Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

Impact of Achromobacter xylosoxidans isolation on the respiratory function of adult patients with cystic fibrosis

ERJ Open Research, 2019
Background The prevalence of Achromobacter xylosoxidans lung isolation in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients has increased, but the impact on lung function is controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term effects of A.
