Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, Vol. 4 I have collected notes Of seventy-two other cases from the litera ture, * and with this material as a basis will attempt an analysis Of some points concerning the conditions. Although there was an alcohol history in every one of these cases, in several of them the alcohol had not been administered in excess, as far as was known, SO that perhaps in these there was some other factor at work. This question will be discussed later. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, 1912, Vol. 9 Of the 100 cases (fifty-six males with an average age of 8 months, and forty-four females with an average age of months), sixty seven (thirty-six males, average age 7 months, thirty-one females, average age mouths) proved fatal, and thirty-three (twenty males, average age months, thirteen females, average 102 months) recovered. Purpura occurred in eleven (six male, five female) cases, all of which were fatal. Of the sixty-seven cases 164 per cent. Showed purpura. The average age of the eleven cases was 8% months, the extremes being 1 month and 28 months. All but two cases (28 months and 12 months) were under 11 months of age; and, exclusive of the girl aged 28 months, the average age works out at months. None of the purpuric cases showed oedema. Among the 100 cases there was one case with oedema of the hands and feet which recovered; and two fatal cases (without purpura) showed septic rashes.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, Vol. 11 Until the commencement of the nineteenth century this disease possessed a far greater degree of importance than that which attaches to it at the present time. It has always been attended with a high mortality whenever introduced into an unprotected com munity for the first time; for example, in Mexico, where it was introduced by the Spaniards under Cortez in the sixteenth century, or in the West Indies in the slave importations.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, Vol. 2 Medicine is approaching the exactitude of a science only in recent years, due mainly to the indefatigable labours of physicians at the bedside, in laboratories, and also to researches of the chemist and physicist.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, 1921, Vol. 18 The town of Smyrna, however, was relatively immune before the war, for among the sick children who came to my out-patient department from 1906 - 1913 only 3 per cent. Were suffering from malaria, and even this 3 per cent. Included a certain number of children who came from the interior of the villayet to be treated at Smyrna.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, 1908, Vol. 5 I ventured to think the opening should be more suggestive than dogmatic, and terse rather than discursive. As a consequence I am here to represent a phrase rather than a faculty, and the burthen of presenting new ideas and new facts will rest almost entirely with those who follow.

Excerpt from The British Journal of Children's Diseases, 1917, Vol. 14 Caaes of other types have also been reported by Morse, Dun, Pritchard and Drew, Rogers, Whipham and Fagge, Rotch, and Umber. Malformations of this region may be subdivided into various groups, as follows: I. Complete absence, generally associated with gross malformations as in monsters; 8 cases are on record. (1) Cooper: 'Traite d'Anat. path., ' i., p. 475 (quoted by Griffith and Lavenson). (2) Heath: 'London Mod. Gaz., ' 1840, xxvi, p. 548 (a brief reference only). (3) Lozach: 'Journ. Univ. des Sei. Med., ' 1810, iii, p. 187. (4) Mackenzie: 'Diseases of the Throat and Nose, 1884, ii, p. 217. (5) Mellor: 'London Med. Gaz., ' 1840, xxvi, p. 542.

(7) Sonderland: 'Harless's Rheinische Jahrbucher, ' 1819, i, p. 198; and 'Hufoland's Journal, ' 1820, ii, p. 138. (8) Tiedemann: 'Anatomie kopfloser Missgeburten' (quoted by Schoeller). II. Double sophagus, with reunion at the lower end, is still more rare. Blasius published one such case. In Kathe's case there appeared to be a narrow supplemental lumen in the wall of the tube. (1) Blasius: 'Observata anatom, pract. in homine, Ludg. Batav. et Amster., ' 1674, Tab. XV, fig. 6. (2) Kathe: 'Virchow's Archiv, ' 1907, cxc, p. 78. III. Diverticula or pouches, pharyngeal rather than oesophageal, being situated posteriorly at the junction of the pharynx and oesophagus. They are found in later life, more often in men than women, and not in children. Possibly there may be a primary congenital weakness or deficiency of muscle at the point of origin, or they may develop from an imperfectly closed branchial fissure. IV. Cysts have been described by Hebb and H. M. Fletcher. Hebb's specimen is in the museum of the Royal College of Surgeous. It is about 20 min. in diameter, lined by epithelium like that of the trachea, with a wall chiefly of muscular tissue and mucous membrane. It was obtained from a woman, aged 31 years, who died from heart disease, and was situated in the upper part of the sophagus, in the angle between it and the trachea, about 11/2 in. below the left lobe of the thyroid. It arose during separation of the trachea from the sophagus. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
