Rapid Serological Detection of Anti‐GM‐CSF Autoantibodies in Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Using a Novel Immunochromatographic Test

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
We developed a novel ICT with high clinical performance that can distinguish APAP patients from those with other pulmonary diseases. The rapid and simple detection of GMAbs in serum provided a new practical method for the diagnosis of APAP. ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Anti‐GM‐CSF autoantibodies (GMAbs) are essential biomarkers for diagnosing ...

Combination of 3D Micro Contact Printing and Scraping Technique for Site Selective Cocultivation Across a Porous Micro Structured Scaffold

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
The study by Brauer et al. presents an operationally simple scraping technique in combination with 3D‐µCP to generate 3D cell patterns on both, front and the reverse side of a micro thermoformed substrate. It can be used to study cell‐to‐cell crosstalk at the microlevel with topographies similar to real tissue. Abstract 3D‐microcontact printing (3D‐µCP)

Deciphering the Heterogeneity of Pulmonary Macrophages in Response to Fine Particles

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study introduces a dual‐labeled gold nanoparticle model to capture particle–responsive cells via integrating fluorescence‐activated cell sorting and single‐cell RNA sequencing. Fourteen macrophage subsets are identified with response and function heterogeneity, among which AMs_3, AMs_7, and recMacs_4 subsets show stronger phagocytic activation ...

Absolute electrical impedance tomography (aEIT) guided ventilation therapy in critical care patients: simulations and future trends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Thoracic electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a noninvasive, radiation-free monitoring technique whose aim is to reconstruct a cross-sectional image of the internal spatial distribution of conductivity from electrical measurements made by injecting ...

Recent advances of non‐invasive sensors for smart wearable respiratory monitoring

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Respiration contains rich physiological and pathological information, making it one of the most fundamental and continuous vital signs. Respiration monitoring is a non‐invasive and simple, but incredibly powerful, tool for assessing health, managing disease, and tracking fitness.
