Mechanisms of Physical Activity Limitation in Chronic Lung Diseases
Pulmonary Medicine - Tập 2012 - Trang 1-11 - 2012
Ioannis Vogiatzis, George Ε. Zakynthinos, Vasileios Andrianopoulos
In chronic lung diseases physical activity limitation is multifactorial involving respiratory, hemodynamic, and peripheral muscle abnormalities. The mechanisms of limitation discussed in this paper relate to (i) the imbalance between ventilatory capacity and demand, (ii) the imbalance between energy demand and supply to working respiratory and peripheral muscles, and (iii) the factors that...... hiện toàn bộ
Levels of Interferon-Gamma Increase after Treatment for Latent Tuberculosis Infection in a High-Transmission Setting
Pulmonary Medicine - Tập 2012 - Trang 1-6 - 2012
Iukary Takenami, Brook Finkmoore, Almério Machado, Krisztina Emodi, Lee W. Riley, Sérgio Arruda
Objectives. We investigated IFN-γlevels before and after a six month course of isoniazid among individuals with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in a high-transmission setting.Design. A total of 26 household contacts of pulmonary tuberculosis patients who were positive for LTBI by tuberculin skin test comp...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluating the Ameliorative Potential of Quercetin against the Bleomycin-Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis in Wistar Rats
Pulmonary Medicine - Tập 2013 - Trang 1-10 - 2013
R. C. Verma, Lokendra Kushwah, Darpesh Gohel, Manish Patel, Tulsi Marvania, Suresh Balakrishnan
The current study deals with the effect of a dietary flavanoid quercetin on fibrotic lung tissue in rats. Bleomycin was administered by single intratracheal instillation to Wistar rats to induce lung fibrosis. The pathologies associated with this included significantly reduced antioxidant capacity, ultimately leading to protracted inflammation of the lung tissue. The hallmark of this induc...... hiện toàn bộ
Practical Guidelines: Lung Transplantation in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis
Pulmonary Medicine - Tập 2014 - Trang 1-22 - 2014
Tim O. Hirche, Christian Benden, Helge Hebestreit, D. Shimmin, Amparó Solé, J.S. Elborn, Helmut Ellemunter, Paul Aurora, Michael Hogardt, Thomas Wagner, ECORN-CF Study Group
There are no European recommendations on issues specifically related to lung transplantation (LTX) in cystic fibrosis (CF). The main goal of this paper is to provide CF care team members with clinically relevant CF-specific information on all aspects of LTX, highlighting areas of consensus and controversy throughout Europe. Bilateral lung transplantation has been shown to be an important t...... hiện toàn bộ
Tube Thoracostomy: Complications and Its Management
Pulmonary Medicine - Tập 2012 - Trang 1-10 - 2012
Emeka B. Kesieme, Andrew E. Dongo, N Ezemba, Eshiobo Irekpita, NJ Jebbin, Chinenye N. Kesieme
Background. Tube thoracostomy is widely used throughout the medical, surgical, and critical care specialities. It is generally used to drain pleural collections either as elective or emergency. Complications resulting from tube thoracostomy can occasionally be life threatening.Aim. To present an update on the complications and managemen...... hiện toàn bộ
Amiloride-Sensitive Sodium Channels and Pulmonary Edema
Pulmonary Medicine - Tập 2011 - Trang 1-8 - 2011
Mike Althaus, Wolfgang Clauss, Martin Fronius
The development of pulmonary edema can be considered as a combination of alveolar flooding via increased fluid filtration, impaired alveolar-capillary barrier integrity, and disturbed resolution due to decreased alveolar fluid clearance. An important mechanism regulating alveolar fluid clearance is sodium transport across the alveolar epithelium. Transepithelial sodium transport is largely...... hiện toàn bộ
