Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physical Examination of the Chest in Pulmonary Consumption and Its Intercurrent Diseases The Author's position of Physician to the Hospital for Consumption has afforded him the most ample means of observing the signs he has described. These, both in a practical and a scientific point of View, have had an absorbing interest for him and this, perchance, may have on some occasions led him to be prolix. The concentration of thought which they favour, and the Opportunities which they afford for investigation, are believed by many to be among the most important advantages of special hospitals - centres for relief and study, - which have happily been accorded a secure place amongst the most valued institutions of modern times, and of this progressive and labour-dividing age. Much of the materials upon which the following descriptions are based, much of the means for testing instruments, and of general observation, have been found in the hospital to which he has the honour to belong. His colleagues have greatly aided the Author. The observation of their practice, and the instruction which has casually fallen from them, have been a guide to him. He would thus gratefully acknowledge their aid but at the same time, he by no means desires to shelter himself from criticism for his opinions, for which he holds himself alone responsible.

Download or read book How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease written by United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

Download or read book Diseases in the District of Maine 1772 1820 written by Richard J. Kahn and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeremiah Barker practiced medicine in rural Maine up until his retirement in 1818. Throughout his practice of fifty years, he documented his constant efforts to keep up with and contribute to the medical literature in a changing medical landscape, as practice and authority shifted from historical to scientific methods. He performed experiments and autopsies, became interested in the new chemistry of Lavoisier, risked scorn in his use of alkaline remedies, studied epidemic fever and approaches to bloodletting, and struggled to understand epidemic fever, childbed fever, cancer, public health, consumption, mental illness, and the "dangers of spirituous liquors." Dr. Barker intended to publish his Diseases in the District of Maine 1772-1820 by subscription - advance pledges to purchase the published volume - but for reasons that remain uncertain, that never happened. For the first time, Barker's never before published work has been transcribed and presented in its entirety with extensive annotations, a five-chapter introduction to contextualize the work, and a glossary to make it accessible to 21st century general readers, genealogists, students, and historians. This engaging and insightful new publication allows modern readers to reimagine medicine as practiced by a rural physician in New England. We know much about how elite physicians practiced 200 years ago, but very little about the daily practice of an ordinary rural doctor, attending the ordinary rural patient. Barker's manuscript is written in a clear and engaging style, easily enjoyed by general readers as well as historians, with extensive footnotes and a glossary of terms. Barker himself intended his book to be "understood by those destitute of medical science."
