Both T and B cells are indispensable for the development of a PBMC transfer-induced humanized mouse model for SSc

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2022
Background Recently, a novel humanized mouse model for systemic sclerosis (SSc) was established by transferring peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from patients with SSc to Rag2 −/− Il2rg −/− immunodeficient mice. Here, we aimed to investigate the

Bone mineral density and chronic lung disease mortality: the Rotterdam study [PDF]

, 2014
Context: Low bone mineral density (BMD) has been associated with increased all-cause mortality. Cause-specific mortality studies have been controversial. Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate associations between BMD and all-cause mortality

Lung Ultrasonography in the Evaluation of Late Sequelae of COVID-19 Pneumonia—A Comparison with Chest Computed Tomography: A Prospective Study

Viruses
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic allowed physicians to gain experience in lung ultrasound (LUS) during the acute phase of the disease. However, limited data are available on LUS findings during the recovery phase.

Comorbidities in unclassifiable interstitial lung disease

Respiratory Research, 2022
Background Comorbidities are common in interstitial lung diseases (ILD) and have an important association with survival, but the frequency and prognostic impact of comorbidities in unclassifiable interstitial lung disease (uILD) remains elusive. We aimed

Agricultural lung diseases.

Environmental Health Perspectives, 2000
Agriculture is considered one of the most hazardous occupations. Organic dusts and toxic gases constitute some of the most common and potentially disabling occupational and environmental hazards. The changing patterns of agriculture have paradoxically contributed to both improved working conditions and increased exposure to respiratory hazards.

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.
