    Authers express sharpness, scattering, exposure, on magnified high valtage roentgenography expecially the relationships between focus and penumbra. were studied. The factors of exposure were 125K.V.p., target-film distance 200cm, Kyokko's F.S. intensifying screen, rotating anode of 0.3×0.3mm by Siemens Heliophos Super.

    The influence of several methods of anaesthesia on the fibrinolysis was observed. Results obtained were summarized as follows : The rate of fibrinolysis was parallel to the degree of the surgical invasion, and in animal experiments, fibrinolysis was inhibited by the administration of rabonal, In human cases Anaesthesia, especially general anesthesis by ether inhibited remarkablly the rate of fibrinolysis at the surgical operation.

    The Gm serum factor (Gma) was described by Grubb in 1956. He observed that the pooled human γ-globulin will inhibit the agglutinating activity of selected rheumatoid arthritis patient s serum against the red cells coated with selected incomplete anti-Rh. With the same technic, he furtherde. monstrated that individual human serum can be grouped in two phenotypes, Gm (a+) and Gm (a-), depending on presence or absence of the inhibitor or Gma factor in the serum under test. The factor is associated with γ-globulin and genetically controlled. Up to date, the data on the Gm factor are rather limited, but there is a good evidence to assume the racial difference of the factor in its distribution. Thus it has an incidence of abaut 60% among European Caucasoids, 95% among Esquimaux and 100% among African Negroes. The assumption was further supported by the following investigation on Japanese. Over 800 serum specimens obtained from blood donors were studied and more than 98% of thepopulation in Tokyo and Kumamoto districts was found to carry the Gma factor. It was also recon-firmed that the factor is apparently transmitted as a dominant Mendelian charctor. Since the Gm factor is genetically tranmitted, Gm grouping may be applied to human genetics, forensic medicine and anthropology as a useful adjunct to the usual blood grouping procedures.

    In experiment of cryptococcal meningitis of dogs, effect of adrenal cortical hormone was studied. 1) When hydrocortisone in different doses and the fungus were intrathecally injected at the same time, all dogs died of typical cryptococcal meningitis in a few days. It was also found that the fungus having no capsule did not produce capsule in Sabouraud's liquid media containing hydrocortisone. The hormone would, therefore, seem to interfere with host defense mechanism, and clinical use of the hormone to cryptococcal meningitis was considered to be contraindicated. 2) A method of distinguishing cryptococcal meningitis from bacterial meiningitis was proposed. In experimental cryptococcal meningitis of dogs, a significant amount of cerebrospinal fluid ammonia was found. This would seem to due to urease of the fungus. No significant amount of alcohol or ammonia was found in any case of meningococcal, tuberculous, serous meningitis. 3) In histologic and mycologic examination, unusual affinity of the fungus for leptomeninges was considered.

    For the purpose of obtaining the high-titer suspension of poliomyelitis virus, the author cultivated the virus on monkey kidney cells and human amnion cells in vitro using the sub-synthetic mixture including casaminoacid, which was simplified synthetic mixture No. 199 in our laboratory. This subsynthetic mixture could be used sufficiently for the cultivation of the polio virus as well as the mixture No. 199. At the same time, the author discribed the process of the cytopathogenic effect observed in monkey kidney cells and human amnion cells infected with polio virus in vitro. The author observed the appearance of eosinophilic masses in the cytoplasm and the nuclear pyknosis. And finally the infected cells showed the cytolysis accompanied with cytoplasmic bubbling.

    This 65-year-old woman entered because of a 2-day illness characterized by a pleuritic type of pain in the chest. Examination revealed leucocytosis with juvenile leucocyte and increased red blood cell sedimentation rate. She had no high fever in her course of illness. X-ray of chest showed increased density in right upper and middle area with pneumonic consolidation. Autopsy revealed lobarpneumonia of both side with necrosis and edema. Histologically, many “big vesicular cells” which phagocytized Friedländer's bacillus filled in alveoli. This bacillus obtained from the lung at autopsy was susceptible to polymyxin B and non-susceptible to streptomycin.
