˹éÒ 4 - We thus learn that man is descended from a hairy quadruped, furnished with a tail and pointed ears, probably arboreal in its habits, and an inhabitant of the Old World.
˹éÒ 4 - This creature, if its whole structure had been examined by a naturalist, would have been classed amongst the Quadrumana, as surely as would the common, and still more ancient, progenitor of the Old and New World monkeys.
˹éÒ 232 - ... which the treatment should be conducted. A very simple rule — indeed, too simple, I think — is often adopted. When the urine has persistently and habitually thrown down acid deposits, the patient has generally been prescribed alkalies ; if, .on the contrary, he has had alkaline deposits, he has been treated with acids. That simple mode has too often formed the main portion of the treatment. In the former case he has soda or potash largely administered; or he will be told to drink so many...
˹éÒ 316 - ... from nervous and muscular weakness ; but, as I before said, it is more especially in the legs that the effect is most striking. A loss of power is first observed, accompanied by pains in the limbs, which might indicate a chronic meningitis of the spinal cord, and in some cases there is ausesthcsia.
˹éÒ 7 - ... prejudices. Still, it must, I think, be obvious to thoughtful persons, that the view, that man is a mere machine, constructed by force, whose structure and actions depend upon the properties of the material particles of which his body is composed, and the influence of physical agencies upon these, is scarcely reconcilable with the idea that man is made in the image of God, and that man holds, or can ever hold, communion with his Maker.
˹éÒ 17 - Indeed, it may be affirmed that no severe constitutional disorder can long continue in a woman during the predominance of the ovarian function without entailing disturbance in this function. And the converse is also true, that disorder of the sexual organs cannot long continue without entailing constitutional disorder, or injuriously affecting the condition of other organs.
˹éÒ 319 - I told you, accompany the disease— viz., the rigor, the languor and feebleness, headache, epistaxis, giddiness, pain in the back and aching of the limbs, the appearance of the tongue, the state of the bowels, the condition of the urine, etc.— may not be very distinct, or any of these morbid symptoms may be entirely absent.
˹éÒ 183 - THE PATHOLOGY AND TREATMENT OF VENEREAL DISEASES. Including the results of recent investigations upon the subject.
˹éÒ 17 - MD, Obstetric Physician to St. Thomas's Hospital, etc. etc. There is nothing special in the mode of studying the diseases of women. Just as the ophthalmic surgeon is led to examine the eye because the patient complains of loss or disturbance of its function, or because he feels pain in it, or has some other subjective symptom referred to that organ, so by disturbances of function or some other subjective sign are we led to the discovery of disease of the sexual organs. When the function of an organ...
˹éÒ 30 - I allude to secondary hemorrhage, pyaemia, erysipelas, and hospital gangrene. Whoever will take the trouble to look over the medical journals and retrospects of the last two years, will discover that pyaemia or septicaemia occupies far more space in surgical records than it did before anaesthetics were so generally employed. When chloroform is administered during the period of an hour or more, as it frequently is, it undoubtedly enters copiously into the circulation, not only powerfully impressing...
