By anatomical study of the innervation of the kidneys on 11 corpses, P.V. Grigoriev determined that the kidney is supplied with its branches by the sympathetic and vagus nerves.
Lenaz considers wrong the view of Lamson, Rосa and others attributing a large role in water exchange to the liver, explaining this by the existence in it of a locking mechanism which, thanks to the contraction of v. hepaticae, regulates the flow of water into the blood. He believes that the regulation of water depends on the equilibrium between the osmotic pressure of plasma and capillary blood pressure.
The authors of the first work conclude that the M. reaction is nonspecific and, in protein-rich biological fluids (blood, blood serum, etc.), its results are due almost exclusively to the protein content of these fluids. The authors of the second work indicate that the female serum contains 8.5% more proteins than the male serum, and where the reaction correctly indicates sex, it does not depend on the presence of glandular hormones in the blood serum, but on one or another of its protein content.
Already earlier, Barcroff indicated that one of the functions of the spleen is to preserve its supply of erythrocytes, which at certain moments - after hemorrhages, strong muscle exercises, etc.
The effect of a vitamin-free diet on tumor growth was studied by Ludwig and found that mice fed a vitamin-free diet were less susceptible to cancer. The diet has no effect on the already developed tumor. Similar data were obtained in experiments with the inoculation of sarcoma in rats — in 35.7%, the tumor is not inoculated at all under these conditions, in 64.3% it grows more slowly and later kills the animal.
The author seeks to solve the question of ulcer pathogenesis by studying the internal environment of the organism of ulcer patients. He found that the reaction of tissues in the latter is shifted toward acidity, and after intravenous infusion of alkalis and Sipp's treatment only a slight, later shift toward alkalinity is obtained compared with the norm.
According to Ya. T. Bleikhman, such injections are a good diagnostic tool, due to the focal reaction they cause in the indicated diseases. In this way, it is possible, for example, to distinguish the so-called. pseudo-appendicitis.
It is now accepted that hyperaciditas plays no role in the origin of the ulcer. On the other hand, it is known that hyperaciditas is not a characteristic symptom of an ulcer, because only ulc. duodeni and ulcers in the vicinity of the pylorus are more likely to have hyperacidity. Proceeding from this, as well as from the fact that the treatment of ulcers-medicinal, dietetic, and even more so operative-is carried out regardless of the value of acidity, Вarsony believes that the practical value of the study of gastric contents after a test breakfast in ulcer patients is extremely low, both for diagnosis and for treatment.
According to A.I. Melnikov, these infusions (10 cc of sterilized 5% СаС12 solution) give quite satisfactory results, are available by technique and deserve wide distribution. At them, however, investigation of urine for protein is obligatory.
P. Ya. Razdolsky advises to pay attention to the presence of nasaortic venous corolla in patients with the expansion of the aorta.
Sternbach successfully used for urethritis, cystitis and pyelitis of gonorrhoid and staphylococcal origin stovarsol (spirocid), an arsenic drug that has recently found its use in syphilis.
