A data analytic model to determine regional variation of asthma incidence and other chronic obstructive lung diseases in Oman

Healthcare Analytics, 2022
This study examines how asthma and other chronic obstructive lung diseases vary in different regions. Information pertaining influence of region as a proxy for the environment on asthma is not well established, yet important for healthcare, travel, and ...

Systematic Review of Exposure to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Obstructive Lung Disease [PDF]

Journal of Health and Pollution, 2021
Background. There is fast-growing epidemiologic evidence of the effects of environmental chemicals on respiratory health. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been linked with airway obstruction common in asthma and/or asthma exacerbation, and ...

Generation of two hiPSC lines (MHHi016-A, MHHi016-B) from a primary ciliary dyskinesia patient carrying a homozygous 5 bp duplication (c.248_252dup (p.Gly85Cysfs*11)) in exon 1 of the CCNO gene

Stem Cell Research, 2020
Cyclin O (CCNO) is involved in cell cycle regulation and mutations of CCNO are linked to the rare genetic disease primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD).

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line (MHHi018-A) from a patient with Cystic Fibrosis carrying p.Asn1303Lys (N1303K) mutation

Stem Cell Research, 2020
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene which encodes for a chloride ion channel regulating the balance of salt and water across secretory epithelia.

Diet and Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]

Epidemiologic 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 ...

Sleep and Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]

Sleep 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

Epidemiology, genetics, and subtyping of preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) in COPDGene. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundPreserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm), defined as a reduced FEV1 in the setting of a preserved FEV1/FVC ratio, is highly prevalent and is associated with increased respiratory symptoms, systemic inflammation, and mortality.
