Guest guest Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Another Jeopardy Q and A: Answer: To rheumatologists, he is important as the author of the first case of idiopathic vasculitis, polyarteritis nodosa, which even today is the basis of our understanding of vasculitis. To general internists, his name is linked to Kussmaul's sign and Kussmaul breathing, and to gastroenterologists, he is in many ways-through the development of the gastric pump and the first gastroscope-the father of modern gastroenterology. Question: Who was Adolf Kussmaul? http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve & db=PubMed & list_uids=1\ 2496507 & dopt=Abstract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
