VIII “A biologia me ensinou a examinar uma área submetida à evolução sempre em sua história evolutiva [...] Da mesma maneira, qualquer teoria do conhecimento sem estudos históricos ou comparados permaneceria um jogo de palavras vazio, uma epistemologia imaginária (Epistemologia imaginabilis)”. Ludwick Fleck. Gênese e Desenvolvimento de um Fato Científico. [1935], 2010. IX RESUMO O trabalho discute como o processo de construção do diagnóstico da paralisia geral progressiva (PGP) influenciou a consolidação do campo neuropsiquiátrico no Rio de Janeiro. O recorte temporal inicia-se em 1868, data da publicação da primeira fonte identificada que aborda aspectos da referida doença. A investigação documental encerra-se no ano de 1924, quando passa a ser utilizado, no Rio de Janeiro, o primeiro tratamento considerado específico para a PGP, a malarioterapia. A análise contempla teses médicas, relatórios administrativos, livros e artigos publicados em diferentes periódicos. Conclui-se que a PGP fora enquadrada pelo campo neuropsiquiátrico carioca a partir da apropriação de ferramentas consideradas pela medicina geral como científicas e objetivas, em diferentes épocas. Os debates acerca dos contornos da enfermidade iniciaram-se articulados aos referenciais provenientes do campo da anatomia patológica, que floresceu durante o oitocentos, transformando a PGP na primeira doença mental que evidenciava a relação entre lesões materiais e sintomas clínicos, de acordo com o discurso de muitos médicos do período. Durante o novecentos, a sífilis ganhou papel de destaque como causa da PGP, aproximando as discussões sobre a última de temas como as teorias da degeneração e racializadas. Ao tomar parte nestas contendas, neuropsiquiatras buscavam conferir legitimidade social a sua especialidade, demonstrando seu valor no processo de construção de uma nação brasileira civilizada e saudável. Neste momento, a importância dos laboratórios ganhava proeminência na retórica destes profissionais e, mais uma vez, a PGP permitiu que ferramentas diagnósticas e terapêuticas consideradas mais objetivas pelos diferentes campos médicos fossem apropriadas por parte deles. Mesmo vitimando um número pouco significativo de indivíduos, a doença viabilizou o diálogo entre cientistas de diferentes especialidades. Ao discutir aspectos relacionados ao processo de construção do diagnóstico da paralisia geral progressiva, a presente tese pretende contribuir para o enriquecimento do arcabouço historiográfico relativo à história da psiquiatria no Brasil. X ABSTRACT This research discusses how the framing of general paralysis of the insane (GPI) engaged with the professionalization of neuropsychiatry in Rio de Janeiro. The investigation begins in 1868 when the first source that addresses aspects of the disease was published. It ends in 1924, when the first specific treatment for GPI, the malariotherapy, was put in practice in Rio de Janeiro. The analysis is mainly based on medical thesis, administrative reports, books, and articles published in different academic journals. This work concludes that PGP framing process occurred

  • Pdf Maximiliano Rubín and the Context of Galdos's Medical Knowledge
    97 MAXIMILIANO RUBÍN AND THE CONTEXT OF GALDÓS’S MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE Michael W. Stannard The Medical Context Galdós’s interest in doctors, medicine and abnormal mental states is well known and has been the subject of many studies.1 More than 50 doctors populate the pages of his fiction prompting Granjel to refer to a “colegio médico galdosiano” (167). Almost invariably these physicians are portrayed in a favorable light (García Lisbona, 105, note 3), epitomized particularly in the combination of scientific outlook and humane concern of Galdosian characters such as Augusto Miquis, Teodoro Golfín and Moreno Rubio. References to medications abound in the novels 2 while the medical sciences appear in a significant sample of Galdós’s journalistic articles more often than any other science.3 It is somewhat surprising, therefore, that Galdós’s knowledge of the medical sciences of his time should remain incompletely explored. It is the purpose of this paper to draw attention to the depth of Galdós’s understanding of the medical advances of his day, which still remains under-appreciated. Galdós wrote at a time of revolutionary changes in medicine. Gradually replacing the older vitalistic and humoral conceptions of disease, positivist medicine emanating especially from France identified anatomical abnormalities associated with many diseases (Laín Entralgo 273-308). Microscopical studies by Virchow and others from the 1840s onwards identified the cellular basis of disease. From the 1860s Pasteur and Koch showed the role of bacteria in infection while Lister found practical applications in his antiseptic, and later, aseptic techniques that revolutionized the scope and safety of surgery.

  • Towards a History of Infective Endocarditis
    Medical History, 1996, 40: 25-54 Towards a History of Infective Endocarditis ALAIN CONTREPOIS* Infective endocarditis is a serious heart disease which is sometimes very difficult to diagnose and treat despite the progress made over the last few decades. The complex nature of the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in this disease is reflected in the countless number of scientific studies still being done on it.1 At the end of the eighteenth century and during the first half of the nineteenth century, the anatomo-clinical method facilitated the gradual establishment of correlations between a lesion discerned during autopsy and symptoms observed in the live patient. It then became a question of bringing together what were, until then, separate individual observations. The very term "endocarditis", referring to an individual tissue and an inflammatory process, goes back to early-nineteenth-century clinicians such as Broussais and Bouillaud, before the germ theory and the birth of bacteriology. However, it was very difficult for doctors of that period to define endocarditis in a simple, unequivocal manner. There was not always a clear relationship between the ideas which late historians have supposed fed each other; the arguments were confusing, tortuous, circular, and dead-end. In his discussion of syphilis, Ludwik Fleck correctly pointed out that disease is a constructed, ever-changing phenomenon which constantly integrates new information and concepts.2 Thus, the term "endocarditis" continued to be used for a disease which underwent endless development throughout the nineteenth century. There was also modification of the aetiological links between anatomical abnormalities, clinical symptoms and observations during autopsy.

  • The Clinician, Germs and Infectious Diseases: the Example of Charles Bouchard in Paris
    Medical History, 2002, 46: 197-220 The Clinician, Germs and Infectious Diseases: The Example of Charles Bouchard in Paris ALAIN CONTREPOIS* The space of a few decades, at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century, saw the establishment in France of "la pathologie infectieuse", a new discipline or medical speciality that gave rise to new clinical and laboratory practices and concepts.' Historical studies on this subject have focused, above all, on the theoretical aspects and have tended to attribute a privileged role to Louis Pasteur. The majority of French historians have simply analysed the "Pasteurization" of French medicine and implicitly assumed the validity of this analysis for western medicine and the overall importance of the French hygienist movement, the role of the "go-betweens" of Pasteurism's influence on Pasteurian "know-how" and "network".? In 1984, Bruno Latour broke with eulogistic historiography, but still maintained Pasteur's central role to the extent that he controlled the network that he had created, that is to say, the mediators between his laboratory, hygiene and the clinic.3 But little has been said about these clinicians.4 It seems that this way of viewing them, as mere importers of Pasteurian ideas, neglects the fact that these practitioners themselves did laboratory work, using approaches different from Pasteur's, whether they worked on etiology, made use of bacteriological tools and appropriated clinical bacteriology to their own interests, and raised their own questions, not necessarily those of Pasteur's laboratory, in relation to their experiences as practising doctors. * Dr Alain Contrepois, Centre de Recherche 2See, for example, Francois Dagognet, Medecine, Sciences, Sante et Societe (CERMES), Methodes et doctrines dans l'aeuvre de Pasteur, 182 Boulevard de la Villette, 75019 Paris, France.

This essay answers the question of how Jean- Martin Charcot became famous. In placing Charcot s career in its historical context, it provides an analysis of the strategies used by him to ensure his status as one of the most famous French physicians of the latter half of the nineteenth century. It presents a study of two important chapters of the history of French academic medicine, placing both in the conceptual framework of the transition between knowledge and power. It discusses the youth and early careers of Charcot and his medical ally Alfred Vuipian (1826-1887).
