A person suffering from syphilis has been prescribed calcium iodide (Sol. e. 4.0-180.0 4 times a day with a tablespoon) during the course.

The Sterlitamak Zemsky Hospital has 34 beds and in the year under review it had four rooms: an infectious disease room, one for women, and two for men, the smaller of which was intended for clean operated patients, while the other was for purulent and therapeutic patients (the rooms were painted with oil paint); women after the surgeries were transferred to the general ward. The two operating theatres were clean and pusy; they were adjacent, painted with oil paint; in the case of pus, the two operating theatres were carefully fumigated with formalin, followed by soap washout and Sulema 1 : 1000. The rooms and the operating theatre were ventilated in the windows.

The list of individual observations of leukemia just presented clearly shows that the authors in most of the cases simultaneously cite indications for a short course of the disease, without attaching particular importance to this circumstance. It can be said that these cases would have remained unused if at that time the question of hemohistogenesis and hemohistopathology were not on the agenda. And only a few researchers paid attention to the existence of the disease at a fast pace.

The subject, with a significantly pronounced general arteriosclerosis, was admitted to the hospital for senile gangrene of the right foot.

Lung surgery is one of the youngest departments of surgical science. The basis for the development of methods of operative intervention in pulmonary diseases lies in the 1st possibility of preventing the danger of pneumothorax, which (danger) is currently so insignificant that some surgeons consider it even necessary to cause preliminary pneumothorax. On the other hand, the experimental data have shown the possibility of the loss of parts of the lung tissue and the conditions for the healing of its wounds.

In one case, with a slightly reduced right kidney with two arterial trunks, the left one is significantly enlarged (12.5 X 5.5 and 7.0 ctm.) And lies at the level from 12 thoracic vertebra to the upper 1/2 of the fourth lumbar vertebra.

In a healthy, strong, correct development of a woman in the course of 4 1/2 years, a tumor developed on the hard palate, which during this time reached the size of a chicken egg.

From the literature data, it is clear that the emergence of postoperative pneumonia should be linked to a variety of reasons. These are: a) chloroforic and ether anesthesia; b) immobility of patients with shallow breathing and especially with weak cardiac activity; c) ingestion of pieces of mucus, food into the respiratory tract, which can easily happen, especially with vomiting; d) cooling of patients during the operation; f) embolism of infection from the wound.

By presenting a historical overview of the beginning of the study of the disruption of the vascular system of the skin and the further development of this issue, the author, based on a study of 87 mentally ill people in the sense of red or white dermographism, makes some conclusions, and tries to give a physiological explanation of these phenomena.
