The problem of how to recognise seismic collapse lies at the basis of the possibility of using archaeological sources in the rield of historical seismology. Hitherto this problem has been approached in an arbitraiy and subjectile manner, because there exists no systematic collection of data which permits access to a specific series of case histories in the field of archaeological collapse, distinguishing their numerous causes. The problein is also posed because archaeological techniques are by nature ~destructivena, nd important seismic traces may disappear and no longer be utilizable in the scientific sphere. The authors point our this documentary lacuna, and propose the compilation oT a thematic atlas on seismic collapses in archaeology: a new disciplinary tool. which may also prove useful for those concerned with the protection and conservation of archaeological areas

SummaryCase histories suitable for statistical evaluation can be found even as far back as in the Corpus Hippocraticum. Such simple data as the patient’s age, body weight, size, the date of menarche, etc. are practically always included in the case records, and it is demonstrated that, when such data are recorded in a system of documentation suitable for mechanical sorting, it may enable us to draw conclusions of very great importance. Mechanical registration methods have revealed that, in the determination and recording of data as hitherto carried out. there has been a surprisingly large number of errors and a high degree of unreliability. This view has a considerable influence on modern clinical methods; it renders a more democratic relation between physician and patient necessary and makes clear the need for measures to enhance the reliability of diagnosis and treatment of pathological conditions. The author illustrates this view with reference to the mechanical falsification of the thesis of the proneness of early age groups to lupus vulgaris, furthermore with reference to the mechanical rationalization of modern routine diagnostic methods, to the constant surveillance of adverse effects on public health and to the protection against allergic reactions with the aid of recording systems of personal allergy and intolerance data with mechanical sorting and computer techniques.

Marmaduke Tunstall (1743–1790) was a naturalist, antiquary and collector. Active in London during the 1760s and early 1770s, he built up an extensive Library and a Museum that was particularly notable for its systematic collection of British birds. Tunstall corresponded with several of the leading British naturalists, and with Linnaeus, and made his collections available for study to several authors. At the age of 33, Tunstall retired to a country estate at Wycliffe on the south bank of the Tees, where he spent the rest of his life. Newly-discovered information is incorporated with previously-published data, to provide a new account of Marmaduke Tunstall's life and activities, as a background to other studies on his family and his collections.

In order to include innovative technologies in clinical recommendations, confirmation of their clinical effectiveness in comprehensive treatment of burned patients is necessary. 1,696 case histories of patients with burns were audited, which are divided into two groups depending on peculiarities of treatment. The use of innovative treatment technologies for burned patients has reduced the incidence of burn disease complications and mortality. Introduction of innovative technologies in treating burned patients into broad clinical practice improves results of provision of specialized, high-tech medical care for victims of burns.
