TL;DR: A method employed recording in an anatomical order pelvic tissue damage due to parturition is presented with a preliminary report of figures showing damage to the various planes and regions, and antagonists of either procedure need more detailed and objective evidence.

TL;DR: By applying a law of physics applicable to the screw, this paper finds that most of the difficulty in the passage of a baby through the birth canal is due to a “crossed thread” or improper inclination of some part of the authors' screwlike object.

TL;DR: This experience extending over a period of twelve years has firmly established iliac lymphadenectomy as a valuable adjunct in the treatment of Group II cancer of the cervix.

TL;DR: The animals were subjected to a modified maze situation in order to discover possible impairment of learning ability resulting from anoxial damage to the central nervous system, and all asphyxiated animals exhibited symptoms of neural damage for shorter or longer periods after birth.

TL;DR: During the first few years of this prestigious post, Osler was able to carve out enough time from his strict schedule to produce his greatest and most significant written work, The Principles and Practices of Medicine.

TL;DR: In each of four women with fairly normal ovarian and uterine function as shown by their ability to conceive, one or more cycles were fully studied, including pregnanediol assays, endometrial biopsies, and uterusine tracings.

TL;DR: It was concluded that gestation did not cause a withdrawal of calcium salts from the dentin and, therefore, the caries already present in this group of pregnant women was not associated with a metabolic demineralization of that tissue.

TL;DR: Since the alignment at the end of puerperium is an almost exact duplication of that assumed in the early months of pregnancy, the gravida has successfully resisted the chronic disrupting force without any significantly permanent change in the postural mechanism.

TL;DR: Seven of nine patients with functional dysmenorrhea, who obtained little or no relief following a wide variety of symptomatic and endocrine therapy, were completely relieved of their menstrual cramps and discomfort following the use of hypnosis either by itself or with hypnoanalysis and age regression.

TL;DR: Interference with the circulation of the fetus while it is still in utero appears to cause more deaths than any other condition, and malformations are second only to prematurity as a causative factor in deaths occurring in the neonatal period.

TL;DR: The BBT offers a possible method of differentiation between ovulatory and anovulatory cycles and a statistical analysis of the recorded temperatures revealed a statistically significant difference between themean temperatures of the pre- and postmenstrual phases of the biphasic cycles and insignificant differences between the mean temperature of the 2 parts of the monophasic cycle.

TL;DR: The typical ulcer history, while at times difficult to obtain, may be the decisive factor in arriving at a proper diagnosis and in instituting adequate therapy when this is indicated for peptic ulcer.

TL;DR: A total of 145 endometrial biopsies was done on 28 normal lactating women during the period of lactation amenorrhea, and there were 136 specimens which showed estrogenic changes, and of these, 20 were hypoplastic.
