Summary1. The hepatic uptake of rectally administered I131has been studied in 36 patients.2. A wide range of values was obtained in normal subjects.3. There was considerable overlap between the range of values obtained in normal subjects and in patients with cirrhosis of the liver and hepatic tumours; the mean values for each group were almost identical.4. These results do not support the findings and conclusions of previous workers.

摘要:

Summary1. Experimental studies on immunity to tumours in animals show that tumour growth is modified by an immunological reaction provided that the immunological system of the host is intact and the tumour carries antigens which are different to those of the host and therefore recognizably “foreign.”2. Human cancers show deletions of normal antigens and also contain new antigens. Human patients with cancer may show reactivityin vitroagainst their own tumours, and immunological reactivity in vivo is evidenced by infiltration with lymphocytic and plasma cells; this is associated with a slower growth for certain human tumours.3. Human patients with cancer have a general impairment of immunological reactivity and it is suggested that this permits the emergence of cancer.4. The thymus plays an important role in regulating the development and maintenance of immunological reactivity. The declining size of the thymus with age was correlated with the rising cancer incidence with age. Declining thymic activity may lead to impaired immunological function and this may allow the development of human can

摘要:

Summarythe follow‐up of a patient who sustained a rupture of the deep urethra and ensuing multiple fistulae, first seen eighteen months after injury in 1957, shows eight years after reconstruction, and nine and one half years after the original injury, a result which should encourage all surgeons to attempt this reconstruction. at least nothing is to be lost and all is to be regained, except perhaps fertility.the injuries involve, often, good quality lives.reconstruction operation should be chosen in preference to recto‐vesicostomy, in the writer's opinion.primary repair results are encouraging and no strictures have so far been seen in four primary and one major secondary reconstruction.all patients so treated will be followed up, including comparatively recent repairs, not here included.retropubic primary and secondary repair is again recommended in this serious inj
