Measuring pulmonary function in COPD using quantitative chest computed tomography analysis
European Respiratory Review, 2021 COPD is diagnosed and evaluated by pulmonary function testing (PFT). Chest computed tomography (CT) primarily serves a descriptive role for diagnosis and severity evaluation.

Absolute electrical impedance tomography (aEIT) guided ventilation therapy in critical care patients: simulations and future trends [PDF]
, 2010 Thoracic electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive, radiation-free monitoring technique whose aim is to reconstruct a cross-sectional image of the internal spatial distribution of conductivity from electrical measurements made by injecting ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Bronchial Circulation Angiogenesis in the Rat Quantified with SPECT and Micro-CT [PDF]
, 2008 Introduction As pulmonary artery obstruction results in proliferation of the bronchial circulation in a variety of species, we investigated this angiogenic response using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and micro-CT.

Does Global Lung Initiative Obviate the Need for Lung Volume Measurements? [PDF]
Respiratory Care, 2017 Establishing the diagnosis of restrictive lung disease is often difficult and requires extensive testing not only to diagnose but also to accurately classify the underlying disease. Current clinical practice often involves an initial screening with spirometry and a subsequent measurement of ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...
