War injuries of the lungs [PDF]
The authors' experience in the treatment of war injuries of the lungs, gained during the war in Croatia, from August 25, 1991 until July 1, 1995, is presented. In that period, 424 patients with injuries of the lungs were treated at the Split Clinical Hospital.The paper is a retrospective study of 424 wounded persons with lung injuries gained during the

The topical study of inhaled drug (salbutamol) delivery in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Background Our aim was to investigate total and regional lung delivery of salbutamol in subjects with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Methods The TOPICAL study was a 4-period, partially-randomised, controlled, crossover study to investigate four ...

RING finger E3 ligase PPP1R11 regulates TLR2 signaling and innate immunity
Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) is a pattern recognition receptor that recognizes many types of PAMPs that originate from gram-positive bacteria. Here we describe a novel mechanism regulating TLR2 protein expression and subsequent cytokine release through ...

Interleukin-36 Cytokines in Infectious and Non-Infectious Lung Diseases
The IL-36 family of cytokines were identified in the early 2000’s as a new subfamily of the IL-1 cytokine family, and since then, the role of IL-36 cytokines during various inflammatory processes has been characterized.

Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury [PDF]
To the Editor: Slutsky and Ranieri (Nov. 28 issue)(1) note that ventilator-induced lung injury may be minimized by means of lung-protective mechanical ventilation or by avoiding it altogether with the use of extracorporeal life-support techniques(2) such as by extracorporeal removal of carbon dioxide or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO ...

Summary: Acute lung injury (ALI) is linked to mitochondrial injury, resulting in impaired cellular oxygen utilization; however, it is unknown how these events are linked on the molecular level. Cardiolipin, a mitochondrial-specific lipid, is generated by

IntroductionKlebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is a common cause of hospital-acquired pneumonia. Although previous studies have suggested that evasion of phagocytic uptake is a virulence determinant of Kp, few studies have examined phagocytosis sensitivity in ...
