2. Fig. 1
The arterial capsule (see text). When the two halves of the polythene capsule (C) are glued together around the artery (A), they form an enclosed space that can be filled with Ringer's solution (R). Silicone rubber tubes (S1 and S2) allow the capsule to be emptied and refilled at regular intervals. The quantity of radioactive fibrinogen that passes from the blood stream through the arterial wall into the capsule fluid can be measured and the permeability coefficient of the artery calculated.

5. Fig. 4
The permeability coefficient (PC units, cm−2 × 10−4) of the control (CON), smoking (SMOKE), carbon monoxide (CO), and nicotine infusion (NICO) experiments. Means and standard deviations are presented. * = statistical significance between smoking and controls after 180 minutes (p < 0.01). ** = statistical significance between carbon monoxide inhalation and control after 180 minutes (p < 0.001).
