    STUDIES IN AN ADULT HEALTH CUNIC~ RUTH M. LINDQUIST Division of Home Economics University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota The problem of the tired out, underweight patient is an ever­ present one for the medical man not only in his public practice but in his private practice as well. It becomes of equal concern to the hospital social service worker for almost daily there is referred from one of the clinics of the out-patient department the chart of a patient with the statement, "No organic trouble, follow up work on diet and daily regime advised." In each case physical examinations have failed to reveal any abnormal condition and continued conferences indicate that the initial symptoms of indefinite pains and aches, sleeplessness, fatigue, underweight and high nervous tension still exist. In fact so often does this condition become a chronic one, in which the patient does not respond at all to treatment, that many count them members of the group of so-called "neurotics." Until, however, there is a certainty that no help is of value, it seems unwise to leave to themselves so large a number of patients. Rather it becomes our responsibility to determine, if possible, the factors which are causative, the method of treatment to be used, and the results to be attained. To this end a clinic for this type of patient has been held and follow-up work has been done through the co­ operation of the Department of Internal Medicine and the Social Service Department of the University Hospital. Selection of patients was made on the basis of the medical and social records of those who had been previously registered and examined.
