Role of Lung Microbiome in Innate Immune Response Associated With Chronic Lung Diseases
Frontiers in Medicine, 2020 Respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung fibrosis, and lung cancer, pose a huge socio-economic burden on society and are one of the leading causes of death worldwide.

Chest, 1989 Lung disease is common in the tropics; lower respiratory tract infections are a major cause of mortality, especially in children under 5 years of age. The World Health Organization has launched strategies to tackle this killer of children. Infections, including tuberculosis and drug-resistant tuberculosis, find vulnerable hosts in the tropics where ...

Occupational lung disease [PDF]
Journal of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, 2013 Occupational medicine represents the interface between work and health. As such, its breadth encompasses issues of clinical medicine, epidemiology, occupational hygiene, toxicology, ethics, and the law. The diagnosis of an occupational lung disease has implications not only for the health of the worker, but also in some circumstances for the health of

Histology and histopathology, 2016 Telocytes (TCs) represent a new distinct type of interstitial cells found in many organs, including lungs. TCs are mainly defined by a small cellular body from which arise very long (hundreds of micrometers) extensions named telopodes. During the last years, TCs were characterized in respect with their microRNA profiles, gene features and proteome ...

Entropy Production and the Pressure-Volume Curve of the Lung [PDF]
, 2015 We investigate analytically the production of entropy during a breathing cycle in healthy and diseased lungs. First, we calculate entropy production in healthy lungs by applying the laws of thermodynamics to the well-known transpulmonary pressure-volume ($P-V$) curves of the lung under the assumption that lung tissue behaves as an entropy spring-like ...
