Development of a Multi-Task Learning V-Net for Pulmonary Lobar Segmentation on Computed Tomography and Application to Diseased Lungs [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Automated lobar segmentation allows regional evaluation of lung disease and is important for diagnosis and therapy planning. Advanced statistical workflows permitting such evaluation is a needed area within respiratory medicine; their adoption remains slow, with poor workflow accuracy. Diseased lung regions often produce high-density zones on CT images,

Multimedia Respiratory Database (RespiratoryDatabase@TR): Auscultation Sounds and Chest X-rays [PDF]
Natural and Engineering Sciences, 2017, 2021 Auscultation is a method for diagnosis of especially internal medicine diseases such as cardiac, pulmonary and cardio-pulmonary by listening the internal sounds from the body parts. It is the simplest and the most common physical examination in the assessment processes of the clinical skills.

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.

Type 2 responses determine skin rash during recombinant interleukin-2 therapy
Journal of ImmunotoxicologyThe skin is the organ most often affected by adverse drug reactions. Although these cutaneous adverse drug reactions (CADRs) often are mild, they represent a major burden for patients.

A Systems Engineering Approach to Modeling and Analysis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disease characterized by airflow limitation. This study develops a systems engineering framework for representing important mechanistic details of COPD in a model of the cardio-respiratory system.

Noninvasive ventilation and obstructive lung diseases [PDF]
European Respiratory Journal, 2001 The key role of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) is well documented in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) since it may avoid endotrachal intubation in >50% of cases when used as the initial treatment. However, currently only minimal data is available to assess usefulness of NPPV
