Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Glycosuria and Allied Conditions The work on diseases of the pancreas which I commenced some fourteen or fifteen years ago made it necessary for me to familiarise myself with much that had been written on diabetes and allied conditions. Since then I have kept in touch with the literature, and also carried out many researches bearing on these subjects, while an increasing number of cases of pancreatic disease and diabetes having been sent to me for observation and treatment, I have had considerable opportunity of extending my clinical knowledge of the various types of glycosuria. At the request of several friends in the profession I have eventually consented to collect in an accessible form the conclusions I have arrived at, and at the same time summarised the work of others. Glycosuria is essentially a chemical problem, and it therefore seemed to me advisable that it should be attacked from a chemical standpoint, leading from this to its pathology, symptomatology, diagnosis, and treatment. I have consequently first dealt with the tests, differentiation, and quantitative estimation of the reducing substances met with in the urine, prefacing this by a brief summary of the chemistry and physiology of the carbohydrates and their derivatives. For those who are interested in the chemical questions involved, I have considered this part of the subject more fully in the Appendix. The experimental production of glycosuria in animals has naturally received attention before the pathology of human diabetes has been considered. In this connection I have dealt at considerable length with the relation of the ductless glands, and particularly the pancreas, to glycosuria, but, I hope, not more fully than the importance of the subject warrants. Although for convenience´ sake the simpler forms of alimentary, transitory, and intermittent glycosuria have been dealt with separately, it is important that it should be realised that they pass by a gradual transition, with no well-defined boundary, into persistent glycosuria, and this in its turn into typical "diabetes." As yet the treatment of glycosuria is primarily dietetic, and it is therefore important that the metabolism of the healthy organism, and the variations that occur in association with the presence of sugar in the urine should be thoroughly understood, for this reason they have been written of in some detail.
