[Experimental studies of the changes in the wall of the large intestine and in the parenchymatous organs in stasis of the large intestine].

The authors carried out experimental studies on 23 dogs to examine changes, which occurred in the wall of the anastomosed ileum and the large intestine as well as in some organs after performing traversed anastomoses. The results were evaluated on the basis of clinico-experimental observations, on the changes in laboratory indices (complete blood picture, proteinogram, ionogram, blood urea and cholesterol), in microflora and in bioelectrical, activity. They examined ionic absorption in the large intestine excluded from the passage. An analysis was made on the pathologo-histological finding in the colon, anastomised ileum, liver and spleen, kidneys, heart, pancreas. The authors come to conclusions, useful to the physicians performing large intestine surgery.

[Experimental study of the dynamics of alkaline phsophatase activity after a liver wound].

The investigation of alkaline phosphatase activity on 80 rabbits with an experimental model of liver wound showed the following results: 1. Alkaline phosphatase in blood serum was elevated considerably during the first postoperative days, but after the fifth day was close to the normal ranges. 2. Tissue alkaline phospatase sharply fell up to the third day. Its values began to raise after the 20th day and reached the normal level in the end of the experimental period (30th day). 3. Histochemical studies of liver wound showed a positive reaction for alkaline phosphatase in the cells of the inflammatory infiltrate during the first days. Increased phosphatase activity was demonstrated in fiber structures, epithelium of bile canals and capillary endothelium. The dynamics of alkaline phosphatase activity in blood serum is a reflection of the delicate biochemical and histochemical changes in the liver wound. The follow-up of serum alkaline phosphatase together with the clinical course of healing could be an useful index for evaluation of diet and working capacity of the patient.

The alveolar lining film in experimental pulmonary collapse.

Obstructive pulmonary collapse was produced by ligation of lobar bronchus in 41 healthy dogs. The atelectatic lung was examined electronmicroscopically by means of vapour fixation, ruthenium red procedure and tricomplex flocculation. The equilibration stability index of Pattle was determined and compared to the electromicroscopic findings. The experimentally produced obstructive pulmonary collapse was a mechanical phenomenon which secondarily caused qualitative changes in the production of the alveolar lining layer.

In the work submitted, the author makes a brief historical review of Bulgarian ethnographic literature, related, among other things, also to popular medicine investigations. Reference is made to authors as Dr. Yuri Ivanovich Venelin (1825), G.S. Rakovsky (1859), and after the liberation of Bulgaria: Tzani Ginchev Shkeparnev, one of the outstanding protagonists for collecting facts and materials in the field of popular medicine in this country, M. Georgiev, Hr. Popstoilov, K. Irechek, Iv. D. Shishmanov and others. A description is made of the traditional methods of treatment with herbs, charms, healers and the like. Due attention is given also to the popular conceptions and explanation of the contributing factors of diseases, looking for the rationale in them and giving special consideration to the superstitious traces, inherited from the ancient Thracians. It is stressed that the items published heretofore in the "Comopilation of national folklore and literature", covering the field of popular medicine, constitute a great, unique in its significance, national wealth which is seldom found in other countries and which might be utilized by modern medicine as well as for drawing important ethnogenetic inferences.
