Extract

For the past three years at Claybury every case of general paralysis treated by malaria has received a course of injections of arsenic (sulfarsenol) concurrently with the routine course of quinine. During twelve months of this period the majority of cases were given, in addition, (a) a course of iodide and mercury by mouth, and (b) a course of intravenous injections of tryparsamide.
