the in\"(Jlvement being of streptococcic

the toes of m)' right foot wcre itching. 
There was a nice cold hod)' of \\<ater

should run thC' risk of saving the foot

MEDICAL FACTS 
By .J. G. B. 
A tumor in the pelvis with Huid in 
the abdomen is not necessarily a hope 
less proposition. There arc cases of 
fibroma of the ovarv that are accom 
panied by a great <leal of Huid that 
recol'(:r completely after removal of 
the tumor. According to some ob 
,ervers 30 prr cent. uf these casrs 
have ascites. 
Fluhmann of San Francisco ad 
I'ances the theon' that uterine bleed 
ing folloll'ing a~cidents, without de 
monstrahle pelvic injury, is due to 
trauma to ripe follicles or corpora 
lutea. He points out the fact that a 
n('\I' menstrual cI'Cle is formed, be 
ginnin!!: Il'ith the 'premature menstru 
ation following the accident. 
In pre,enting a case of a ten-month 
old bab" girl who lI'a, admitted to 
the llllspital because she had passed a 
largt:', dark red ,tool two weeks pre 
viousl\', Lanman of Boston remarks: 
"I think my guess would be that she 
probabl~ hied from a ~!Ieckel\ diver 
ticulum. This occurs much more fre 
quently than Il'e formerly thought. 
\Ve han: seen a larg:t:' number of 
ca,,,s in the past tIl'll years, the 
youngest two months of age, where 
bleeding b~' rectum was a presenting 
sign," Operation reHaled an ulcer 
of ~/Ieckel's dil'erticulum. 
Con tinuing the discussion of the 
same case, Higgins says: "I referred 
to Abt's System of Pediatrics, pub 
lished about 1<;27. and f'lul1l1 there no 
mt:'ntion of bleeding from a ;\tIeckcl's 
din"rticulum. The recognition uf this 
condition is recent, certainly within 
the last 15 yea rs." 
A temperature of 101.5 and a pulse 
rate of 160 iII a Illan d\'in!!: of acute 
diverticulitis elicited the following 
remark: "The temperature i, not 
high, but the pulse is abnormally 
high and here we might bring out 
the point that the pulse in acute ab 
dominal conditions or in intestinal 
obstruction i, often a much better 
indicator of the patient's reaction or 
toxic condition than the temperature." 
A committee appointed in ~/Iay. 
193+, by the American ~ eurological 
Association, assisteJ by a grant from 
the Carnegie Foundation, find,; that 
"Only two psychoses have a hered 
itary significa"lce - manic-depre%ive 
and dementia praecox. Of the two, 
the fonner is more definitely heredi 
tary. Factors of heredity exist in 
feeblemindedness, but it is not a 
simple recrssin' lV!endelian charac 
trr.' . 
A new method for differentiation 
of aortic and pulmonary murmurs: 
Svstolic murmurs of the pulmonary 
a~tery are frankly reinforced by 
forced inspiration and postinspiratory 
apnea while systolic murmurs of the 
aorta are muffled hI' the same. Dias 
tol ic III u rmu rs of the pulmona ry ar 
terv are reinforced Ivith forced ex 
pir;ltion and postexpiratory apnea in 
a greater degree than the diastolic 
murmurs of the aorta which are 
modtrateh' n:iuforced. The rea,,;on 
for the r;'in forcement of the pulmo 
nan' Sl stolic llllHlllurs seems to be 
inc;eas~' of blood How through the 
pulmonary artery during forced in 
spiration. 
After listening to a report of a 
case in whom a murmur was heard 
at the apex, allegedly transmitted to 
the base. P. D. \Vhite had the fol 
lowing to say: "~/Ll\' I add a word 
about transmission of murmur,;? The 
record sal'S that 'loud svstolic and 
diastolic ;llUrmllrS were'audible.. at 
the mitral area and transmitted to 
the base.' The truth is the other 
Il'av round. Aortic valve lllurmurs 
are' often transmitted to the apex but 
mitral murmurs are almost nevrr 
transmitted to the aortic area."
