus far revealed, constitutes the sciences we call comparative embryology and comparative physiology and which we must know, not only to comprehend the full significance of the work they now perform, but also to recognize and interpret the possible variants from the normal in function and structure which they may manifest. This history, in invertebrates as in vertebrates, is one of change either in structure or in function, or, often, in both structure and function, and, accordingly, frequently confusing and difficult to follow in any attempt to gain a full comprehension of the conditions and forces that determined the character of each organ.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1917, Vol. 154 Pain was very strikingly relieved in many of the cases; discharge diminished in quantity and odor. If the patient's symptoms improved, but the lesions did not Show improvement, the case was not considered improved. Unimproved means that the patient's lesions or symptoms or both were not improved and that the lesions steadily progressed despite treatment. Some of the cases showed such marked improvement under treat ment at first that although they subsequently died it was deemed important to call attention to this class of cases by tabulating them under the heading of primarily improved, subsequently died. Our experience has led us to expect certain cases to do very well under treatment at first and raise great hopes of recovery in the patient and the therapeutist. Such cases have frequently been reported in the literature during this stage of improvement, and not uncommonly the patients have relapsed and died by the time the reports have been published. Some cases are improved but still unde'r treatment, so that their ultimate results are not known. These are classified in the column improved, still under treat ment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1919, Vol. 158 Depending upon the locality, the etiological factors producing pneumonia may be expected to show variation. From experience in army base hospitals, two facts of importance have been rather universally recognized. The first fact refers to the general preva lence of the streptococcus (normally one of the hemolytic varieties) in pneumonia following measles. The second fact refers to the prevalence of the streptococcus, likewise one of the hemolytic varieties, as an organism associated in many localities with the pneumococcus in the production of epidemic pneumonia not pre ceded by measles or influenza, but as a distinct type in which the pneumococcus has appeared to play but a minor role. In certain localities, during the recent epidemic of influenzal pneumonia, the pneumococcus as the prevalent type of infection both in the acute disease and in the subsequent empyemas. In other localities the pneumococcus and streptococcus have been associated, while in others streptococcus pneumonias have been more frequently encountered than had been heretofore generally recognized. In the series of empyema here reported only those are included which required treatment by aspiration or operation. There were available for this report 35 empyema patients who recovered by repeated aspirations alone, while came to Operation. Those patients were not included who died within a few days of admission with an established diagnosis of empyema or those who died during the course of aspirations designed for their relief, but who, because of activity of the pneumonic process, acute bilateral empyema, purulent pericarditis, meningitis or other serious complications, were not considered reasonable operative risks. Because of the interest attached to variations of treatment, with increasing experience, these empyema patients have been grouped, depending largely upon three-time intervals, as follows' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 1004 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1920, Vol. 159 The mortality rate following prostatectomy is in direct ratio to three vitally important factors: (1) The recognition of absolute contra-indications to operation; (2) the recognition of relative contra-indications to operation, and (3) the knowledge of methods of treatment preliminary to operation that will remove such relative operative contra-indications and thus bring the individual within the operable class. Characteristic illustrations of these factors are most frequently found in subnormal function of the kidneys. In one instance an impending uremia may be due solely to an antecedent nephritis of the chronic interstitial type, in which event, the cause being irremovable, there is an absolute contra-indication to operation. In another instance a minor degree of interstitial nephritis may exist, but the dangerously low renal function present is dependent upon back pressure incident to lower urinary obstruction. Under these circumstances there is a relative contra-indication to operation, because after decompression of the kidneys the renal function im proves, so that eventually the obstructing prostate can be removed successfully.

This book was released on 2017-10-30 with total page 950 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1912, Vol. 144 Such a thing as natural constipation, in my Opinion, does not exist. Some reason must he looked for as a cause for the deficient evacuation. In childhood such reason is found occasionally in some anatomical malformation, but this is seldom. The common cause is neglect of the habit of evacuation, or, even more commonly, a wrong diet. When I looked over these boys I found absolutely no anatomical deformity, but on questioning the mother as to their habits and diet, I found that the custom of having stool at a special time of day had never been insisted upon, and the mother told me that she was very careful as to their diet and had always been. I was away on my vacation when consulted as to these boys, so had no means of making careful record of the physical findings, weight, urine, etc. Suffice it to say that the only abnormality found was a condition of inanition in both children. When the mother told me how she was feeding them, into the details of which it is unnecessary to enter, I was not surprised at their physical state. They were being fed on foods which had almost no residue, and they were not receiving enough even of such food. To the joy of both boys 1 increased their diet considerably, giving both foods which had more food value, and what is just as important, a sufficient amount of the fodder vegetables to produce enough bulk to the residue to stimulate peristalsis. I also pre scribed the amount oi water to be taken daily and the times at which it should be taken. I instructed the mother to have the boys go to stool at the same time each day and try to have a passage. If this did not come without great straining, to give a small enema of soaped water to start it. I also ordered that all laxative medicines be stopped. After the third day the enema was not needed. It is over a year since this advice was given, and the boys have neither of them required a laxative Since. I have several such: cases on record, so I feel sure that we can put down as one of the chief etiological factors in constipation, especially in children, a lack of sufficient bulk to the residue of the food, and, as another, neglect of the habit of evacuation. The former can readily be supplied by the use of a sufficient amount of the fodder vegetables, and the latter by discipline.

This older method still retains its hold 011 the practitioner both because it fulfils the seemingly rational indications to give an open wound rest and to substitute an efficient means of nourishing the patient while the normal food supplies are contra-indicated, but also because it cures if efficiently carried out avery large majority of the patients even if their symptoms are severe and accompanied by profuse hemorrhage and its resulting anemia.
