[The research work of Dr. Jirí Franta in the shadow of his death sentence].

A report on three manuscripts written in German by Doc. Dr. J. Franta (1899-1945) in prison after his death verdict (May 7, 1943) for his activity in the resistance movement. The first manuscript--a contribution on the genesis and medicamentous treatment of cataract--was a conspectus (16 pp.). After a positive review by prof. Dr. H. Rieger it served as the basis for five chapters which formed the second manuscript (52 pp.). The working hypothesis on the influence of infrared radiation on the intraocular metabolism and the suggested detailed local and general, clinical and experimental examination of subjects with a transparent and opaque lens was important. In the third manuscript (12 pp.) the author outlined his plan of biochemical examinations in keratoplastic operations, in particular as regards material from donors. Even after reading Franta's letters from prison addressed to his family, the circumstances under which the manuscripts were written are not quite clear--permission to do research given to a person sentenced to death is quite exceptional.
