    Numerous studies have been reported on the permeability of the wall of blood vessels. Among these studies, the recent work which was reported by Majno and Palade (1961) was of particular interest. Physiologist, such as Huduck and Mc Master have experimentally demonstrated that some pigments which do not penetrate the wall of blood vessels under physiological condition are able to penetrate the wall of blood vessels when chemical or electrical stimulations are applied to animals. This indicates that the permeability of the wall of blood vessels can be altered under experimental conditions. Tracing the flow of substances which have moved out of blood vessels should be of interest. In the present experiment, morphological studies on the processes of movement of Indian Ink and HgS were made according to the method reported by Majno and Palade (1961).

    Working characteristics of the human body can be expressed by the pattern of mental activity because physical work is generally followed by conscious activity. When the mental work is classified as intermittent work and enduring mental work, driving should be classified as the latter. When driving, the central nervous system must continuously manage various types of stimuli (or information) arriving from circumstances of the roads. It was expected that these conditions would cause a difference in mental activity and hence EEG pattern between normal motorists and motorists who are frequently involved in traffic accidents. The state of appearance of alpha waves and the frequency of the alpha waves were comparatively investigated.

    It is desireable for cancer of lung to be treated with early diagnosis and treatment. However, cases of early stage are not always experienced. Among these, there appears to be some cases where they are associated with inf iltrations to neighbouring organs to which surgical treatment may be necessary. In this paper, cases of thoracic wall inversion with lung cancer is studied and, treatment and prognosis were discussed. Results from resected cases with lung cancer involving thoracic wall were compared with those from breast cancer and the other chest diseases.

    An epidemic of meningitis caused by ECHO virus type 4, was reported in many areas of Japan during the summer and early autumn of 1964. (1) During May to August of 1965, aseptic meningitis was prevalent chiefly in the northern parts of Kyushu. It was revealed that this was an epidemic of ECHO virus type 4. The present paper reports the results of study of this epidemic.The study is divided into the following parts:(1) Laboratory data from aseptic meningitis cases.(2) Distribution of cases according to age, sex, geography and season.(3) Antigenic and plaque characteristics of isolated ECHO virus type 4 strains.

    In 1952, Cabrera et al1)2) reported that in aortic regurgitation, diastolic overload of the left ventricle would have a different electrocardiographic manifestation than that produced by a systolic overload, as noted in aortic stenosis. They demonstrated that in cases of diastolic overload, increased voltage in the Q loop was manifested by displacement to the right and anterior ; an increase in the voltage of the R loop was manifested by displacement to the left and posterior. It was also noted that in cases of systolic overload, the Q loop became smaller or even disappeared. The R loop voltage increased and became posteriorly displaced and the S loop disappeared or became straightened. The purpose of this study is to observe the vectorcardiographic features in experimentally produced diastolic overloading of the left ventricle, and an attempt was made to search for a correlation between vectorcardiographic changes of diastolic overload and quantitative analysis of hypertrophy.
