Extract

The employment of malaria as a therapeutic agent in the treatment of general paralysis has focused attention on the latter disease and has provided much material for thought. A discussion on the prognosis and treatment of general paralysis was sponsored by the Association at the quarterly meetings in November, 1928, and February, 1929. The Sections of Psychiatry and Neurology of the Royal Society of Medicine had a similar discussion at the same time, and quite recently the Neurological Section of the Royal Society of Medicine debated the unsettled problems of neuro-syphilis, when the President, in summing up, remarked, “Our problems still remain unsettled”.
