Resumen
The following article comprises a summary of various of our observations previously published or reported before the Asociacion Medica Argentina (May 3, 1915) and abstracted in La Prensa Medica (1915, p. 451). A concluding report of the entire investigation is shortly to appear. Different immediate effects occur when pituitary extracts are administered to dogs intravenuously. The chemical composition of the gland is very constant, as are the physiological effects of the gland extracts, but these effects vary qualitatively according to the methods of preparation.
