Seite 66 - Colloid bodies are not colourable by carmine. They appear first in the white matter immediately contiguous to the cortical substance, but as the disease advances they become diffused outwards and inwards. In extreme cases the appearance of sections containing them may best be compared to a slice of sago-pudding, for they exist in such large numbers as almost completely to fill the field of the microscope, separated slightly from each other by a fine granular material. Although readily...
Seite 62 - ... when the shock of the blows has so depressed the cord that all voluntary and reflex action is for the time abolished. The authors, whilst regarding tetanus in all forms simply as an indication of a diminution in the resistive power of the cord, point out that some tetanising agents, such as strychnia, leave the reflex action unimpaired, whilst others depress both the resistive and the reflex power. Some agents — for example, gelseminum — depress the reflex function more than the resistive...
Seite 65 - ... arterial contraction goes on for any protracted period, or is frequently repeated, we may find various lesions due to imperfect blood-supply in addition to those due to diminished nutrition from the original nature of the blood...
Seite 49 - I had hardly written the above sentence ten days ago when I was tumbled over by the heat with apoplexy ; forty-three others were struck, all Europeans, and all died within three hours except myself ! I do not drink ! that is the secret. The sun had no ally in the liquor amongst my brains.
Seite 64 - ... matter; (6) creamy posterior columns, the softening seeming to be composed of colloid bodies. "Dr. Fox believes that none of the lesions yet found can be considered as in any way causes of tetanus. It is more likely, he thinks, that the blood itself is in fault. In strychnia poisoning, a condition so analagous to tetanus, Dr.
Seite xxiii - With the glorious future before them, here and hereafter — What they have done but the earnest Of the things which they shall do. But, far away from the crowds of great cities, in some quiet walk in foreign lands, how good it is to have some one approach us with gentle words and looks, and interchange a few bright, kindly glances...
Seite 130 - ... lobular and tubular, they mostly occur. Their development seems to be in direct ratio to the vigour of growth present, and accordingly they were very large in granulations snipped from a perineal fistula. Papilloma and rodent ulcer afford fine specimens ; and probably always the best occur in diseases of the transitional epithelium extending from the lips to the cardiac orifice, and on the conjunctival, anal, or preputial epidermis. I have found them unusually fine in a section of preputial chancre....
Seite 65 - ... the base of the skull, more especially of the pons, were thickly studded with an enormous quantity of these homogeneous masses, and here and there haematin granules. Again, where the cord has been injured by fracture of spine we have found these homogeneous masses in very great quantity in the cord substance. Further, in cases of acute paraplegia (myelitis) a large quantity of this homogeneous material is found lying around the vessels, and disseminated from them into the surrounding structures,...
Seite 116 - Adamiik (1870) confirmed the importance of the ciliary ganglion ; he further stimulated the origin of the third nerve in the floor of the aqueduct of Sylvius...
Seite 53 - In many cases, however, they extended to the whole of the voluntary muscles, and were of the most violent description, ceasing frequently for from two or three to fifteen hours, and again returning.
