Update on Non‐Biological and RNA‐Based Therapeutics in Chronic Inflammatory Diseases: Precision Medicine Through Small Molecules: An EAACI Position Paper

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the last decades, critical advancements in research technology and knowledge on disease mechanisms steered therapeutic approaches for chronic inflammatory diseases towards unprecedented target specificity. For allergic and chronic lung diseases, biologic drugs pioneered this goal, acquiring on the way—through the clinical use of monoclonal ...

Airway Complications from an Esophageal Foreign Body

open access: yesCase Reports in Pulmonology, 2016
Introduction. Foreign body impaction (FBI) in the esophagus can be a serious condition, which can have a high mortality among children and adults, if appropriate diagnosis and treatment are not instituted urgently. 80–90% of all foreign bodies trapped in

Polypropylene Nanoplastic Exposure to Respiratory Epithelial Barrier‐On‐Chip and Interfacial Interactions With Human Serum Albumin

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Exposure to 305 nm PP NPs significantly disrupts the airway barrier‐on‐chip, reducing TEER, suppressing ZO‐1/ACE2 expression, and triggering ROS‐mediated apoptosis. In biological media, PP NPs exhibit a biphasic adsorption pattern, leading to the formation of a protein corona that increases their size to 364 nm.

Sugammadex vs. neostigmine and the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures: a propensity score matched analysis of 15,730 patients

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Postoperative pulmonary complications after upper gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures under general anaesthesia are clinically important and may be exacerbated by residual neuromuscular block. We evaluated whether antagonism of neuromuscular block with sugammadex rather than neostigmine is associated with improved respiratory ...

Peri‐oesophageal metastases of pulmonary adenocarcinoma presenting as dysphagia in a dog

open access: yesAustralian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Primary pulmonary neoplasia represents approximately one percent of canine cancers. Although it is recognised that many of these cases may not display classic respiratory signs, dysphagia is not an expected presentation. This report describes a twelve‐year‐old Border Collie that presented with a history of progressive dysphagia and weight loss over ...

The lung is more than an organ of gas exchange: immunocompetency, platelets and implications for drug discovery

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract The lungs have for a long time been recognised as having pharmacological significance as a specific organ to modulate the pharmacokinetics of endogenous substances needed to maintain homeostasis. The lungs are therefore the site of action of certain drugs that act on these homeostatic processes, resulting in systemic effects on the ...

Pediatric Upper Airway Obstruction

open access: yesMedEdPORTAL, 2015
Introduction When a child presents with an upper airway foreign body, a physician may have seconds to minutes to implement proper treatment. We present an actual case of an infant who presented to an adult emergency department with near-complete upper ...

Processionary Moth Exposure in Europe: Toxic–Irritant and Immunoglobulin E‐Mediated Endotypes, Diagnosis and Management

open access: yesClinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
Most reactions are toxic–irritant, driven by epithelial injury and neuro‐inflammatory activation. IgE‐mediated allergy is less common but may cause immediate systemic reactions. Endotype differentiation guides diagnosis, risk stratification and management.

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Ultrasonography-Assisted Foreign Body Removal – Intraoperative Sonology: Expanding the Horizons of Anaesthesiologists

open access: yesAirway
Tracheo-oesophageal foreign bodies (FBs) have been routinely tackled with endoscopy by ear-nose-throat surgeons. A 52-year-old male patient with a history of fish bone ingestion 20 days back came with acute swelling and pain in the right submandibular ...
