Of course, this appellant did not hold itself out to carry or display everybody's advertising, and its rental of space on the sides of its trucks was only incidental to the main business which brought its trucks into the streets. But it is not difficult to see that, in a day of extravagant advertising more or less subsidized by tax deduction, the rental of truck space could become an obnoxious enterprise. While I do not think highly of this type of regulation, that is not my business, and in view of the control I would concede to cities to protect citizens in quiet and orderly use for their proper purposes of the highways and public places (see dissent in Saia v. New York, 334 U.S. 558, 566), I think the judgment below must be affirmed.

Question 1

In children with abdominal pain and fever, does a white cell count help establish a diagnosis of appendicitis?

Question 2

I have always been taught that ulcerative colitis only affects the large bowel with some associated proctitis. I read in your chapter on gastrointestinal disease that it can cause mouth ulcers and am now confused.

Question 3

In pseudomembranous colitis, what is the first treatment of choice, metronidazole or vancomycin?

Question 4

Is Crohn's disease considered as an autoimmune disease. If it is, are there other predisposing factors to it other than genetics? If it is not, what is its nature?

Question 5

Why does carcinoma of the ascending colon cause more anaemia than obstruction, and carcinoma of the descending colon more obstruction features and less anaemia?

Question 6

What is the cause of abdominal bloating, which is often a symptom in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)?649

Question 7

1. Where is the Traub's area situated anatomically?

2. What does it mean if it is dull on percussion?

3. What is the proper way to percuss this area?

Question 8

In general, it is claimed that only water and some salts are absorbed in the large gut, whereas the small gut is practically free of bacteria (which are present only in the large gut). In a patient on broad-spectrum antibiotics, bleeding can occur as a result of vitamin K deficiency. If the flora synthesizing vitamin K is disturbed, how can vitamin deficiency occur when the large gut is not supposed to absorb? How can this be due to a change in bacterial flora?

Question 9

Why does colonic cancer more commonly occur on the left rather than the right side of the colon?

Question 10

Why does colonic cancer more commonly occur on the left rather than the right side of the colon
