Biology of the tubercle bacillus
Abstract
Long before the discovery of the pathogen tbc, botanists used a double color: they stained their preparations with an alkaline or alcoholic solution of methylene blue, and then again with an aqueous solution of Vesuvine. He was also aware of the fact that sometimes, with such a double stain, some parts of the preparation from the plant parenchyma lose their blue color and are colored in the color of Vesuvine.
To the doctrine of the function of the gastric cell, investigated by the method of prof. S. S. Zimintsky, with heart and kidney diseases.
Abstract
It has long been known that for the proper functioning of an organism, a connection between individual organs is necessary, that a violation of the functions of individual parts of the organism important for the life can fundamentally undermine its life processes. Since the time of Galen, hypotheses have been created that clarify the mutual dependence between individual parts of the body.
About the effect of anesthesia on the kidneys
Abstract
There was a time, about 30 years after the discovery of general anesthesia, when the possibility of late chloroform death was absolutely denied, and even the authority of Casper and Langenbeck, who first described such cases, did not shake this opinion. Only convincing experiments on animals by Bastanelli, Müller and Aubertin and Fraenkel's pathological studies laid the foundation for the doctrine of late chloroform death.
On the question of the surgical treatment of goiter Сохранить перевод
Abstract
Observation and experience in the study of goiter are of great value not only for the surgeon, but also for the biologist. The goiter was already known to doctors in ancient times, and they treated it in various conservative ways, but only modern pathological and anatomical studies, laboratory experiments and successful surgical intervention resolved this issue scientifically, and the operation for goiter took a strong position among the methods of its treatment, being, on the one hand, it is quite accessible and possible for the broad masses, on the other hand, it is a completely justified biotechnical method, which, according to the huge clinical material available, seems to be the chosen and best one.
To the Abderhalden reaction method (Preliminary message)
Abstract
In the fall of 1924 prof. M.S. Malinovsky suggested that I begin to determine the pathological chemistry of endocrine glands in some gynecological diseases using the Abderhalden reaction. As is known, from the very beginning Abderhalden himself indicated two methods of producing this reaction: dialysis and optical. But the first of them was soon abandoned by Abderhalden, who found that the casings used in this method give about 30% of the marriage. In addition, the latest research by Lüttge and Merz has shown that the sleeve itself can hold the protein breakdown products, a fact that greatly devalues the entire reaction technique.
Experience of using the stalagmometric method of urine research in gynecology and obstetrics
Abstract
It is known that, under normal conditions, urine contains almost no colloidal substances, and their appearance in a more noticeable amount indicates a pathological state of the body. It would therefore be important to have at our disposal a method with which it would be possible to discover these substances not only qualitatively, but also quantitatively.
Isolation of infants as a measure to combat tuberculosis
Abstract
Over the past two decades, it has already become quite clear to everyone that tbc in children begins at a very early age, at least in the first months of life. True, very insufficient work has been done in this direction, especially if we bear in mind the exceptional importance of the question; however, the view just given about the frequency of tbc in children in the first months of life can be considered generally accepted.
On the question of neurolues
Abstract
Even during Virchow, - according to the testimony of prof. MI Molchanova, - it was known that syphilitic infection tends to be localized simultaneously in various tissues of the body and, in particular, in the nervous system, it is inclined to simultaneously affect its various parts - both peripheral nerves, and membranes, and the very substance of the brain. Molchanov explains the cases of syphilitic poliomyelitis that he observed without the participation of the spinal membranes by the penetration of the infection by the vascular route, which is consistent with the now dominant view of Sicard about the introduction of the causative agent of syphilis (Spir. Pallida) through the circulatory system into the nervous tissue.
Complement Fluctuations in Protein Therapy for Gonorrhea
Abstract
According to Weichardt, protoplasm activation is at the heart of protein therapy. The result of this activation is an increase in the normal functions of various cellular elements, including those that play a protective role in the body's fight against disease-causing agents. If we can associate the origin of complement and protective immunoids with the functional activity of certain cellular elements, then a priori we can expect an increase in these substances in the body juices under the influence of parenteral administration of foreign proteins.
Transscopy in forensic practice
Abstract
Recently, as the crime technique, as indicated by Florence, has become more sophisticated due to the careful efforts of criminals to hide the traces of their crimes, for example, in the sense of destroying blood stains, forensic medical examination has become more difficult and its nature has changed somewhat. The expert is now led, for the most part, to deal with blood spots of the smallest size, as a result of which he must use methods of research that either do not alter the blood spots at all, or require the smallest quantities of the latter for their production.

About early visceral syphilis
Abstract
In his clinical lecture on visceral syphilis (Kaz. Med. J., 1925, No. 4) prof. R. Luria says: “The possibility of syphilis affecting internal organs was considered universally recognized in the 17th century. However, - such is the power of routine and medical tradition, - the idea of the possibility of visceral syphilis is still not clearly understood, and not only by patients who turn almost exclusively to venereologists about their former infection, but also by the wide masses of doctors. "
New in the speech of mental illness
Abstract
Over the past decade, therapeutic nihilism in psychiatry, the consciousness of the complete uselessness of any kind of influence on the painful process, has begun to give way to attempts at active intervention. Our time is especially rich in such attempts, and in the latest books of German psychiatric journals, we find a number of articles on the treatment of psychosis. We will acquaint our readers with the most important of these works.

A simplified way to form an isolated stomach
Abstract
Prof. V.N.Boldyrev (Bull. Of the Battle-Creek Sanitarium a. Hosp. Clinic., 1925, vol. XX, No. 2), criticizing the classic operation of I.P. Pavlov for isolating a part of the stomach while maintaining innervation, as very difficult , which gives a significant% of animal mortality and does not always guarantee the impermeability of the septum separating the "large" stomach from the "small", and also does not allow taking a more or less significant part of the stomach as an isolated bag, offers its own simplified method of forming an isolated stomach.

Appendicostomia
Abstract
This operation was proposed and first performed by the American surgeon Weir with the goals of 1) treating diseases of the colon by removing gases through the fistula formed at the same time, 2) artificial feeding of patients and 3) medicinal effect on the mucous membrane of the large intestine in colitis by washing the intestine through the fistula ... Technically, it is very simple: one of the typical incisions of the abdominal wall is made, a vermiform appendix is found through it, a second small hole is made lateral to the incision in the abdominal wall, the apex of the appendix is brought out through it so that no more than 1 sant stands above the skin level. him, sew the end of the process behind its serous cover to the skin and close a large incision.
Splenectomy for sepsis
Abstract
According to prof. I V Zavadsky (Russian. Clin., 1925, No. 20) slow sepsis shows the surgical removal of the spleen, if the patient has a prolonged fever, enlargement of the spleen and a certain degree of anemia (of course, you must first exclude malaria, typhoid disease, tbc , lues, leukemia, lymphogranulomatosis, leishmaniasis, and Maltese fever). The presence of microbes in the blood is not a contraindication to this operation, which should not be used only in case of obvious significant signs of cardiac decompensation.
To the question of phrenicotomy
Abstract
On the basis of 10 cases of phrenicotomy and analysis of the corresponding literature, Dr. VI Yost (Sar. Vesti. Zdrav., 1925, No. 10-12) finds that this operation, technically very simple and requiring only local anesthesia, is indicated for those purulent processes in the lungs where there is a free exit of pus into the bronchi, however, some closed abscesses, especially those lying close to the chest wall, are also subject to phrenicotomy).
Glasses against heat rays
Abstract
For special works, in view of the fact that the possibility of developing cataracts under the influence of red rays has now been confirmed by Vogt's experiments on animals, special "Wärmschutzbrille" glasses were designed (Lincke, Deut.

The dependence of the vaginal flora on the general condition of the body
Abstract
The dependence of the vaginal flora on the general state of the body is established by B. Salomon (Zeit. F. Konst., Bd. 11, 1925), according to whose observations changes in vaginal secretion are in the sense of the appearance of a neutral or even alkaline reaction, an increase in the number of formed elements and a decrease in the degree purity of it - they go parallel to the general process, and sometimes appear before other clinical symptoms, as a result of which they can serve as prognostic signs.
