...requirements of the individual patient; some patients will be getting less steroid or aspirin than they need, others too much. Drs. Alan K. Done and Vincent C. Kelley of the University of Utah College of Medicine produced new scientific evidence of a theory that might obviate any need to soup up common aspirin. In addition to acting on inflammations, said Drs. Done and Kelley, salicylates (aspirin's family) affect the pituitary-adrenal system, increasing the body's own production of cortisone-like hormones (TIME, June 7, 1954).
