Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Archives of Dermatology Those who think that they have occasionally seen isolated cases of it previously to the recent epidemic, evidently refer to roseola. This epidemic of rötheln commenced in New York near the close of 1873, and attained its maximum prevalence in March and April, 1874, when it declined, occasional cases occurring throughout May. The first case which I observed occurred in the middle of December, in Seventy-first street, being in the suburbs of New York, on the north. A few weeks later, cases were so numerous in the thickly settled portions of the city as to attract the attention of many physicians. It was evident that a disease had appeared with which we were not familiar, and as the eruption occurred in points, or small circumscribed patches, it was, I think, usually designated by the physician, in want of a more accurate name, epidemic roseola, or was spoken of as a spurious measles. Those physicians who were familiar with foreign medical literature saw the resemblance between these cases and those of rötheln as described by British and continental observers, but in certain at least of the foreign cases the duration of the rash was said to be seven days (Liveing, Lancet, March 14, 1874, and Medical News and Library, May, 1874), whereas in the cases in New York it commonly disappeared by the fourth day. But this discrepancy was not sufficient to invalidate the belief in the identity of the New York disease with the foreign rötheln. It was readily explained by the difference in the seasons in which the cases occurred, for Liveing observed his cases in June and July, and the greater the external heat the longer the duration of the eruption, as we will see. Between the middle of December and the first of May I had observed and treated this malady in eighteen families. Cases occurred in three other families living in the same houses with some of those which I attended, and as they were fully and clearly described to me, so that there could be no doubt as to their nature, I have included them in my statistics. Forty-eight cases were observed in the twenty-one families. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
