Infections of the airway [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Anesthesia, 2009
SummaryInfections of the airway in children may present to the anesthetist as an emergency in several locations: the Emergency Department, the Operating Department or on Intensive Care. In all of these locations, relevant and up to date knowledge of presentations, diagnoses, potential complications and clinical management will help the anesthetist and ...

Airway Mucus and Asthma: The Role of MUC5AC and MUC5B

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2017
Asthma is characterized by mucus abnormalities. Airway epithelial hyperplasia and metaplasia result in changes in stored and secreted mucin and the production of a pathologic mucus gel.

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

Dismantling airway disease with the use of new pulmonary function indices

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2019
We are currently limited in our abilities to diagnose, monitor disease status and manage chronic airway disease like asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Conventional lung function measures often poorly reflect patient symptoms or are

Exploration of the sputum methylome and omics deconvolution by quadratic programming in molecular profiling of asthma and COPD: the road to sputum omics 2.0

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2020
Background To date, most studies involving high-throughput analyses of sputum in asthma and COPD have focused on identifying transcriptomic signatures of disease. No whole-genome methylation analysis of sputum cells has been performed yet.

Ammonia Dynamics in the Human Body: Insights in Biomedical Sensing Technologies

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
Ammonia (NH3) is a significant biomarker in diagnostics, affecting the respiratory system, stomach, liver, kidneys, bladder, and gastrointestinal tract. NH3 detection, using sensors, has the potential to improve medical diagnosis. This review examines recent advancements in NH3 sensing technologies and explores future research directions, including ...

CCL4 Affects Eosinophil Survival via the Shedding of the MUC1 N-Terminal Domain in Airway Inflammation

open access: yesCells
Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS), a CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration with type 2 inflammation and is highly associated with bronchial asthma.

Cadmium in tobacco smokers: a neglected link to lung disease?

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2018
Cadmium in tobacco smoke may contribute to the development of pulmonary emphysema. However, there is poor understanding of the mechanisms behind the pathogenic role of cadmium in this and other smoking-related lung diseases.

Prostaglandin D2 metabolites activate asthmatic patient-derived type 2 innate lymphoid cells and eosinophils via the DP2 receptor

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2021
Background Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) signaling via prostaglandin D2 receptor 2 (DP2) contributes to atopic and non-atopic asthma. Inhibiting DP2 has shown therapeutic benefit in certain subsets of asthma patients, improving eosinophilic airway inflammation.

VISUALIZATION OF AIRWAY

open access: yesActa Clinica Croatica, 2016
The author provides an overview of the history of optical instruments for airway management in anesthesiology. It systematically demonstrates the development of laryngoscope down to the present time when video laryngoscope has been introduced in clinical practice.
