Animal Models and Treatment of Pulmonary Fibrosis: Pharmacogenetic and Nonpharmacogenetic
International Journal of Clinical Practice, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Pulmonary fibrosis is a significant lung injury caused by multiple factors that profoundly affect the human quality of life. Currently, various animal models are used to understand the aetiology of pulmonary fibrosis and develop treatments. However, only pharmacogenetic models of pulmonary fibrosis have been discussed, and there have been no reviews of

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 4316-4325, December 2025.A study of 660 heart failure patients (mean age 76.1) found that polypharmacy was common, with only 5% discharged without it, and 60% had died by the end of a median 2.9‐year follow‐up. In patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), hyperpolypharmacy was associated with significantly higher mortality, while in those with ...

Microplastics in Human Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid
Respirology, Volume 30, Issue 12, Page 1141-1152, December 2025.We established a microplastic detection method using bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. The method detected microplastics, particularly those under 10 μm, in all patients, linked to lung and systemic inflammation. The potential relationship between microplastics and lung and systemic inflammation provides a foundation for larger studies on their health ...
