ABSTRACT Objective Describe prenatal imaging characteristics, perinatal and postnatal outcomes in fetuses with isolated macrocystic congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM) undergoing thoracoamniotic shunting (TAS) and expectant management. Methods Retrospective cohort study of 123 fetuses with isolated macrocystic CPAM managed at the Ontario ...

Hyaluronan (HA) Receptors: Discovery, Function & Pathology
ABSTRACT Hyaluronan (HA) is typically a long polymer of the repeating disaccharide, glucuronic acid‐β‐(1‐3)‐N‐acetylglucosamine polymerized by β(1‐4) bonds, with no obvious active site for biological activity. However, this dynamic polymer is vital for life in all metazoans and has a diverse array of functional characteristics due to the proteins that ...

Bronchial carcinoid tumor arising from an intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration
We report a rare case of a 38-year-old woman with a bronchial carcinoid tumor arising from an intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration. The vascular supply to the sequestered left lower lobe originated from the descending thoracic aorta.

Asthma in Children With Congenital Lung Malformations: A Population‐Based Case‐Control Study
ABSTRACT Background Congenital lung malformations (CLM) are developmental anomalies that may predispose to respiratory morbidity. Their association with asthma remains unclear, largely due to small series and the lack of population‐based controls. Objective To evaluate asthma prevalence and related outcomes in children with CLM compared to population ...

Intrauterine Ultrasound-Guided Laser Coagulation as a First Step for Treatment of Prenatally Complicated Bronchopulmonary Sequestration: Our Experience and Literature Review [PDF]
Introduction Prenatal ultrasound-guided laser coagulation (USLC) for complicated bronchopulmonary sequestrations has been described but a consensus on the procedure and on the following management is still lacking. We present our experience and provide a

This review systematically elucidates the multifactorial anti‐aging mechanisms of extracellular vesicles (EVs). By bridging fundamental biology with advanced bioengineering, scalable manufacturing, and clinical translation, it establishes a comprehensive framework for developing next‐generation EVs‐based precision nanotherapeutics to combat systemic ...

ABSTRACT Background Congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAMs) are rare developmental anomalies of the lower respiratory tract. Although their pulmonary and postnatal respiratory implications are well recognized, the possible coexistence of laryngotracheal abnormalities remains poorly investigated.

ABSTRACT Aim To identify congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) volume ratio (CVR) values that can predict the need for early neonatal surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 70 infants diagnosed with congenital cystic lung diseases (CCLD) over the past 10 years at our center (10 with CPAM, 25 with intra‐ and extra‐lobar bronchopulmonary ...
