Multidisciplinary Management of Tracheal Perforation: A Case of Successful Reconstruction and Stenting

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
We present the case of a 67‐year‐old man with papillary thyroid carcinoma who developed a tracheocutaneous fistula following proton beam therapy and chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Airway repair and recanalization were successfully achieved through a combined surgical and bronchoscopic approach.

Atypical Spread With Lung Shrinkage and Cystic Changes in Bilateral Lepidic Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
During chemotherapy including osimertinib, a stepwise transition was observed from bilaterally symmetrical ground‐glass nodules of lepidic adenocarcinoma with epidermal growth factor receptor mutations to extensive cystic changes, accompanied by lung shrinkage manifested as traction bronchiectasis.

Comparison between cigarette smoke-induced emphysema and cigarette smoke extract-induced emphysema [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Emphysema is the main pathological feature of COPD and also is the focus of the related research. Although several emphysema animal models have been established, exact comparison of findings is seldom.

Opportunistic Chest CT‐Derived Body Composition for Predicting 90‐Day Adverse Outcomes After Hospitalization for Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesThe Clinical Respiratory Journal, Volume 20, Issue 7, July 2026.
Using routinely acquired chest CT and admission clinical data, this study developed and temporally validated a model for 90‐day readmission or death after AECOPD hospitalization. Opportunistic CT‐derived body‐composition metrics, especially intermuscular adipose tissue, may add prognostic information beyond conventional clinical scores.

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 23, 19 June 2026.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

Pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The current paradigm for the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is that chronic airflow limitation results from an abnormal inflammatory response to inhaled particles and gases in the lung. Airspace inflammation appears to be different

Clinical Profiles and Therapeutic Interventions in Occult Paraquat Poisoning: A Comparative Report of Two Cases

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Delayed diagnosis invariably worsens outcomes in occult paraquat poisoning regardless of exposure route. Implement early urinary screening for suspected cases. Tailor antioxidant and anti‐fibrotic timing to toxicokinetic patterns to mitigate irreversible pulmonary damage.
