Nonlinear simulation of mucociliary clearance: A three- dimensional study.

, 2022
In this study three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulation of mucociliary clearance from the lung has been studied. The major thrust of this investigation is 3D simulation of mucociliary clearance accounting for non-linear viscoelastic characteristics of ...

The effects on mucociliary clearance of prednisone associated with bronchial section

Clinics, 2012
OBJECTIVE: Infections have been and remain the major cause of morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation. Because mucociliary clearance plays an important role in human defense mechanisms, the influence of drugs on the mucociliary epithelium of ...

Sputum and mucociliary clearance mechanisms [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1976
Summary Bronchial secretion forms a periciliary liquid layer and may also give rise to thicker secretion that moves on the tips of the cilia. This latter material as collected at bronchoscopy or coughed up as sputum is a viscoelastic substance behaving in a characteristic way over a wide range of shear rates.

The relevance of the application mukoactive preparations in patients with inflammatory pathology of ent organs

Медицинский совет, 2018
The mucous membrane of the respiratory tract is the first line of protection of the human body from various damaging agents. This function is provided by mucociliary clearance and its component by mucociliary transport.
