Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Interleukin 4, but not interleukin 5 or eosinophils, is required in a murine model of acute airway hyperreactivity. [PDF]
Reversible airway hyperreactivity underlies the pathophysiology of asthma, yet the precise mediators of the response remain unclear. Human studies have correlated aberrant activation of T helper (Th) 2-like effector systems in the airways with disease. A

On the Role of Mechanics in Chronic Lung Disease. [PDF]
Progressive airflow obstruction is a classical hallmark of chronic lung disease, affecting more than one fourth of the adult population. As the disease progresses, the inner layer of the airway wall grows, folds inwards, and narrows the lumen.

Ischaemic strokes in patients with pulmonary arteriovenous malformations and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia: associations with iron deficiency and platelets. [PDF]
BackgroundPulmonary first pass filtration of particles marginally exceeding ∼7 µm (the size of a red blood cell) is used routinely in diagnostics, and allows cellular aggregates forming or entering the circulation in the preceding cardiac cycle to lodge ...

ABSTRACT Background Procedures involving lung surgery in the pediatric population are relatively uncommon and tend to be centralized in a limited number of institutions. Anesthesia literature is also sparse. Aims To have a clear overview of frequency, underlying pathologies, ICU and hospital stay, anesthetic techniques, one lung ventilation, and ...
