The southern coast of Crimea (SCC) with its wonderful, dry climate has long gained fame primarily for the fact that pulmonary tuberculosis is perfectly healed and healed here. In the old days, when there were no sanatoriums on the South Coast of Crimea, patients came here and often recovered from a difficult, seemingly irreparable process. Tuberculosis doctors who came here in poor condition, sometimes on stretchers, recovered, worked and lived up to 70 years or more (prof. Fedorov, Dmitriev, Lebedev, Shtangeev, etc.). And now many doctors work here - former tuberculosis patients. There was a time when Yalta was, one might say, inhabited by former consumptive.

Large reserves of peat and peat-like substances on the territory of the Soviet Union raise the question of their widespread use for medicinal purposes both in resorts and in out-of-resort mud baths.

Arteriosclerosis can be considered as suffering in which the contractility of the arteries is mainly insufficient; hence there is a slowdown in the advancement of blood and a decrease in metabolism. It could therefore be assumed in advance that hydrogen sulphide baths should have very favorable results if the entire spa complex of influences will contribute to this.

Fikovskaya water. For a long time the local population has been using Fikovskaya water with success for the treatment of various rheumatic diseases. The fame of Fik's sources spread to all neighboring regions. The number of patients who come here is quite significant. The local population treats the sick with water in tin baths, heating the water in enameled cast iron. In the warm season, this village turns into a primitive “resort”, where patients undergo treatment without medical supervision.

The author of the collar method, the method of segmental reflex-vegetative therapy, and the doctrine of the cervical autonomic apparatus is prof. A. E. Shcherbak. He believed that the cervical autonomic apparatus consists of the autonomic nuclei of all cervical and two upper thoracic segments of the spinal cord, the trunk of the cervical sympathetic nerve, cervical sympathetic ganglia, periarterial autonomic plexuses of the carotid and vertebral arteries. This also includes the autonomic nuclei of the vagus nerve with their peripheral nodes and branches in the neck, as well as our communicantes albi et grisei, representing the centripetal and centrifugal connections of the spinal cord with the cervical ganglia.

Anaerobic infection was a relatively common and very serious complication of war wounds. For this reason, in the literature, it is covered mainly in the aspect of military field surgery.

The etiology and pathogenesis of partial gigantism (h. Year) are still: still considered to be precisely unclear; on this occasion, the authors have proposed many theories.

The experimental work of the Sechenov Institute has established that with calcium iontophoresis, muscles can be artificially enriched with calcium using even a weak current. Further observations showed that, in addition to the introduction of calcium ions with the help of a current from the outside, a redistribution of tissues' own calcium ions also occurs (Pevzner, Blokhits), while the new ionic conjuncture excites nerve endings in the tissues and causes, according to Shcherbak, the so-called generalized reflex of a vegetative nature , which can be called from any part of the body and which has a healing effect. Even more recent studies by Shcherbak established that calcium iontophoresis by reflex stimulates the regulatory functions of the parathyroid apparatus and acts similarly to the hormone of the parathyroid gland. It is necessary to remember the role that is currently attributed to the vegetative system, as a factor affecting all types of metabolism. By acting on the autonomic nervous system, it is possible to interfere with the body's struggle against disease processes (Ratner)

In "Kazan Medical Journal" (No. 7, 1932) Osipovsky reports that in the Russian literature, operations of closing a fecal fistula by evagination are described little: Sadovsky collected 9 cases, Kartashev described 1 case and Osipovsky 1 case. Ours should be included in such cases.

In the 40s of the last century, thanks to the works of Jaubert, Gosse and others, the surgical treatment of vesicovaginal fistulas was widely used. Since then, plastic methods for closing fistulas have been used by urological surgeons and gynecologists.

Biomedgiz. Leningrad branch. 1937 208 pp. Pr. 6 rubles. 50 kopecks. The content of the book is much wider than what the reader has a right to expect, judging by its title. The book concerns not only the measurement of radiant energy and touches on not only issues of interest to doctors working in resorts. The properties of solar radiation under various conditions, the influence of water vapor, ozone, dustiness of the atmosphere, the value of scattered radiation reflected from the sky and clouds, which is usually not paid enough attention, all these and many other issues are covered in detail in the book of prof. N.I. Kalitina largely on the basis of her own long-term research.

In anaphylactic shock syndrome, a very significant role, according to a number of researchers, belongs to the liver. A. of the present communication is trying to prove this assumption by the operative removal of the liver in pigs sensitized with mutton serum (0.2 cm3 intraperitoneally). The pigs were operated on after 14 days, and as soon as they regained good health, they were injected with a permissive dose of antigen (intracardiac or intravenous).

Schiff and Akun found group-specific agglutinins in the contents of the upper intestine. Vitebskiy and Sato pointed out the presence of these substances in meconium and feces of infants during the first month of their life. In adults, these group-specific features are found in the contents of the small intestines, but are absent in the feces: here they are present only in intestinal disorders. Schiff believes that group agglutinins in adults are absent in feces as a result of the action of a special "group enzyme", which is found in the lower parts of the intestine.

Until recently, the clinical picture of embolism after inhalation was explained by the blockage of the capillaries of the brain and the related disorders of the activity of the organs most important for life.

Based on his research and observations of other authors a. believes that with a high content of antibodies in the blood, there is no bacillemia and hematogenous rash does not occur.
