It's a brutal calculous that makes for an entertaining game.

"I think the calculous is changing almost by the minute," said Tad Devine, a Democratic consultant who was Bernie Sanders's senior strategist during last year's campaign.

He focused on the importance of preparation and cleanliness. In 1836, Dudley wrote Observations on the nature and treatment of calculous diseases.Dudley, Benjamin W. (Benjamin Winslow), 1785-1870: Observations on the nature and treatment of calculous diseases / by Benjamin W. Dudley. (Lexington, Ky. : J. Clarke & Co., Printers, 1836) (page images at HathiTrust) Dudley became known for his expertise as a surgeon throughout the Western United States.

Patients are more likely to have yellowing of the skin (jaundice) than in calculous cholecystitis. Ultrasonography or computed tomography often shows an immobile, enlarged gallbladder. Treatment involves immediate antibiotics and cholecystectomy within 24–72 hours.

Barie PS. Acalculous and postoperative cholecystitis. In: Surgical intensive care, Barie PS, Shires GT. (Eds), Little Brown & Co, Boston 1993. p.837. It is associated with many causes including vasculitis, chemotherapy, major trauma or burns. The presentation of acalculous cholecystitis is similar to calculous cholecystitis.

Richard Digby, who believes his philosophy on life is the correct one, refuses to share his ideas with anyone else. His heart ails from accretions of calculous. He leaves his home, deciding to become a hermit. In the wilderness he discovers a cave and decides to make it his new home, a place where he can meditate.

Gallstones blocking the flow of bile account for 90% of cases of cholecystitis (acute calculous cholecystitis). Blockage of bile flow leads to thickening and buildup of bile causing an enlarged, red, and tense gallbladder. The gallbladder is initially sterile but often becomes infected by bacteria, predominantly E. coli, Klebsiella, Streptococcus, and Clostridium species. Inflammation can spread to the outer covering of the gallbladder and surrounding structures such as the diaphragm, causing referred right shoulder pain.

Bayle is remembered for his extensive work in pathological anatomy, making contributions in research of cancer and tuberculosis. As the result of 900 post-mortem investigations, he described six different types of tuberculosis — ulcerous phthisis, calculous phthisis, cancerous phthisis, tubercular phthisis, glandular phthisis and phthisis with melanosis. His best known written effort was the 1810 Recherches sur la phthisie pulmonaire (Research of pulmonary tuberculosis). He also penned a treatise on cancerous diseases that was published posthumously (1833) by his nephew, Antoine Laurent Bayle.

Yelloly and published in the Philosophical Transactions for 1829 "Remarks on the Tendency to Calculous Diseases", a work based on the museum of stones extracted from the bladder in Norwich Hospital. He published a further work on the same subject in 1830, and a pamphlet On Arrangements connected with the Medical Relief of the Sick Poor in 1837. He read before the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society seven papers, of which two deal with paralysis due to tumour of the brain.

He published in 1817 An Essay on the Chemical History and Medical Treatment of Calculous Disorders. He complains that he was unable to give full statistics, as no major London hospital then kept any regular record of cases. He was probably the first to remark that the pain of a renal calculus is often due to its passage down a ureter, and that it may grow in the kidney without the patient suffering acutely at all. For Rees's Cyclopædia he contributed articles on chemistry, but the topics are not known.

The existence of kidney stones was first recorded thousands of years ago, and lithotomy for the removal of stones is one of the earliest known surgical procedures. In 1901, a stone discovered in the pelvis of an ancient Egyptian mummy was dated to 4,800 BC. Medical texts from ancient Mesopotamia, India, China, Persia, Greece, and Rome all mentioned calculous disease. Part of the Hippocratic Oath suggests there were practicing surgeons in ancient Greece to whom physicians were to defer for lithotomies. The Roman medical treatise De Medicina by Aulus Cornelius Celsus contained a description of lithotomy, and this work served as the basis for this procedure until the 18th century.

He was Gulstonian lecturer at the Royal College of Physicians in 1845, when he lectured On the Blood: principally in regard to its Physical and Pathological Attributes; Croonian lecturer in 1856–8, when he chose for his subjects Calculous Disease and its Consequences and Frequent Micturition; and Harveian orator in 1869. He became the first Lettsomian lecturer at the Medical Society of London in 1850, and in 1851 he delivered a course on Some of the Pathological Conditions of the Urine. In later life Rees was consulting physician to the Queen Charlotte Lying-in Hospital and physician-extraordinary to Queen Victoria. He was frequently associated with Alfred Swaine Taylor in criminal investigations—notably in the trial of William Palmer, the Rugeley poisoner, in 1856.

"The carbonic acid gas therein is formed by combination and not by compression. This is a very clear water, a tangy flavor, fresh, very nice. In its most recent analysis made by Mr. O. Henry, giving it nearly 3 grams of carbon dioxide per liter, many earthen and alkaline bi-carbonates and proportion of nitrate of magnesia whose presence seems to explain this amazing fact that the residents of Saint-Galmier have never counted a calculous person among them." One source in 1856 says that the spring was capable of producing 7000 bottles a day. A 2004 analysis by the French Society for Radiation Protection confirms the spring water emits 70 becquerels per liter of radiation before treatment, containing 58 mg/m3 of uranium, 350 Bq/m3 of radium-226 and 713 Bq/m3 of radium-228.
