Side 22 - German articles which comprise the work. Dr. Northrup, having been associated with Dr. O'Dwyer at every step in the perfection of intubation tubes, is particularly fitted to describe this aspect of the treatment of diphtheria. Professor Jurgensen's monograph on Measles unquestionably...
Side 259 - Atlas and Epitome of Abdominal Hernias. By PRIVATDOCENT DR. GEORG SULTAN, of Gottingen. Edited, with additions, by WILLIAM B. COLEY, MD, Clinical Lecturer on Surgery, Columbia University (College of Physicians and Surgeons)^ New York.
Side 216 - I would desire this evening to lay down or enforce a principle that is, I think, not sufficiently, and often not at all, considered in practical medicine and surgery. It is founded on a physiological basis, and it is of the highest practical importance. The principle is that the brain cortex, and especially the mental cortex, has such a position in the economy that it has to be reckoned with more or less as a factor for good or evil in all diseases of every organ, in all operations, and in all injuries.
Side 259 - This new atlas covers one of the most important subjects in the entire domain of medical teaching, since these hernias are not only exceedingly common, but the frequent occurrence of strangulation demands extraordinarily quick and energetic surgical intervention.
Side 434 - This committee was directed to "inquire into the use of preservatives and coloring matters in the preservation and coloring of food," and to report : (1) Whether the use of such materials or any of them, for the preservation and coloring of food, in certain quantities, is injurious to health, and, if so, in what proportions does their use become injurious.
Side 275 - ... lunacy, must make out that the person restrained was actually a lunatic. In this case a plea to a declaration for assaulting the plaintiff and imprisoning him in a lunatic asylum was held bad, which alleged that, before and at the time of the alleged imprisonment, the plaintiff had conducted himself as a person of unsound mind and incapable of taking care of himself, and as a person proper to be taken charge of and detained for treatment; and that medical certificates of insanity had been given....
Side 389 - I have twice produced clonic spasms in myself by compression of one carotid. The first effect on applying the compression was a sensation in the eye on the same side ; then there followed a sensory march of formication down the opposite side of the body. This began in the fingers, spread up the arm, then down the leg. Finally clonic spasms of the hand occurred, accompanied by an intense feeling of vertigo and alarm.
Side 368 - That gelatin injections may, with proper precautions, be given subcutaneously with safety. 2. That they produce a marked and speedy decrease in all the subjective and in some of the objective symptoms presented by internal aneurisms. 3. That this relief of symptoms is only explainable on the theory of a diminution in pressure effects from shrinkage in size of the aneurismal sac. 4. That this diminution in size, accompanied with marked increase in the resistancy of the tumor wall, was capable of physical...
Side 323 - That the temporary abolition or lessening of the acuity of taste may be found to exist over the anterior and anaesthetic portion of the tongue for some days after the operation. 3. That this temporary loss of function may possibly be occasioned by some interference with chorda transmission brought about...
Side 259 - During the last decade the operative side of this subject has been steadily growing in importance, until now it is absolutely essential to have a book treating of its surgical aspect. This present atlas does this to an admirable degree. The illustrations are not only very numerous, but they excel, in the accuracy of the portrayal of the conditions represented, those of any other work upon abdominal hernias with which we are familiar.
