Note on the Experiments with Professor Lustig's
Serum in 1900-1901 by Dr. Polverini.
Having satisfied themselves from the results of the alternate treat-
ment with Prof. Lustig's serum during 1900, that there was no doubt
about its curative properties, the Special Medical Officer, Plague
Operations, Col. J. S. Wilkins, D. S. O., suggested, and the late Municipal
Commissioner, Mr. Harvey, decided its preparation on a still larger scale,
sanctioning the purchase of 15 more horses and the necessary apparatus,
which latter had to be ordered from Europe.
Unfortunately they did not arrive until 17th January 1901. So the
immunisation could not be proceeded with as vigorously as it was desired
and a good number of the new horses could not be taken in hand pro-
perly before the date abovementioned. It was intended to immunise the
horses over a longer period than hitherto in order to get a stronger
serum, but the necessity of meeting the demand for the serum did not
permit of the carrying out of this intention, as the serum derived from
the old horses had to be used in 3 to 4 times larger doses than in the
previous epidemic and got exhausted much quicker than expected. Al-
ready in the months from August to December 1900, it was noticed at
the Arthur Road Hospital, that the serum treatment did not give the
expected reduction of the mortality although the experiments on animals
showed a satisfactory increase in strength due to the prolonged immu-
nisation of the old horses. The clinical observation and bacteriological
examination soon revealed the cause of the lesser efficacy of the serum.
The type of the cases of plague admitted to the hospital had undergone
a considerable change, which but for the serum treatment might have
escaped detection for a much longer time, the admissions being so few.
The type was characterised by the preponderance of triple buboes, i. e.,
femoral, inguinal and iliacal buboes, the frequency of septicaemia, 45 %
of the patients showing this almost absolutely fatal complication already
on admission, and of relapses. The proportion of the patients with triple
buboes to those with single buboes was reversed 2:1 instead of 1:2 as
formerly. That alone could account for the less satisfactory results ob-
tained with the serum which had never shown decided curative effects
in patients with contiguous buboes. ( Vide the report for the epidemic of
1899-1900, page 376.)
It might be said that the increased doses should have compensated
the multiplicity of the foci of infection. Against that it must be re-
membered that the cures effected by a serum treatment and for the matter
of that, by any kind of treatment, is only within certain limits, a mere
question of quantity. This was experimentally proved for the virus of
and serum against typhoid fever. Whereas 0•001 cc. of typhoid fever
serum was able to protect a guinea-pig against 0•002 gr. of a living culture.
0•003 cc. of the serum was unable to do so against 0•006 gr. of the culture.
253
It is of interest to inquire into the reasons for the change of the
proportion of the types of plague as it was observed in hospitals.
Although triple buboes were no doubt oftener met with, also in early
cases it is hardly admissible to explain their preponderance in hospitals, by
this fact alone claiming thus the distinction of a special type of plague for
triple buboes. Triple buboes no doubt develop very often from single
buboes and correspond to a more advanced stage of the disease. I am in-
clined to believe that patients were generally brought later to the hospitals
than in the previous years when hospital treatment was compulsory for
plague. It is more than probable that under the new rules the patients
were kept at home until they had got bad enough for being sent to the
hospital, the infection having either spread to the neighbouring glands or
become generalised. This would help to explain the change of the propor-
tion of the types of plague admitted to the hospital which change affected
also the number of convalescents who were fewer than in previous years.
Also the number of patients with plague pneumonia and such dying few
hours after admission were less no doubt, because patients in very bad
condition were not exposed to the hardships of the transport. Therefore
the disheartening uniform severity of the patients collecting in the
hospitals in whom the serum treatment was commenced not with the
confidence of recovery, as in previous years, but simply in order " to give
the patient a chance."
The serum was used at the Arthur Road Hospital, the Maratha
Hospital and in private practice. From 1st of August until the 1st of
February the patients were selected at the Arthur Road Hospital; out
of 85 admissions 50 were treated with the serum. The total recovery
rate was 27%. In February no serum Was available. From 1st March
until 31st of May the patients were treated alternately, 104 with and 102
without serum. The recovery rate was 22% and 20•5% respectively.
The analysis of the cases shows that the recovery rate for single buboes
was a good deal higher under the serum treatment and that the serum
patients generally lived considerably longer than the others. It shows
also that the serum side was at a disadvantage, as it had more patients
with triple buboes and more cases of septicæmia amongst the single
buboes. If the serum treatment could have been continued during Febru-
ary when the largest number of patients was admitted, these disadvantages
would have most probably been compensated and a more substantial
difference in favour of the serum been obtained.
It has already been pointed out in the previous reports that the
results of the alternate treatment are reliable only if a large number of
cases is dealt with. It is therefore clear that the results obtained during
this epidemic, although not satisfactory, can in no way shake the evidence
obtained in the previous epidemic from a five times larger number of
observations.
64
255
indicates clearly that even large doses of a strong serum will have only
very limited life-saving effects in the patients as they are admitted at
present in our hospitals. In order to get the expected and possible
benefit from the serum treatment, it will be necessary, apart from the
perfection of the serum, to try to induce the patients to resortr earlier
to the hospital and to encourage the use of the serum in private practice.
The first step for this purpose seems to convince the public that there
is a reliable remedy against the disease if applied in proper time. Once
such a conviction has taken root, there is no doubt that the patients will
come to the hospital as soon as possible and that the serum will be used
more extensively in private practice ; but with the authorities themselves
in part reluctant to acknowledge the results of the serum treatment, it
will be very difficult to create that conviction.
