Halaman 31 - Goulard's extract and wine of opium, in the proportion of from one to two drachms of each to ten ounces of water, thrown up forcibly with a large syringe three times a day, and retained three or four minutes in the passage. In obstinate cases, cauterization of the prostatic portion of the urethra, or even of the entire length of this tube, may be necessary, the operation being repeated once a week.
Halaman 27 - worm eaten," wholly covered with grayish secretion. No induration of base unless caused by caustic or other irritant, or by simple inflammation ; in which case the engorgement is not circumscribed, shades off into surrounding tissues, and is of temporary duration. Pathological tendencies — Secretion copious and purulent, auto-inocnlable.
Halaman 87 - ... see that I arrest immediately the pulsation, which returns directly my finger is removed. I can arrest it at will by preventing the flow of blood in the vessel. This suffices to prove that it is a venous not an arterial pulsation. It is due to a retrograde current of blood through the vense cavae, and the larger veins which are tributary thereto.
Halaman 191 - I think with equal fairness she may be assumed to have got up to 45, which is conceding that she still wants a quarter of perfect health. By this reckoning she must have made 20 ounces of red blooddiscs ; that is, the most important organic constituent of upwards of 150 ounces of blood, in a month ! Mark the power of renewal...
Halaman 43 - Leucorrhoea," p. 203, gives, as his opinion, that "there is no good which can be effected by the more powerful caustics which cannot be accomplished by the nitrate of silver, or by other means. It is true that, by the prolonged application of the nitrate of silver, loss of substance may be caused ; but this is far less likely to occur with lunar caustic than with the more powerful escharotics. It is also true that some practitioners apply the more violent caustics so lightly that they do not exceed...
Halaman 135 - ... a consequence, too often meets with premature death. Space does not permit me to enter into a consideration of all the moral evils of such a system, but it is enough to speak of the indifference to infant life which is thus fostered, and which is evidenced by the fact that a mother is induced, and too readily yields, to the temptation to sell her child's life for the temporary indulgence in ease and gain. Oh ! let those who have any influence in this matter pause ere they help to sever those...
Halaman 345 - ... a glance. The older men and women present all the physical peculiarities of the nationalities to which they belong; but these peculiarities are not propagated and continued in the new race ; they are lost in the prevailing Mormon type.
Halaman 312 - ... and be brought in a pure state into contact with any solid substance, upon which it may be desired to ascertain its chemical or solvent action, or be submitted to the action of electricity, by means of wires introduced through the stoppers. By immersing about fifty substances in the liquid acid, for various periods of time, he has found that it is comparatively a chemically inert substance, and not deoxidized by any ordinary deoxidizing agent, except the alkali metals. Its solvent power is extremely...
Halaman 79 - This plan should fulfil three important indications of treatment — namely, to exclude air, to moderate the local irritation, and to keep the parts in a permanently moist state, so as to prevent the drying and hardening of the scabs. The best poultice is formed of linseed meal, which should be spread on a soft material, such as French wadding, and covered with gutta-percha paper or oiled silk.
