Ebert told a meeting of the New York Heart Association, emphysema is a more or less permanent inflation of the lungs resulting from the loss of elasticity in their deepest recesses. There the tiny alveoli, or gas-exchange cells, give up carbon dioxide and take in oxygen. Clustered around small arteries, they are so numerous that they create a huge area for gas exchange-about 85 sq. yds. in the average adult...

Post-mortem examinations have recently shown that one victim may have suffered from severe bronchitis and a little emphysema while another may have had the reverse. To distinguish between these two types in living patients with labored breathing, said Dr. Ebert, is surprisingly difficult. In fact, there is a continuous spectrum ranging from patients with pure bronchitis...
