AN INQUIRY INTO SOME MECHANICAL FACTORS IN THE PRODUCTION OF LYMPHOCYTOSIS.

摘要: 1. The lymph of the thoracic duct furnishes to blood a larger proportion than is usually supposed lymphocytes in circulation. Gross variations its output such cells must affect very considerably picture. 2. quantity supplied through healthy dog remains practically constant from hour hour, if physiological conditions are not notably changed. Transient change may alter cells, but with disappearance this tends resume previous rate. These facts indicate that tissues producing "set" at rate activity definite individual. 3. Muscular (struggle) produces prompt increase duct. ( ) This assured by presence an increased number per cubic millimeter lymph, combined amount voided. ( b lymphocyte-output be tripled or quadrupled during long-continued struggle. ( c Following prolonged struggle for short time less exertion. 4. lymph-flow caused lymphagogue second class (glucose) brings it individual millimeters often poor rapid lymph-flow, yet total elements transported large. ( results glucose support theory Ehrlich, rapidly appearing lymphocytosis produced flushing effect lymph-flow. 5. A comparison effects those demonstrates former some factor besides se (Ehrlich) works cause large lymphocytes. nature has been determined. 6. muscular exertion and coursing so pronounced as suggest circulation influenced them. Clinical findings other observers true; clinical themselves become much simpler interpretation. 7. general prove existence, reserved circulation, fund lymphocytes, which quickly yielded under certain conditions.
