Historical Chronology of Significant Medical and Sanitary Engineering Discoveries -- Including Dr. Anichkov's Technique of Killing Rabbits!
Karl Note: Various books on the history of medicine often include Dr. Nikolai Anichkov as one of the most important -- it was he who tested rabbits and reported in 1912. Rabbits are vegetarians -- they never eat meat. Dr. Anichkov fed rabbits lots of meat and they died. He claimed that they died from heart disease and that they had very high cholesterol on the basis of their meat diet.
What a foolish claim! Many scientists in more modern times will make reference to this "study" without ever telling you about it -- so as to make a false claim of early origin for the "high-cholesterol causes heart disease" myth!
Here is an example of how one medical history lists Dr. Anichkov's "discovery" -- as if he was the first person to discover this truth -- which is, of course, a lie!
Here is an illustration of how this FALSE report is falsely reported:
1912 -- Nikolai Anichkov discovered that cholesterol was responsible for coronary artery disease, currently the world's most deadly disease. source
and
Today’s master planners will start off citing the rabbit study, but omit the fact that there were rabbits involved, or fail to mention that rabbits can’t use animal products in their diet -- they die! One of the most misleading of these is Dr. Kenneth H. Cooper:
With Anitschkow’s experiments, however, the connection between cholesterol-laden foods and hardening of the arteries began to be much clearer.
Nikolai Anichkov also appears spelled as: Nikolai Anitschkov in some references.

Sanitary Engineering Discoveries |
|
16th Century |
1543 |
Andreas Vesalius presents "De Humani Corporis Fabrica," or "The Structure of the Human Body," which detailed the anatomy of the human body. He was the first to point out that without bones, human beings would be mushy blobs. "It presented medicine with the precious gift of the scientific method with which to approach an infinite number of future medical problems." | |
|
17th Century |
1628 |
William Harvey published "De Motu Cordis" or "On the Motion of the Heart," in which he described the functions of the heart and the circulation of blood. Introducing his discovery of circulation, Harvey wrote that his findings were "of so novel and unheard-of character, that I not only fear injury to myself from the envy of a few, but I tremble lest I have mankind at large for my enemies." | |
|
1675 |
Anton Leeuwenhoek, a haberdasher and part-time janitor, looking at a drop of rainwater under a microscope, discovered "little animals" - or bacteria, a cause of myriad diseases. | ||
|
18th Century |
1796 |
By using cowpox, which causes a mild disease in human beings, to protect a person from the deadlier smallpox, Edward Jenner discovered vaccination. His method of injecting dead bacteria or their toxins helped eradicate smallpox, and protects against bubonic plague, chickenpox, cholera, diphtheria, influenza, measles, mumps, rabies, typhoid fever, tetanus and other diseases. | |
|
19th Century |
1842 |
Crawford Long, using ether to prevent his patients from feeling pain, developed surgical anesthesia. | |
|
1895 |
Wilhelm Roentgen discovered the X-ray beam, and developed one of the most important diagnostic tools. | ||
|
20th Century |
1907 |
Ross Harrison figured out how to grow living cells outside the body. " It made possible the study of living organisms at the cellular and even the molecular level and the development of modern vaccines…and abetted the search for the causes of cancer (and AIDS). Indeed, because of tissue culture, more has been learned about the basic mechanisms of disease in the past 50 years than in the previous 5,000." | |
|
1912 |
Nikolai Anichkov discovered that cholesterol was responsible for coronary artery disease, currently the world's most deadly disease. | ||
|
1928 |
Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, which led the way for the development of other antibiotics to treat infections. | ||
|
1950-53 |
Maurice Wilkins did the pioneering work of isolating a single fiber of DNA and examining it, which James Watson and Francis Crick then used to develop their own double helix model of DNA, the heredity-bearing molecule. Wilkins shared the Nobel Prize with them for the discovery, which opened the door to genetics research in 1962. |
