American Medical Association Sessions Open in Dallas With Infections Treatments
At the Dallas meeting of the American Medical Association eight scientific sections began annual sessions. Dr Hough S Young of Baltimore described injections of chemicals and dyes into veins to fight generalized infections. Liver extracts were discussed for lowering high blood pressure, with Canadian researchers noting rapid blood pressure falls after liver extract injections. Dr Ralph H Major described cyanidine raising blood pressure, while liver extracts showed the strongest effect in reducing pressure. Other reports covered chorea in children linked to infection and diet, hysteria in adults, and cancer of the stomach with high mortality if untreated, citing Mayo Clinic data.
