Epigenetic Dysregulation of the NKX2‐1/SPDEF Axis Drives Persistent Goblet Cell Differentiation and Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Respirology, EarlyView.
This study investigated airway epithelial barrier dysfunction persistence in ex‐smokers with COPD and underlying mechanisms using single‐cell RNA and ATAC sequencing. Epigenetic NKX2‐1/SPDEF dysregulation maintains goblet cell hyperplasia and barrier dysfunction despite long‐term smoking cessation.

EFFECT OF NASOTRACHEAL INTUBATION ON NASAL MUCOCILIARY CLEARANCE

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1987
Forty patients were studied to investigate the effect of nasotracheal intubation on nasal mucociliary clearance measured with the radiopaque disc method under standard conditions. Postoperative mucociliary slowing on the intubated side was observed in 65% of patients. Difficult or prolonged intubation increased the incidence of mucociliary stasis. Age,
