When studying the collateral circulation of the portal system in pathological cases (thrombosis, compression, cirrhosis of the liver, etc.), it is possible to find various kinds of collaterals, which, when the portal vein or its branches are turned off, deliver blood to the right heart in a roundabout way, which leads to the preservation vascular balance for a more or less long time. In the article “On the anatomy of the portal vein and its collaterals,” we present a whole series (24) of such roundabout pathways of the portal circulation.

Most of the experimental studies on the action of proteins on the heart were made in order to study changes in the work of an isolated heart when solutions of certain proteins or their decay products are passed through it.

Recently, in our laboratory, work has been carried out to study the endocrine glands in an isolated form. At the same time, attention was also paid to the vascular reaction of these organs. The thyroid gland and testicles were investigated in this direction.

The problem of anti-diphtheria active immunization, approaching its practical solution, still needs to be covered by the question of the choice of immunizing material.

Organic valvular defects of the right heart are rare: simultaneous bicuspid and tricuspid defect is already a rare combination; even more rare, apparently, combined defects of the bicuspid, tricuspid and aortic valves. In most well-known manuals on pathological anatomy, such complex combinations are most often silent, in the rest of the literature, such cases are either not mentioned at all, or only a few words are reported. for example, Mac Callum (Journ. of Am. Med. Ass., t. 84, no. 21, 1925) says: “At a recent autopsy I found a greatly enlarged heart, tricuspid, bicuspid and aortic stenosis and insufficiency, scarring in myocardium and only old remnants of a specific rheumatic lesion. "

Periodicity is a law of nature. Every phenomenon undergoes a uniformly consistent rhythmic increase and decrease in the intensity of the tempo. "All nature," says the famous English naturalist Wallace, "is full of rhythmic movements of all kinds, degrees and durations." Even inorganic nature is subject to the laws of rhythm.

Obtained for the first time back in 1895 by Marchoux and Sclavo and then experimentally tested by Sclavo and Jobernheim in a large number of very convincing experiments, the anthrax serum was used with great success in veterinary practice, both in prophylactic (together with the vaccine) and in medicinal purposes.

Surgical treatment of an undescended testis located in the groin (retentio testis inguinalis) consists of two main methods: 1) mobilization of the testicle, which is performed according to certain rules and is an extremely important point of the operation, on which the success of the latter largely depends , and 2) keeping the testicle brought down into the scrotum in place (retention).

By physical culture in the broad sense of the word, we must understand the improvement of human nature.

In order to correctly put the fight against a particular social disease - and trachoma should undoubtedly be classified as such - it is necessary to have accurate information about its spread, which information can be obtained only by a general examination. Therefore, we must welcome the desire of those departments of health care who believe that it is with the specified event that one should start.

The periodicity of the menstrual function, scientifically substantiated in its details only in recent years, gave the fact of menstrual blood loss in women, in the minds of ancient peoples, a special mystical, mysterious meaning.

In a report to the International Congress of Ophthalmologists in America, in 1922, Finlay reported for the first time that when examining the eyes of one woman who was in the last month of pregnancy, he accidentally stumbled upon a sharp bilateral temporal narrowing of the visual field, and since there were no he could not detect the phenomenon of moments, he suggested that this narrowing of the field of vision depends on the hypertrophy of the cerebral appendage occurring during pregnancy.

Pertussis is known to mainly affect children, and most often between the ages of 2 and 5 years. Adults also suffer from whooping cough, but much less often than children, and this disease is incomparably easier for them.

Since the middle of the last century, the issue of treating scaly lichen has attracted a lot of attention. Kaposi's arsenic treatment is still prominent in psoriasis therapy. However, due to the weakness of the therapeutic effect and even its complete absence in a large number of cases, due to the intoxication encountered with it and addiction to arsenic during its prolonged use, and also due to frequent relapses, despite the successful effect on individual attacks of the disease, this method cannot considered perfect enough.

All the above facts and reasoning give us the right to assert that a normal organism, not infected with tbc, as a rule, and in the usual setting of the experiment, is insensitive or insensitive to tuberculin. Depending on the type of animal, its condition, and other conditions of a nonspecific nature, this insensitivity can fluctuate only within insignificant limits, without obeying a certain pattern and constancy.

Brain surgery is most abundantly represented in Augusta-Hospital’e where a well-known specialist in this field of surgery, prof. Krause. Augusta-Hospital is a relatively small hospital, very well equipped and beautifully furnished, all overgrown with ivy.

A new sign of early pregnancy. This sign, which Lönne (Zentr. F. Gyn., 1925, No. 43) draws attention to, is that if the uterus is bimanually palpated, the outer hand produces constant light pressure on the bottom and posterior wall of the organ, fixing the latter , and two fingers of the inner one feel the consistency of the uterine body from the side of the front wall of the sleeve, then in the place corresponding to the position of the egg, a clear fluctuation is felt.

M.V. Sokolov (Moscow. Med. Zh., 1925, No. 12) reports useful data on the outcomes of radical surgery for uterine cancer (on.

Of the drugs proposed for local anesthesia, cocaine has ceased to be used due to its toxicity; eikaine, stovaine, alipine and novocaine proposed instead of it have much less analgesic power; All this forced the search for new local anesthetic drugs, among which tutocaine has recently become especially widespread.

Morone (ref. Journ. De chir., 1925, no. 1) applied this operation in 66 cases of pulmonary diseases. In most cases, the case concerned pulmonary tbc with extensive pleuro-parietal adhesions that made artificial pneimothorax impossible or invalid; in other cases, bronchiectasis, lung abscesses, empyema, and serious mediastini deformities occurred.
