BRONCHITIS AND EMPHYSEMA

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1957
Bronchitis proper is a distinct entity from emphysema. Causal relationship between them is exceptional rather than usual. Severe bronchitis and diffuse pulmonary emphysema are to a large extent incompatible. Simple chronic bronchitis is a common trivial disease of the central tracheobronchial tree.

Effects of emphysema on physiological and prognostic characteristics of lung function in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Respirology (Carlton South. Print), 2018
Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) is characterized by preserved lung volume and slower lung function decline. However, it is unclear at what extent emphysema begins to impact respiratory physiology and prognostic characteristics in ...

Fibrosis with emphysema

Histopathology, 2010
Wright J L, Tazelaar H D & Churg A (2011) Histopathology 58, 517–524
Fibrosis with emphysemaThe concept of fibrosis with emphysema is confused by the existence of two very different clinical/pathological scenarios: first, cases in which a diffuse fibrosing interstitial pneumonia, most commonly usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), occurs in a patient

Proteases and emphysema

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2005
The protease-antiprotease theory of emphysema is widely accepted, but exactly which cells/proteases play a role continues to be a controversial subject.Reports in humans show increased metalloproteinase activity in emphysema, but the exact role of metalloproteinases remains unclear.

The emphysema problem

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1968
Summary There is no doubt that the clinical presentation of patients suffering from chronic and severe irreversible airways obstruction is far from uniform. Among others, two distinct clinical patterns emerge, one being associated with severe anatomical emphysema at necropsy and the other with little or none.

Vitamin A and Emphysema

2007
Within the last several years, research scientists and clinicians have been intrigued with the potential use of an active form of vitamin A, retinoic acid (RA), for the treatment and prevention of emphysema. The interest in this area can be largely attributed to the work of Massaro and Massaro (1996, 1997, 2000) in which they presented evidence that RA

Emphysema and Hypertension

Journal of Asthma Research, 1966
The relationship between chronic obstructive pulrnonary emphysema and systemic arterial hypertension has long been a controversial subject among clinicians. Some have observed a decreased incidence of hypertension among patients with pulmonary emphysema, while others have noted no constant association.

CT of emphysema

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2002
This article focuses on three main topics: (1) the importance of emphysema as a serious respiratory disease, (2) qualitative assessment of emphysema using CT, and (3) the emerging importance of quantitative CT in the evaluation of patients with emphysema for surgery and drug therapy. CT also can identify the major anatomic subtypes of emphysema.

The Prevention of Emphysema

Chest, 1974
T he load of disability and illness imposed on the Western industrialized nations by chronic bronchitis and emphysema is well known. I have chosen to talk on the topic of the prevention of emphysema because I think it is the central problem in relation to these diseases, and because serious and disabling chronic lung disease seems to involve ...
