The cervical mucus plug: Structured review of the literature

Acta Obstetricia Et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2009
AbstractThe cervical mucus plug is a large, complex structure within the cervical canal that is shed shortly before or during labor. We propose that the cervical mucus plug fulfills critical ‘gate‐keeper’ functions based on its physical and immunologic properties, which help prevent ascending infection and preterm labor.

Antimicrobial factors in the cervical mucus plug

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2002
The cervical mucus plug is positioned between the microbe-rich vagina and the normally sterile uterine cavity, which suggests a host defense function, but few relevant data are available. We analyzed the composition and antimicrobial activity of cervical mucus plugs.Cervical mucus plugs were collected from healthy women at delivery.

Tension ball valve mucus plug in asthma

The American Journal of Medicine, 1985
This report describes a patient with status asthmaticus and respiratory failure in whom profound hypoxemia developed during mechanical ventilation. During the hypoxemic episode, breath sounds were absent over the left lung, and chest radiography revealed a hyperlucent left hemithorax with tension shift of the mediastinum to the right.

Effect of Benralizumab on Mucus Plugs in Severe Eosinophilic Asthma

International Archives of Allergy and Immunology, 2023
Introduction: Mucus plugs are associated with airway obstruction in severe asthma and are involved in the formation of activated eosinophils. Benralizumab, an anti-interleukin-5 receptor antibody, markedly reduces not only peripheral blood eosinophils but also airway eosinophils; however, its effects on mucus plugs have not been clarified.

The Problem of Mucus Plugging in Children with Asthma

Journal of Asthma, 1985
The problem of mucus plugging of the lung was evaluated in 73 asthmatic children who had suffered a total of 187 episodes. The condition presented in young children, mostly with severe asthma, without any specific precipitating factor other than a severe attack of wheezing.

Mucus plugging as a cause of acute lobar overdistension

Pediatric Emergency Care, 2001
Acute lobar overdistension in children is usually indicative of foreign body aspiration, especially when a history of a choking episode is recalled. An unusual presentation of asthma as recurrent overdistension of the left lung in a toddler is described.
