Hardening of the Arteries in Ihe tion will clear up with time.
Legs, Wiih Cramps and Pain
Many elderly persons get se
ver pain in the legs if they try
to walk fast. They have to stop
and, after a
few minutes,
they can go on
again. This is
called inter
mittent claudi
cation, and is
due to the nar
rowing of an
artery in the
leg. With this
narrowing on-
if
as
men.
. Dr Alvarez
ly enough blood gets through
for a resting muscle. When the
muscle is active and needing
more blood, not enough for it
can corru through. Then comes
pain.
An expert can usually tell
with tests whether it pays to try
any of the drugs that are used
to help this sort of thing. Ex
perts tell me that in most cases
the arteries are so stiff that even
the best of the drugs will not do
much good. In some cases, after
tests show that the arteries can
dilate with the help of drugs, a
surgeon may go in in the back,
and cut the sympathetic nerves
that supply the arteries. After
these nerves are cut, the arteries
may remain more widely open
ed, and then they may supply
an adequate amount of blood. In
other cases the arieries are so
stiff that cutting the nerves will
not help.
Today, in bad cases, expert
surgeons are cutting in, and re
placing the narrowed bit of ar
tery with a ' prepared piece of
artery from an animal, or an
artery made of nylon or some
other material.
Naturally, most of us physi
cians do not see enough of this
new type of work to know much
about it, and hence usually the
person will do well to go to
some large clinic or university
center where he can find the
experts who know how to trans
plant segments of arteries. It is
a wonderful new advance in
surgery.
Encephalitis, or
"Sleeping-Sickness"
There are several forms of en
cephalitis or brain fever or sleeping-sickness
that are due to dis
tinct viruses. With some of these
infections the person recovers
apparently completely, while in
others, he or she is left mentally
or nervously injured, perhaps
for life. We now know that in
some cases of severe measles
and other diseases of childhood,
including polio, the virus of the
disease, or another virus present
in the brain with it, produces an
acute encephalitis. This may
show itself at the time as a se
vere headache, perhaps a stiff
nek and apathy, toxicity and
some somnolence. Some of the
problem children, and children
with a retarded mind owe their
lifelong handicap to such a
"brain fever."
Whenever, after a bad attack
of measles or whooping-cough or
mumps, a previously healthy
child becomes mentally retarded
and perhaps difficult to handle
at home and at school, it is well
to have an electroencephalogram
made. This may show that in
some part of the brain, the tiny
currents are abnormal, indicat
ing that this part has been in
jured. We doctors may not have
a cure for the condition, but at
least we'll know that the boy is
ill, and not just "bad." Then we
must be as patient as we can be
with him. Sometimes the condi-
Tendency to Attack Brain
At intervals a particular strain
of the influenza virus, or one of
the common viruses that go
through the community, produc
ing an epidemic of fever and
sore throat, may have a special
tendency to attack the brain.
Then many of the victims will
suffer from headache and great
feelings of fatigue and toxicity.
In the terrible influenza epi
demic of 1918, I had only a very
mild attack of the disease, but it
appeared to have "an encephali
tic component" because, for a
year afterward, my brain felt
tired, and I lacked my normal
feeling of nervous comfort and
good health. I had to push my
self to work.
Unfortunately, only a few of
the so-called large viruses, the
particles of which are large, are
affected by antibiotics.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE
Placebo Found To Often Have Same Effect as 'Happiness Pills1
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York W A psychia
trist of experimental bent has
found that a majority of his
over-anxious or over-tense pa
tients respond quite well to a
placebo as to "happy pills."
A placebo is anything which
is known positively to have no
physical effect whatever when
taken into the human body. If
it does produce an effect, that
effect is produced by the power
of suggestion.
To compare the effect of any
chemical compound believed to
be active within the human
body with the effect of a place
bo "given-for-real" is, therefore,
to subject it to a tough test.
Dr. Robert R. Schopach, psy
chiatrist at the Henry Ford Hos
pital, Detroit, used the test in
obsessional, anxious and tense
neurotic patients a placebo
opposed to the "happy pill,"
meprobamate which is sold
under the trade names "Mil-
town and 'Equinol.
Same Effects Produced
In a majority of the patients,
what effect one produced, the
other produced. No one should
understand this to mean that
the pill's only power is that of
suggestion, since there is no
question of it being chemically
active inside the human body.
However, the doctor's point
was that suggestion plays a part
in how people respond to any
tning they take into themselves.
For instance, he found that with
promazine which is a "tranquil
izer" much more powerful
chemically, than meprobamate,
seven out of 22 neurotic patients
"felt just as well on a placebo."
He was reporting in the hospi
tal's technical bulletin on the
many new medicines which are
intended to reduce anxiety.
"None of these drugs are cures
but may.be useful crutches " he
said. "The patient should always
be evaluated to determine if
psychotherapy might not be
more helpful in a curative direc
tion." Addiction Feared
In another report on "tran
quilizers," which is a red-hot
subject in medical science these
days. Drs. John A. Ewing and
R. E. Fullilove psychiatrists of
the University of North Carolina
School of Medicine, urged phy
sicians not to use meprobamate
for any length of time in pa
tients addicted either to alcohol
or drugs.
"It appears that this drug may
quite easily become a substitute
for alcohol or barbiturate intake
and that habituation may oc-
England Journal of Medicine.
Dr. Ewing said he had seen two
patients who said meprobamate
"feels just like taking a drink"
and two others "who had lost
control over the amount they
were consunming."
They were reporting the case
of 32-year-old man who had be
come so habituated to the drug
he required . hospitalization to
cur,". they reported to the New i break the habit.
