Could Eosinophilia predict clinical severity in nasal polyps?

Multidisciplinary Respiratory Medicine, 2017
Background Although nasal polyps are one of the most frequent diseases, their etiopathogenesis remains unclear.Since eosinophils are the main inflammatory cells in the substantial proportion of nasal polyp tissues, they are considered potentially ...

Sputum or blood eosinophil association with clinical measures of COPD severity in the SPIROMICS cohort

The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, 2017
Background Eosinophils in blood and sputum in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been associated with more frequent exacerbations, lower lung function, and corticosteroid responsiveness. We hypothesized increased eosinophils are associated

Developing and Evaluating a Laboratory‐Based Frailty Index (FI‐Lab) for the Prediction of Long‐Term Health Outcomes in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective We aimed to construct and evaluate the first laboratory‐based frailty index (FI‐Lab) for predicting adverse outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to compare its predictive ability to that of an existing clinical frailty index (FI).

The Neutralization of the Eosinophil Peroxidase Antibody Accelerates Eosinophilic Mucin Decomposition

Cells, 2023
Eosinophilic airway inflammation, complicated by bronchial asthma and eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis (ECRS), is difficult to treat. The disease may become refractory when eosinophilic mucin associated with eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) and ...

Ultrasmall Platinum Nanoparticles for Radiation‐Enhanced Cancer Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work proposes a nanomedicine‐based strategy to enhance X‐ray radiotherapy for cancer treatment. Ultrasmall Pt‐NPs exhibit catalase‐like activity that may contribute to modulation of the tumor microenvironment and amplify interactions between radiation and biological matter, leading to increased DNA damage.

The evaluation of eosinophil-to-lymphocyte, eosinophil-toneutrophil, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios in adults with allergic/non-allergic rhinitis

Gülhane Tıp Dergisi, 2023
Aims:This study investigated the usefulness of inflammatory parameters such as eosinophilto-lymphocyte ratio (ELR), eosinophil-to-neutrophil ratio (ENR), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios (NLR) as markers for the diagnosis of patients with allergic ...
