In der chinesischen Medizin wird sie oft eingesetzt, z.B. in der Geburtshilfe. Eine starke Tinktur aus den Blüten zum auslösen der Wehen.

 

We have many of them in our garden.

 

It is often used in Chinese medicine, e.g. in obstetrics. A strong tincture made from the flowers to induce labor.

This photo of an opened oviduct with an ectopic pregnancy features a spectacularly well preserved 10-millimeter embryo. It is uncommon to see any embryo at all in an ectopic, and for one to be this well preserved (and undisturbed by the prosector's knife) is quite unusual.

 

Even an embryo this tiny shows very distinct anatomic features, including tail, limb buds, heart (which actually protrudes from the chest), eye cups, cornea/lens, brain, and prominent segmentation into somites. The gestational sac is surrounded by a myriad of chorionic villi resembling elongate party balloons. This embryo is about five weeks old (or seven weeks in the biologically misleading but eminently practical dating system used in obstetrics).

 

The photo was taken on Kodak Elite 200 slide film, with a Minolta X-370 camera and 100mm f/4 Rokkor bellows lens at near-full extension. The formalin-fixed specimen was immersed in tapwater and pinned to a tray lined with black velvet. The exposure was 1/4 second at f/8.

  

This image found its way to Wikipedia and on 29 Nov 2006 was promoted to the status of Featured Picture. It was Wikipedia's Picture of the Day for March 21, 2007.

 

More recently, I added an image of a nine-week embryo to my Photostream. What a difference two weeks makes!

 

Going backwards in time, I have an image of a 4- to 5-week embryo, which I also found in a tubal pregnancy.

As remembered by

Michael Ratliff Lutz

 

Introduction:

When I began researching my family’s history in Redwood City, California in the year 2004 I was certain that I would be able to find a lot of information about my uncle, Ralph H. Ratliff since his death in March of 1963 was front-page news in The Redwood City Tribune. To my surprise, he was nearly a forgotten man. The local historical societies only had a couple of old newspaper clippings. I only had the clippings and photos that my mother, Nina Mardel Ratliff (Lutz) (Womer), had saved in her scrapbook over the years to work with. With the help of a few relatives I have been able to reconstruct the story of Ralph Ratliff and his Peninsula Ambulance Service.

 

Ratliff Enterprises as described in a 1961 Redwood City Tribune article:

 

Twelve women in three shifts work around the clock with their fingers virtually on the pulse of a vast segment of professional and business life. These women answer a monthly average of 38,000 telephone calls.

They are employees of Ratliff Enterprises, Inc a family owner corporation occupying its own two-story building at 1260 Marshall Street. Ratliff Enterprises operates the Redwood City Telephone Answering Service, which embraces the Sequoia District Physicians Exchange. It also operates the Peninsula Ambulance Service and the Peninsula Hospital Rental Service. Its ambulances respond to 500 calls monthly. The County of San Mateo subsidizes peninsula Ambulance Service.

 

Its rental service rents out anything needed for the care of patients in the home…such things as oxygen, refrigerated tents, wheel chairs, therapy lamps, traction equipment and beds.

 

The officers of the corporation are Ralph H. Ratliff, president: his wife Irene I. Ratliff: vice president their two sons and a daughter, K. Harold Ratliff and Ralph J. Ratliff, and Mrs. Virginia Collins, directors. Mrs. Ratliff manages the answering service with Mrs. Collins as the assistant manager. Harold is the manager and bookkeeper of the ambulance and rental divisions.

 

Mateo County uses a subsidy system with Peninsula Ambulance Service so they could discontinue their own emergency ambulance service. If the company couldn’t collect from individuals, the county would reimburse them $20 per call for all service ordered through police systems. Most calls came through the Sheriffs Office.

 

In 1960 Peninsula Ambulance received a subsidy of $18,000, a considerable savings compared to what it would have cost to operate their own system. Ambulance employees were taught advanced Red Cross first aide, basic obstetrics and oxygen therapy.

 

As to obstetrics, Ralph Ratliff personally delivered 10 babies while working shifts with his ambulance crews, three of these births occurred in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. It just happened that 10 mothers waited until the very last minute. Unlike in the storybooks, none of the babies were named after him.

 

The ambulance fees are $25 per call plus supplies used at the accident scene like splints and oxygen, and $12.50 if a second patient on a stretcher was involved. A third person with minor injuries could ride with the driver for free.

 

I was able to find reports of two of those baby deliveries in the San Mateo Times archives, one in La Honda on July 14, 1949, and another in the back of the ambulance on August 21 1957. It is true that neither baby was named Ralph after my uncle, but then again, they were both girls.

Oops, I nearly missed the boy he delivered on July 2, 1954. He wasn’t named Ralph either.

 

Recent generations probably don’t realize that emergency medical service used to be provided by private ambulance companies. Until the late 1970s when EMTs were stationed in firehouses, private ambulance services like Peninsula Ambulance Service and Harold Ratliff’s California Ambulance Service would respond to medical emergencies. Ambulance personnel received advanced first aide training from the American Red Cross. In fact, Ralph Ratliff was a first aide instructor for the Red Cross for several years. The classes were taught at the Sequoia Chapter of the American Red Cross, 3540 Middlefield Road in Menlo Park. There were six, two-hour sessions taught in the evening, ending in a Red Cross certificate for those who passed the course.

 

I’m probably not the best person to tell the story of Peninsula Ambulance since my contact with this part of my family was rather inconsistent over the years. My mother was half owner of Home Creek Resort at Huntington lake in Fresno County so except for two years in 1951 and 1952 when we wintered over with Ralph Ratliff’s family in Redwood City, my contact was limited to a couple of weeks on vacation every year. In my senior high school year, 1962-63 we moved to Redwood City, but that was just a few months before my uncle died. There was a time when you couldn’t go anywhere in Redwood City without bumping into a member of the Ratliff family, but now it seems I’m the only one left. Fortunately, my mother saved numerous newspaper articles and photographs that should be helpful.

 

Ralph H. Ratliff was born in Tallula, Illinois on November 05, 1903 to George O. and Carrie Ratliff of Jacksonville, Illinois. The family, including his older brother Frank Jerry Ratliff, and younger sister and my mother, Nina Mardel Ratliff later moved to Los Angeles then to San Francisco in the 1920s. My grandfather, George O. Ratliff was in the real estate business but Ralph found working on cars more to his liking, so for several years he worked as an auto mechanic in San Francisco.

 

Prior to leaving Los Angeles, Ralph had a brief marriage to Mildred Hensley, and a son Ralph H. Ratliff Jr., born October 14, 1922. Ralph Jr. moved to San Francisco with the rest of the family and was cared for by my mother and grandmother until Ralph married Irene I. Haseltine of Redwood City in Palo Alto, California on May 8, 1925. Their first son, Kenneth “Harold” Ratliff was born November 04, 1925. They had two additional children, Ralph Junior Ratliff, born January 25, 1927 and Virginia Lois Ratliff, born May 21, 1928.

 

Irene Haseltine was a Redwood City girl, her emigrated to Redwood City from Wisconsin in the early 1900s. Ralph and Irene Ratliff continued to live in San Francisco until 1939 when, with financial assistance from his father George Ratliff, he opened the Peninsula Garage in Redwood City.

 

The first location of the Peninsula Garage was near Bayshore Highway, near Main and Bradford today. This section of Bayshore is now Veteran’s Blvd. The location near the highway made it easier for both the towing business and the ambulance business to respond quickly. When they moved to 432 Middlefield Rd. they were about the same distance from the highway as they were at Main and Bradford. There were no freeways then. The highways all had stoplights at major intersections. Bayshore Highway had only two lanes in each direction with no center divider. There were very few buildings along old Bayshore but there were a lot of billboards

 

Towing was a large part of the Peninsula Garage business. It was the towing business that got Ralph Ratliff started in the ambulance business. Ralph’s tow trucks were arriving at auto accident scenes long before the ambulance arrived. In 1944, Mickey Collins, then chief of police, asked my uncle to provide the community with some kind of ambulance service. Ralph purchased a used ambulance from a taxicab company, took first aide classes, and went into business. It’s not clear why a taxi company had an ambulance.

 

At first the Peninsula Garage and Peninsula Ambulance coexisted at the same address at 450 Main St., Redwood City. They also shared the same phone number for a while which probably caused some confusion, but there is no record of a tow truck responding to an ambulance call.

 

During the early 1940s the Ratliff family lived on Oxford Street in Redwood City. Oxford Street was pretty much out in the country then. There were very few other houses around. Later they moved to a large white house at 432 Middlefield Rd. near the corner of old Bayshore Highway. That location is now a county parking lot. That house also served as the base for the ambulance service.

 

This article about my cousin Harold Ratliff’s wedding reception pretty much sums up the Ratliff family in Redwood City during World War 2. My mother was living with the Ratliff’s on Oxford Street then. My father was away in the army and I was just born a month before or so before the article was written so it was easier for her to live with relatives. I was at this reception but don’t remember much.

 

Ironically, I was born in San Francisco. My family was from San Francisco but by 1944 my grand parents had moved to Burlingame and my mother was living in Redwood City. They all decided to go to a fireworks display at Kezar stadium in 1944, and that’s when and where I was born.

 

Redwood City Tribune, August 1944:

A large wedding party and reception was held in honor of newly wedded Mr. and Mrs. Harold Kenneth Ratliff, the former Miss Virginia Alberta French of San Francisco, at the home of the groom’s grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Alva Haseltine of 479 Sequoia Ave. last week.

Because of Harold’s short leave from the navy, in which he is a seaman second class, the couple was married in Reno on Aug. 23. They met several years ago when Virginia visited her aunt, Mrs. Tom Kelly of Redwood City.

 

For her wedding the bride chose the navy colors of navy blue and white. She wore a navy blue suit with white accessories and a gardenia corsage.

 

Harold is the son of Mr. and Mrs. R.H. Ratliff of 1474 Oxford St. He is the brother of Ralph and Virginia Ratliff who attend Sequoia High School and Ralph Harold Ratliff Jr. who is now in the U.S. Army at Camp Haan. Harold also attended Sequoia High School.

 

At the reception the table was decorated in blue and white centered with a tiered wedding cake topped with a miniature sailor and his bride. Many gifts were received by the newlyweds.

 

Attending the reception were Mr. and Mrs. George Ratliff, grandparents of the groom, Mrs. Nina Mardel Lutz, aunt, and son Michael Lutz; Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Keyser, aunt and uncle, and cousins, Bonnie, Phillip and Jimmie Keyser; Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Haseltine, aunt and uncle, and Neal and Dale Haseltine; Mrs. Jasper Haseltine, aunt, and Joanne and Freddie Haseltine, and Sgt. and Mrs. Herbert England, cousins, and daughter, Sharon Lee.

 

Also attending were Sgt. and Mrs. John Whittington, Mr. and Mrs. Tony Alvis and sons, Mr. Norman Peterson and Kenneth Peterson, USN.

 

Unable to attend were Mr. Jasper Haseltine, uncle, who is now overseas with the merchant marine, Sgt. Eddie Thoemke of the U.S. Army, and Mrs. Thoemke, uncle and aunt; and Sgt. Richard Lutz, uncle, who is currently stationed in Roswell, New Mexico.

 

This is my cousin Virginia (Ginny) Ratliff behind their home at 1474 Oxford St in Redwood City about in the late 1940s. That area behind her would be covered with houses by 1950.

Unfortunately, Harold Ratliff’s Marriage to Virginia French only lasted a couple of years. He later married Carol Sufczynski Dierks of Redwood City on March 26,1949.

 

Around 1948 the Ratliff family and the business moved to a new location at 432 Middlefield Road, now a parking lot for the San Mateo County Offices. The garage was sold and they purchased an answering service, Sequoia District Physicians Exchange.

 

Both the businesses and the family occupied the same large house. The answering service occupied what was a large living room. Fortunately the house must have had two living rooms, because there was another room of equal size with a connecting door. The upstairs served as quarters for the ambulance crews.

 

There was enough room in the house to accommodate my mother and me the winters of 1951 and 1952 during the off-season for my mother’s business, Home Creek Resort at Huntington Lake, CA. From November to March we lived in Redwood City. I attended Monroe School, and mom worked shifts at the answering service.

 

On October 08, 1949 my uncle Ralph was nearly killed in a three-car pile up on old Pacheco Pass. He was on his way to Home Creek Resort at Huntington Lake in Fresno County. The resort was co-owned by my mother, and uncle Frank “Jerry” Ratliff. Every fall the family gathered at the resort during deer season. I can remember my uncle in what was nearly a full body cast lying in a hospital bed in the living room of that house on Middlefield.

 

Getting to Monroe School was an easy walk then because Bradford connected Middlefield Rd. and Allerton St. Ralph Junior Ratliff and his family lived at 730 Allerton diagonally across from Monroe School so they were available to point me in the right direction when I got lost my first day. In one of those little coincidences that happen now and then, my cousin’s landlady at 730 Allerton was Mrs. Mary Tesolin, the mother of Carmen Tesolin, my future wife, though I didn’t actually meet her until 1963. In 1955, my cousin Ralph Junior Ratliff and family lived in the old carriage house on property at 726-730 Allerton Street. It sat next to an old farmhouse also owned by Mary “Sironi” Tesolin, Carmen’s mother.

 

Both of Ralph Ratliff’s sons worked shifts for the ambulance service as well as working other jobs, so Ralph Jr. and Harold were always descending the stairs to raid the refrigerator. One of Harold’s sons, Kenny, also lived there. Ralph and Irene Ratliff assumed the responsibility of caring for Kenneth Ratliff after Harold’s divorce from his first wife Virginia. They continued to care for Kenny until he joined the Navy in 1965.

 

Kenny and I slept in the glassed in front porch of the house. I remember it being quite cold, especially since my aunt Irene insisted on an open window, even in mid winter. Something about the health benefits of fresh air. It was also noisy. The police radio was always on in the living room for some reason. I didn’t understand why the radio wasn’t upstairs with the ambulance guys. The house was also very close to Bayshore Highway, and there was a stop light at Middlefield and Bayshore. Trucks that stopped at the light had to rev up their engines to get moving again. On the other side were the trains. The tracks were, a few blocks away, but the trains ran all night. I don’t think I got a lotta sleep.

 

In the late 1950s Harold and Ralph Junior Ratliff purchased the Flying “A” service station at the corner of Middlefield and Bayshore. Ralph Sr. helped with the financing.

 

In 1959 Ralph Junior Ratliff left the business and eventually moved his family to Oregon leaving Harold Ratliff the sole owner of the business.

 

In the late 1950s the County of San Mateo decided it needed the block that housed both Peninsula Ambulance Service and Ratliff’s Flying “A” so the Ambulance Business moved to a new location, and built a new building at 1260 Marshall St., and Harold Ratliff rejoined the Ambulance Company. The building on Marshall is still there and currently occupied by Aloha Flowers (2005).

 

Before the Kaiser Medical Center was completed in 1968 we used to set off 4th of July fireworks in front of the Ambulance Service. Kaiser was virtually built in our front yard. During the 1960s while Kaiser was being built my entire family worked at 1260 Marshall. My uncle ran the businesses, my cousins drove ambulances, and my mother ran the medical supply for a while. My aunt ran Sequoia Physicians & Surgeons Exchange in the same building. I even worked there when I was in high school in 1963.

 

After I was discharged from the U.S. Navy in 1967 I used the skills that I learned as a hospital corpsman to moonlight for various ambulance services while I was attending San Francisco State University. The skills required by civilian ambulance employees were nearly identical to those skills used by a field medic (corpsman) with the U.S. Marines. I worked in the operating room at the old Oak Knoll Naval Hospital in Oakland, California. That made it possible for me to moonlight some nights and weekends for Bob’s Ambulance Service in Oakland while still on active duty.

 

Often, history is what is going on in the background of a photograph so the following photographs not only show some vintage Peninsula Ambulances from the 1940s and 50s, but also shows a large facility that belonged to the Mobil Oil Company. The Mobil facility was directly across Middlefield from both Peninsula Ambulance and the Flying “A” station. You can also see a tower appears close but was actually several blocks away at Frank’s Tannery. Just across the Highway from the Flying “A” was the Redwood City Rodeo Grounds. That’s about where the Department of Motor Vehicles is located now.

 

In 1961 Ralph Ratliff was voted president of the California Ambulance Association. On September 6th of that same year the San Mateo Times reported that my uncle and a California Highway Patrol Officer named Fred Hagen climbed down a 400-foot cliff on Tunitas Road to rescue a 16-year-old boy who was thrown from a Jeep when it hit a tree. My uncle was 57 years old at the time and had several younger drivers on his payroll, but he enjoyed the work so much that he was still taking regular turns behind the wheel of the ambulance.

People forget that before Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and specialized rescue vehicles, ambulance services did it all. Peninsula Ambulance Service covered most of San Mateo County, from delivering a baby in La Honda to rescuing a teenager coastside. I remember hearing my uncle’s voice on the ambulance radio informing the hospital that he was coming in from Half Moon Bay with one up and two down. That meant that he had two patients on gurneys and one on a hammock like device used only in extreme emergencies.

 

In most cases there were no freeways, so when an ambulance was coming in from coastside, it was traveling narrow twisting roads often in the fog. Some of those roads are still no fun to drive today.

 

The old Five Points Hotel at 2015 El Camino Real was the location of frequent calls. There was always trouble and ambulance calls to that location were always seen as dangerous. My uncle used to always complain about employees being injured on calls to the hotel. Some of the legendary danger may have been exaggerated, but the Redwood City Police closed down the hotel in the early 1950s.

 

My uncle was credited with saving the life of a man whose throat had been cut in a knife fight in the “five points area” on January 17, 1955. Somehow he managed keep the man from bleeding to death from a severed jugular vein on the way to the hospital, this according to the San Mateo Times.

 

It wasn’t always people who were rescued. When a 16 year old boy hit a dog with his motor scooter in 1957, he not only delivered the boy with a broken leg to the hospital, but he also delivered the dog to a vet.

 

That same year Uncle Ralph had to descend on a sling from a crane into a concrete vat to rescue a worker with a fractured spine. The worker was a welder working on a Bayshore Freeway overpass when he leaned too far into the vat.

 

On May 17, 1962 Ralph Ratliff represented Redwood City at the annual hearing conducted by the California State Chamber of Commerce. The Issues were the completion of the Five Points Overpass, the Junipero Serra Freeway (280), the Skyline Freeway and the Bayfront Freeway (101). There was also resolution offered by the City of Half Moon Bay seeking to continue the so-called San Bruno Freeway (380) to Half Moon Bay.

 

I’m not sure where my uncle stood on the last issue. This was just a couple of years after the City of Pacifica was formed to keep from being annexed by San Bruno, and a couple of years before Pacifica tried to annex all of the communities of the coastside down to Princeton By the Sea. Development was popular then. There was even a plan to make Montara into another Linda Mar.

 

Unfortunately, his election to the new post came shortly before he was diagnosed with cancer. His death in March 1963 was front-page news in the Times Tribune on March 18, 1963:

 

Ralph H. Ratliff, whose Peninsula Ambulance Service has provided Redwood City’s emergency transportation for 19 years died Saturday afternoon after a long battle with cancer. Mr. Ratliff, 59, came here in 1939 to establish a garage and towing service at the corner of Main Street and Old Bayshore.

In 1944, Mickey Collins, then chief of police, told Mr. Ratliff that the community should be provided with some kind of ambulance service. Mr. Ratliff decided to go into the business. He began with one vehicle and today, with headquarters at 1260 Marshall St., has five.

 

A native of Springfield [actually Tallula], Ill., Mr. Ratliff came to Redwood City from San Francisco. He has been identified with many civic activities throughout the years, notably as the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce Highway and Traffic Committee. It was for this group that he campaigned for the widening of Jefferson Ave. and Woodside Rd., the extension of Edgewood Rd. to Half Moon Bay, and many of the local provisions of the local in the proposed city-county highway bond issue.

 

Mr. Ratliff also was a member of the Redwood City Exchange club, Redwood City Elks lodge, Modern Woodmen of the World and United Commercial Travelers. He was a charter member and past president of the California Ambulance Association, and was awarded a 20-year pin as a first aide instructor by the Red Cross.

 

Mr. Ratliff’s family will continue to run the ambulance firm.

 

Survivors include his widow, Irene, at the family home, 1007 Katherine St.; Sons Ralph J., Menlo Park and Harold K., Redwood City; a daughter; Mrs. Virginia Collins, Los Altos and a son by a previous marriage, Ralph H. Ratliff Jr. of Los Angeles. A Sister, Mrs. Mardel Womer [My mother’s married name with her second husband] resides in Redwood City. There are 15 grandchildren.

 

Private Funeral Services were held at Lyng & Tinney Funeral Home, 717 Jefferson Ave. Mr. Ratliff willed his body to Stanford Medical School for research.

 

The family prefers contributions to the American Cancer Society, 1517 South B St., San Mateo.

 

And in another article on March 25, 1963:

Ralph H. Ratliff, A Valuable Citizen

It was no longer news to his friends when it appeared in Monday’s paper that Ralph H. Ratliff had succumbed. Mr. Ratliff had been stricken with cancer more than a year ago, and hope for survival disappeared long ago but Mr. Ratliff refused to give up.

He knew that there were many jobs to be done, and he was going to do his best to get some results while he was still able to do so.

 

Mr. Ratliff was one of the developers of an excellent ambulance for Peninsulans. He wasn’t merely satisfied to transport to the hospital; he became an expert in first aide and his careful handling of patients was in many cases the difference between life and death.

 

Mr. Ratliff didn’t confine himself to matter involving his own profession. He was civic minded, and in this too he put in his best effort. Hi thorough study of Redwood City’s street and traffic problems, made at the request of the Chamber of Commerce, has been used as a model by both city and county governments in planning for the future.

 

Much of his best work came after he knew that he would never be able to shake the cancer that was spreading through his body.

 

This effort and enthusiasm ….the will to keep working for the public’s benefit even while knowing that he would reap none of the benefits…made Ralph H. Ratliff one of Redwood City’s most valuable citizens.

 

The entire community shares with his family this deep loss.

 

The family tried to continue the business together, but as often happens in these situations, there was disagreement about how the business should be run, so Harold Ratliff established a competing service, California Ambulance.

 

Harold Ratliff in the California Ambulance Office about 1970

 

California Ambulance Service was moderately successful but the move by San Mateo County to station emergency medical responders to fire stations left only non-emergency transport work to private ambulance companies. Eventually, both Peninsula Ambulance Service and California Ambulance Service merged with Mercy Ambulance Service in Daly City to form Mercy-Peninsula Ambulance.

 

Irene Ratliff retired and moved to Oregon to be close to her children. Harold worked at Raychem in Menlo Park until his death on May 06, 1985. He died of a heart attack behind the wheel of his car on El Camino Real.

 

Times Tribune May 08, 1985

Harold Ratliff, 59, Known as “Ratliff the Magician” to scores of Peninsula children and church groups, and a resident of Redwood City for over 40 years, died Monday in Mills Memorial Hospital after a sudden illness. He was a native of San Francisco.

 

He was a Navy veteran of World War II and served in the Pacific. In recent years he worked for Raychem in Menlo Park.

 

As a magician he performed for churches, children’s parties and many organizations.

 

Survivors include his wife Carol, his wife of 37 years; his sons, Kenneth of San Jose and Donald and Robert of Oregon; daughters Donna Knerr of Texas, Sandra Ebaugh of Mountain View and Barbara Ferriera of Florida; brothers Ralph J. of Oregon and Ralph H. of Los Angeles; a sister, Virginia Collins of Pasadena; his mother, Irene Ratliff of Oregon.

 

Private services have been held with internment in Golden Gate National Cemetery at San Bruno under direction of the Redwood Chapel, Redwood City. The family suggests memorial gifts to the American Heart Association.

Museum anatomicum

The Museum anatomicum is a medical-historical museum of the Philipps-University of Marburg a collection of preparations which on the basis of anatomical and obstetrical collections of the 19th century has been established by scientists for teaching and research purposes.

History

Yet Johannes Eichmann (1500-1560) carried out public autopsies at the Alma Mater Philippina, location of the Collegium medicum was the former Franciscan monastery at the Barfüßertor (Discalced gate). After the famous anatomist and naturalist Samuel Thomas Soemmerring (1755-1830) received an appointment to Mainz, in 1786 the Collegium Carolinum was dissolved in Kassel. The related building of the Theatrum anatomicum was rebuilt on the Marburg Ketzerbach near the Elisabeth church. Until the move to a new building at the same location in 1842, the anatomy was placed here.

The founder, the anatomist Christian Heinrich Bünger (1782-1842), brought the foundation of the collection of about 1600 specimens from the disbanded University of Helmstedt to Marburg; from 1812 on, he worked for thirty years until his death as director of the Anatomical Institute. The collection was over time, inter alia, by Franz Ludwig Fick (1813-1858) and Friedrich Matthias Claudius (1822-1869) continually expanded. In 1887 Emil Gasser (1847-1919) followed his teacher Nathanael Lieberkühn (1821-1887) to the chair. The Institute's new building was built in 1902 in the Lower Rosen Street (today Robert-Koch street). In the Second World War the anatomical institute and its exhibits were not destroyed; the collection was partially stored in the following years. Only since 1985/1989 it could be made accessible as a museum in the attic of the pathological institute. It contains more than 3000 exhibits from the time between 1650 and 1920. The preparations from the following years were cremated, since their origins were unclear.

Departments

The museum is divided into five thematically oriented rooms. At the beginning, the technique of wet preparation over time is demonstrated: Human exhibits, made durable with water, wax, various alcohols and resin, illustrate the durability of the different methods. Furthermore, wax and gypsum models of human organs are presented in the entrance area.

One room contains a "racial skull collection" that is intended to demonstrate the phrenological differences between the different ethnic groups; in addition, there are skull masks and skulls of special people, such as criminals who have been craniometrically measured.

The next section shows a collection of animal and human skeletons, which should serve to compare the species. Abnormalities are exemplified here by rickets, fractures or scoliosis deformed human and animal skeletons with malformations such as several limbs.

In the embryological department visitors can view early-stage malformations (spasm bifida, geminations or water heads).

A separate room is devoted to the history of obstetrics, in which the development of obstetric devices is documented. Here is also the "Marburger Lenchen", a whole body preparation of a heavily pregnant woman.

In the corridor of the collection the consequences of diseases on the human body are illustrated; the skull of a syphilitic patient is exhibited here, as is the 2.44-meter-long skeleton of the long Anton, who suffered from a tumor of the pituitary gland. A separate showcase is filled with preparations on the morphology of the inner ear.

Christian Heinrich Bünger as the founder of the extensive collection was dedicated an own room, in which not only hippo skulls but also various human preparations, Büngers dissection set of instruments as well as preserved tattooed skin can be seen. The skull and the heart of Bünger are also part of the anatomical collection, but are not currently exhibited.

 

Museum anatomicum

Das Museum anatomicum ist als medizinhistorisches Museum der Philipps-Universität Marburg eine Präparate-Sammlung, die ausgehend von anatomischen und geburtshilflichen Sammlungen des 19. Jahrhunderts von Wissenschaftlern für Lehr- und Forschungszwecke aufgebaut wurde.

Geschichte

Schon Johannes Eichmann (1500–1560) führte an der Alma Mater Philippina öffentliche Leichenschauen durch, Standort des Collegium medicum war das ehemalige Franziskanerkloster am Barfüßertor. Nachdem der berühmte Anatom und Naturforscher Samuel Thomas Soemmerring (1755–1830) eine Berufung nach Mainz erhielt, wurde 1786 das Collegium Carolinum in Kassel aufgelöst. Das zugehörige Gebäude des Theatrum anatomicum wurde an der Marburger Ketzerbach in der Nähe der Elisabethkirche wieder aufgebaut. Bis zum Umzug in einen Neubau am gleichen Standort im Jahr 1842 war hier die Anatomie untergebracht.

Den Grundstock der Sammlung von ca. 1600 Präparaten brachte ihr Gründer, der Anatom Christian Heinrich Bünger (1782–1842), aus der aufgelösten Universität Helmstedt nach Marburg mit; ab 1812 war er dreißig Jahre lang bis zu seinem Tod als Direktor des Anatomischen Instituts tätig. Die Sammlung wurde im Laufe der Zeit u. a. durch Franz Ludwig Fick (1813–1858) und Friedrich Matthias Claudius (1822–1869) immer weiter ausgebaut. 1887 folgte Emil Gasser (1847–1919) seinem Lehrer Nathanael Lieberkühn (1821–1887) auf den Lehrstuhl. Seinen Berufungsverhandlungen ist der Institutsneubau im Jahre 1902 in der Unteren Rosenstraße (heute Robert-Koch-Straße) zu verdanken. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg wurden das anatomische Institut und seine Exponate nicht zerstört; die Sammlung wurde in den Folgejahren teilweise eingelagert. Erst seit 1985/1989 konnte sie im Dachgeschoss des Pathologischen Instituts als Museum zugänglich gemacht werden. Sie umfasst inzwischen über 3000 Exponate aus der Zeit zwischen 1650 und 1920. Die Präparate aus den Folgejahren wurden eingeäschert, da ihre Herkunft unklar war.

Abteilungen

Das Museum ist in fünf thematisch unterschiedlich ausgerichtete Räume gegliedert. Zu Beginn wird die Technik der Feucht-Präparation im Wandel der Zeit demonstriert: Menschliche Exponate, die mit Wasser, Wachs, verschiedenen Alkoholika und Harz haltbar gemacht wurden, verdeutlichen die Haltbarkeit der unterschiedlichen Methoden. Des Weiteren werden im Eingangsbereich Wachs- und Gipsmodelle menschlicher Organe präsentiert.

Ein Raum enthält eine „Rassen-Schädelsammlung“, die phrenologische Unterschiede zwischen den verschiedenen Ethnien demonstrieren soll; außerdem findet man hier Totenmasken und Schädel von besonderen Menschen wie zum Beispiel hingerichteten Verbrechern, die kraniometrisch vermessen wurden.

Die nächste Abteilung zeigt eine Sammlung von tierischen und menschlichen Skeletten, die zum Vergleich zwischen den Arten dienen sollte. Abnormitäten werden dort beispielhaft durch von Rachitis, Brüchen oder Skoliose deformierten Humanskeletten und Tierskeletten mit Fehlbildungen wie mehreren Gliedmaßen dargestellt.

In der embryologischen Abteilung können Besucher Präparate frühkindlicher Fehlbildungen (so genannte Missgeburten) wie Spina bifida, Doppelbildungen oder Wasserköpfe betrachten.

Ein eigener Raum ist der Geschichte der Geburtsmedizin gewidmet, in dem die Entwicklung der geburtshilflichen Gerätschaften dokumentiert wird. Hier befindet sich auch das „Marburger Lenchen“, ein Ganzkörperpräparat einer Hochschwangeren.

Im Flur der Sammlung werden die Folgen von Krankheiten auf den menschlichen Körper veranschaulicht; der Schädel eines Syphilis-Kranken ist hier ebenso ausgestellt wie das 2,44 Meter große Skelett des langen Anton, der an einem Tumor der Hirnanhangdrüse litt. Ein eigener Schaukasten ist gefüllt mit Präparaten zur Morphologie des Innenohres.

Christian Heinrich Bünger wurde als Begründer der umfangreichen Sammlung ein eigenes Zimmer gewidmet, in dem neben Nilpferdschädeln auch verschiedenste menschliche Präparate, Büngers Präparationsbesteck sowie konservierte tätowierte Haut zu sehen sind. Der Schädel und das Herz Büngers sind ebenfalls Bestandteil der anatomischen Sammlung, sind aber derzeit nicht ausgestellt.

November 5, 2008

Around 1437 a member of the Raczków family received a wilderness area along the river Biała from Michael Žygimantaitis, pretender to the throne of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the last male descendant of Sigismund Kęstutaitis.

 

From 1665 it belonged to the Branicki family, who developed it into a residential town. At the instigation of Stefan Branicki, Białystok received its town charter in 1692.

 

In the first half of the 18th century, Jan Klemens Branicki transformed the palace built by his father into a magnificent residence, which was frequently visited by Polish kings In 1748, one of the oldest theaters in Poland, the "Komedialnia", was founded here. In 1770, under the auspices of Jan Klemens Branicki´s wife Izabella Poniatowska, a midwifery school was founded, based on which the Institute of Obstetrics was established in 1805.

 

Białystok came under Prussian rule in 1796 and in 1807 after the Peace of Tilsit fell to Russia. This circumstance and the establishment of a customs border between Congress Poland and Russia in 1831 ensured a boom for the city, as companies from Poland moved their headquarters to the now Russian Białystok to continue producing for the Russian army. The opening of the Warsaw-Petersburg railway, which ran through Białystok, turned the city into an industrial center. In 1900, 63% of the inhabitants were Jews, so the city also developed as a significant Jewish center.

 

During WWI a German air raid took place in April 1915, which resulted in 13 dead. Heavy damage was caused by Russian troops when they retreated from the advancing Germans in August 1915. Białystok remained under German control until February 1919.

 

At the beginning of WWII, the city was taken by German troops but, according to the secret agreement in the German-Soviet non-aggression pact, it was handed over to the troops of the Soviet Union. In the course of the German attack on the Soviet Union in 1941, Białystok was again occupied by the Wehrmacht. In June 1941, the German police burned down the Great Synagogue of Białystok, into which they had previously herded hundreds of Jews. The new rulers established the Białystok ghetto here. Most of the approximately 43-60 thousand Jewish inhabitants at that time were taken to the extermination camps Treblinka and Auschwitz and murdered there.

.

 

St. Roch's Church The church was built on the initiative of the local provost, who in 1926 announced a competition for the design of the "Divine Providence Temple in Bialystok". More than Seventy entries were sent, with the design of Oskar Sosnowski finally winning. The church is planned as an octahedron, with three masses set on one another. After Sosnowski´s death, during the German siege of Warsaw), the construction was continued by Stanislaw Bukowski. During the Soviet occupation of eastern Poland during WW II, the Soviet authorities planned to open a circus in the unfinished building.

 

The church has an impressive, 83-meter tower. On the top, there is a 3-meter figure of Mary,

Midwife: Zoriat Ali owner/incharge

 

Location: Haji Usman Hebo Village. About 11 km from Makli in Thatta District.

 

Clinic Started Oct 2014. This is one of about 200 being handed over to trained midwifes under the Jhpiego/Mchip program. The clinic is now about 6 months old. I am told that this the most successful of the 9 Mchip midwife clinics initially started as it has solar powered LED lights, medicine dc refrigerator, dc fan and portable LED lanterns which were gifted under the "Kavalcare" Lodhie Foundation initiative.

Mother and child care and births are taking care and already many lives are being saved. Though this clinic was meant to support population within 5 to 10 mile distance, Midwife Zoriat's quality of work and popularity is making patients come from as far as 30km as I was told by Zoriat Ali.

I met the mother with the healthy baby son born in this clinic 6 months ago.

Zoriat Ali has already built two residential room home all at her own cost and effort attached to this one room clinic. She plans to build a separate delivery room attached to the clinic.

I can see the area around the clinic develop due to Zoriat's efforts and help from Jhpiego/Mchip

In this interesting ultrasound image, we have a 3D image of a sleeping fetus that appears to be very content. And what better place to be content than in mom's tummy? This is yet another example of the prevalence of emotions in the womb. You can also see that the fetus is continuing to develop with hands and extremities forming, where in this charming image the baby appears to be resting against a hand. Image provided by the courtesy of Dr. Layyous.

What are painful periods?

Painful periods are also called dysmenorrhoea. Menstrual cramps in the lower abdomen.

Associated symptoms include:

1. Low back pain,

2. Nausea,

3. diarrhea

4. Headache

5. Causes

 

There are two types of dysmenorrhoea:

1. Primary dysmenorrhoea is menstrual pain that is not caused by other diseases. There is no other cause for menstruation. The cause is too much prostaglandin in the body. These are chemicals that cause your uterine muscles to tense and relax, which in turn causes cramps.

The pain usually lasts a few days, but in some women it can last longer.

 

2. Secondary dysmenorrhoea is caused by diseases of your reproductive organs, such as endometriosis and fibroids in the uterus. The pain of secondary dysmenorrhoea can last a long time and can become severe.

 

To help relieve your menstrual pain,

1. try using a heating pad on your abdomen

2. Exercises

3. Hot showers

4. Relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation

 

Getting enough rest and avoiding alcohol and tobacco can also help. Ask Doctor Online for information about menstrual pain.
