Pregnant women with bronchial asthma benefit from progressive muscle relaxation: A randomized, prospective, controlled trial [PDF]

, 2006
Background: Asthma is a serious medical problem in pregnancy and is often associated with stress, anger and poor quality of life. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) on change in blood pressure, lung

BREAK: Bronchi Reconstruction by gEodesic transformation And sKeleton embedding [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Airway segmentation is critical for virtual bronchoscopy and computer-aided pulmonary disease analysis. In recent years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used to delineate the bronchial tree. However, the segmentation results of the CNN-based methods usually include many discontinuous branches, which need manual repair in clinical ...

Polymorphisms in the bradykinin B2 receptor gene and childhood asthma [PDF]

, 2001
Bradykinin has been suggested as one of the key mediators of bronchial asthma. Polymorphisms with a potential functional relevance have been described in the B2 bradykinin receptor gene.

BRONCO: Automated modelling of the bronchovascular bundle using the Computed Tomography Images [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Segmentation of the bronchovascular bundle within the lung parenchyma is a key step for the proper analysis and planning of many pulmonary diseases. It might also be considered the preprocessing step when the goal is to segment the nodules from the lung parenchyma.

In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli [PDF]

Dans Endoscopic Microscopy III, (Guillermo J. Tearney and Thomas D. Wang - Editors) - In vivo endoscopic autofluorescence microspectro-imaging of bronchi and alveoli, San Jose : \'Etats-Unis d'Am\'erique (2008), 2008
Fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy (FCFM) is a new technique that can be used during a bronchoscopy to analyze the nature of the human bronchial and alveolar mucosa fluorescence microstructure. An endoscopic fibered confocal fluorescence microscopy system with spectroscopic analysis capability was developed allowing real-time, simultaneous images
