Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rayless Goldenrod (Aplopappus Heterophyllus) As a Poisonous Plant
The heart was generally found in diastole. There was ordinarily more or less congestion in' the fourth stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, and rectum. This congestion in some cases was slight, and sometimes was only in spots, but was always present to a greater or less degree. The spleen was usually more or less congested, and the pancreas showed an abnormal quantity of blood in a number of cases. The liver Was generally pale. The bile was usually thick, dark, and viscid, and-the gall bladder was distended. The kidneys were congested in same cases, but ordinarily presented no abnormal appearance except that which would be expected from hypostasis.
The brain was congested in six cases, and in four the blood ves sels of the Spinal canal were unusually full. It could not be said, however, that this condition of the brain and spinal cord was a general occurrence.
