Following Kant in his early work, he attempts to combine medical experience with an underlying conceptual structure. This attempt is directed against both the chaotic empiricism of traditional medicine and speculative theories such as vitalism.

Background: Controversies surrounding the efficacy of surgical sealants against alveolar air leaks (AAL) in lung surgery abound in the literature. We sought to test the sealing efficacy of a novel synthetic sealant, TissuePatch™ in an in vitro lung model.
Methods: The lower lobe of freshly excised swine lung (n = 10) was intubated and ventilated.

Background: The stabilising effect of atmospheric pressure on the hip joint was first described by the brothers Eduard and Wilhelm Weber in 1836. Later in 1837, they conducted an experiment in which they examined a weight-bearing cadaveric hip joint in an evacuable container and could repeatedly demonstrate dislocation of the femur head due to the significant reduction of surrounding pressure and its repositioning by normalisation of the pressure. In our study we aimed to honour the contribution of the Weber brothers, to reflect on the historical argument about the hip stabilising effect of atmospheric pressure they initiated, to repeat the famous experiment they did in 1837 using advanced sensors and radiological equipment and to demonstrate the consequences of the effect on total hip arthroplasty.

From the 1780s to the 1830s, physicians at the Charité hospital in Berlin conducted clinical trials designed to test the therapeutic effectiveness of animal magnetism. This study draws on those trials to investigate the practical and discursive deployment of the magnetist's body. It argues that that body--and the moral problems it came to pose--were increasingly purged from medical practice and discourse.
