Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medico-Chirurgical Transactions, 1873, Vol. 38 A survey of all the cases on the register shows, as might have been expected, that the movements of respiration in disease are, on the whole, much less extensive than those in health. It is difficult at first glance to see how disease can ever produce exaggeration of motion except by bringing about an enlargement of the sound side to compensate for the loss of breathing on the other. The extent of motion of the bony walls also in the ordinary breathing of some diseased subjects may, by habit, be increased, the voluntary muscles being more brought into action but, even in this case, the limits of extreme expiration and inspiration will probably be less than in health. Increased movement may, however, in rare cases, be brought about by disease, especially in the extent of the upward motion.
