De hepatis inflammatione theses

...the whole body can command or transmit, or otherwise other parts, whether they are nearer or more distant, that are burdened or irritated.

XIV.
The part receives the flux because it is weak and feeble; it attracts because it is tortured by pain and morbid heat.

XV.
The expulsive faculty of the transmitting parts pours out or expels blood from the veins, burdened by quantity, irritated by quality, or molested by both modes.

XVI.
A vicious and harmful quality regards either the fervor, or the thinness, or the acrimony of the blood.

XVII.
But both quantity and quality have their origin and source from evident and procatarctic pre-disposing causes.

XVIII.
Among the procatarctic and evident causes, therefore, those are mainly to be recounted which either increase the quantity or change the quality, whence arises the irritation and stimulation of the expulsive faculty.

XIX.
Foods that are primarily euchymoi good-juiced/nutritious and highly nourishing increase the quantity, as does no small amount of idleness; these two things almost always ensure that blood is multiplied in the veins. To the two causes from Galen, one may add the suppression of hemorrhoids, of menses, or of another accustomed evacuation.

XX.
Not only do foods and drinks that heat the blood, making it thin, sharp, and fervid, change the quality, but also other things, such as immoderate exercise, excessive venery, etc. To these can be added a blow, a fall, and a strong constriction, and if there are any others that can make the liver weak and heat it beyond what is possible.
