Nowhere has the study of bacteriology led to such brilliant successes as in obstetrics: thanks to antiseptics and asepsis, postpartum fever, which carried off a mass of women in labor to a premature grave, disappeared. But until now, eclampsia has remained invincible, resulting in many victims among pregnant women and women in labor. Although a number of recent studies have proven that seizures are caused by toxins that accumulate in the blood, as a product of the vital activity of special bacteria that develop in the body during pregnancy, we still do not know the conditions and reasons under which they develop.
