Catarrhal

hearing has submitted
to months of treatment, per
haps to operation, and finally
has settled down to get what
comfort possible by wearing
some form of hearing aid,
and then hears of some fur
ther method of restoring
hearing, he may do one of
two things—(a) grasp for it
as a drowning man will grasp
for a straw, or (b) make up
his mind that no method can
help him in his present con
dition.
I believe, therefore, that I should
again record the results obtained by
Dr. F. W. O’Brien,
Boston, as recorded
in the magazine, Ra
diology.
Dr. O’Brien re
ports that from 1S29
to 1935 he treated
140 patients with ca
tarrhal deafness and
head noises by the
_____ _
X-ray. Of this num-
^
ber 73 were helped,
1
65 were not Im
Dr. Barton proved, and 2 were
made worse.
Of the improved group 67 had nine
treatments to each ear, and six re
ceived only eight treatments; nine
treatments was considered the cor
rect number to give. The expo
sures to the X-rays lasted five min
utes and were given once a week
for nine weeks.
Really Were Cured.
No patient had been followed less
than a year, the majority for more
than three years, and some as long
as five years. The part of the head
put under the X-ray extended from
the top of the nose to the lower tip
of the bone behind the ear. This
means that the whole hearing struc
ture—nose, throat (with little tube
carrying air up to inner side of ear
drum), the spongy tissue behind the
ear, the middle ear containing the
little bones running from drum to
the hearing nerve, and the hearing
nerve itself—were all put under the
direct effects of the X-rays.
Dr. O'Brien makes no attempt to
explain how the X-ray treatments
bring about Improvement in cases
of chronic or old cases of catarrhal
deafness.
The points to remember are "that
all these cases were due to a catarrh
al condition, all of them were old
cases, and all those that had been
Improved had been followed for
from one to seven years after the
X-ray treatments had been given,
so the cures were really cures.

Dry Diet Epllcsy.
During the search for the cause of
epilepsy (a search that is still going
on), one research worker starved
ten epileptics for a number of days,
during which time not one of them
had an attack. As some of them
were accustomed to having a num
ber of attacks every day, it was
thus definitely proven that foods had
something to do with causing the at
tacks of epilepsy.
Other research workers then
found that by cutting down on the
starch foods and increasing the fat
foods the attacks could be prevented
or were less severe.
That too much water in the body,
especially in the brain and the
spinal cord, was a factor in causing
epileptic attacks, was later dem
onstrated.
The result today Is that in a large
number of cases a special diet
which cuts down on the water and
starch foods and increases the fats,
enables the patient to keep free of
attacks. There ore, of course, a
great number who in addition to fol
lowing this special diet must also
use a tablet or phénobarbital or
luminal daily.
It would seem that Just as tiabetes
is caused by a lack of insulin in the
pancreas, so epilepsy is caused by
a lack of something from some
gland or organ in the body. And
Just at diabetes can be controlled
by the addition of extra insulin
daily, so can epilepsy be controlled I
by increasing the fats and cutting
down on liquids and starch foods.
