Página 26 - The influence of sex and age in the production of hemoptysis is not undeserving of attention. In the practice of M. Louis it occurred more frequently in females than in males, in the proportion of three to two. The age of the females was most commonly from forty to sixtyfive, that is, after the period at which the catamenia usually cease ; the reverse, Louis remarks, of what should have occurred had the hemoptysis been an effect of amenorrhoja or a substitute for the suppressed catamenia.
