On one side, we have the evidence from exhaustive work done by McCarrison, in 1911, to show the feeding of fecal extracts and fecal residues to rats produced thyroid changes, loosely classed as “goitre”, in 100% of the animals. So closely to the symptoms of acute tuberculosis and acute toxic goitre resemble each other in the first stages that it has been definitively established by Goetsch, in the 1919, and Otis, in 1920, that the thyroid hypersecretion is involved in both. 000000181 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000181 650__ $$aThyroid Gland$$027068 000000181 650__ $$aFeces$$018925 000000181 650__ $$aEndotoxins$$018443 000000181 650__ $$aGoiter$$019675 000000181 650__ $$aTuberculosis$$027470 000000181 650__ $$aRats$$036844 000000181 650__ $$aModels, Animal$$033025 000000181 691__ $$aUO Medical School$$041362 000000181 692__ $$aDepartment of Physiology 000000181 7001_ $$aJones, Lester T.$$uUniversity of Oregon$$041359 000000181 8564_ $$9e04434fa-fe71-446f-a8d4-6f923babdfc5$$s1190528$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/181/files/181_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$2aa12a7f40084f7ff4fcdce7f2b155b36$$31 000000181 905__ $$a/rest/prod/t4/35/gc/97/t435gc97w 000000181 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:181$$pstudent-work 000000181 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
