hundreds of human lungs have shown that it is precisely in these areas of
maximum, exposure that precancerous changed are most likely to
uppear.
Thus there are some relationships between smoking, lung cancer, and
many other respiratory conditions. Furthermore, cigarette smoke is itself
an irritant. Heavy smokers feel this irritation in their throats and will be
developing «smoker's cough» after a few years of smoking.

\. Perhaps the most obvious symptom that may iesult from disease of
the liver or biliary passages is jaundice, and the estimation of the level of
bilirubin in the serum is to be therefore frequently carried out in the
investigation of a case of liver disease! V«

2. The fact that sera from different cases of jaundice can give different
types of reaction has been used as a basis for differentiating between
different types of jaundice. Jaundice should be divided into three main
types, viz.: obstructive jaundice, hepatocellular or «toxic» jaundice (with
or without some degree of accompanying obstruction) and haemolytic
jaundice. In uncomlicated obstructive jaundice, liver function is largely or
wholly normal, so that the bile pigments are excreted normally into the
bile passages; but owing to the presence of some obstruction (either a
stone impacted in the common bile duct, or obliteration of the duct by a
carcinoma of the head of the pancreas) the bile is unable to enter the
duodenum and has instead to be re-absorbed into the circulation. In
hepatocellular jaundice the function of the liver cells is changed so that
they can not excrete the normal amount of bile pigment reaching them in
the blood stream. In this case bilirubin level gradually rises. Iri haemolytic
jaundice the excessive amounts of bile pigment (which aite formed as a
result of the excessive red cell destruction) are incompletely excreted by
the liver cells and have been re-absorbed from the obstructive bile
