Released on J-STAGE: May 24, 2011
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSPULMONARY tuberculosis patients were classified into four groups of 1. mild cases, 2. moderate cases, 3. advanced cases and 4. fatal cases which died within 1 month after present examination for the observations of the properties of blood monocytes.View full abstractDownload PDF (2169K) -
MASATOSHI MATSUOKA1954 Volume 29 Issue 2 Pages 42-46

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIN a series of 15 healthy persons and 45 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis, the bacteriostatic effect of the blood on tubercle bacilli (Frankfurt strain) was determined by slide cell culture method (SCC), and observations were made on the relation between this bacteriostatic effect and the plasmaprotein components, measured by Tiselius' electrophoresis technique, and the sedimentation time of the red blood cells. Following are the results obtained thereof:View full abstractDownload PDF (1341K) -
TAIJI OKADA1954 Volume 29 Issue 2 Pages 47-54

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSON the synergistic and additive action between dihydrostreptomycin (DSM), and other antituberculous agents, such as TB1, cepharanthin (CP), vitamin K1 (VIK1), PAS and INAH, against three streptomycin (SM) resistant variants—10γ/cc, 250γ/cc and >1, 000γ/cc respectively—of human tubercle bacilli, growth inhibition tests were carried out in Kirchner's media containing various dilutions of compounds. The data showed more or less synergistic effects in every combination of two compounds similar to those observed in the case of streptomycin sensitive strains. But, there were several cases in which the synergism was remarkably different in proportion to the degrees of resistance to SM.View full abstractDownload PDF (2154K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTHE diagnostic value of the hemagglutination test, as described by Middlebrook and Dubos, and modified by Kumagai, in human and experimental tuberculosis was discussed.
1. The sera of 150 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and 50 normal persons were tested.
The tests were positive in 83.3 per cent of the tuberculous patients and in only 13.3 per cent of normal persons.
The positive rate was 51.2 per cent in minimal tuberculosis, 73.6 per cent in moderately advanced form and 100 per cent in far advanced form respectively.
The group of far advanced tuberculosis showed the highest positive rate. Any possibility of the cross reaction with Wassermann reaction was not recognized.
2. The hemagglutinin titer seemed indifferent from the intensity of tuberculin reaction.
3. In rabbits inoculated subcutaneously or intravenously, maximum hemagglutinin titer was observed during the period of from 20th to 30th day after the time of infection, followed by gradual decrease after that. Here also any parallelism between the hemagglutinin titer and the intensity of tuberculin reaction was not confirmed, but there was found a close relationship between the former and the hemobacteriostatio power measured by slide cell culture method.View full abstractDownload PDF (1397K) -
MIKIO KOBATAKE1954 Volume 29 Issue 2 Pages 60-63

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIN an attempt of extracting some antibacterial substances from the earthworm, we obtained a substance having bacteriostatior bactericidal influence on human type tubercle bacilli, but not on several strains of non-acid-fast pathogenic microorganisms and saprophytic mycobacteria in vitro. The extracts from the earthworm by 3% glacial acid solution or 2.5% sulphuric acid solution were bacteriostatic in a concentration of 0.6 to 1% against human type tubercle bacilli. The latter was bactericidal in a concentration of 1% and relatively heat-stable. The extracts by ethanol or petroleum benzine were bactericidal in a 1.6 × 103 dilution, bacteriostatic in a 3.2 × 103 dilution and retained their antimycobacterial activities unchanged for five months at room temperature, but heating for 1 hour at 100°C decreased their activities to 1: 4 of the original ones.View full abstractDownload PDF (1196K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTHE skin test with the purified tuberculin, K. P. T., obtained after Kurakane's procedure was performed on 3697 persons who were not vaccinated with ECG and its potency was compared with the old tuberculin (0.1cc of a 1: 2, 000 dilution) standardized by the National Institute of Health in Tokyo.

First Report: NUCLEIC ACID, ALKALINE PHOSPHATASE AND ACID MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDE IN THE PULMONARY LESIONS OF TUBERCULOSIS PATIENTSSHOJI HATTORI1954 Volume 29 Issue 2 Pages 70-74

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSHISTOCHEMICAL observation was performed on the pulmonary tissue sections of tuberculosis patients. Stainings employed were hematoxylin eosin stain, anilin fuchsin stain for tubercle bacilli, silver stain for fibers, Van Gieson's stain, Hotchkiss' polysaccharide stain, metaohromasia of toluidin blue, znethylgreen pyronin stain, Feulgen's stain for DNA, Gomori's alkaline phosphatase reaction, glycogen stain and per oxydase reaction. Hyaluronidase, pepsine and ribonuelease were used simultaneously. The results obtained are as follows:View full abstractDownload PDF (1341K)
