Vi coli in Various Kinds of Disease

Abstract

Vi coli was found in various kinds of disease, viz. ekiri, endometritis, and gangrenous and non-gangrenous appendicitis, but rather infrequently. The coli bacilli, isolated from healthy person, and those suffered from the acute enteritis, pyelitis or cystitis, and coli sepsis had no Vi-antigen. It seems to be justified to say some significance of Vi coli upon the severeness of illness. Our Vi coli presented the V-W change about 1 1 /2 year after the isolation.
The present work was presented, before the Tohoku Medical Meeting, Oct. 1946.
