Interstitial lung disease

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2012
Pulmonary fibrosis is a devastating disease that affects millions of people worldwide. Among the most common forms of lung fibrosis are idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and scleroderma-related interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). Despite a wealth of literature regarding each of these diseases, studies that directly compare IPF and SSc-ILD are rare ...

Cystic lung disease

Radiología (English Edition), 2022
The term cystic lung disease encompasses a heterogeneous group of entities characterised by round lung lesions that correspond to cysts with fine walls, which usually contain air. The differential diagnosis of these lesions can be challenging, requiring both clinical and radiological perspectives.

Breathomics in Lung Disease

Chest, 2015
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are produced by virtually all metabolic processes of the body. As such, they have potential to serve as noninvasive metabolic biomarkers. Since exhaled VOCs are either derived from the respiratory tract itself or have passed the lungs from the circulation, they are candidate biomarkers in the diagnosis and monitoring ...

Eosinophilic Lung Disease

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2008
Eosinophilic lung diseases comprise eosinophilic pneumonia, which may present with chronic or acute onset, or as Löffler syndrome. The diagnosis of eosinophilic pneumonia relies on clinical imaging and the demonstration of alveolar eosinophilia. Lung biopsy is generally not necessary.

Lung Diseases

2018
Inflammasomes are large innate cytoplasmic complexes that play a major role in promoting inflammation in the lung in response to a range of environmental and infectious stimuli. Inflammasomes are critical for driving acute innate immune responses that resolve infection and maintain tissue homeostasis.

Carnosine and Lung Disease

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2020
Carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) is a small dipeptide with numerous activities, including antioxidant effects, metal ion chelation, proton buffering capacity, and inhibitory effects on protein carbonylation and glycation. Carnosine has been mostly studied in organs where it is abundant, including skeletal muscle, cerebral cortex, kidney, spleen, and ...

Lung Development and Adult Lung Diseases

Chest, 2007
Adult respiratory diseases are caused by many factors, including genetic-environmental interaction. Genetic abnormalities can impact early fetal lung development, postnatal lung maturation, as well as adult lung injury and repair. Studies suggest that abnormally developed lung structure and function may contribute as a susceptibility factor for several

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2004
Lung transplantation remains the only therapeutic option shown to improve survival for many end-stage interstitial lung diseases. Although idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is the most common indication, transplantation has been performed for many other diseases.

BAGASSE DISEASE OF THE LUNGS

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1944
Bagasse is the product remaining after extraction of sugar from sugar cane. This material is commonly baled and if not used immediately may remain exposed in the field for some months before being converted, by processing, into insulating and acoustic board. Workers employed in the breaking of these bales sometimes acquire a respiratory illness.

Interstitial Lung Disease and Lung Transplantation

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2010
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias and carries the worst prognosis. Currently the best treatment option is lung transplantation. Historically patients with IPF had poor outcomes following referral for lung transplant due to high waiting-list mortality. The introduction of the lung allocation
