Airway Inflammation and Airway Hyperresponsiveness [PDF]
, 2021 Airway inflammation is a complex inflammatory process of airways involving the contribution of various cells, recruited and activated in asthmatic conditions, and the mediators released by them. However, major components contributing to this inflammation are eosinophils, mast cells, and lymphocytes.

Long‐term expanding human airway organoids for disease modeling
EMBO Journal, 2019 Organoids are self‐organizing 3D structures grown from stem cells that recapitulate essential aspects of organ structure and function. Here, we describe a method to establish long‐term‐expanding human airway organoids from broncho‐alveolar resections or ...

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2015 These guidelines provide a strategy to manage unanticipated difficulty with tracheal intubation. They are founded on published evidence. Where evidence is lacking, they have been directed by feedback from members of the Difficult Airway Society and based

Scientific Reports, 2022 Particles in exhaled air (PEx) are generated when collapsed small airways reopen during breathing. PEx can be noninvasively collected by particle impaction, allowing the analysis of undiluted epithelial lining fluid (ELF).

Treatable traits: toward precision medicine of chronic airway diseases
European Respiratory Journal, 2016 Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are two prevalent chronic airway diseases that have a high personal and social impact. They likely represent a continuum of different diseases that may share biological mechanisms (i.e.

Two-stage Contextual Transformer-based Convolutional Neural Network for Airway Extraction from CT Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Accurate airway extraction from computed tomography (CT) images is a critical step for planning navigation bronchoscopy and quantitative assessment of airway-related chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The existing methods are challenging to sufficiently segment the airway, especially the high-generation airway, with the constraint of the ...

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022 Background There is increasing evidence of small airway abnormalities in smokers despite normal spirometry. The concavity in the descending limb of the maximum expiratory flow curve (MEFV) is a recognised feature of obstruction and can provide ...

Changes in Breathing Patterns after Surgery in Severe Laryngomalacia
Children, 2021 Background: Most of the studies regarding the surgical treatment of severe laryngomalacia (LM) have been aimed at describing the efficacy of the treatment in terms of improvement of clinical symptoms or anatomical findings.

Evaluation of automated airway morphological quantification for assessing fibrosing lung disease [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Abnormal airway dilatation, termed traction bronchiectasis, is a typical feature of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Volumetric computed tomography (CT) imaging captures the loss of normal airway tapering in IPF. We postulated that automated quantification of airway abnormalities could provide estimates of IPF disease extent and severity.

Early Experiences with Crowdsourcing Airway Annotations in Chest CT [PDF]
LABELS 2016, DLMIA 2016: Deep Learning and Data Labeling for
Medical Applications pp 209-218, 2017 Measuring airways in chest computed tomography (CT) images is important for characterizing diseases such as cystic fibrosis, yet very time-consuming to perform manually. Machine learning algorithms offer an alternative, but need large sets of annotated data to perform well.
