10 Years of Soviet Healthcare

Batunin M.P.

Abstract

On July 21, 1918, the regulations on the health authorities were published. The new People's Commissariat under the leadership of N. A. Semashko brought together the disparate affairs of public health in the old days. Thus the work of Soviet health care from the very beginning took the direction, which was formulated in the program of the All-Union Communist Party: "The basis of its activities in the field of protection of public health the All-Union Communist Party believes in conducting extensive recreational and sanitary measures aimed at preventing diseases", which distinguished it from the work of health care bodies in pre-revolutionary times. Despite extremely limited financial resources, the new People's Commissariat significantly developed the cause of public health, calling to life such sprouts which had previously found no ground for their development.

On the mechanism of periodic activity of the digestive apparatus outside of digestion

Shcherbakov S.A., Puchkov N.V., Dmitriev V.R.

Abstract

About work of the digestive apparatus outside the period of digestion we had till 1904 only separate, fragmentary indications (Bruno, Shirokikh, Walter, Cheshkov, Klodnitsky, Katznelson, and only with occurrence of capital research of Prof. V.N.Boldyrev this question became a subject for all-round and wide studying. Periodic activity of the digestive apparatus has been established on many animals, Boldyrev on dogs, Mangold on birds, Boldyrev on chickens, Boldyrev and Shcherbakov on cats and, finally, S. Anichkov on man. According to the assurance of Prof. Boldyrev, such activity is peculiar to all animals.

Sputum cytology and its diagnostic value

Kramov N.A.

Abstract

Biermer's classification of sputum based on its visible macroscopic properties, established back in the 60s, is still the basis of the relevant diagnostic departments. The bacteriological era of the last decades of the 19th century, having put the study of pathogens at the forefront in the study of sputum, has left aside the issue of cytology and chemical properties of the constituent elements of sputum. Whereas even for the district hospital microscopic examination of urine in suspected kidney disease is considered mandatory, and morphological examination of blood in inflammatory diseases is becoming a common laboratory method, cytological examination of sputum even in the clinical setting is still not performed. The reason for this may be seen in the fact that the degenerated form elements of sputum are both more difficult to stain and are distributed unevenly in the smear due to the admixture of large amounts of mucus and albumin; this is not the case with urine and effusions, where the distribution of elements is more even, their degeneration less pronounced, and the above impurities are absent.

Erythrocyte sedimentation reaction (ESR) in acute infections

Volter B.A., Alexandrov K.G.

Abstract

Described by R. Fahrаеus and well developed recently RPE does not cease to attract the attention of clinicians as one of the subtle biological reactions. Without going into the history of this reaction, which has been described more than once, we note that its biological basis is still largely unclear to us. Despite the work of a number of researchers, among whom there are world-famous names such as Abderhalden, Michaelis, Rona, Bürker, etc., we still do not have a generally recognized theory explaining all aspects of the phenomenon in question. The most recognized is the colloidal-chemical theory, according to which the acceleration of RPE depends on the increase of positively charged globulins in blood plasma, and the deceleration depends on the increase of negatively charged albumin.

Mortality from tbc among the Tatar population of Kazan

Oyfebakh M.I.

Abstract

If the first years of our tbc organization went under the sign of rapid and rapid growth, then in the last 2-3 years Soviet medicine has set it a number of specific tasks of in-depth study of the tbc problem as a whole. One of its small parts is a summary of tbc mortality material for our Union. The forthcoming IV Tbc Congress should summarize the work done by the dispensaries in this direction, for on the basis of these figures it will be possible to deploy our anti-tuberculosis construction and accentuate the fight against this social evil where it is particularly prevalent. The favorable figures, i.e. the decrease in the tbc mortality rate in recent years in many cities of the USSR, are especially interesting and important when compared with the state of this issue in the national republics and provinces.

Several cases of treatment of pernicious anemia with liver

Davydov P.D.

Abstract

The etiology of malignant anemia is still a mystery. For a long time the disease has been attributed to the presence of the intestinal worm (bothriocephalus latus); observations show, however, that many people carry this worm in their small intestines, while very few people develop pernicious anemia.

On the treatment of hemorrhoids with sclerosing injections

Gremyachkin M.N.

Abstract

The frequent recurrence of hemorrhoids after surgical treatment, on the one hand, and the reluctance of many patients to undergo surgery, on the other hand, lead to the search for non-bloody ways to treat this disease. Of these methods, physiotherapeutic methods (diathermy, electrocoagulation), Boas's method of coagulation injections (alcohol) and the method of fibrous (sclerosing) injections are widespread. The latter method is used mainly in France, and in the hands of Sicard, Gaugier and Bensade it gave very good results. Having acquainted with it for the first time at the beginning of 1926, at the clinic of Bensadey, I widely used it during 2 years, first at the hospital therapeutic clinic of Samara University, then at the hospital of Dorzdrav. The present report is the fruit of 2 years of observation over the results of such treatment.

A new way to treat male sexual impotence

Vakulenko M.

Abstract

In my long years of practice I have seen many men, often young men, suffering from complete sexual impotence. They go from one specialist to another and in most cases do not get help. I have not yet seen such patients cured. And the consequences of such illnesses are known to every doctor, and I cannot forget one of my companions, who after marriage, finding himself utterly helpless, began to be treated, achieved nothing and committed suicide, leaving his wife a "virgin". I personally used many ways to treat such patients, sacral injections, bougery, cauterization of seminal tubercle through urethroscope, ligation of vasa deferentia according to Steinach'y, but the results were always deplorable. I even used hypnosis, which for some reason has been taken up lately, as if they had made a discovery. All these methods, however, turned out to be invalid or of little validity.

Autohemotherapy for mastitis

Guzikov V.A.

Abstract

Currently, the essence of autohemotherapy is explained by most authors as follows: first, blood contains protein bodies and, being administered parenterally, acts as protein therapy; second, it contains substances that excite the sympathetic nervous system (lipoids, salts and products of protein decomposition); third, finally, the blood of the patient contains antigens and antibodies of this infection and the toxicosis caused by it, i.e. specific proteins.

Experience with local infiltration anesthesia in gynecological surgeries

Timofeev A.I.

Abstract

The dangers of general anesthesia, especially chloroform anesthesia, have prompted surgeons in all countries to strive to replace general inhalation anesthesia with safer methods when administering anesthesia during operations. In terms of limiting anesthetic trauma, the ideal method of anesthesia should be one that does not introduce any new damage into the body of the operated person outside the operating field. This requirement determines the very nature of anesthesia as local anesthesia.

Blood groups in children

Belyaev A.A., Chekalin I.A.

Abstract

Until recently, the question of belonging to blood groups in Landsteiner's sense has interested many authors. A large number of works in this direction has already been accumulated. Beginning with the guiding studies of Dungern and Hirszfeld, Jansk and Moss and ending with the recent works, one can see how medical thought in various countries has done much work to trace the grouping of people by blood according to the topography of examination sites and from this point of view understand the problem of heredity, give certain guidelines for the clinic in blood transfusion, gemotherapy and homoplasty, open new ways of forensic medical examination, etc. A great deal of experience has been gained in this respect. According to Prof. Rubashkin's calculations, 29,000 examinations were carried out by Russian authors alone until 1927.

Observations on vaccine therapy and out-vaccine therapy for epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis

Lopatin G.M.

Abstract

There is no well-collected material on the incidence of epidemic cerebrospinal meningitis among children in the USSR. The most comprehensive monograph by Breitman is more than 20 years old. Judging by anecdotal evidence and the rather large number of papers on the subject, cases of the disease are widespread and frequent, and in recent years small epidemic outbreaks and sporadic cases have been occurring more and more frequently. Over a period of 30 years, according to Prof. Kisel, 80 cases of cerebrospinal meningitis have occurred in the former Olginsky Children's Hospital in Moscow. The clinic of infants of the 2nd M. G. W. (Frishman) counts 35 cases in a shorter period. Our material indicates a higher incidence of the disease in children specifically in recent years, with infants being affected more frequently.

Treatment of malaria

Sherman S.I.

Abstract

As mentioned above, the Ukrainian Tropical Institute widely uses subcutaneous injections of methylene blue together with quinine in pl. praecox: the lowest recurrence rate is obtained just by this method of treatment. The school of Prof. Kisel, on the contrary, seems to be skeptical about methylene blue; thus, Belyaev in his conclusions states that methylene blue has very little effect on malaria. Prof. Alekseev in his article "To specific treatment of malaria" says that methylene blue apparently acts as a substance that excites defenses, but is not, unlike quinine, a parasiticidal substance; it gives relatively good results for m. quartana.

To the action of vitamin D. Kreitmair and Moll (Münch. med. Woch., 1928, No. 15)

Abstract

While most hormones are known to cause poisoning in humans and animals in large doses, vitamins, which also show their specific action in the smallest doses, were previously considered quite harmless. Since it has been discovered that vitamin D is nothing more than ergosterol activated by ultraviolet rays, it has been possible to manufacture this vitamin in unlimited large quantities and to check experimentally the question of hypervitaminosis.

The nervous system as a source of antibody production in relapsing typhus. Plant (Wien. kl. Woch., 1928, No. 28)

Weinstein A.

Abstract

The generally accepted position that the hemato-encephalic barrier serves as an obstacle for the penetration of antibodies from blood into liquor is true only when the cerebral membranes are unaffected; in acute infections (e.g., artificial recurrence) with irritation of the cerebral membranes the barrier passability of antibodies increases dramatically. In addition, a number of carefully conducted experiments Plant'y managed to prove that by direct introduction of antigen into liquor (for example, by introducing rabbit red blood cells of ram into liquor) in the latter it is possible to cause appearance of antibodies, and thus the nervous system should be looked at as a possible source of production of the latter.

Arthritis in the region of the pulmonary apex as a cause of erroneous recognition of tuberculosis. K. Käding (Deut. med. W., 1928, No. 21)

Abstract

There are cases of pain in the region of the pulmonary apex and between the shoulder blades, where x-rays reveal arthritic denticles on the joints of the upper rib ramifications. Since rubbing can sometimes be heard and felt here as well, it is easy to suspect a tubercular process where it does not actually exist.

On the basis of experimental and clinical data Dr. S.V. Heinatz was convinced that the blood poured into the abdominal cavity is absorbed mainly through the lymphatic system of the diaphragm. Within 24 hours the absorption of blood usually ends even with large hemorrhages, and the tilted position of the body according to Trendelenburg accelerates the absorption by almost 2 times.

Abstract

Summing up his observations, the author states first of all that the subcutaneous remedies do not act better than those taken internally, that their side effects are observed more often in weak subjects, and that some remedies have a locking effect and should therefore be taken together with laxatives. Of the individual remedies for sleep disorders, Valerian, Bromural, Adaline, etc. are often sufficient.

T. P. Krasnobaev. Bone and joint tbc in children. General part. Gosizdat, 1928. C. in pers. 4 rub.

Ratner L.

Abstract

K-v's bone and tuberculosis credo is well known to Russian surgeons by his speeches, always very bright, at surgical and tbc congresses and at meetings of the Moscow and Leningrad Surgical Societies. T. K. K. is a promoter of the conservative direction in the therapy of bone and joint tbc. The sanatorium in Sokolniki, run by him, serves as an excellent place for such propaganda. Many of the Russian surgeons who visited this sanatorium and saw with their own eyes the excellent results of the treatment used here, left for their places with the firm intention to give up the knife and create in themselves at least a faint semblance of what they saw in Moscow.

Society of Physicians at Kazan University. Vol. 24, No. 10 (1928)

Abstract

Session 30/V.
Dr. Ya. D. Pechnikov demonstrated a patient with malarial urethrocystitis. The patient denied venereal diseases. After a number of attacks of malaria he developed typical urethro-cystitis, epididymitis and prostatitis. After treatment with quina, all phenomena disappeared. No malaria plasmodium was found in the blood. Gonococci in urine and secretions were also not found. The patient's wife was healthy. In the debates of Drs. Yasnitsky and Drs. Batunin, Mirkin and Bikkenin explained this disease by the weakening of the organism under the influence of malaria, which enabled the vulgar flora to cause this disease, but it is very difficult to speak of a malaria disease here.

Questions and answers. Vol. 24, No. 10 (1928)

Abstract

How do you eliminate an alkaline reaction in the vagina? Subp. No. 1848.
Answer: It is necessary to find out what determines this reaction, and depending on this prescribe treatment. Very often an alkaline reaction of the sleeve secretion takes place in a woman with gonorrhea. According to the latest research, we can think that such a reaction may also stand in connection with ovarian dysfunction. In the first case, gonorrhea must be cured to eliminate it, and in the second case, appropriate treatment of the existing oophoritis must be prescribed. Prof. V. Gruzdev.
