Impact of Letermovir on Voriconazole Concentrations in Lung Transplant Patients
Concomitant letermovir was associated with lower voriconazole exposure and reduced attainment of commonly used efficacy thresholds in lung transplant recipients. Routine therapeutic drug monitoring after letermovir initiation is recommended, and empiric voriconazole dose escalation may be needed to avoid subtherapeutic exposure. ABSTRACT Background The

Endotoxins and Biological Implications—Review
Graphical overview of endotoxin sources, exposure routes, biological effects, detection methods, and routes of elimination. ABSTRACT Endotoxins, also known as lipopolysaccharides (LPSs), are structural components of the outer membrane of Gram‐negative bacteria and some cyanobacteria.

The effects of 2100‐MHz radiofrequency radiation on nasal mucosa and mucociliary clearance in rats
BackgroundNasal mucociliary clearance has an important role in voiding the airways from inhaled foreign substances. This activity could be disturbed by environmental factors such as radiofrequency radiation.

International Collaboration in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
ABSTRACT Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) exemplifies how international collaboration can transform the study of a rare disease. Since the identification of the first PCD‐associated genes in 1999–2002, parallel developments in Europe and North America, driven by patient organizations, academic investigators, and coordinated funding initiatives, have ...

Scintigraphic evaluation of nasal mucociliary activity in unilateral chronic otitis media
Mucociliary clearance is a key defence mechanism in human upper and lower airways. Although mucociliary activity is present in both ears of the patients, most cases of chronic otitis media are ...

Effects of methylxanthines on airway mucociliary function
Mucociliary interaction and hence mucus clearance in the airways is governed by ciliary activity and the depth and rheologic properties of periciliary fluid and mucus.

Studies of mucociliary clearance, cough and forced expiration in patients with lung disease [PDF]
Mucociliary clearance is one of the lungs' non-specific host defence mechanisms and together with cough helps to keep the conducting airways clean even when exposed to a polluted atmosphere.
