N2  - Some years ago I wrote several papers on the subject of the bilateral temperatures in cerebral hemorrhages, and came to the conclusion that cerebral hemorrhages of any importance caused a slight rise in the temperature on the paralyzed side, a phenomenon which did not occur in acute softenings and which had, therefore, some diagnostic value. I further found that there was no particular area in the cerebral hemispheres which seemed to have definite relation to rise or fall of the bodily temperature—in other words, no specific heat center, such as physiologists seem to be able to find in experimental studies on lower animals. Pursuing a somewhat similar line of investigations as regards blood pressures on each side of the body after cerebral hemorrhages, using the Piva-Bocci and Janeway apparatus, I found that, as a rule, there was a difference of several millimeters of mercury in the two sides, there being
