Sleep and Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesSleep Medicine Clinics, 2008
Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are common obstructive lung diseases affecting millions of people in the United States. As sleep disorders are also common, it is not surprising that many people with obstructive lung disease also suffer from sleep disorders. However, people with COPD and those with asthma have worse sleep quality

Multifaceted Roles of Ferroptosis in Lung Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Ferroptosis is a distinct type of programmed cell death (PCD) that depends on iron and is characterized by the accumulation of intracellular iron, exhaustion of glutathione, deactivation of glutathione peroxidase, and promotion of lipid peroxidation ...

Diet and Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesEpidemiologic Reviews, 2001
The results presented in this review suggest that the impact of nutrition on obstructive lung disease is most evident for antioxidant vitamins, particularly vitamin C and, to a lesser extent, vitamin E. By decreasing oxidant insults to the lung, antioxidants could modulate the development of chronic lung diseases and lung function decrement ...

Deep learning-based quantification of NAFLD/NASH progression in human liver biopsies

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) affects about 24% of the world's population. Progression of early stages of NAFLD can lead to the more advanced form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and ultimately to cirrhosis or liver cancer.

Acute Phase Proteins as Early Predictors for Immunotherapy Response in Advanced NSCLC: An Explorative Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
In the last decade, targeting the immune system became a promising therapy in advanced lung cancer stages. However, in a clinical follow-up, patient responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors widely differ.

Guanylyl cyclase activation reverses resistive breathing–induced lung injury and inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Inspiratory resistive breathing (RB), encountered in obstructive lung diseases, induces lung injury. The soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway is down-regulated in chronic and acute animal models of RB, such as ...

Palliative care for people with non-malignant lung disease: summary of current evidence and future direction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: The physical and psychosocial needs of patients with chronic non-malignant lung disease are comparable to those with lung cancer. This article will focus on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, interstitial lung disease and cystic fibrosis ...
