Measurement of the interbronchial angle in acute viral bronchiolitis [PDF]
Acute viral bronchiolitis (AVB) is the most common infection of the lower airways in children under 2 years of age. Attempts to determine the severity of the disease based on clinical and radiological manifestations are a major challenge. Measurements of the anatomy of the trachea, main bronchi and bronchioles are not limited to pure anthropometry, but

Dendritic cells in viral bronchiolitis
Dendritic cells (DCs) are major antigen-presenting cells that constitute a link between innate and adaptive immune responses, and are critical in the processes of control and elimination of viral infections. On the other hand, there is a large body of data strongly implicating respiratory viruses in morbidity during infancy through the induction of ...

Toll‐interacting protein polymorphisms in viral bronchiolitis outcomes [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundToll‐interacting protein is a key factor in regulating innate immunity responses via gatekeeping Toll‐like receptors. Genetic variance in innate immunity has been linked with susceptibility to infections. Children with viral bronchiolitis in infancy are at increased risk of later asthma.
