Acute and chronic anaemia from hemorrhage, pernicious ance-mia, leukannia, and the local ana-mia caused by sclerosis of vessels, embolism,or thrombosis, are important in this connection. The conditions at the back of fatty degeneration appear to be impaired vital-ity of the cells, together with changes in the nutrition. The chief factor is be-lieved to be deficient oxygenation of the cells. This results in the cell protoplasmbeing broken down partly into fat and ])artly into nitrogenous substances whichare excreted by the urine. Dimini.^^hed oxygenation may be ]:)roduced by a deficiency in the quantity ofblood supplied to a part or by defective quality. By some, the albuminous andfatty changes so often found in febrile affections are regarded as due to the func-tional increase necessarv to the production cf the
