Although The Speculum contains little of the students' work, it is always usefully interesting by virtue of the articles written by our teachers. It is hoped that the generosity of the donors of the above will inspire others to make much needed additions to the shelves. - today we are still ignorant of the cause, although we are much further ahead in our knowledge of the changes in the biochemistry of blood and urine, each new discovery gives birth to another hypothesis.

The lesions are usually those of an acute nephritis, in which degeneration and necrosis of the epithelium of the convoluted tubules - the so-called nephrosis - the glomeruli are left unaffected. It has long been known that the death of the fetus has a beneficial effect on the disease. Recovery, with subsequent recurrence of convulsions and then termination in any of the above ways.

Eden distinguishes between mild and severe types, with two of the following signs indicating a severe case.

The treatment of the true preeclamptic must be applied quickly and persistently, and it must be thorough.

A Case for Commentarp

It is usually in the upper right part of the abdomen, but it can be in the middle or even to the left of the midline. It is interesting to note how variable the position of the gallbladder is, as shown by films taken when it was filled with dye. If the shadow of the gallbladder does not appear at all, organic changes are generally present.

This may be due to a thickened wall, which limits the capacity of the gallbladder, or because the contents of the intestines are of such a nature that they cannot be displaced by the dye. Chronic cholecystitis is more often manifested by a reduction in the intensity of the shadow of the gallbladder than by its total absence in films. Thickening of the gallbladder wall, the presence of immovable contents, and partial or complete occlusion of the cystic duct are all thought to play a role.

The importance of liver function in the correct evaluation of the test will be referred to again. In the second case, serial films of the duodenum showed definite stenotic deformation, due to the ulcer. I regret that I have had very little experience in examining aspirated duodenal contents.

Cbe Pons anb the Cerebellar lbemispberes

This is not intended to be a summary of the arguments used in support of this theory by the author of Arboreal Man. Professor Berry says: "The degree of development of the pons varolii (pars basilaris pontis) is important as an indication of the degree of skillful movement of which the animal is capable." Recent work on the localization of function in the cerebellar cortex shows that almost the entire surface of the lateral lobes is concerned with the upper extremity, and especially with the hand.

It is entirely consistent with Weismann's "germ selection" and with the more recent work of the Mendelians or mutationists. Yet the bodily equilibrium of the bird is probably more perfect than that of any other animal. It is clear that in the bird the site of this function cannot be the lateral lobes of the cerebellum.

The brain of whales is remarkable for the large size of the cerebellum, and especially of its lateral lobes. the punch is now large and prominent." That the pons may not have been the only pathway that shared in the coordinated development of the cerebral cortex and the cerebellar hemispheres appears from the following quotations, also from Elliot Smith's article in Cunningham In an arboreal animal this tendency is at its minimum , hence the contraction, or, rather, the non-development, of the organ in the Anthropoidea.

Modern ideas about the fine structure of the nervous system originate from the discovery, around 1873, of the Golgi method of impregnation with silver chromate. Golgi, on the other hand, found that axons arose directly from the nerve cell; and he discovered the general scheme of the nervous system, viz., its structure of long conducting fibers and not of a network of anastomoses. Cajal denied the existence of lateral continuity of the type described by Golgi and Nansen; On the contrary, he concluded that the collaterals from the axons end freely in the gray matter and fit tightly to the body or dendrites of the nerve cells.

Apatie regarded them as the conducting units of the nervous system, in which he was supported by Bethe. Cajal maintained that the neurofibrils were confined to the body and dendrites of the nerve cell. The observation can be made with perfect clarity, and it is simply impossible to maintain Cajal's attitude that they are confined to the body and dendrites of the nerve cell.

It is not surprising that the public has strange and wonderful ideas about medicine.
