Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the study of endocarditis undertaken by the author. Endocarditis is a disease that causes inflammation of the innermost layer of the heart, lining the chambers and valves. The author achieved significant progress in their research by developing ways to increase the chances of obtaining the bacteria that cause endocarditis from the blood. This success enabled the author to observe the condition in animal subjects, specifically rabbits. The author observed that the introduced bacteria caused lesions analogous to those of human endocarditis patients. The author also collected samples of bacteria from the mouths of healthy individuals and obtained similar results, suggesting that the bacteria causing endocarditis in humans may be common in the population. This study's findings provide valuable insights into the causes and potential treatments for endocarditis, making it a valuable resource for medical professionals and researchers in the field.
