Emphysema formation in a never-smoker with scleroderma-related interstitial pneumonia

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2018
We report a case of pathological emphysema formation in a never-smoker with scleroderma-related interstitial pneumonia. We realized the importance of pulmonary vasculopathy causing the coexistence of emphysema and fibrosis in scleroderma.

Computed tomography of the equine temporohyoid joint: Association between imaging changes and potential risk factors

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Temporohyoid osteoarthropathy (THO) is characterised by bone proliferation and cartilage ossification caused by infectious and degenerative conditions, amongst others. Objectives To describe the variable appearance of the temporohyoid joint (THJ) on computed tomography (CT) and investigate associations between CT changes and ...

Interval identification of natural effects in the presence of outcome-related unmeasured confounding [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
With reference to a binary outcome and a binary mediator, we derive identification bounds for natural effects under a reduced set of assumptions. Specifically, no assumptions about confounding are made that involve the outcome; we only assume no unobserved exposure-mediator confounding as well as a condition termed partially constant cross-world ...

Protective effects of neutrophil serine protease inhibition against ischemia–reperfusion injury in lung or heart transplantation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A major complication of organ transplantation is primary graft dysfunction, which represents the leading cause of early post‐transplantation morbidity and mortality. Pre‐operative depletion of neutrophil serine proteases in circulating neutrophils by pretreatment with a cathepsin C inhibitor in recipients could prevent early post‐operative ...
