Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sympathetic Nervous Sytem in Disease This book is based upon the Croonian Lectures delivered before the Royal College of Physicians of London in 1918. The kindly interest displayed in different quarters in those lectures emboldens me to hope that in this expanded and rearranged form they may prove of service. I have not attempted to give a detailed account of the anatomy of the autonomic or vegetative nervous system. Several excellent accounts are already in existence, but the mass of detail necessarily involved tends to give the general practitioner an exaggerated idea of its complexity. I have aimed rather to emphasize the main plan of the autonomic nervous system. This is simple, and its comprehension aids in the elucidation of many clinical problems. Nor have I attempted to describe in detail the reaction of the autonomic system to disease. Rather, I have chosen to illustrate its relations to a few large groups of disease - such as affections of the endocrine glands, of the digestive and circulatory systems, and glycosuria. The close interaction of the endocrine glands with the sympathetic nervous system on the one hand, and with the reproductive organs on the other, is a fact of paramount importance in the understanding of the emotional response of the sympathetic nervous system, and of the influence of emotion on structure.

This book was released on 2017-05-24 with total page 968 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Diseases of the Nervous System For much of the new matter I am indebted to Dr. Labadie Lagrave, the accomplished editor and translator of the French edi tion of this work, published in Paris in 1879. The chapters on nervous syphilis, on the symptomatology of cerebral lesions, and on the pathology of the sympathetic nerve, are, except as regards the matter included within brackets, literal translations of his articles on these subjects. I have omitted from this edition the chapters on insanity, and this mainly for the reason that I am now engaged in the prepara tion of a special treatise on that important subject, in which the physiology and pathology of the mind will receive much fuller con sideration than could be given in a book combining the whole subject of neurological medicine. Notwithstanding this omission, the present edition contains about forty more pages than the last. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Diseases of the Nervous System, Vol. 1: Diseases of the Nerves and Spinal Cord Such a classification helps us to obtain clearer views of the primary relations of disease, but is not convenient for systematic description. For this a hybrid system is necessary, in which organic and structural diseases are classified according to their scat, - in the nerves, spinal cord, or brain. With each group may be placed some nutritional or functional maladies of local incidence. The bulk of these diseases are, however, best considered separately, after the organic diseases have been described, since many of them are of wide distribution or uncertain seat.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Diseases of the Nervous System In the presentation of the individual diseases, their diagnosis and pathology have been especially dwelt upon, the writer being of the firm opinion that treatment and general therapeutics are absolutely valueless - sometimes positively dangerous - in the absence of a cor rect or approximately correct diagnosis. Neurology's hardest prob lems are in the diagnostic sphere. Given a correct diagnosis, the treat ment is generally a very simple affair. Diagnosis and pathology rest upon anatomy and physiology, hence much space has been given to normal as well as abnormal neurology m the following work.

The part, however, partakes of the unity of the whole and, so far as possible, the attempt has been made to arrange the diseases of the nervous system in accord with this evolutionary concept.

This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Emotional Disorders of the Sympathetic System of Nerves A conviction that much of the mental suffering around us is due to disordered conditions of those parts of the body which are closely related to the ganglionic system of nerves, has emboldened me to write a Treatise containing many familiar observations on a subject which has been freely discussed and fully acknowledged by both the public and the Medical Profession. The truth is, that we are all familiar with the disorders which accompany disturbed conditions of the mind, but the mechanism by which this disturbance is brought about is too slightly apprehended, and too often only disguised by a name which explains nothing of the nature of the disease. Seeing that it is this class of disorders which supplies the charlatan with fit patients to work upon, and that their gloomy fears and alarm give him ample scope for the most exaggerated statements, and for the use of treatment which too often only protracts suffering, it is hoped that a full exposition of their ailments will protect these sufferers from imposition, and direct them to a rational source of relief.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations on Functional Affections of the Spinal Cord and Ganglionic System of Nerves: In Which Their Identity With Sympathetic, Nervous, and Imitative Diseases Is Illustrated In endeavouring to explain the dependence of hysteric, nervous, and sympathetic disorders in general, on some disturbed state of the spinal cord or ganglionic nerves, we have much pleasure in feeling that we are in some measure offering additional illustrations of a great truth, which the late Mr. Abernethy, in his admirable work "On the Constitutional Origin and Treatment of Local Diseases," placed so fully before the public. He has there pointed out the existence of a wide range of functional affections, simulations of the organic diseases of the system, which owed their origin altogether to what he called constitutional or nervous irritation, or what he would perhaps have called, had he written at a later period of his life, irritation of the brain or spinal cord. In fact, the experiments of the French physiologists were no sooner made known to the world, than Mr. Abernethy at once saw the important inferences they were certain to lead to in pathology, as appears from a note to the chapter on nervous and muscular disorders, in the last edition of his works. "No considerable progress," he says, "could be expected to be made in the study of the origin of sympathetic diseases, whilst the brain was regarded as the sole source or centre of nervous energy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ganglionic Nervous System: Its Structure, Functions, and Diseases The other will be observed combining with this interior life, which in the highest degree it enjoys, an exterior life by which it acquires a very numerous series of relations with all surrounding bodies; a life which couples it with the existence of every other being, by which it is approximated, or removed from the objects of its desires or its fears; and seems in appropriating everything in nature to itself, to consider everything with regard to its individual existence only. "Thus it might be said, that the vegetable is only the sketch, or rather the groundwork of the animal; that for the formation of the latter, it has only been requisite to clothe the former with an apparatus of external organs, by which it might be connected with external objects. "From hence it follows, that the functions of the animal are of two very different classes. By the one (which is composed of an habitual succession of assimilation and exertion), it lives within itself (internally), transforms into its proper substance the particles of other bodies, and afterwards rejects them when they are become heterogeneous to its nature. By the other, it lives externally, is the inhabitant of the world; and not, as the vegetable, of a spot only. It feels, it perceives, it reflects on its sensations, it moves according to their influence; and frequently is enabled to communicate by its voice, its desires and its fears, its pleasures and its pains. "The aggregate of the functions of the first order, I shall name the organie life, because all organized beings, whether animal or vegetable, enjoy it more or less, because organic texture is the sole condition necessary to its existence. The sum of the functions of the second class, because it is exclusively the property of the animal, I shall denominate the animal life."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases of the Nervous System: For General Practitioner and Student The modern physician is not satisfied with a mere enumeration of facts. In reading a description of any malady he wishes also to know the reason of the disturbed functions and the anatomical substratum of the morbid phenomena. Otherwise speaking he feels that he must know the relation of a certain manifestation to the normal and morbid physiology of an affected tissue or organ. The knowledge of pathology is therefore a sine qua non to every think ing man. This chapter must therefore precede any other in giving an account of a certain disease. As I am aiming almost exclusively to present Nervous Diseases from a practical standpoint, I naturally avoided too technical and debatable points of pathology, but on the contrary endeavored to present the most essential changes necessary for a thorough under standing of various clinical manifestations.

Download or read book A Clinical Treatise on the Diseases of the Nervous System Classic Reprint written by M. Rosenthal and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Clinical Treatise on the Diseases of the Nervous System The erudition displayed in Dr. Rosenthal's treatise does not recog nize the boundaries of country, though it is but natural that the author should chiefly refer to the works of his compatriots. We will find in this work, which is not deficient in original observations, a concise but complete expose of important researches upon various questions in nervous pathology by L. Tuerck, Benedikt, Meynert, and other authors of the Vienna School. Among works of this character, which are, in my opinion, too little known among us, I shall restrict myself to calling attention to those which discuss the anatomical lesions of the nervous centres in hydrophobia, the lesions of the arteries in cere bral syphilis, and, finally, the observations which have established, according to Dr. Voigt, the relations of cutaneous anaesthesia and hyperaesthesia with the distribution of the nerves to the integument. The study of foreign works upon nervous diseases has led me to pay attention to certain studies in comparative pathology, which may be applied to the investigation of the changes which morbid types of this class experience, according to climate, nationality, race, etc., but without losing their autonomy. As a rule, we are only able to point out slight shades of difference in a study of this character. But the deviation may sometimes be characterized by more or less profound modifications, even in adjacent countries and under very similar parallels of latitude.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Physiology and Pathology of the Sympathetic System of Nerves According to experiments just published by brown-sequard, to which we shall again refer - the accuracy of which, how ever, we did not find confirmed to the full extent - we may assume that the sympathetic pupillary branches probably terminate on the surface of the brain. The connection between the centrum cilio-spinale inferius and the sympathetic takes place, as Budge and Claude Ber nard have shown, through the communicating branches of the anterior roots of the Spinal nerves.
