Paludic

The form of the paludic ameba is spherical when it is big and strong.

The paludic soils, coded "Pt," characterize peat accumulated in fen, transitional, or bog mire ecosystems.

The six forms of it studied successively by the author are : paludic orchidalgia, orchitis of the neuralgic form, hemorrhagic orchitis complicated with paludism, primitive paludic orchitis, chronic paludic orchitis, and paludic urethritis.

The principle explaining the transmission of paludic diseases through the introduction of the protozoa into the body of the Anopheles, and consequently into the vertebrate animals is universally accepted.

Quinine, for example, was a known treatment for malaria and other 'bilious fevers of a paludic nature'.
