Action of Atropin and Eserin on Adrenalin Secretion Caused by KGI and CaCL

Abstract

Quick;3 there is still controversy as to results obtained by its use in thyrotoxicosis.C o ? t d~~i o i l s . Increased thyroid activity is accompanied by decrease in the amount of the blood amylase, and vice versa. There is a pronounced fall in the level of blood amylase within 8 hours following thyroid,ectoniy in thyrotosic patients ; this does not occur after operations for non-tosic goiter. The return of blood amylase to normal values following thyroidectomy lags behind the improvement in clinical status and the restoration of basal metabolism to normal level. These events are considered to be evidence of impaired liver function in thyrotosicosis.
