The problems with so-called immunity tests

The so-called Stabilizer Theorem

Theorem 1.1 (Hrushovski’s Theorem 3.5). Let G be a definable group, X a definable subset, and G̃ be the ∨-definable group generated by X. Suppose all this data is defined over a model M . Suppose μ is an M-invariant translation-invariant ideal on subsets of G̃. Let q be a wide type over M , contained in G̃. Identify q with its ∧-definable set of realizations. Suppose (F) there exist two realizatio...

So-called hypertrophic emphysema.

Before discussing the pathogenesis and clinical aspects of this disease, clarification of some of the pertinent terminological definitions may be in order. Hypertrophic emphysema is the most commonly used designation of this disease. Also, it is known under the following names: genuine emphysema, idiopathic emphysema, diffuse vesicular emphysema, obstructive emphysema, dystrophlc emphysema, pul...

so-called congenital alkalosis with diarrhoea

EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS Observations are described in an 8-year-old boy, the fifth case to be recognized of the syndrome previously known as 'congenital alkalosis with diarrhoea'. The condition appears to result from an abnormal handling of chloride ion in the alimentary tract; the pathognomic biochemical features are an invariably high faecal concentration of chloride and liquid stools which consis...

Disability Associated with So-called Hysterical Amblyopia

So-called Biological Tests for Adrenalin in Blood, with Some Observations on Arterial Hypertonus

1. The combination of a biological test object on which adrenalin causes contraction of smooth muscle (perfused blood-vessels or the uterus in certain conditions) with a biological test object on which it produces inhibition of contraction of smooth muscle (intestine) greatly diminishes the chance of error in testing blood (or other body liquids) for adrenalin. A control experiment with adrenal...
