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.

Environmental Exposures, Chronic Sinusitis, and Olfaction in People With Cystic Fibrosis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Environmental air pollutants may contribute to chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS), but their relationship with upper airway disease in people with cystic fibrosis (CF) remains poorly understood. This study evaluated associations between long‐term ambient air pollutant exposure and CRS severity and olfactory dysfunction in adults with CF ...

Mucociliary clearance in cystic fibrosis: Physiology and pharmacological treatments

, 2011
The understanding of how mutations of the cystic fibrosis gene results in recurrent infection and the development of bronchiectasis is now well established. This review examines aspects of lung pathophysiology specifically, abnormal mucociliary clearance,

Olfactory Function in Cystic Fibrosis: Outcome Measures, Olfactory Dysfunction Prevalence and the Impact of Management—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Olfactory dysfunction (OD) is an increasingly recognized but under‐investigated comorbidity of cystic fibrosis (CF). Its prevalence, assessment methods, and response to CF‐directed treatment, including highly effective modulator therapy (HEMT) remains incompletely characterized.
