    In order to study the conditions of thyroid functions, convection ratio of protein-bound plasma iodine was studied and the cor relations between the convertion ratio and the clinical symptoms, the basal metabolic ratio and the thyroid-up-take ratio were examined. Changes of convertion ratio by time were also observed. The procedures were as follows;
    1. More than 500μc of I131 were administered orally
    2. By 24 hours, blood was taken, to which dioxalic acid was added
    3. Serum was centrifuged
    4. Total plasma I131 was determined by Clark-Moore-Adams-method, protein-bound plasma iodine by the Chaikoff-Taurog-Beinhardt-method
    5. Radio activity was determined by Scintillation Counter.
    Results were as follows;
    1. Overlapping convertion ratios of normal thyroid and hyperfunctioning thyroid was less than that of thyroid-up-take ratio of I131 that means that the procedure is an effective indicator of thyroid functions.
    2. The high correlations between convertion ratio and basal metabolic ratio or thyroid-up-take ratio were observed.
    3. Total plasma I131 increased rapidly during the initial period and reached at peak within one and half hour. It decreased rapidly for a short time and continued to decrease slowly.
    4. Convertion ratio increased consistently for 24 hours.
    5. There was no correlation between convertion ratio and the increase of lymphocytes or blood-sager contents.

    Erythrocytes can adsorb various substances and thereby be rendered specifically agglutinable by serum antibody directed against the substance adsorbed. The author carried out the agglutination of goat erythrocytes which adsorbed myocardium phosphatide.
    1) Direct method; one volume of 0.5% suspension of erythrocytes, which adsorbed myocardium phosphatide (0.5mg/ml) was added to one volume of serum dilution, from which normal hemagglutinin was removed. This mixture was incubated for 2 hours at 37°C and reading was made by 12 hours at room temperature.
    2) Tannic acid method; one drop of 2.5% suspension of sensitized erythrocytes treated with 1:5, 000 tannic acid in normal rabbit serum dilution (1:100), from which normal hemagglutinin was removed, was titrated to the patients' serum dilutions. This mixture incubated as above, and rearding was conducted by 12 hours in a refrigerator.
    Amounts of the myocardium phosphatide, which was necessary to sensitized erythrocytes, was enough by the use of 0.1mg/ml dilution. Tannic acid was also enough by the use of 1:20, 000 dilution. The author assertained the existence of myocardium phosphatide antigen in human sera by these hemagglutination techniques. Patients with myocardial damages showed higher titer than those without myocardial damages. A relation was found between the hemagglutination and the myocardium phosphatide precipitation. If myocardium phosphatide was added to the decholan solution, the hemolysis became intensive, and thereby the hemagglutination became almost impossible, but the final titer was the same.

    The author prepared the alcohol emulsion from the endocrine organs for the implantation, and used this as antigen and conducted precipitation reaction tests on the serum of patients.
    In the cases of implantation with either pituitary gland or epinephrical gland, the reaction was positive for both antigens of the pituitary gland and of the epinephric gland, while the reaction was less positive for the antigen of thyroid gland and it was negative for the antigen of muscle.
    The incidence and the degree of the positive became the highest by interval of several weeks after the initial implantation, or by the repeated several implantations. This lasted relatively long though it became weaker.
    The reaction seems to indicate that the implantation of endocrine organs gives certain effects on human body.

    16 out of our 440 cases with pulmonary tuberculosis, electrocardiographically considered as cor pulmonale, were observed by means of x-ray photography and several other tests.
    Results were as follows:
    1) Typical type of cor pulmonale was found electrocardiographically in 10 of the 16 cases.
    2) Abnormality of second pulmonal tone was presented phono-cardiographically in 5 of the 10 cases.
    3) Ballistocardiographically, 5 of the 7 patients under the test were abnormal, demonstrating higher H, L waves and marked increase of respiratory variation.
    4) Radiographically, none of the 16 cases showed right ventricular hypertrophy or dilatation, only one case showed protrude of the second left sided arch.
    5) Pulmonary arterial pressure was determined by heart catheterization on one patient whose pressure was at the height of 30mm/Hg and the estimation of his PAO2 suggested the presence of anoxiemia.
    6) An incidence of pulmonale P observed during pulmonary resection seemed to disappear when much oxygen was given through the intratracheal tube to the pulmonary segments.
    From the above results, the author recognized the importance of heart catheterization, and simultaneously he would suggest both ECG and BCG are available to a certain extent for the screening test of cor pulmonale, while x-ray photography is comparatively little use.

    Lumbago is an original problem in the field of orthopaedic surgery, however, its precedent diseases are remarked in the fields of gynecology, surgery, urology and internal medicine, and one must study the lumbago from every angles in order to clarify its etiology. The author examined cases of spondylitis tbc. dorsalis, lumbalis and sacroiliac joint tuberculosis (41 male cases and 45 female cases in Murayama National Sanatorium). Results were as follows;
    1) Most patients visited a physician not later than 15 days, (at the latest 6 months), after onset of their lumbago. Incidentally female patients visited a doctor earlier than the male patients, in general.
    2) Most cases suffered from lumbago for less than 3 years and more female cases suffered from lumbago more than 3 years, by the time of examination.
    3) 12 cases of the female 45 cases, whose lumbago were not arrested with orthopaedic surgery, were examined gynecologically and the following diseases were found; adnexitis chronica, retroflexio uteri fixata et mobilis, anteflexio ut. fixata, retro-sinistroversio ut. mobilis, displasia uteri, atrophia uteri, myoma uteri, functional uterus bleeding and vegetosis. 5 cases of the 12 cases were operated and their lumbago disappeared after the operation.
    The author suggests the characteristics of female lumbago cases and urges to conduct gynecological examinations for the treatment of the lumbago.
