Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1920, Vol. 159 To those who worked with him in Baltimore many memories come back of the days in the hospital and classroom. No man ever had more devoted assistants; to them he was The Chief, and that title in their thoughts can never belong to anyone else in the sense that it did to him. '1 be alert, active figure entering the hospital a few minutes before nine, and always on time, the ward rounds, the hunt in the library for an article, the discussion of some special point, the interest of the clinic, are part of the recollections that come back. For his students the Saturday evenings at his home must stand out as perhaps the best hours of their undergraduate life.

The ages of the patients varied from nine months to fourteen years. In three instances two members of a family were admitted, and in a fourth instance two cousins living in the same house. It was further observed that although only in a very few instances could a direct or indirect contact with a patient suffering from the disease be recorded, at any one time the majority of patients came from the same general locality in New York. Inquiries were made as to the prevalence of flies and other insects in the house, and subsequent to the communication of Rosenau2 on the conveyance of infection by the stable fly (stomoxys calcitrans), the proximity of the home to stables was in all cases inquired into. Neither the prevalence of insects nor the neighborhood of stables was found to be a usual occurrence. In many cases the parents suggested some slight accident or some dietary indiscretion as the cause of the condition, but in no case could a predisposing cause be ascertained. In View of the possible importance of the nose and throat as the point of entrance of the infection, the tonsils were in all cases inspected.3 Simple inspection is unsatisfactory in estimating the size or condition of tonsils, but in 37 cases they were noted as somewhat enlarged and congested, in 18 cases as enlarged, and in 4 as slightly congested. In the remaining 31 they were noted as normal or were not examined, as occurred in two rapidly fatal cases. In the case of 8 children whose tonsils were noted as enlarged and congested, 21 other children in their families were examined, and of these in 16 the tonsils were noted as Showing no enlargement or congestion. In 15 cases the tonsils were enucleated, and on removal usually proved to be larger than inspection had led one to expect.

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.

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, 1899, Vol. 118 A yet more striking illustration of the scarlatiniform rash, and one in which this lasted very much longer, was afforded by the next case. Case II. - Katie F., a young woman, was admitted into the Penn sylvania Hospital on March 6, 1897, having been ill for about five days. She had been previously in good health, and had never had either measles or scarlet fever. On admission to the hospital her tempera ture was noted at but it soon rose to the urine showed a trace of albumin, and one finely granular cast was found. The skin was very fair, so that any spots could have been readily detected, but none were observable. The next day there appeared on the face and arms a bright red, erythematous rash, which lessened somewhat after sponging, and was not always equally distinct, seeming to come and go, though never wholly leaving. There was no rash of the kind on the body, but it was specially observed that pressure on the skin everywhere produced a red spot which only slowly faded. The temperature ranged between 103 and On the 9th great disturbance of respiration was perceived, the breathing fell to twelve in the minute, and was jerky and irregular, and the erythematous rash which had disappeared showed itself again on the face and arms, giving the patient the appearance of scarlet fever - an appearance which was increased by a redness of the tonsils and the pharynx, the latter being covered with tenacious mucus. She was very ill, but the temperature-range was not materially different; during the night it ranged from to and she was very delirious.
