Página 84 - I may trust my own experience, the metastasis of gout more frequently takes place to the head than to any other part.

Under this compression, I believe that the vessels give way, and...
Página 101 - If we cannot affirm that urea, the lithic acid, or other animal compounds circulating in the blood, give cause to the phenomena of gout, under the most cautious reasoning we are at least entitled to assume, with some confidence, that these matters secreted from the kidneys are the equivalents to gouty matter present in the system — that they have certain proportion of quantity to each other — and that upon their balance depend all the essential characters of the disease...
