D., Philadelphia. {Continued from page 421.) Among Indian Cialis Generic the toxic forms of sleeplessness, that due to alcohol figures prominently, though its incidence varies considerably in accordance with ilie amount taken, Indian Cialis Generic the extent of habituation, and other factors. While a "reflex" stimulating action of alcohol on the nervous centres is well recognized, careful studies of its effects on the higher brain functions have led to tiie conclusion that most of tiie apparent stimulation produced in the cerebral s])licre is not due to direct excitation but to a de- pression of the centres concerned with selfcontrol and the maintenance of a conventionally correct behavior. Our knowledge of the actions of alcohol on the circulation, however, is such as to suggest strongly a marked influence on their part in the production of sleeplessness. Apart from the use of suUicient alcohol to bring on pronounced drunken depression, this agent so alters Indian Cialis Generic blood distribution, as a rule, that more blood is contained in the arteries and surface vessels, but less in the ex- tensive venous system of the splanchnic area. The mean aortic pressure is, in general, slightly raised, Indian Cialis Generic the amplitude and force of the pulse increased (Sollmann), and the blood flow as a whole im- proved. Frequently the pulse rate is increased, reflexly or otherwise, and this increase, with the activation of the peripheral circulation in general. is Indian Cialis Generic apt to persist for several hours. As regards the cerebral circulation, Hirschfelder, 1915, observed dilatation of the vessels of the pia under alcohol, and a dilator eft'ect was also noticed by Berezin, tyi6. Thus the acute circulatory elTects of alcohol, in an intermediate dosage, plainly seem calculated to hinder sleep induction. In so called moderate drinkers, ingesting alcoholic beverages daily but not to the extent of marked drunkenness, the sleep antagonizing eiTect is noticed especially where the amount of alcohol taken has been somewhat larger than usual. Another, more Indian Cialis Generic serious, form of alcoholic in- somnia is that resulting from prolonged Indian Cialis Generic heavy drinking and associated with delirium. While these and other cerebral manifestations of alcoholism arc- undoubtedly to be ascribed in part to direct injury of nervous tissue by the alcohol, there are some indications that effects of the poison on the bloodvessels may likewise be concerned. Degener- ative changes Indian Cialis Generic in the vessel walls, with loss of elasticity and a tendency to rupture, are generally held an important result of chronic alcoholism. Not only are petechial hemorrhages in the gastric mucous membrane found after delirium tremens, and been ascribed by E. F. Hirsch, 1916, to direct toxic action on tlie vessels, but ecchymoses in the skin constitute also a tyjiical result of alcoholic poisoning. .Short of actual vascular Indian Cialis Generic rupture, a ucai^ening or paralysis 01 the brain arterioles as a result ot the reix-ated action of alcohol has been considered by many, including Sir James Sawyer, 1912, a factor in alcoholic delirium, sleepless cere- bral activity being held Indian Cialis Generic a natural result of the
