Airway compromising an airway [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2016 There are several tracheostomy tube types that can be used by patients who present to the emergency department with temporary or long-term artificial airways. While specific knowledge of each type may not be required, it is important for the emergency physician to be aware of their general structure and the complications that can arise from them ...

Cytomegalovirus serology in young to mid‐adult life and decline of lung function
The Clinical Respiratory Journal, 2023 Introduction Cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity has been recently linked to severity and progression of asthma, cystic fibrosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). To date, no longitudinal study has addressed the relation of CMV serology

High cytomegalovirus serology and subsequent COPD-related mortality: a longitudinal study
ERJ Open Research, 2020 Background Positive serology for cytomegalovirus (CMV) has been associated with all-cause mortality risk but its role in COPD mortality is unknown. The objective of the present study was to assess the relationship between CMV serology and COPD mortality.

Consensus guidelines for managing the airway in patients with COVID‐19
Anaesthesia, 2020 Severe acute respiratory syndrome‐corona virus‐2, which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), is highly contagious. Airway management of patients with COVID‐19 is high risk to staff and patients. We aimed to develop principles for airway management

Detecting Alterations in Pulmonary Airway Development with Airway-by-Airway Comparison [PDF]
Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2011 Neonatal and postnatal exposures to air pollutants have adverse effects on lung development resulting in airway structure changes. Usually, generation-averaged analysis of airway geometric parameters is employed to differentiate between pulmonary airway trees.
