EXPERIMENTS WITH SUBJECTS SUFFERING: FROM CONSTITUTIONAL DISEASES. In Table 18 are included 87 experiments with men, 9 with women, and1 with a child, in which the subjects were suffering from rheumatism,gout, diabetes, or scurvy. In some of the experiments the effect ofdrugs, in others the effect of a special diet, was tested. These and otherspecial questions are noted in the text accompanying the table. Someof the experiments with diabetic subjects have been made to study thegeneral laws of nutrition. All the experiments with diabetic subjectsin which the balance of income and outgo of carbon was determined inaddition to nitrogen will be found in Table 26. 216 A DIGEST OF METABOLISM ?S809J III OH CO CM tBrH Ol CN rt r-i •a nun uj 00 C5 OC3 l> 00 •pooj ui i-i co m oi oo ^ o^osco in c^i co ^j! r-5 ?4 so •uoiibjiiq; im in CD o -B o M Si co fat:- HlliP bees*rj^a co cs ,r* co 02 U Q- i-lB t^-O _3 CD •e§Y •uota CI OS OS O Ol C5 •joqixniu i^i-iag O i-l cm -ii in— •_: oc co t~ CO 05 to O CO00 00 CO CONSTITUTIONAL DISEASES. 217
