    1. An antibody, specifically reacting with R+ strains, was demonstrated in an immune serum obtained by injecting a rabbit either with R+100-1 strain of E.coli or with R+ strain of Salmonella
    2. E. coli r+ antiserum and S r+ antiserum were absorbed with E.coli R+ strain and Salmonella R+ strain, alternately. Thc result indicated that r+ antigens of E.coli and Salmonella wonld have their specific antigenicities as well as common antigenicity.
    3. Bacterial suspensions of E.coli R+ and Salmonella R+ strain were treated with a blendor, and the whole was centrifuged.
    Then the supernatant was recentrifuged twice. first at 18, 000 r. p. m.and then at 38, 000 r.p.m. And r+ antigenicity was demonstrated in the fraction which was sedimented by the 38, 000 r p.m.centrifugation.
    4. The r+ antigenicity of the living cells or of its ultracentrifuged fraction was lost when it was heated at 100°C for 30 min., or treated with proteinases such as trypsin, ficin or bromelin.
    It is consequently assumed that the r+ antigen would have proteinic properties.

    Cancers, fibrocystic diseases and fibroadenomas of the breast were studied biochemically with respect to the activities of alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, beta-glucurouidase, latic dehydrogenase and malic dehydrogenase.
    Activities of all enzymes were higher in mammary cancer than in normal mammary tissues, As for difference by histological type, papillary and papillotubular carcinoma showed higher activity of beta glucuronidase and alkaline phosphatase than scirrhous carcinoma.
    Activities of alkaline phosphatase and beta-glucuronidase were higher in fibrocystic disease than in normal tissue and fibroadenoma.
    As to enzyme activities in serum of patients with breast cancer, beta-glucuronidase was relatively increased in activity, but other enzymes varied in normal range.
    Effects of regional perfusion in cancer tissue were shown as fall of activity of latic and malic dehydrogenase.

    1. From normal subjects and patients with strophic gastritis, relatively good relief roentgenogtam can be obtained without any pretreatment. In contrast with this, pretreatment with parasympathetic blocking agent, digestive enzyme, and neutralizer is necessary in order to obtain good stomach relief and fine relief from patients of superficial gastritis, hypertrophic gastritis, peptic ulcer and stomach cancer.
    2. As for techniques of fine relief roentgenography of the stomach, unsatisfactory picture is generally obtained from untreated cases either by the Berg's or by the doublecontrast technique when small amounts of contrast medium (10-20cc) are used. But when medium amounts are used, the double contrast and the compression technique are adequate for untreated cases, and the double contrast technique is adequate for treated cases.
    3. As for fine relief roentgenography, it is successful without pretreatment, at 39.6% with normal subjects, at 27.3% with patients or atrophic gastritis, but only at about 10% with patients of superficial gastritis, hypertrophic gastritis, peptic ulcer and stomach cancer. And in the latter cases, the range of fine relief is confined to a part of the antrum. With treated cases, however, it is successful at high frequencies of 45.5-71.4% with any of the above cases, and range of roentgenography is extended to the corpus from the antrum.
    4) Fine relief will make significant contribution to discovery of early stage gastric lesions of stomach cancer and small ulcer.

    Korotkoff sounds on the young people recorded by an electro-cardiophonograph were newly classified into five phases according to the wave form.
    After this new classification, we established five grades from first to fifth in 326 cases, and found that the younger people had higher value than older.
    Therefore we used these grades as a sclerotic classification.
    As minimum blood pressure increased, the grade decreassd, and in cases of over 80mm Hg they showed progressive stiffening situation, while the maxium blood pressure had not so intimate relation with the sclerotic grade. Even if the maxium pressure was very high, that grade was not always so malignant. Pulse pressure had nothing to do with it. Mean pressure had most remarkable mutual relation with sclerose and in cases under 100mm Hg, they showed very good values.

    Clinical and autopsy findings were reported in the case of a 33-year-old man afflicted with palpitation and short breathing. Clinically, he was considered to be adhesive pericarditis, but no microorganism was found in the pericardial fluid. Surgical operation was performed, but he died after eight months.
    Grossly, the pericardial cavity was completely filled with pale yellow-gray tumor masses.
    Histologically, the pictures of this tumor were various, but can be classified three main types : 1) epithelial (tubular), 2) fibrosarcomatous and 3) reticulosarcomatous types. The nuclei were generally large in size and more or less polymorphic. Distant metastases and invasion into the myocardium were not observed. The histological diagnosis was diffuse mixed-typed mesothelioma of the pericardium.
    Mesothelioma of the pericardium is a rare tumor, comparing with those of the pleura and Peritoneum. The diagnosis of mesothelioma can be made only after exclusion of all other possible primary tumors such as bronchial carcinoma.
