Diffuse Alveolar Haemorrhage: A Single Centre Experience
Nepalese Medical Journal, 2019 Introduction: Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage results from an accumulation of red blood cells into the alveolar space. Symptoms of alveolar hemorrhage are dyspnea, hemoptysis, anemia, diffuse pulmonary infiltrates and hypoxemic respiratory failure. Diagnosis

Cytokine release syndrome after bronchoalveolar lavage
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023 Background Immunosuppressed bone marrow transplant patients with pulmonary infiltrates routinely undergo bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) to investigate potential etiologies.

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1994 Bronchoalveolar lavage has a well established role in the diagnosis of pulmonary infections, particularly those due to opportunistic organisms in an immunocompromised host. Recent studies of infants and adults with inflammatory lung disease have helped our understanding of the mechanisms underlying these disorders and their responses to treatment. With

Use of nested PCR for the detection of trichomonads in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019 Background The methods routinely used to detect trichomonads in the lungs are not sensitive enough, and an effective method is urgently needed. Method Primers were first designed to match the conserved area of the 18S rRNA gene of trichomonads.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.
