Walter Edwin Griesbach (1888-1968) Life and Work Viola Angelika Schwarz Walter Edwin Griesbach (1888-1968) Life and Work This thesis was submitted for the degree of a doctor of medicine at the “Institute of Medical History”, Eberhard-Karls-University of Tübingen/Germany, supervisor Prof. Dr. Dr. D. Goltz (grade: magna cum laude) Partly translated from German into English by John S. Dawson†, MA (NZ), PhD (Toronto), Dunedin, 2002 Edited by Andrew Brook†, D.V.Sc., Narooma, Australia Published in German by: Peter Lang GmbH, Frankfurt/Main, Germany, 1999 ISBN 3-631-34446-5 Medico Magistrali I may not expect that, from the flight of fate, years have passed me by without a trace. Each one seized the spokes of my wheel, Spun it around, stopped, and left its mark. One struck me in the gall bladder, another slowly bowed my neck, Many of them laid their hands on my face: Light spread inside me, yet the day’s beams faded. That in turn had its effect on the joints of my sole and foot, My step grew heavy, my ankle began to twist. This took the pleasure from vigorous slurping and munching, It tortured my fingers in claw-like cramp. One stroked over my hair, so that it was streaked with grey, And banished me from the daughters to the mothers. The gloss fades, just as on the antique sideboard – The dowling splits, the drawer screeches: you’re out of fashion! But stand tall, with lively spirit, when the naked whirlwind Wildly tears at old trees and clumps of branches, And invisibly my little bird cuts victoriously through the thunderous song of the giant: My bird’s heart beats powerfully, Whether it is rejoicing or afraid, for it is not made to linger in limbo.

  • Paul Ehrlich
    Paul Ehrlich Paul Ehrlich (geboren am 14. März 1854 in Strehlen, Regierungsbezirk Breslau, Provinz Schlesien; gestorben am 20. August 1915 in Bad Homburg vor der Höhe[1]) war ein deutscher Mediziner und Forscher. Durch seine Färbemethoden unterschied er verschiedene Arten von Blutzellen, wodurch die Diagnose zahlreicher Blutkrankheiten ermöglicht wurde. Mit seiner Entwicklung einer medikamentösen Behandlung der Syphilis begründete er die moderne Chemotherapie. Außerdem war er entscheidend an der Entwicklung des Heilserums gegen Diphtherie beteiligt, die üblicherweise Emil von Behring alleine zugeschrieben wird. Als Direktor des Instituts für experimentelle Therapie arbeitete er die Methoden für die Standardisierung („Wertbemessung“[2] bzw. Wertbestimmung) von Sera aus. 1908 erhielt er zusammen mit Ilja Metschnikow für seine auf dem Gebiet der Serumsforschung entwickelten Beiträge zur Immunologie den Nobelpreis für Physiologie oder Medizin.

  • Thomas Peel Dunhill, the Forgotten Man of Thyroid Surgery
    THOMAS PEEL DUNHILL, THE FORGOTTEN MAN OF THYROID SURGERY by I. D. A. VELLAR* THE MODERN surgeon approaches the surgery of thyrotoxicosis with confidence, the confidence derived from the excellence of modem anaesthesia, the euthyroid state of the patient and the knowledge that blood transfusion, antibiotics and the specific management of the occasional crisis are always available to extricate the patient from any of these complications. Though full of confidence in his own and others' abilities, he usually matches this by a profound ignorance of the contribution of the thyroid pioneers whose activities at the turn of the century helped to lay the foundation for the safe management of the thyrotoxic. One of these pioneers was an Australian, Thomas Peel Dunhill (fig. 1), whose contributions to thyroid surgery have been almost entirely forgotten. To understand fully the role of Dunhill, it is important to look at the position of thyroid surgery and in particular, the surgery of toxic goitre at the turn of the nineteenth century and in the first two decades of the twentieth century. It will then be possible to appreciate more fully the achievements of these thyroid pioneers, who enabled the mortality of the surgery of toxic goitre to be reduced from 30-50 per cent (it was 30 per cent at St. Thomas's Hospital, London, as recently as 1910) to a minute fraction of one per cent today. The early history of the surgery of the thyroid gland may be traced in Halsted's painstaking compilations included in his article. 'The operative story of goitre- the author's operation' in the Johns Hopkins Hospital Reports, 1920.1 However, the recognition of goitre goes back many thousands of years.

  • Glycolysis and Gluconeogenesis
    CC7_Unit 2.3 Glycolysis and Gluconeogenesis Glucose occupies a central position in the metabolism of plants, animals and many microorganisms. In animals, glucose has four major fates as shown in figure 1. The organisms that do not have access to glucose from other sources must make it. Plants make glucose by photosynthesis. Non-photosynthetic cells make glucose from 3 and 4 carbon precursors by the process of gluconeogenesis. Glycolysis is the process of enzymatic break down of one molecule of glucose (6 carbon) into two pyruvate molecules (3 carbon) with the concomitant net production of two molecules of ATP. The complete glycolytic pathway was elucidated by 1940, largely through the pioneering cotributions of Gustav Embden, Otto Meyerhof, Carl Neuberg, Jcob Parnad, Otto Wrburg, Gerty Cori and Carl Cori. Glycolysis is also known as Embden-Meyerhof pathway. • Glycolysis is an almost universal central pathway of glucose catabolism. • Glycolysis is anaerobic process. During glycolysis some of the free energy is released and conserved in the form of ATP and NADH. • Anaerobic microorganisms are entirely dependent on glycolysis. • In most of the organisms, the pyruvate formed by glycolysis is further metabolised via one of the three catabolic routes. 1) Under aerobic conditions, glucose is oxidized all the way to C02 and H2O. 2) Under anaerobic conditions, the pyruvic acid can be fermented to lactic acid or to 3) ethanol plus CO2 as shown in figure 2. • Glycolytic breakdown of glucose is the sole source of metabolic energy in some mammalian tissues and cells (RBCs, Brain, Renal medulla and Sperm cell). Glycolysis occurs in TEN steps.

    TRINITY MEDICINE POISED FOR FURTHER SUCCESS For centuries, the Trinity College Dublin School of Medicine has contributed to medical education, research and practice not just in Ireland but at a global level. Eminent physicians such as William Stokes and Robert Graves not only wrote the textbooks used in medical education around the world but were the clinical researchers of their day, identifying and describing the conditions that to this day bear their names. These were the medical leaders of their time and we intend to preserve their legacy by educating and preparing exceptional doctors who can lead the profession in the 21st century. Furthermore, it is our responsibility will help improve and save the lives of academics to help us leverage the to ensure that excellence in medical many.

IVRLA1 RESEARCH REPORT: THE DUBLIN JOURNAL OF MEDICAL AND CHEMICAL SCIENCE CATALOGUE John Mullen and Harriet Wheelock (Researchers) 1. CONTEXT The aim of this project is to provide a full and complete catalogue of The Dublin Journal of Medical and Chemical Science (DJMS)2 from its establishment in 1832 to 1949. DJMS is the longest established medical periodical in Ireland, and is an invaluable source for the history and development of medicine in Ireland. Amongst its contributors and editors are some of the most famous Irish medical practitioners of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In their survey of the literature on Irish medical history Malcolm and Jones have shown that in the past histories of medicine of Ireland have tended to be narrowly focused on institutions, biography and public health, and to be descriptive in nature (1). This project aims to open up DJMS as a source for medical historians who are developing an analytical and contextual approach to their subject, and will hopefully develop further interest in the history of Irish medical publications.

  • The Life and Labours of Robert James Graves, M.D
    THE DUBLIN JOURNAL oF I IEDICAL SCIENCE. JANUARY 1, 1878. PART I. ORIGINAL COMMUNICATIONS. ART. I.--The Life and Labours of Robert James Graves, M.D2 By JAMES FOULIS DUNCAN, M~.D.; ex-President, King and Queen's College of Physicians, &c. MR. PRESIDENT,--I have been requested by the Committee appointed to erect a statue to the memory of the late Professor Graves to give a short account of their proceedings, now that their labours have been brought to a close, and to make a few remarks introductory to the proceedings of the day. Some four years ago Dr. Hudson, who then filled the Chair which you now so worthily occupy, on the completion of his pre- sidential career, requested the College to appropriate the then vacant space on your right to a memorial of the late Professor Graves, corresponding in character and dimensions to the other figures which now adorn this hall. This suggestion was at once cordially agreed to. Shortly afterwards a meeting was called of members of the profession and other persons likely to sympathise with the movement, when a large and influential Committee was appointed to carry out the design, Dr. Stokes and Dr. Hudson, with the late Sir W. Wilde, being appointed secretaries. And here, it is only justice to say, that the late Sir W. Wilde, whose untimely death every true-hearted Irishman must deeply lament, a An Address delivered at the unveiling of the statue of Dr. Graves in the tta]l of the College of Physicians, Wednesday, December 19, 1877.
