Having noted in the beginning of his article the importance of the issue of changes in nerve cells during artificial overheating and during feverish processes, the author briefly informs the literature on this issue. Goldscheider and Flatau, making experiments with artificial overheating and studying the nervous system, for the first time noted the fact that the first cells undergo changes, consisting in swelling of cells and processes, dissolution of chromotophilic elements and diffuse color. Lugaro, with his research, confirmed the research of Goldscheider and Flatau, but could not only agree with them that the chromatophilic substance of the cell, as if it does not play any role either in its life or for its function. The author of the article notes in this regard that he personally has already more than two years adhered to the view of chromatophilic elements, as an essential part of the cell, necessary for its function. But with changes in the nervous system, you must also take into account the number of changed cells, as well as the qualitative aspect of the changes.
