Winternitz states that the patients perspire profusely while in th cabinets, and the rapidity with which the perspiration sets in is specially insisted on by him. He says that after five minutes' exposure to the electric lamps profuse perspiration begins although the temperature of the air in the cabinets is not more than 8IO P. KeUogg, of Battle Creek, U.S.A., made experiments with the same kind of apparatus in 1894, and arrived at the same results. He seems to have recognised that the effects noticed were mainly due to radiant heat, and compares the action of radiant heat from a source at a high temperature with that of the heat of lower grade which is employed in the hot room of a Turkish bath. Thus, he says the degreeof erspiration obtained with an air temperature of 850 F. in the electrc cabinet was equal to that produced in a rurkish bath at 0o60 F.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
