Text A
Infections ofthe Respiratory Tract
1. While the slides were being prepared the lecturer announced the theme to be discussed. He said: «The respiratory tract is subject to infection more frequently than any other part of the body. Respiratory infections stand third as a cause of deaths; they lead all other causes between iiges of fifteen and thirty-five. The upper portion of the respiratory tract, the nose, throat and trachea, are affected more often than the lower, the bronchi and lungs. The deeper the inflammation, the more serious are its consequences; pneumonia is frequently fataljlnflammation of the deeper respiratory structures results from a downw^tfd extension of a compara-tively harmless inflammation in the upper structures.»
