In such a uterus the building of thehyperplastic layer is an endeavor on the inut of the artery to reduceits caliber to the demands made upon it. just as Thoma found in thevessels of the n(wl)orn. Work certainly seems to prove that bothJores and Thoma are right in their theories, and that lowered bloodpressure and .slowing of the blood stream on the one hand, as well ashigh blood pressure and increased work on the other, can call forth thesame Fig. 13.—Ob.
