LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS OF TYPHOID FEVER—With Notes on Treatment

Bower, Albert G.

As indicated by a study of 41 cases of typhoid fever treated in three years, blood culture alone is often sufficient for the diagnosis of the disease if a large (30 cc.) specimen is used....

CHLORAMPHENICOL IN THE TREATMENT OF TYPHOID FEVER

Rosove, Leon, Chudnoff, Jack S., Bower, Albert G.

Six patients with typhoid fever were treated with chloramphenicol. The excellent clinical response in four cases suggests that chloramphenicol is the drug of choice in the treatment of this disease....

BIOCHEMICAL ALTERATIONS IN ACUTE HUMAN POLIOMYELITIS: ELECTROLYTE PATTERNS AND TRENDS

Bower, Albert G., Chudnoff, Jack Sheldon, Chaney, Albert L.

Pronounced alterations occur in the biochemical findings in acute poliomyelitis. These are derived from three major mechanisms: (a) inefficient pulmonary gaseous exchange, resulting in respiratory...

USE OF THE ROCKING BED TO AUGMENT VENTILATION IN PATIENTS WITH POLIOMYELITIS

Dail, Clarence W., Austin, Elizabeth, Huddleston, O. L., Bower, Albert G.

As the first step in an attempt to clarify criteria for use of the rocking bed rather than the respirator as an aid to breathing for patients with weakness of respiratory muscle function caused by...

SULFISOMIDINE IN THE TREATMENT OF PERTUSSIS

Anderson, Elmer A., Knouff, Evelynne G., Bower, Albert G.

Sulfisomidine and pertussis serum were used in the treatment of 21 patients with pertussis. Twenty of the patients were under six months of age and seven had bronchopneumonia.

MEASLES ENCEPHALITIS—A Successful Method of Treatment with Typhoid Vaccine

Knouf, Evelynne G., Bower, Albert G.

During a 12-year period 50 patients with measles encephalitis were treated with typhoid vaccine—45 of them not until they were in a vegetative state. There were no deaths in the treated cases. All...
