Cholesterinemia in alcohol intoxication

cholesterinemia, ethanol, alcohol intoxication.

Abstract

Our knowledge of the action that ethyl alcohol exerts on the human organism is exclusively anatomo-pathological. There is no doubt that the cytological alterations described in chronic alcoholism are preceded and accompanied by histochemical modifications; but our ignorance is complete on this point and we have only a few hypotheses that try to explain the mechanism of narcosis due to alcohol.

Author Biography

  • Vigilio Ducceschi, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba

    The first historians of psychology in Argentina and Latin America have laconically mentioned the presence of Virgilio Ducceschi on the map of the initiators of experimental psychology. For many years the trail of this medical physiologist who would lay the foundations of experimental psychology in Córdoba, Argentina, was lost. Ducceschi's pioneering work in Latin America, more precisely in Córdoba, involved the teaching of psychology in the chair of experimental psychology that he created in 1907, as well as the creation of a new apparatus for psychological experiments: the mental recorder (1910). The chair of physiology, in which Ducceschi began to serve from 1906, was created by Dr. De Grandis, the same one who guided the creation of the famous laboratory of Horacio Piñero in Buenos Aires.
