The data of the literature and the methods of this investigation have been discussed in the previous paper. The present report (21 cases of chronic catarrhal bronchitis and one case of chronic atrophic bronchitis) is containing the morphometric results of tissue changes in the bronchial walls of four proximal bronchial generations. In the catarrhal form of chronic bronchitis in contrast to normal conditions the Reid's index increases about two folds, its value being about equal for the main, labor, segmental and subsegmental bronchi of the first order. In catarrhal chronic bronchitis the relative volume (in %) of the bronchial glands of the bronchial walls increases in the same bronchial generations, vice versa, relative the volume of the connective tissue decreases, but the relative volume of the smooth muscle and of the cartilaginous discs has been found to be unchanged. This volume of the bronchial glands to periphery (from the main bronchus to the subsegmental) has been demonstrated to decrease a little (not significantly). The relative volume of smooth muscles and of the connective tissue increases. Morphometric findings could be obtained only in one case of atrophic chronic bronchitis; therefore they are inadequate for statistic analysis.
前一篇论文已讨论了文献数据及本研究方法。本报告（21例慢性卡他性支气管炎和1例慢性萎缩性支气管炎）包含了四级近端支气管壁组织变化的形态学测量结果。与正常情况相比，在卡他性慢性支气管炎中，里德指数增加约两倍，其值在一级主支气管、叶支气管、段支气管和亚段支气管中大致相等。在卡他性慢性支气管炎中，同一级支气管壁的支气管腺体相对体积（以百分比计）增加，相反，结缔组织的相对体积减小，但平滑肌和软骨盘的相对体积未发现变化。从主支气管到亚段支气管，支气管腺体与外周的体积比略有减小（无显著差异）。平滑肌和结缔组织的相对体积增加。仅在1例萎缩性慢性支气管炎中获得了形态学测量结果；因此，这些结果不足以进行统计学分析。
