Extract

Early Work.

About twelve years ago, apart from mental work, I had occasion to use insulin to some considerable extent for the treatment of diabetes and the preparation of diabetic cases for operation, and acquaintance was thus made with hypoglycæmic shock. Most of us have had that experience. Insulin has been tried more recently in a large field, being used as a remedy in conditions of all sorts, even as a dressing for septic ulcers. But the writer's scope has been more confined, the extent being limited to mental cases.
