Recent evidence tends to confirm this impression. Auerbach and associates reported greater prevalence of pathologic changes in the bronchial mucosa of smokers than in nonsmokers.1Eich, Gilbert and Auchincloss found increased airway resistance as an acute effect of cigarette smoking in a few patients with pulmonary emphysema. They observed no change in pulmonary mechanics after smoking in normal subjects.2In Higgins' field study of a random population sample in England there was evidence of reduced ventilatory...Bibliography1.
