Mechanisms altering airway smooth muscle cell Ca(2+) homeostasis in two asthma models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: Asthma is characterized by airway remodeling, altered mucus production and airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) contraction causing extensive airway narrowing. In particular, alterations of ASMC contractility seem to be of crucial importance. The

Biologics Adoption in CRSwNP and the Associated Decline in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: A Longitudinal Claims Database Study

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biologic treatments were introduced for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) in 2019. Treatment algorithms for medically refractory CRSwNP remain open, with patients choosing among surgery, biologics, or both. Real‐world utilization of surgery and biologics remains incompletely characterized.

Dyspnea from exercise in cold air is not always asthma

open access: yes, 2008
In the absence of other explanations, exercise-induced dyspnea is often labeled as a manifestation of asthma. The aim of this study was to use exercise provocation in cold air among patients with exercise-induced dyspnea, but without any ...

Cognitive Dysfunction in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive dysfunction is increasingly recognized as an extra‐nasal manifestation of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This scoping review characterizes the primary evidence on cognition in adult CRS, covering measures, treatment response, and incident dementia.

Poly(I:C)‐Activated Nasal Fibroblasts Promote Eosinophil Recruitment in CRSwNP

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is characterized by persistent mucosal inflammation and eosinophilic infiltration. Although epithelial and immune cells have been widely studied, the role of nasal fibroblasts in innate immune activation and eosinophil recruitment remains unclear.

Reframing the Gut–Brain Axis: The Gut Wall as a Neural Immune Interface in Multiple Sclerosis and Autoimmune Neurological Diseases

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Gut wall physiology in multiple sclerosis (MS) and autoimmune neurologic diseases remains underexplored but may span gut barrier dysfunction, enteric glial targeting, mucosal immune dysregulation, and autoimmune targets within the enteric nervous system (ENS).

Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.
