Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanics of the Digestive Tract In 1913, while doing some work on the absorption of gases injected into loops of intestine, I noticed differences in irritability in different parts of the bowel; that is, the jejunum reacted actively to distention, while the ileum generally responded but little. It promptly occurred to me that this graded difference in irritability might account for the downward progress of food in the bowel, because it seemed reasonable to suppose that material would have to move from the more irritable and active regions to the less irritable and active ones. While attempting to show these differences in irritability with excised segments of intestine, I found that the rate of rhythmic contraction of the muscle is graded downwards from the pylorus to the ileocecal sphincter. Remembering how much the heart specialist has profited by the careful study of conduction along a similar rhythmic gradient from the sinus node to the ventricle, I was filled with the hope that a careful analysis of the gradient found in the bowel might throw light on the mechanism of peristalsis and might put more system into the science of gastro-enterology. As time goes on that hope seems more and more likely to be realized. During 1915, gradients of rhythmicity, irritability and latent period were found in the stomach; and a sort of pacemaker was located on the lesser curvature near the cardia. Later, my assistants and I showed that in addition to the rhythmic gradients in the stomach and intestine, and probably underlying them, there are gradients in metabolism. Ways were found in which these chemical gradients can theoretically be upset; and actually they were found upset in many of the sickly or distempered animals studied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mechanical Factors of Digestion Researches conducted by the writer and his collaborators in the Physiological Laboratory of Harvard University during the past ten years form the basis of this book. In describing these researches, the related work of other investigators has also been incorporated, and although the exposition of the subject is not intended to be encyclopedic, the whole presents an account of the mechanical activities of the alimentary canal as they are now known and understood. The plan here followed runs the risk of emphasizing unduly a single series of investigations but, on the other hand, it has the advantage of offering mainly direct testimony rather than secondary interpretation.

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases of the Digestive Tract and Their Treatment "Of the making of many books there is no end," was the dictum of Milton, and it is as true now as when written, or else why a preface, which seems an author's justification for launching another book to swell the multitude. His purpose may be one of three - to add something to human knowledge, to put in a pleasing and useful form that which is already known, or to promulgate or defend some pet theory or discovery of his own. My purpose is largely the second: to tell in a clear and not too fulsome fashion the facts pertaining to our branch of internal medicine - the digestive tract- without trying to exhaust any feature of it, whether it be its physiology or pathology, desirable objects, but worthy of a more extensive volume than mine can possibly be. The first object, though incidental, will also be attained in a limited degree, for no one can relate what he has observed in medicine without imparting some information which is not known, at least, to all physicians. While mankind is said to have had the same origin, yet rarely are two members of the human race exactly alike in physiognomy; similarly a disease may present the same general features, but at the same time afford individual differences. It is only by our acquaintance with these departures from the normal course of disease that we become well-rounded authorities, and every book containing any portion of its author's experience with pathological or clinical vagaries must necessarily, when consulted, enlarge our own perspective. In this work the didactic method is employed from its continued use by the author in class work rather than the deductive - commonly known as ease teaching - because the former allows a more complete picture of a disease to be presented, though it must be confessed it is often artificial, and the latter much better "holds the mirror up, to nature." The names of authorities are scantily mentioned in this treatise, since no hope of making an encyclopedia of it has ever occurred to the author - not because he feels under any the less obligations to those authorities for a mine of information, which no one man could have acquired alone in a lifetime.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Natural History of Digestion Civilised man habitually ill-treats his digestive organs. One who would never venture out on a chilly day without some extra covering to protect his lungs, seldom has any such regard for his stomach, nor hesitates irregularly and irrationally to introduce into this long-suffering organ all manner of articles fancied by his senses. The possession by man of a cultivated palate, of highly though delicately trained senses of taste and smell, and of an appetite peculiar to his species, which can be habituated to all kinds of unusual flavours and bizarre tastes, - in many instances with the development of a craving for them, - is not an unmixed blessing. Stimulation of the appetite with highly-flavoured foods diminishes the natural wish for food for its own sake, it tends towards living to eat, instead of eating to live. It is not only the wealthy and leisured who are guilty in this respect. The use of food accessories has largely extended throughout all classes. In the present volume an attempt has been made to describe in a brief compass the general laws governing digestive processes in all living bodies. A study of these processes as carried out in plants and in lower animals serves to indicate the modes and means by which living protoplasm in all vegetable and animal cells can most easily and economically procure a "living wage." The higher animals only differ physically from the lower in being formed of myriads of living cells which have as it were joined a "Trades Union" to enable them to assist each other in the most economical and thorough way, and have for the most part abandoned individualism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diseases of the Digestive System Many of the diseases included in this volume lie on the borderland of medicine and surgery. This volume includes articles from many of the most eminent men of Europe, specialists in internal medicine and in diseases of the digestive tract. The subjects are treated very fully and at the same time in a concise and practical manner. The modern methods of examination, including physical and chemical measures, are clearly set forth, which will enable the practitioner to apply them with the same ease that he may make a physical examination of the chest and a chemical and microscopic uran alysis. The diagnosis of the various diseases is fully discussed and the treat ment, including the dietary, is satisfactorily full and complete. Indeed, the subjects are so fully treated that the editor found it inexpedient to add to or to modify the. d104 to any important extent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physiology of Digestion: Considered With Relation to the Principles of Dietetics The present volume is essentially a continuation of the work of which the tenth edition has lately a peered, under the title of The Principles of Physiology app 'cd to the Preser vation of Health and to the Improvement of Physical and Mental Education and its object is the same - namely, to lay before the public a plain and intelligible description of the structure and uses of some of the more important organs of the human body, and to show how information of this kind may be usefully applied, not only in the prevention of suffering, but It} improving the physical, moral, and intellectual condition 0 man. At first sight it may seem doubtful whether I have not exceeded proper whole volume to the consideration 0 Digest the more we conside of the states bodily organization, and, consequently, over our moral and intellectual nature, and the degree to which its morbid de rangements undermine health, happiness, and social useful ness, we shall become more and more convinced of the deep practical interest which attaches to a familiar acquaintance with the laws by which it is regulated, and of the necessity of entering into their examination at sufficient length to ensure the ready applicability of our knowledge in our general con duct. In infancy errors in diet and derangement of the digestive organs are admitted to be among the principal causes of the striking mortality which occurs in that period of life. In youth and maturity the same influence is recognised, not only in the numerous forms of disease directly traceable to that origin, but also in the universal practice of referring every obscure or anomalous disorder to deran ement of the stomach or bowels. Hence, too, the interestw ich has always been felt by the public in the perusal of books on Dietetics and Indigestion and hence the prevailing custom of usin purga tivas as remedies for every disorder, very often wit good, but not unfrequently with most injurious efl'ects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Work of the Digestive Glands It was not at all my intention, in those lectures, to treat of everything which has been written concerning the work of the digestive glands. I only wished to make known the results of an experimental investigation which, I am convinced, correctly indicates the present position of the subject, and to communicate the same to ray hearers, partly by word of mouth and partly by direct demonstration. The subject of these lectures represents the work of my laboratory for nearly ten years; and since every experiment which deals with the functions of the gastric glands, and of the pancreas, has been many times repeated, elaborated, varied, and extended; the material has, for us at least, lost its fragmentary character and grown into a complete whole. When I employ the word "we" in the following text, I wish to indicate the whole laboratory. In the description of the several experiments I always mention the author. But the object of the experiment, its meaning and its position in the whole series, is spoken of from the point of view of the laboratory, without giving the individual opinions and views of the author. It is of essential advantage to the reader to see how a uniform guiding principle has developed, and taken shapein the form of tenable and harmoniously linked experiments.In its main idea the book embodies the latest views of our laboratory;it embraces all the facts, even the most recent, which have been constantly tested, frequently corrected, and now appear to be securely established.
