The degenerating nerves are in the dorsal columns of the spinal cord (the portion closest to the back of the body) and carry information that help maintain a person’s sense of position. Tabes dorsalis is the result of an untreated syphilis infection. Symptoms may not appear for some decades after the initial infection and include weakness, diminished reflexes, unsteady gait, progressive degeneration of the joints, loss of coordination, episodes of intense pain and disturbed sensation, personality changes, dementia, deafness, visual impairment, and impaired response to light. The disease is more frequent in males than in females. Onset is commonly during mid-life. The incidence of tabes dorsalis is rising, in part due to co-associated HIV infection.

    Extractions: (a) Purpose. In the assessment and evaluation of the toxic characteristics of organophosphorus substances the determination of subchronic delayed neurotoxicity may be carried out, usually after initial information on delayed neurotoxicity has been obtained by acute testing or by the demonstration of inhibition and aging of neurotoxic esterase in hen neural tissue. The subchronic delayed neurotoxicity test provides information on possible health hazards likely to arise from repeated exposures over a limited period of time. It will provide information on dose response and can provide an estimate of a non-effect level which can be of use for establishing safety criteria for exposure. (b) Definitions. Subchronic delayed neurotoxicity is a prolonged, delayed-onset locomoter ataxia resulting from repeated daily administration of the test substance. (c) Principle of the test method. Multiple dose levels of the test substance are administered orally to domestic hens (Gallus gallus domesticus) for 90 days. The animals are observed at least daily for behavioral abnormalities, locomotor ataxia and paralysis. Histopathological examination of selected neural tissues is undertaken at the termination of the test period.

    Extractions: CHAPTER VIII OCCURRENCE OF NEUROPSYCHIATRIC DISEASES IN THE ARMY The reports received in the Office of the Surgeon General concerning the occurrence of neuropsychiatric diseases in the Army were of two entirely distinct classes. The first was the report card of sick and wounded (Form 52, Medical Department) which is forwarded for every officer or soldier admitted to sick report. In the second group were the special reports, required by the division of neuropsychiatry, which will be referred to at greater length in the following chapter. The statistics compiled from the report cards of sick and wounded for all diseases are given in full in Volume XV, Part II, Medical and Casualty Statistics. From these statistics certain facts pertaining to the occurrence of neuropsychiatric diseases are recorded in Tables 1, 2, 3, and 4 below. In Tables 1 and 2 every admission to sick report is considered. The only possible duplication would be that an individual may have been admitted more than once with the same diagnosis. This did not occur in any great number of instances, and the fact that it did occur among all the classes tabulated would tend to equalize the percentage of occurrence for purposes of comparison. Table 2 shows for the following conditions a relatively higher degree of incidence among officers than enlisted men: Encephalitis, locomotor ataxia, apoplexy, neurasthenia, "shell-shock," neuritis, general paralysis of the insane, psychasthenia, psychoneurosis, and manic-depressive psychosis. The inclusion in this group of many of those indefinite functional disorders which usually are placed under the general term of psychoneuroses is of special interest. On the other hand, certain conditions occur much more frequently among the enlisted personnel. The marked preponderance in this respect of epilepsy, enuresis, constitutional psychopathic states, mental deficiency, and dementia præcox is striking.

    Extractions: INTRODUCTION Influences That Lead to Nervous Diseases A. DISEASES OF THE SPINAL CORD I. LOCOMOTOR ATAXIA (Posterior Spinal Sclerosis) This disease is characterized by disturbances of sensations and incoordinations of the muscular system. Nutritive changes are also in evidence. There is also found degeneration of the root fibers of the dorsal columns of the cord. The disease means hardening of the posterior columns of the spinal cord. This hardening is on the order of arteriosclerosis. It is really a changing, so to speak, of the spinal corda premature aging of the nervous system. The symptoms all point to more or less degeneration of the brain, especially that part related to the cord. Etiology. The latter disease is one of a general giving down of the entire nervous system. The patients of the former may be brought back to very good health if they are willing to follow a rigid regimen for life. Men of no self-control will find the cards stacked against them at every turn, with either of these so-called diseases. The straight and narrow path is the only road to travel. The ataxia subject can do much for himselfnot by drugging not by any curing scheme

    Extractions: eorge Meredith was born on February 12, 1828 . His first home was in Portsmouth, where his father was a tailor. When George was only five years old, his mother died. His childhood after her death was not happy. His father, Augustus Meredith, had inherited a failing business and heavy debts from his own father. In 1837, Augustus was forced to declare himself bankrupt. He went to London to earn a living, and George was sent to stay with relatives in the country and eventually to boarding school. In 1841, partly to protect George's small inheritance, Augustus made him a ward in Chancery. In 1842, when George Meredith was 15, he attended the Moravian school at Neuwied on the Rhine. Although he was there for less than two years, Meredith was to refer to this period as the only real education he had. The school stimulated his intellect and taught him to respect rationality, self-respect, sincerity and courage. The time spent there also left him with a love of German music, poetry and the German countryside. It marked the end of his formal schooling. Although George Meredith was apprenticed to a solicitor, Richard Stephen Charnock, there is no evidence that Meredith studied law or did any work towards entering the legal profession. Instead, with the encouragement of Charnock and his literary friends, Meredith began to write poetry and helped organize a monthly manuscript magazine.
