Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Treatment of Rheumatic Infections It is Dr. Schafer´s opinion that the great variety of microorganisms, harbored by the human organism without harm to itself during periods of physiological resistance at or above par and in the absence of any solution of tissue continuity, assume pathological significance when the resistance falls below par or when a solution of tissue continuity occurs; furthermore, that certain diseases, as typhoid fever, pneumonia, tuberculosis, erysipelas, rheumatism, and others, while due to the presence of the organisms to which these diseases are usually ascribed, as B. typhosus in typhoid fever, D. pneumonioe in pneumonia, B. tuberculosis in tuberculosis, etc., owe a part of their symptoms to the complicating organisms which are always present in great variety and number. As an illustration, attention may be directed to the now commonly accepted idea that in pulmonary tuberculosis the greatest danger to the patient, much of the difficulty of the treatment, and many of the most notable symptoms, such as loss of weight, high temperature, disturbance of circulation, purulent expectoration, destruction of tissue, etc., are due to the complicating organisms; and if the so-called "mixed infection" can be checked or eliminated, efforts may be directed against the bacillus tuberculosis with far greater success than has heretofore been possible in the treatment of this condition. Dr. Schafer points to the fact that bacterial vaccines not infrequently fail of effect because the truth of the above assumption is not recognized, especially when the treatment consists in the use of a vaccine made from a single species of organism isolated from the patient. Single species vaccines have proved successful in many cases, but the multiplicity of "combined" vaccines now in use points to the conclusion that most patients who require vaccine treatment of any kind require something more than a vaccine made from one organism; and the success attending the use of these vaccines, even when the disease under treatment is apparently due to one species only, lends color to Dr. Schafer´s theory. Name. The term "Phylacogen" has been coined to distinguish the several new bacterial derivatives (devised by Dr. A. F. Schafer and produced by us) from other remedial agents of similar character that may be offered to the medical profession. Each specific Phylacogen is further identified by the prefixion of the name of the pathological condition in which it is indicated - as Gonorrhea Phylacogen, Rheumatism Phylacogen, Pneumonia Phylacogen, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
