Dr Robert Smith discusses the relationship between pain and emotional disturbance and describes experiments which he has undertaken in general practice, using a pressure algometer. Amongst other findings, he shows that aspirin did not relieve pressure pain but did delay or even suppress the onset of ultraviolet light burns.Dr K D Keele describes experiments to define individual pain thresholds and correlates these with the pain of cardiac infarction, and the morphine requirements in that condition.Professor C A Keele considers the chemistry of pain production and describes his technique for applying chemical algogens to experimentally induced blisters. He further considers the similarity between such substances and those contained in animal and plant venoms and speculates as to an even closer relationship between these and painful medical conditions.
罗伯特·史密斯博士讨论了疼痛与情绪障碍之间的关系，并描述了他在普通科医疗中使用压力痛觉计进行的实验。在其他研究结果中，他表明阿司匹林不能缓解压力疼痛，但确实能延迟甚至抑制紫外线灼伤的发作。K·D·基尔博士描述了确定个体疼痛阈值的实验，并将这些阈值与心肌梗死的疼痛以及该病症中的吗啡需求量相关联。C·A·基尔教授考虑了疼痛产生的化学原理，并描述了他将化学致痛物质应用于实验性水疱的技术。他进一步思考了这类物质与动植物毒液中所含物质之间的相似性，并推测它们与疼痛性医疗状况之间可能存在更紧密的关系。
