On the synergism of adrenaline and thyroidin
Abstract
The question of the synergism and antagonism of the action of drugs is one of the most interesting and important from the point of view of general pharmacology - the more so because it arises in most cases and in the study of the pharmacodynamics of individual drugs. As regards in particular drugs acting in the same direction, it is not yet possible to summarize all the possibilities and to give exhaustive explanations as to what circumstances and how the effect is enhanced in each individual case. In the literature on this subject we find only attempts to establish whether there is summation of doses or activation. In some cases the question is raised of the activation of one substance by another, and of the creation of more favorable conditions by one drug for the development of the pharmacological action by the other.
To the clinic and therapy of endocarditis lenta
Abstract
During the last 3 years (1922-25) we have seen 10 cases of e. l. During this time about 2000 patients have passed through our department, which indicates the comparative rarity of this disease, at least in comparison with benign rheumatic endocarditis, which occurs much more frequently. Like any other infection, e. l. seems to have a temporary incidence, occurring in batches. So, not meeting it sometimes during half a year, in the 2nd half of 1925 we simultaneously had under observation 3 patients with e. l.
On the functional diagnosis of the liver and pancreas
Abstract
Nowadays many various methods of liver functional diagnostics are proposed (at VIII Congress of Therapists on May 28, 1925 Prof. Konchalovsky gave their summary), but all available methods of this kind satisfy clinics very little. As for methods of functional diagnostics of the pancreas, they are not available at all. We offer the method of functional diagnostics of the liver and pancreas, developed by Rona and his pupils (Reinicke, Bach and others).
Protein therapy for gastric and 12 duodenal ulcers
Abstract
The preceding imperialist and civil wars, the revolution, and the famine and epidemics that accompanied them, drastically changed the socio-economic conditions of our country, particularly the way of life and nutrition. One of the consequences of this change was a considerable incidence of certain kinds of disease, among which were stomach and duodenal ulcers.
Rivanol in surgery
Abstract
Thirteen years ago, in the clinic of Professor V.S. Gruzdev, under his supervision, I did work on one of the major issues of modern asepsis, namely, a comparative evaluation of the most common methods of hand disinfection. In this work, of course, I had to get acquainted with the doctrine of asepsis and antisepsis in its entirety, and at the same time I had to delve into the issues of surgical infection in general.
Attempted formation of an artificial premediastinal pneumothorax
Abstract
Anyone who has dealt with an artificial pleuomothorax knows what a huge role the pleural adhesions between the visceral and costal pleura play in this case. To be convinced of this, one has only to open an ordinary manual, for example, a monograph by Sternberg or Rubel. The details of the configuration of the collapsed lung depend on the pleural fusions; thanks to them we sometimes obtain such a happy combination as an elective pneumothorax, which rationally compresses only the diseased parts of the lung without reducing the healthy respiratory surface; thanks to the same fusions, the gas bubble can be arranged so that only the healthy parts of the lung are collapsed, which negates the therapeutic effect of the artificial pneumothorax.
Regarding abdominal pseudomyxomas of appendicular origin
Abstract
Pseudomyxomas of ovarian origin are not very rare; those arising from cysts of the appendix are far from common: In the literature there are only about 40-50 such cases, of which Russian authors account for 6 - 8 (Winteler, Pikin, Leontiev, Spasokukotskaya), therefore we consider it unnecessary to report about three cases of pseudomixoma of peritoneal origin observed by us in the Hospital Surgery Clinic, one of which is quite unusual in size and peculiarities of tumor localization.
On the removal of large foreign bodies from the esophagus
Abstract
Dentures among esophageal foreign bodies are frequent: Dillon had three dentures removed in 13 cases, Wenglowski had one denture removed in 54 cases of esophageal foreign bodies, according to Bereznevsky out of 256 cases artificial dentures fall in 104. We can think that in the future, with the development of dental technology, surgeons will have to deal even more often with the removal, in one way or another, of dentures, and therefore the question of assistance to such patients is of considerable practical interest.
On the physiological valgus of the knee
Abstract
The knee joint, as a number of anatomists' observations show, is already normally the apex to the outside of an open obtuse angle formed by joining the femur and tibia bones. This obtuse angle is what we mean by the name of genu valgum physiologicum. Many clinicians forget this physiological phenomenon; others, with Lange and Spitzy at the head, believe that the X-foot is formed only in the 2nd year, considering the characteristic for the 1st year of life the O-foot, which is the result of adaptation to the ovoid shape of the uterine cavity.
On intrauterine injections for delayed menses and ectopic pregnancy
Abstract
It is fairly common nowadays for women to ask their doctors to call for a few days' delayed blood. Most women, and in some cases the doctors themselves, are inclined to attribute this delay of blood to causes independent of the pregnancy. This should be recognized as a delusion, because it is undeniable that amenorrhea, for which patients go to doctors, in the vast majority of cases is due to the pregnancy and only in rare cases depends on other causes.
Tuberculosis among school-age children in schools in Kazan
Abstract
The Pirquet reaction as the most sensitive method of mass examination plays the main role in the study of tbc infectivity. It is the extreme sensitivity of this reaction that prevents it from serving as a means of judging the spread of tbc: while in children under 3-4 years of age both negative and positive Pirquet reactions have diagnostic value, with the latter usually indicating the presence of tbc disease in a child at a given time, in older children a positive reaction only indicates that the body was once infected with tbc and is fighting the infection, but does not prove that it is now sick.
Materials on the Grossman pain-finger reflex
Abstract
I.B. Grossman described a new pathological reflex, which he called finger pain reflex. This phenomenon is as follows: strong, almost painful, pressing of a nail phalanx of a patient's big toe causes plantar flexion of all other toes; the same pressing of nail phalanges of all other toes gives prolonged sharp extensia (dorsal) of the big toe. Grossman's reflex was observed by him in organic diseases of the nervous system, developing mainly in affection of lateral columns.
On the use of halil (1116) in syphilis and some skin diseases
Abstract
The therapeutic value of halil in syphilis is beyond doubt. According to authors who have worked with it (Troisfontaines, Abraham, Zelenev et al.), it is not only as good as salvarsan in this respect, but perhaps surpasses it. On the other hand, there are different opinions about its side effects: some people consider it more toxic than salvarsan and point to cases even of lethal outcome from halil application, others find it harmless, well tolerated and does not cause serious complications. Therefore I will allow myself to share those impressions which were obtained from intravenous injections of halil in the clinic of the Nizhny Novgorod University for the years 1921-22 in the treatment of both syphilis and some skin diseases.
Etiology, prevention and serotherapy of scarlatina
Abstract
For more than 30 years the question of the etiology of scarlet fever has been the subject of the deepest attention and scrutiny of a number of researchers. On this long and thorny path of searching there were moments full of hope, when it seemed that we were about to approach the solution of such a difficult and tempting problem; but, unfortunately, these hopes were quickly replaced by disappointment, and scientific thought plunged back into hopeless skepticism.
To the physiology of the spleen. G. P. Sakharov and Dr. S. S. Zubov (Vestn. Endocrinol., 1926, No. 6)
Abstract
The spleen secretes a special substance, leukocytolysin, an enzyme-like substance that breaks down when heated for 1/2 to an hour at 56° This leukocytolytic function of the spleen is influenced by various influences, particularly hormonal.
On the functions of the cerebellum. J. ten-Kathe (Phys. Ob., 1926, No. 8)
Abstract
The cerebellum exerts a tonic and stenotic influence on the musculature, and this influence on individual muscle groups is responsible for the animal maintaining its equilibrium. According to the author, the clinical data suggest that the origin of various movement disorders observed after cerebellar injuries should be attributed mainly to the known muscle atony.
To the method of studying the structure of bacteria. F.Ya. Kitaev (Vest. Mikr. i Epid., 1926, vol. 3)
Abstract
The author found that such microbes as diphtheria, typhoid and anthrax bacilli have clearly differentiated nuclei. The latter, however, are mostly invisible due to the presence in the bacterial cell of a protein substance (deutoplasm), which has the ability to perceive coloring particularly well; surrounding the nucleus on all sides, this substance makes it invisible.
On the variability of microbes. B. I. Kurochkin (Med. Ob. Nijn. Pov., 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
Growing cultures of some microbes (b. subtilis, b. typhi abd., staph, aureus) in broth containing ethyl alcohol for a number of generations, the author caused changes in both the morphological structure and biological features of these microbes, which changes were passed on to new generations of the latter.
To the problem of immunity. V. M. Zdravosmyslov (Microb. Zhurn., 1926, vol. 1-2)
Abstract
In his experiments, the author was convinced that not only bacteria, but also apparently neutral substances (like carmine), by whatever means they are introduced into the body, are directed mainly to the intestine. The author thinks that antibodies, as such, are the result of enzymatic processes played out mainly in the intestine.
Staphylococci and methylene blue. Lesbre and Jautsion (C. r. de la Soc. de Biol., 1926, no. 9)
Abstract
Some authors (Louros, Fuss, etc.) have already previously pointed out that there is a known parallelism between the virulence of microbes - particularly streptococci, staphylococci, b. coli, etc. - and their ability to reduce methylene blue in liquid media.
The role of the skin in rabies infection. K. Khalyapin (Tr. Azerb. Inet. Micr., vol. 2-3)
Abstract
The author verified by experiment that the guinea pig skin is an organ highly sensitive to the rabies virus - infection with rabies through the skin is very easy, which the author puts in connection with its anatomical features (a rich network of nerves).
To the etiology of childhood cholera. P. Zdrodovsky and E. Brenn (Tr. of the Azerb. Inst. of Microbes, vol. 2-3)
Abstract
Based on their observations, the authors establish the important role of b. coli in the etiology of childhood cholera. E. coli seems to be the main culprit of this disease, although other microbes, in particular b. proteus, may also be involved.
Vaccine therapy of bacillary dysentery per os. K. T. Glukhov, E. A. Volkova, G. L. Erusalimchik and L. G. Panina (Prof. Med., 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
The authors were convinced that application of dysentery vaccine in doses even up to 600 billion per day per person for 6-8 days is completely harmless. To get a good therapeutic result the vaccine should be used as early as possible - in the first day of the disease.
Is there any parallelism between alcoholism and tbc disease? Аrnoult (Revue d. hyg., 1925, no. 7)
Abstract
The author answers this question, in the negative. Neither statistics, nor clinical data, nor experiment provide any evidence in favor of the idea, once advanced by Lanceraux and still supported by many hygienists, of an etiological connection between tbc and alcoholism, and it is best left alone.
Tuberculosis of mesenteric glands. A. Sternberg (Vr. Gaz., 1926, No. 15-16)
Abstract
The author draws attention to the important clinical significance in tbc of mesenteric adenitis, which is no less important than that of tracheo-bronchial adenitis. Causing local inflammation of peritoneum, mesenteric adenitis in tbc patients, therefore, leads to pain and intestinal disorders in the form of constipation and diarrhea.
Toward calcium therapy for tuberculosis. С. P. Kosmodemyansky and K. N. Kobeleva (Journal for Advanced Medical Training, 1926, No. 6)
Abstract
The authors' observations showed that administration of CaCl2 per os has little effect on the increase of Ca in the blood, while intravenous administration leads to an increase of Ca in the blood with improvement of clinical phenomena in the body.
Combined study of liver function and X-raying of gallbladder. Faltitschek and Krasso (Wien. klin. Woch., 1926, No. 14)
Abstract
The authors propose the following method: at 8 o'clock in the evening the patient is injected intravenously with a solution of 3.0-4.0 tetrajodphenolphialeinnatri'ya in 40 c. aq. destil. After 15 min. the first ring test is made (by Kunfi). which is repeated every 15 m. until the ring disappears. The next morning the patient is X-rayed. Normally the ring test is negative 15 minutes after the infusion of the solution. In partial diseases of the liver parenchyma the test is often negative as well.
Treatment of malignant neoplasms with lead. Blair-Bell (Vrach. Ob., 1926, No. 7)
Abstract
The author uses for this purpose an aqueous electric suspension of metallic lead extracted according to Bredig's method and mixed with 0.4% gelatin. After centrifugation, this product is made hypertonic by adding 2% NaCl, 9.95% KCl, and 9.92% CaCl. This preparation contains 0.5% lead and is named S7.
Lead poisoning prevention. M. Kail (ref. in Gig. Tr., 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
The author recommends that workers at risk of inhaling or ingesting lead be given the following solution for this purpose: magn. sulph. 0.95, Na sulph. 1.25, as. sulph. 0.38, as. sulph. arom. 0.003, water in an amount of 100.0 per 13 g of mixture. Half of this solution is used to rinse the mouth, the other half is taken per os.
Effect of urotropine. I. M. Porodominsky (Urology, 1926, No. 12)
Abstract
The author was convinced that the disinfecting effect of this agent at the normally used doses of it depends solely on the formaldehyde released from it. This decomposition of urotropine into its constituent components and the detachment of formaldehyde occurs only in an acidic environment.
A new modification of anus praeternaturalis. A. N. Kruglov (Zent. f. Chir., 1926, no. 32)
Abstract
The author describes a modification of the Lambre V. method used successfully in 5 cases in the clinic of Prof. H.N. Petrov. The peculiarity of this modification is that after the usual removal of the loop of intestines, the latter is not opened, but is surrounded by a skin flap, which does not affect the movement of the intestinal contents at all.
Surgical treatment of chronic constipation. Finsterer (Wien. kl. Woch., 1926, no. 32)
Abstract
For this purpose, instead of a complete colon extirpation (colectomia totalis) according to Lanier, which gives too high primary mortality rate, the author suggests partial resection, especially in the form of removal of the left half of the colon, from the middle colonis transversi to the colon pelvinum. He performed such partial resection in 40 patients, including 39 adults and one 9-year-old child, with fatal outcome of the operation in 2 cases - a child and one adult.
Autoserotherapy of trachoma. Angеluссi (Arch. d'opht., v. 42, no. 9)
Abstract
Having used injections of these patients' own blood serum in an amount of 1-11/2 cc pro dosi in a number of trachomatous patients, at intervals of 2-3 days, the author was generally satisfied with the results obtained. The corneal complications lent themselves especially well to autoserotherapy.
Vaginal Trichomonas. Schmidt and Kamniker (Arch. f. Gyn., Bd. 127)
Abstract
Having studied the vaginal secretion of 153 women, the authors found the presence of trichomonads in 69.9% of them. It is interesting that the latter were found not only in acidic secretions, as might be thought on the basis of literature data.
On the effect of nicotine on pregnant women. O. B. Leschinskaya (Hyg. Labor, 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
A number of authors' references to the frequency of miscarriages among tobacco factory workers prompted O.B. Leschinskaya to experimentally study the effect of nicotine on pregnant women. It turned out that nicotine poisoning does give high fetal mortality. Experiments on an isolated rabbit uterus further convinced the author that in the uterus, under the influence of nicotine, an environment favorable to miscarriages and stillbirths is created.
On the prevention of abortion after operations on pregnant women. Vàrô (Zentr. f. Gyn., 1926, no. 30)
Abstract
On the basis of his own observations (30 ovariotomies in pregnant women), the author concluded that abortion occurred mainly in cases when the moment of surgery coincided with the moment of menstruation, which would have happened if the woman had not been pregnant.
Intrauterine infection of the fetus with parasitic worms. K. I. Skryabin (Prof. Med., 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
The data collected from the literature make Prof. K. I. Skryabin think that numerous species of parasitic worms of Trematodes, Cestodes and Nematodes classes can pass from the body of the pregnant mother to the fetus. Particularly frequent are those parasitic worms whose larvae spend part of their lives in the blood.
Effect of goitre extract on uterine activity and its practical application in obstetrics. Temesvàry (Zentr. f. Gyn., 1926, No. 6), Borckhardt (Zentr. f. Gyn., 1926, No. 30), Jahreiss (ib., No. 31)
Abstract
In studying the effect of thymus'estract on the musculature, Temesvàry was convinced that this extract has an excitatory effect on the contractile work of the uterus, and, in contrast to the pituitary extract, which causes long, sometimes tetanic contractions, thymus'estract causes regular, rhythmic contractions. The combined application of both extracts also gives rhythmic contractions, and the effect is stronger and more prolonged.
The value of bacteriological examination of the vaginal flora of women in childbirth. A. V. Alexandrov (Vr. Gaz., 1926. No. 15-16)
Abstract
The author finds that the results of this study do not predict the onset of puerperal disease. The author is further convinced that late coitus is not reflected in the vaginal flora, and its importance in the etiology of postpartum diseases is small.
On the dangers of caesarian section. Rother (Zentr. f. Gyn., 1926, no. 30)
Abstract
It is well known that this operation has recently become extremely widespread in obstetric practice. It is used to empty the uterus not only in term births, but also in the early stages of pregnancy. The negligible primary mortality after this operation in the hands of modern obstetricians partly justifies its enthusiasm; on the other hand, however, it should not be forgotten that it sometimes creates such changes in the uterus that threaten serious danger in subsequent pregnancy.
On the genesis of uterine fibromiomas. Schiller and Frankl (reported in Wien. kl. Woch., 1926, no. 29)
Abstract
The starting point of these tumors is not the vascular wall, as Schottländer insists, but they originate from myoblasts. However, it is difficult to say what the latter represent, whether they are undifferentiated embryonic elements in the sense of Cohnhém, or elements of an indifferent physiological zone, from which, according to Cohn and Scharer, there is a physiological increase of myometrium, for example, during pregnancy.
"Should it be reported?" Vanverts (Gyn. et Obst., 1926, no. 3)
Abstract
The author discusses the question of whether the operated and her loved ones have the right to know the full truth about the nature of her surgery, and whether the gynecological surgeon must tell them this truth, or, in some cases, must withhold some of it from those concerned?
To pathogenesis and operative therapy of encephalocele. L. E. Komendantov (Vestn. rhino-olar.-ot., 1926)
Abstract
On the basis of the study of 4 cases of this disease, Prof. L.E. Komendantov concludes that the so-called hernia of the brain (encephalocele) is not a true hernia, but a special neoplasm, in the origin of which, at least as far as meningocele type hernia of the brain is concerned, a local inflammatory process plays a well-known role.
Vaccine encephalitis. Levaditi and Nicolau (C. ren. d. 1. Soc. de Biol., 1926, no. 2)
Abstract
Recently, a number of cases of fatal encephalitis in children after smallpox vaccination have been described in the foreign press. According to Levaditi and Nicolau, in these cases the smallpox virus is not, as some think, the direct causative agent of encephalitis, and the vaccination is only a factor favoring the development of the disease in carriers of the encephalitic virus, as well as in persons in the latent period of infection.
Syphilis without chancre. Collier and Evers (Deut. m. W., 1926, No. 14)
Abstract
The possibility of general syphilitic infection in man without any signs of a primary or secondary character has long been noticed by clinicians. This fact has now been confirmed by Colle and Evers and experimentally by experiments on rabbits, to which large doses of bismuth were first injected and then infected with syphilis.
Bone changes in congenital syphilis. M. M. Reitz (Ven. and Derm., 1926, no. 4)
Abstract
Having examined 240 children with congenital syphilis with x-rays, M. M. Reitz could find specific bone diseases in 80% of them. In this case in infants Wegener's osteochondritis luetica, also periostitis and osteosclerosis, rarely hummosis processes in the periosteum and spongy substance were observed most often.
Treatment of psoriasis vulgaris by gl. thymus irradiation. A. L. Khalinsky and F. M. Abramovich (Ven. and Derm., 1926, No. 4)
Abstract
In quite a large percentage of cases of psoriasis the authors obtained good results from the X-raying of the goitre gland (Brock's method). From this the authors think that maybe in the etiology of at least a part of cases of this disease lies a hypofunction of the gl. thymus.
Treatment of subjective noises. V. A. Sgibov (J. Ears, Nose and Throat Diseases, 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
It is well known that sub'ective noises are one of the most frequent and severe companions of auricular suffering. Their cause, in spite of the many theories proposed to explain their origin, is still unknown, although all authors see an increased irritability of the auditory nerve as the basis of this disorder.
To the etiology of genuinenna ozenna. Ya. A. Galperin and L.L. Frumin (Journal of Ear, Nose and Throat Diseases, 1926, No. 7-8)
Abstract
Having studied the vegetative nervous system of 4 patients with this disease, J.A. Halperin and L.L. Frumin found that, apparently, genuinnaya ozena represents a trophoneurotic process developing on the basis of visceral system disturbance, which disturbance is characterized by weakening of the sympathetic part tone.
Nerve transplantation in the muscles of the larynx. N. Nikolaev (Vest. rhino-olar. - ot., 1926, No. 3)
Abstract
The author found that the peripheral end of the motor nerve, being directly transplanted into previously denervated muscles, takes root and enters into functional connection with the previously paralyzed muscle through newly formed terminal apparatuses.
Bernatsky's reaction.N. L. Bernatzky (from Russ.-Nem. Med. J., 1926, No. 7)
Abstract
This reaction is based on the idea that there are biochemical sex differences in the tissues of both plant and animal organisms, as a result of which the sex of the organism to which the tissue belongs can be established colorimetrically.
Female suicides. Ya. Leibovich (ref. in Vestnik. Sovr. Med., 1926, No. 7)
Abstract
According to J. Leibovich, since 1920 the relative number of suicides among women (as compared with the number of suicides among men) has increased 2.3 times in Russia. Out of 413 female suicides in 1920-1922, there were 163 among maidens, 162 among married women, and 34 among widows. There were 63 illiterates among suicides, 134 with little illiteracy, 19 with secondary education, and only one with higher education.
Prof. V. I. Glinchikov. Clinical Lectures. Course of the Faculty Therapeutic Clinic. Part II. Kubuch Publisher, Leningrad, 1926
Abstract
At one time in the pages of the "Kazan Med. Magazine" (1924, № 7) we gave a review on the first part of the clinical lectures of my esteemed pupil and fellow-professor. If the first issue of his lectures did not satisfy me in some respects, the present, second book, containing five sections, devoted to cholelithiasis, round ulcer of stomach, cancer of stomach and liver, thoracic thirst and emphysema of lungs, finally to hypertrophic cirrhosis of liver - many times surpasses the first experience of the author.
Р. Gajkovic. Behavior of a Tuberculosis Patient (in a Generally Accessible Statement). Leningrad, 1926, 58 pp. Price: 60 kopecks
Abstract
This book, small in size, contains a number of explanations and instructions concerning various points in the life of the tbc patient. It is intelligently put together and can be of considerable benefit to the patient with tuberculosis, explaining to him, in general, the essence of treatment and helping him to carry out a whole series of medical instructions and measures.
R. Gajkovic. Treatment of the Tuberculosis Patient. Modern fundamentals and methods of treatment. 3rd edition. Leningrad, 1926.372 pp. Price: 3 rubles 60 kopeks
Abstract
The author tries to cover the discussed question broadly, even in relation of tuberculosis to the constitution and endocrine glands condition. He elaborates on the early recognition of the disease; but, speaking about the methods of bacteriological and biological recognition, unfortunately, he does not give references to special works of Russian authors in this direction, at least monographs by Nikolsky, Zimnitsky and others, so his literature references make an impression of something incomplete and accidental.
Pr.-Docent M.Y. Aryev. Bronchial asthma (pathogenesis, clinic and treatment). Proc. Medicine. 1926. 120 pp. Price: 1 r. 50 k.
Abstract
The author, taking into consideration the fact that there are no monographs in Russian on such a burning issue as bronchial asthma, offers his work, which aims to cover the issue on the basis of the literature and his own experience in the clinics of Prof. K.N. Georgievsky and G.F. Lang. And it is fair to say that the monograph has touched upon the question comprehensively, both from the point of view of clinics and therapy.
Dr. N.P. Tager, lecturer at the State Institute for Advanced Training of Physicians. Duodenal ulcer (ulcus duodeni). Leningrad. 1925. Publication house of P.P. Soikin. 95 pp. and an appendix: literature and 2 tables. Price 1 r.
Abstract
The task of the author was to outline in brief, but at the same time, with as much completeness as possible, the clinical picture of a duodenal ulcer as it appears at the present time. On the basis of his extensive material; and literary data, the author has very thoroughly and skillfully dealt with the position of the question ad hoc tempus, and therefore this book can be of use to any physician both theoretically and practically, by examining and illuminating the various points of doctrine.

Ural Medical Society in Sverdlovsk
Abstract
Dr. S.A. Amchislavsky demonstrated a patient with false megalogastrium.
Dr. V.M. Onufriev presented a patient in whom he had performed an operation of artificial formation of vagina from rectum. The result was quite satisfactory, except for a small vaginal-intestinal fistula.
Medical conferences at Yaroslavl Obstetrical and Gynaecological Hospital
Abstract
In March 1926, Medical Conferences were organized at the Yaroslavl Provincial Obstetrical and Gynecological Hospital with the purpose of discussing questions of scientific and practical nature as well as questions of medical ethics. The members of the Conferences were not only doctors, but also middle medical personnel. These conferences, which took place twice a month, were attended not only by the staff of this hospital, but also by the staff of other medical institutions in Yaroslavl.
Chronicle. Vol. 22, No. 10 (1926)
Abstract
Article 155 of the Criminal Code of the RSFSR was amended to read: "Knowingly putting another person through sexual intercourse or other actions in danger of contracting a venereal disease shall be punishable by imprisonment or compulsory labor for a term of up to six months".
