Page 10 - Annual Report of the Henry Phipps Institute for the study, treatment, and prevention of tuberculosis has been received.
Page 369 - Certain pigments, on the other hand, are excreted exclusively by the tubercles. It is probable, though not proved, that similar conditions exist in mammals. There is no conclusive evidence that urea is secreted differently from the salts. 2. As stated, the tubular epithelium can secrete all the urinary constituents in the frog. It is highly probable that it secretes pigments in mammals. It is proved that it secretes sugar under the influence of phloridzin, and doubtless...
Page 66 - Should these cutaneous complications occur nevertheless, the sun baths must be omitted for a time and the skin bathed in warm water, and friction with lemon juice applied. Headache, or a feeling of discomfort, is the signal to stop, no matter how short a time the bath has lasted.

As he begins to feel the warmth of the sun, he uncovers himself gradually until the whole of his body is exposed to the rays of the sun ; he exposes his back by turning on his chest. He remains in the sun-room for from half an hour to two hours, according to the directions given him by his physician. He may change the recumbent to the sitting position, or walk about.

Page 369 - There is no satisfactory explanation of the adaptation of the urine to the needs of the body, none of the proposed theories resting on conclusive proof. 7.
Page 369 - Filtration, however, can not explain the composition of the urine. 4. It is probable, though not proved, that glomerular urine may, at times, have a much lower concentration than the plasma The formation of such a fluid would probably require more than the ordinary filtration pressure — in other words, would be a secretory process. 5. It is probable also, though not proved, that the urine ordinarily becomes more concentrated as it passes through the tubules. In any case, the formation of a urine...
