title: Pulmonary and other examples of muscular malfunction, especially muro-sphincteric conflict in contractile chambers...commentaries.
abstract: The mammalian body is composed of similar organs, the contractile chambers, which are therefore subject to similar inherent disorders. The basic unit is a muscular compartment which according to its function may or may not have sphincters. Muscles come in pairs, which normally cooperate. A universal form and cause of disease is failure of the essential reciprocity between mated muscles and allied groups. Clinicians encounter them as the inherent disorders of the hollow muscular organs/contractile chambers.
