Electro-Cardiographic Changes in Rheumatism

چکیده
THE baneful influence of rheumatic processes oni cardiac functioni has always been recognize(l as of paramount importance. Cardiac pathology is intimately concerned with the group of disease maniifestationis labelled 'acute rheumatism' or 'rheumatic fever.' It is anl old observationi that the more clhronic varieties of rheumatism, comprising the groups of osteo-arthritis, chronic rheumatoid arthritis, and fibrositis, have no particular predatory effect uponi cardiac structure or function. TIhese ailments affect subjects of early or mature middle age, wvhen abnormal cardiographic finl(lings are likely to be coinici(lenital rather than consequential to the chrotnic riheumatic cotnlditioni. Acute rheumatism, otn the otlher hand, shows its maximum ageincidence before thc end( of the seconid dlecade, anl( it has been trulv said that this disease "licks the joinits but bites the heart." It might reasonlably be expected that cardiographlic examiination would eniable us to trace with greater assuranice the ravages of this drea(d clisease on the virgin substance of the puerile or adolescenlt lheart.
