There are cases in which a rifle bullet traverses the joint from side to side, often without inflicting any damage, or the most trivial damage, to the bone. In other cases the bullet, or a shrapnel ball, may have entered the joint and have lodged in the lower end of the femur, or in the upper end of the tibia. The wound or wounds inflicted may be small.

In a positive but incomplete reaction floccules are seen in the still cloudy fluid. In a negative reaction the fluid in the tubes remains uniformly cloudy as in the control.
Side 5 - Always believe a young unmarried woman with abdominal tumor of high social position and unimpeachable virtue, if she has been watched over by a platonic and abstemious young cousin of the male persuasion, while the mother went out, to be pregnant.
Side 256 - ... important element in differential diagnosis, and points rather to septum defect or pulmonary stenosis than to endocarditis. " (4) An abnormally weak second pulmonic sound associated with a distinct systolic murmur is a symptom which in early childhood is only to be explained by the assumption of a congenital pulmonary stenosis, and possesses therefore an importance from a point of differential diagnosis which is not to be underestimated. " (5) Absence of a palpable thrill, despite loud murmurs...
