From the editor
Abstract
This February marks a quarter of a century since the death of Vyacheslav Avksentievich Manassein, a man who was "the living conscience of a Russian doctor" during his lifetime. The tremendous experiences that took place after the death of V. A-cha blocked his bright image from the eyes of the modern generation of Russian doctors. Now that our life has entered a calmer channel, the editors of the Kazan Medical Journal consider it their duty to remind fellow doctors about this true “teacher of life” and his precepts, especially since V. Ah was a Kazan by origin, and the editor of the Journal had the good fortune to be one of - alas! - the few who survived, his direct disciples.
Vyacheslav Avksentievich Manassein. Biographical sketch (with portrait)
Abstract
February 13 Art. Art. 1926 will mark 25 years since the great doctor-teacher of life Vyacheslav Avksentievich Manassein left us, and all the good things associated with this dear name vividly rises before our eyes. The past 25th anniversary, outstanding for its grandiose events in Russian life, will forever remain memorable in the history of the country; but it overshadowed by its magnitude much that had happened before these years, including the glorious life and the charming figure of the doctor-teacher, who played a certain role in the preparation of the events experienced. The duty of us, who had the unforgettable happiness of learning from Vyacheslav Avksentievich, is to revive in the memory of contemporaries and give young doctors at least a faint sketch of who was and what the “clergyman of the secular church”, a true teacher of life and friend of the disadvantaged, was doing. His life was unusually modest and simple, without any loud and brilliant speeches and events, proceeding in tireless work and care for others; but, as a true teacher of life, V.A. can stand next to two outstanding Russian doctors: N.I. Pirogov and S.P. Botkin.
From the memoirs of Vyacheslav Avksentievich Manassein
Abstract
I first met V.A. in 1881, when I transferred from Moscow University to the third year of the Military Medical Academy. and V.A. taught us a course in private pathology and therapy, and in the evenings he went to the clinic every day with curators. Manassein's lectures were unusually lively. Possessing great erudition, constantly enriching his knowledge with the tireless study of current medical literature, he was a walking encyclopedia. His memory was amazing, but he still did not trust her and brought a pile of books to the lecture to acquaint us with the latest acquisitions from the original source.
From the memoirs of V. A. Manassein
Abstract
My memories date back to 1884, when I lived in St. Petersburg and worked (preparing a thesis) in the laboratory of prof. NP Ivanovsky at the Military Medical Academy. Bykov was then the head of the Academy, prof. N.P. Dobroslavin. The central figures in the professorship of the Academy were S. P. Botkin, V. L. Gruber, V. V. Pashutin, K. F. Slavyansky and V. A. Manassein.
From "Introduction to the Course of the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic"
Abstract
I greet you, comrades, on a major, great turning point in your academic life. In the first two courses, you were introduced to the preparatory sciences for medicine like physics, chemistry, anatomy, physiology. Then last year, in the third year, you already penetrated, so to speak, on the eve of medicine proper - you stocked up on information on general and specific pathology, diagnostics, pharmacology, etc.
Changes in the morphological composition of the blood during congestion
Abstract
One of the main works of my late teacher, Professor V.A.Manassein, relates to the study of changes in blood during experimental fever. The data of this work are still cited in monographs on this issue. Vyacheslav Avksentievich, one of the first Russian doctors, worked on the study of morphological changes in blood in various pathological conditions and, sending me to work abroad, he strongly recommended that I pay special attention to this department of pathology and the clinic. Wishing to mark the memory of my teacher in some way, I allow myself in this small work to report the results of my clinic's research on the morphology of blood in cardiac patients during the period of disturbance of the compensation of cardiac activity.
Schemes and individualization in spa treatment
Abstract
Probably, every doctor more than once in his time heard the instructions of professors about the need for a broad individualization of treatment. As a student of the unforgettable Vyacheslav Avksentievich Manassein, I especially remember his inspired words about the destructive harm of a template in this area. And indeed, summing up your own observations, you involuntarily come to the same conclusion that templates and schemes harm both the patients who are used and the doctor himself, whose thought ceases to be free and creative and gradually learns to fit into previously prepared forms, trying to drive away painful doubts and work in a light atmosphere of pre-drawn diagrams, in conditions of least resistance.
On the treatment of chronic traumatic dislocations
Abstract
I think that no one will dispute the benefits of bloodless repositioning of chronic dislocations in comparison with the surgical method of their treatment. The fact that many different methods are proposed for bloody treatment, and each author defends the advantages of his own method, speaks for the fact that treatment with a knife has significant disadvantages.
On the casuistry of independent extraperitoneal ruptures of the bladder
Abstract
In 1908, I described a case of spontaneous intraperitoneal rupture of the bladder. Since then, in Russian literature, I have come across only one article by Belitsky devoted to this issue. In this detailed article Belitsky describes a case of intraperitoneal rupture of the bladder, operated back in 1909 by prof. I. A. Praksin, and reports statistics of both Russian authors - including my case - and foreign ones. From the data of Naumann cited by him in the article, it is clear that in the Salgram clinic for 12 years, for 20 thousand patients, bladder ruptures were observed only in 3 cases - in 2 intraperitoneal and in 1 extraperitoneal; Rokitsky for 15 years gives 12 cases, among which in 8 there was an intraperitoneal rupture and in 4 extraperitoneal rupture.
Characteristics of the generic functions of a woman in connection with the influence of war and hunger on her (based on materials from the maternity ward of the Smolensk Gubernia Hospital)
Abstract
The World War and the revolution that followed it brought not only a lot of new things into social and personal life, especially in Russia, but they fundamentally disrupted the old way of life. The time we are experiencing has affected all aspects of our life, and, unfortunately, significantly increased the pathological processes in it. This opened up a wide scope for medical practice. Epidemics, many new diseases, an increase in morbidity in general, etc. - should have attracted the attention of doctors of all specialties. No less than others, obstetricians and gynecologists were interested in this, because the life changes associated with the war and the revolution affected not only the male, but also the female half of our population.
A case of 16 years of sexual activity in the absence of the vagina and uterus
Abstract
The complete absence of internal genital organs in a woman is not so rare in practice, and enough cases with aplasia of the vagina and uterus are described in the literature. It is usually indicated that, in the case of sexual activity, coitus often occurs in the dilated urethra.
A case of a full-term secondary peritoneal pregnancy (with fig.)
Abstract
While primary peritoneal pregnancy is the greatest rarity, and even the very possibility of it is rejected by some authors, secondary peritoneal pregnancy is known to be observed quite often. However, cases of full-term pregnancies of this kind do not occur so often, which prompts me to describe one such case that I operated on.
On the casuistry of acquired childhood syphilis
Abstract
The extremely rich literature of childhood syphilis is devoted mainly to congenital syphilis. The literature of acquired childhood syphilis is relatively poor, which is quite understandable if we recall, first, that acquired childhood syphilis is immeasurably less common than hereditary, and secondly, that in its clinical manifestations it does not differ at all from adult syphilis. That is why, when describing acquired childhood syphilis, the center of attention is not so much the picture of the disease itself, but the etiological moments, ways and methods of infection.
On the question of the responsibility of doctors - gynecologists and surgeons for leaving instruments and other objects in the abdominal cavity of patients with celiac disease
Abstract
In No. 12 of the "Medical Newspaper" for the expired 1925, in the chronicle section, a note was published. This note testifies that the question posed in the title of this article is really ripe for us and urgently requires one or another resolution.
Reviews
On the specificity of the tuberculin reaction
Abstract
The classic studies of R. Koch'a showed for the first time that an organism infected with tbc reacts in a completely different way to the introduction of tbc cultures and various cultures derived from them. drugs than a normal animal that has not yet had a chance to get acquainted with the tbc antigen. Koch's main experiments boil down to the following: if you inject a healthy guinea pig with a pure culture of tbc rods, then, as a rule, the wound at the site of the injection heals up and seems to heal in the first days: however, then, within 10-14 days, a solid a nodule that soon opens and forms a place ulcerating until the death of the animal; at the same time, swelling of the nearest lymph glands develops, and later the generalization of the process occurs.
Surgical clinics of modern Berlin. (Impressions from a business trip abroad in the fall of 1925)
Abstract
If the doctors of the capitals and large provincial centers have the opportunity, at least from the periodical foreign literature they receive, to get acquainted with the achievements of surgery in Germany and other countries, then the workers of the deep Russian province are deprived of this opportunity either. In most cases, they are forced to be content with only brief abstracts published in the domestic periodicals. This explains the aspirations and interest with which I went to Germany at the first opportunity.

About excretion of uric acid
Abstract
In contrast to the data of Steudel'ya M. Ya. Kalf-Calif (Doctor. Delo, 1925, No. 21) in his experiments found that there is no definite relationship between the intensity of putrefactive fermentation processes in the intestine and the release of uric acid.
Antagonism of insulin and extracts from the posterior lobe of the epididymis
Abstract
Antagonism of insulin and extracts from the posterior lobe of the epididymis Mochlig and Ainslee (Journ. Ot Am. Med. Ass., 1925, May 9) found on the basis of their experiments that the introduction of an extract from the posterior lobe of the epididymis causes weak glycemia in rabbits ; when administered together with insulin, it delays the latter-induced drop in blood sugar; finally. with insulin hypoglycemic convulsions, its introduction causes, together with an increase in blood sugar, a rapid disappearance of convulsions.
Adsorption of protein breakdown products and toxins by erythrocytes
Abstract
It has been established that amino acids enter the bloodstream through the intestinal walls in an unchanged form, and both these substances and parenterally administered protein breakdown products cannot be detected either in serum or in whole blood soon after their introduction. BI Zbarsky (Zhurn. Exp. Biol., 1925, No. 1) explains this fact by the adsorption of protein breakdown products by blood erythrocytes, from which these products can be easily separated by simple boiling, and which transfer these products to the cells of the body.
Blood picture in esophageal cancer.
Abstract
Master (Journ of Amer. Med. Ass., 1925, No. 10), examining the blood of 15 patients suffering from primary cancer of the esophagus, found in them either a normal blood composition, or even an increase in the number of red blood cells against the norm.
The relationship between nephro- and cholelithiasis
Abstract
The phenomenon of the often occurring coexistence of renal and gallbladder lithiasis, which has long been known to clinicians, prompted Chauifard and Debray (Presse med., 1925, No. 9) to investigate the question of whether there is a relationship between them.
To functional diagnostics of the liver
Abstract
At one time, Roch proposed a test with methylene blue for this purpose: he injected the patients with the last peros in the amount of 2 mg. and watched the appearance of this paint in the urine; in people with a healthy liver, provided that the kidneys are intact, the blue is delayed, and the urine remains unstained, while with a diseased liver, the color of urine becomes more or less greenish-blue.
About the localization of tuberculosis
Abstract
According to A. Ya. Steinberg (Vopr. Tuberk., 1925, No. 5), tbc tends to be localized not in one organ, but in a whole group of organs (tissues), and these groups are not random, but are determined, apparently, by a common embryological origin.
The mechanism of immunity in tbc.
Abstract
Experimental studies of V. A. Lyubarsky, N. L. Zhivago and A. F. Korzhinskaya (Arch. Exp. Biol. And Med., 1925, No. 1) convinced these authors that bacteriolysis (lipolysis) of tbc bacilli in immune the body does not occur - the immunity to tbc is of a cellular nature, namely, in the immune body, tbc bacilli are fixed in order to isolate them from the body, which is achieved by the formation of tubercles with all their subsequent transformations. Along with this, there is a direct release of tbc rods from the body, which occurs through the bile and intestines. The specified mechanism of immunity is the same regardless of whether we are dealing with virulent or low-virulent bacilli. The same is the mechanism of immunity in relation to acid-resistant saprophytes.
In the technique of knee joint resection with tbc lesion
Abstract
K.K.Tsepernik (Tr. I Congress of Khir. Levob. Ukr., 1925) considers resection especially indicated for tbc of the knee joint with subluxations and contractures, but in the absence of fistulas, and this operation should be performed extracapsularly, under the control of X-rays.
Mud therapy for surgical diseases
Abstract
Prof. VI Razumovsky (Med. Sat. Kavk. Min. V., issue 2, 1925), considers the following surgical diseases to be indicative of mud therapy; first of all, various forms of articular diseases, especially rheumatic ones with a chronic course, intra-articular and periarticular exudates, pain, stiffness, etc., as well as non-started gouty (on the contrary, infectious and toxic forms are more difficult to treat with mud), then chronic osteomyelitis and their consequences , thrombophlebitis (especially of gouty origin), consequences of varicose processes (dermatitis, leg ulcers, etc.), consequences of inflammatory processes in the abdominal cavity (perigastritis, pericholecystitis, periapendicitis, peri-and parametritis, etc.), ischias, chronic prostatitis, consequences trauma, some forms of tbc and, finally, angiosclerotic gangrene.
Cause of death from burns
Abstract
Based on 5 clinical observations and 5 experimental studies, Olbrycht (according to the ref. In "Gig. Labor", 1925, 10) comes to the conclusion that the complete or significant disappearance of epinephrine from the adrenal glands plays an important role in the origin of death from burns. turn, is in connection with the decomposition of proteins in the burnt tissue. Hence, the treatment of burns should be aimed at the speedy elimination of dead tissue and stimulation of the adrenal glands by introducing significant doses of epinephrine.
An open way to treat burns
Abstract
Ya. L. Povolotskaya (Tr. I S'ezda Khir. Lev. Ukr., 1925) ardently speaks out in favor of such a method, which presents a number of advantages over the use of the bandage. The surrounding burned area and the burned surfaces themselves are washed several times with alcohol, the bubbles are opened at the base, the hanging scraps of burned tissue are cut off, the undamaged tissue around the burn bridge is smeared with some indifferent ointment, for example. Vaseline, in case of need, the wound is protected from dust, flies, etc. - and this is the end of it. In the future, all care consists in daily cleansing of the healthy skin surrounding the burn with alcohol and lubrication with an indifferent ointment, while the doctor does not touch the wound itself.
Complications of lumbar anesthesia
Abstract
According to the conclusion of LN Poznyanov (Vesti. Sovr. Med., 1925, No. 11), the main danger of lumbar anesthesia is from a drop in blood pressure. To avoid this danger, some authors propose to inject caffeine 5 hours before the operation, others advise adding the latter, in an amount of 0.25-0.5, to the anesthetic solution, and still others, 2-3 hours before anesthesia, repeatedly inject Digalen to the patient. fourth - 0.003-0.004 strychnine. Reschke recommends 3 min. before anesthesia, infect intramuscularly 1 K. Art. adrenaline and, in addition, the same amount should be administered intravenously immediately after anesthesia.

Modification of Leriche's operation
Abstract
Among the major disadvantages of the operation of denudation of the vascular wall according to Eeriehe'y are: 1) the thinning of the vascular wall caused by the operation with a violation of its nutrition, which can lead to sequential rupture and profuse bleeding; 2) compression of the vascular trunk by scar tissue with impaired peripheral circulation and the return of those phenomena for the elimination of which the operation is undertaken.
Ichthyol for articular rheumatism
Abstract
Süssmann (Münch. M Woch., 1925, No. 34), on the basis of many years of experience, warmly recommends the use in chronic, especially recurrent forms of articular rheumatism 1% aqueous solution of ichthyol, 10-40 drops., 3 times a day, in cold black coffee ... S. attributes the therapeutic effect of this agent to the sulfur contained in the latter.

Arkh., 1925, no. 32) has developed extensive material covering 933 words. hematuria (cases of hematuria depending on acute gonorrhoid infection and all kinds of injuries are not included here). Most of the bleeding (46.9%) was found to be related to tumors of the urinary tract; stones were the cause of hematuria in 18.5%, tuberculosis in 11.7%, infection in 10% and nephritis in 3%.
Decapsulation of the kidneys with anuria due to mercuric chloride poisoning
Abstract
A. A. Chugaev (Tr. I Congress of Khir. Levob. Ukraine, 1925), on the basis of clinical observations, considers renal decapsulation quite indicated in those cases of mercuric chloride poisoning, where anuria has developed. Of the 5 such cases observed by the author, in 2 only this operation helped to save patients. At the same time, decapsulation sometimes gives an effect when it is applied unilaterally. In favor of the beneficial effect of this operation with sublimate nephrosis, the results of experimental studies by M.L. Meerson (ibid.) Also speak.
To the diagnosis of ureteral stones
Abstract
Reinecke (according to the ref. In New Khir. Arch., 1925, No. 32) draws attention to a new sign of entrapment of stones in the lower part of the ureter, namely, to a sharp increase and strong sensitivity of the inguinal lymph glands on the same side.
Local blood circulation of the eye
Abstract
Proceeding from the position that the local blood circulation of the eye affects its tone - on the one hand, and the function of the retina depends on it - on the other, Pletneva and Manyukova (Arch. Of., 1925, No. 2) set themselves the task of.
To the pathogenesis of glaucoma
Abstract
Intraocular pressure is a reflection of the pressure in the vascular tract system, which can be judged by the pressure in the retinal network. Normal systolic pressure in a. centralis retinae is 70 mm. Hg, and diastolic - 30-35 mm., The pressure in the veins is equal to the intraocular pressure.
Insect larvae in the human eye
Abstract
While in previous years these larvae were found in the human eye, as a rarity, and were almost exclusively observed in tropical countries, recently, according to Cecchini (ref. In Zentr. F. Ophth., 1925), they began to be observed often and in Europe. In all cases, fly larvae lay in large numbers in the conjunctival sac. After removing them, there was a complete cure of the conjunctivitis that existed in patients.
Immunity in trachoma

In 1919, Schick, in Vienna, observed one woman? regarding which he could establish the following phenomenon: if she took flowers (apemons) with her bare hand during menstruation, then the latter quickly faded; if she took the flowers with her hands, which were wearing rubber gloves, the flowers remained fresh.
Bilirubin and bile acids in the blood of pregnant women
Abstract
Süsstrunk (Zeit. F. Geb. u. Gyn., Bd. LXXXIX. H. I) in his studies could establish in pregnant women a 35% increased bilirubin content in the blood, while during childbirth this figure rose to 71%. The author could not notice any parallelism between this phenomenon and the increased content of bile acids in the blood usually observed during pregnancy. S. sees the reason for this phenomenon in the metabolic changes inherent in pregnancy, but not in the stagnation of bile. Among the diseases of pregnant women, the author did not find an increased content of bilirubin in the blood with the "kidney of pregnant women", and with eclampsia. on the contrary, I saw a significant increase in it.
Uncomplicated lateral position therapy
Abstract
Almost all obstetricians agree that with the transverse position of the fetus, since the bladder is intact and the rotation with external methods has failed, it is necessary to wait for the full opening of the pharynx, immediately after that - to make an internal rotation and immediately afterwards the fetus is removed.
Episiotomy
Abstract
On the extensive material of the Amsterdam clinic van Tongeren (Zeit. F. Geb. u. Gyn., Bd. LXXXIX. H. I) convinced that the obstetrician in most cases is not able to say whether a woman in labor will have a perineal rupture or not ... Further, he found that septic diseases after a preventive episiotomy occur just as often, even more often than after perineal ruptures, and equally does not guarantee episiotomy against consecutive scar pain.

Abstract
Hess (Zeit. F. Kindhlk., Bd. 39) illuminated vegetable oils with a quartz lamp from a distance of 33 centimeters. In one hour. The oils acquired a fishy smell and anti-rachitic properties. The addition of such oil in the amount of 0.1 to the diet, which can cause rickets in rats, protects them from disease. Antirachitic properties are due to the unsaponifiable fraction of the oil, consisting of phytosterol.

Honorrhoid stomatitis
Abstract
Klepper (Derm. Woch., 1925, no. 39) describes an interesting case of gonorrhoid stomatitis in a hospital nurse with a history of recurrent aphthous stomatitis. 4 days after the usual relapse, the patient began to care for the child suffering from gonoblenorrhea, and after the next 4 days, she had a sudden deterioration of the usual process in the mouth: severe pain while eating, swelling of the tongue, fever, sores near the tip of the tongue, in the corner of the mouth and along the edge of the lower gum, with severe inflammation. Gonococci were found in smears and cultures of ulcer discharge. This case is interesting, as it contradicts the old ideas about the immunity of the oral mucosa of adults in relation to gonorrhoid infection.
Herpes febrilis и herpes genitalis
Abstract
It is still unclear whether the causative agents of both of these diseases are identical or different. Lipschutz (Arch. F. Derm. U. Sypb., 1925, Bd. 149) indicates the difference between them on the basis of: 1) his own observations during experimental infection of human skin with a virus of both forms: 2) different duration of evolution of keratitis in a rabbit after vaccination of both viruses and 3) is different in histological skin lesions. A comparison of a number of clinical observations also indicates a difference in the etiological moment for both herpes species.
