Bronchia

He analyzed the noise on telephone lines, the branching of bronchia in the lungs, the shape of coastlines and clouds, the distribution of word frequencies in literature and of stars and galaxies in the universe. ❋ Richard Hudson (2010)

If fumes or fuliginous vapours and air permeate this vessel, as they do the pulmonary bronchia, wherefore do we find neither air nor fuliginous vapours when we divide the pulmonary vein? ❋ Unknown (2005)

Glandulae pituitariae turgentes bronchia comprimunt. ❋ Unknown (2004)

Its nose had been replaced with another spike, the task of breathing being accomplished through a series of holes bored through the creature's sternum and directly into its bronchia. ❋ King, J. Robert (1999)

After they had died, any part of their carcasses would register on a photographic plate and tissue from the apices of their lungs and from the bronchia glowed with a light of its own. ❋ Heinlein, Robert A. (1966)

The same causes which produce inflammation of the lungs, of the bronchia, and of the other respiratory organs, produce also pleurisy. ❋ Robert Jennings (N/A)

BRONCHIECTASIS (Gr. [Greek: bronchia], bronchial tubes, and [Greek: ektasis], extension), dilatation of the bronchi, a condition occurring in connexion with many diseases of the lungs. ❋ Various (N/A)

Among the more serious and dangerous forms of acute disease of this class which, lacking proper treatment, develop into chronic forms, are the catarrhal affections of the lungs and bronchia, = grippe =, ❋ Louis Dechmann (N/A)

Where the effect is to be extended to the trachea and its branches, the bronchia and the tips of the lungs, especially in the case of cough, it is still better to apply the following: ❋ Louis Dechmann (N/A)

The men who breathe too much the gases liberated on explosion of powder or dynamite suffer more than other miners from affections of the larynx, the bronchia, and the stomach. ❋ Various (N/A)

Also the bronchia, lungs, pleura and pericardium become affected, as sneezing, cough (the so-called scarlet-cough) and the pain across the chest and in the region of the heart indicate. ❋ Charles Munde (N/A)

Eastern States, is a contagious fever, affecting cows chiefly, characterized by extensive exudations into the respiratory organs, and attended by a low typhus inflammation of the lungs, pluræ, and bronchia. ❋ Various (N/A)

The trachea and the bronchia are slightly red, and the right side of the head is gorged with blood. ❋ Robert Jennings (N/A)

It has been found in Europe very useful in chronic bronchitis, aphony, and nervous affections of the bronchia, and in laryngitis and hooping-cough. ❋ Unknown (1863)

Mucous and wheezing; mucous râle in the bronchia; discharge from the nostrils of purulent matter, white, gray, or black, and sometimes fetid. ❋ William Youatt (1811)

Another worm about the same size was found in the left bronchia, and a still smaller one among the mucus of the trachea: there were also four others in the nose. ❋ William Youatt (1811)

When in the dropsy of the thorax, the patient endeavours to lie down, does not the extravasated fluid compress the upper parts of the bronchia, and totally preclude the access of air to every part of the lungs; whilst in the perpendicular attitude the inferior parts of the lungs only are compressed? ❋ Erasmus Darwin (1766)

The minute vessels of the bronchia, through which the blood passes from the arterial to the venal system, and which correspond with the cutaneous capillaries, have frequently been exposed to cold air, and become quiescent along with those of the skin; and hence their motions are so associated together, that when one is affected either with quiescence or exertion, the other sympathizes with it, according to the laws of irritative association. ❋ Erasmus Darwin (1766)
