Gastric Experiments and a Duke’s Dissection Case
A report discusses phrenology and a Duke head in an 1830s context, alongside medical notes from Clinique Paris on gastric juice experiments. It recounts juice digestion tests in a fistulous stomach with beef, bacon, bread, cabbage, and notes the effects of calomel, a Fahrenheit thermometer, and purified gastric fluid on digestibility and odor. The piece mentions Dr Beaumont, observers like Sir James Scarlett, and a pursuit by a patient that hindered further study.
