Local lung responses following endobronchial elastase and lipopolysaccharide instillation in sheep [PDF]

, 2006
Chronic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure may contribute to the pathogenesis of a number of lung diseases including COPD and emphysema. We sought to develop a large-animal model of emphysema using repeated LPS administration into sheep lung segments.

FIBROTIC INTERSTITIAL LUNG DISEASES- A CURRENT OUTLOOK

, 2022
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a group of diffuse parenchymal lung disorders associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. These include a large number of conditions, with a wide range of underlying causes, clinical manifestations, imaging,

Anorectal Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Phenotypes and Functional Patterns

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to characterize specific physiologic defects in anorectal dysfunction in systemic sclerosis (SSc) using anorectal manometry (ARM), evaluate associations with gastrointestinal (GI) and extraintestinal clinical phenotypes, and explore potential serologic markers for risk stratification.

CC-chemokine ligand 18, CXC motif chemokine 13 and osteopontin as biomarkers of silicosis and asbestosis: a prospective observational study

Scientific Reports
Background Silicosis and asbestosis, distinct forms of pneumoconiosis, manifest progressive interstitial fibrosis due to exposure to silica dust or asbestos fibers. This study aimed to identify potential biomarkers for diagnosing silicosis and asbestosis,

Ultrasound Evaluation of Interstitial Lung Disease in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Autoimmune Diseases

The interpretation of lung ultrasound is the result of the analysis of artifacts rather than exact representations of anatomical structures, which appear when changes in the physical properties of the lung occur.

Smoking-related interstitial lung disease [PDF]

, 2011
Cigarette smoking has a clear epidemiological association with lung diseases, characterised by chronic inflammation of both the bronchiolar and the interstitial lung compartments.

Determinants of Body Mass Index in Early Systemic Sclerosis: Implications for Nutritional Risk Stratification

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Gastrointestinal (GI) involvement can lead to malnutrition in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Body mass index (BMI) remains the most widely used marker to screen nutritional status. We aimed to identify predictors of lower BMI in patients with SSc. Methods Patients with SSc from a prospective US cohort meeting 2013 American College of

Smoking-related interstitial lung diseases.

, 2010
In pulmonary pathology, a wide spectrum of morphological changes is related to the consequences of smoking, and recognizing them on surgical specimens and on small transbronchial biopsies represents a challenge for the pathologist.

The lung microbiome in interstitial lung disease

Breathe
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous chronic form of lung disease. The pathogenesis of ILD is poorly understood and a common form of ILD, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is associated with poor prognosis. There is evidence for substantial dysregulated immune responses in ILD.

Adenocarcinoma of the lung mimicking interstitial lung disease

Atypical radiologic and clinical patterns may be observed within subgroups of lung adenocarcinoma. A 74-year-old man with progressive dyspnea and productive cough unresponsive to antibiotherapy showed bilateral interstitial changes in the lung parenchyma
