The inner city: setting, subgroups, psychopathology and service.

Abstract: A large pediatric hospital in downtown Toronto served as the site of an immediate psychiatric clinic. Distinct subgroups appeared among the patients along clinical, ethnic and socio-economic lines, necessitating differing modes of intervention. While the problems of providing mental health services in this major Canadian city are many and complex, the city has not experienced the same degree of inner deterioration and violence seen in many cities in the United States.

Myokardiopathie bei Friedreichscher Ataxie

Abstract: „Meine klinische Thatigkeit an einem Orte zunachst dem Zusammenflusse zweier Strome, an deren herrliche Ufer die Natur zwischen die uppigsten Reize und lieblichsten landschaftlichen Bilder in seltsamen Kontraste die scheuslichsten Formen des Kropfes und Kretinismus, der progressiven Muskelatrophie und der mannigfaltigsten centralen Paralysen in auffalliger Zahl und Verbreitung zerstreute, bot mir so vielfache Gelegenheit fur die Beobachtung chronischer spinaler Erkrankungsformen, wie sie wohl nur selten in gleicher Weise und unter gleich gunstigen Verhaltnissen an einem anderen Orte gegeben sein mochte.“
