Intravenous lanadelumab for the treatment of moderately ill COVID‐19 patients

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Kallikrein‐kinin system (KKS) dysregulation is hypothesized to play a pathogenetic role in COVID‐19‐associated pulmonary oedema. To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous lanadelumab, a monoclonal antibody that inhibits plasma kallikrein, in COVID‐19, we conducted a phase 2, open‐label, randomized‐controlled, proof‐of‐concept ...

Pulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis

Journal of the Dow University of Health Sciences, 2010
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is a rare disorder. It is characterized by accumulation of calciumphosphate (microlith) within the alveoli. Knowledge of this condition is important because radiologicallyit mimics miliary tuberculosis that can ...

Anaesthetic Challenges in Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis: A Rare Case Report [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research
Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis (PAP) is a rare pulmonary disease characterised by the accumulation of surfactant within the alveoli, leading to impaired gas exchange. This case involves a 31-year-old male presenting with shortness of breath.

Endovascular Stenting for Pulmonary Vein Stenosis Following Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: From Diagnosis to Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is an uncommon but serious complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation, often misinterpreted as primary pulmonary disease. Timely identification is essential to prevent irreversible injury and to guide appropriate referral for interventional management. Case Presentations Through the discussion of

Microlithiasis of Seminal Vesicles and Severe Oligoasthenospermia in Pulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis (PAM): Report of An Unusual Sporadic Case [PDF]

International Journal of Fertility and Sterility, 2015
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) is classified as an elective dysmetabolic thesaurotic pneumoalveolitis and characterized by the presence within the alveoli of the lungs of myriad of tiny calculi.

On Top of the Alveolar Epithelium: Surfactant and the Glycocalyx [PDF]

, 2020
Gas exchange in the lung takes place via the air-blood barrier in the septal walls of alveoli. The tissue elements that oxygen molecules have to cross are the alveolar epithelium, the interstitium and the capillary endothelium.

Biophysical processes of morphogenesis in lizard lungs

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The lungs of squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes) are highly diverse, exhibiting single chambers, multiple chambers, transitional forms with two to three chambers, along with a suite of other anatomical features, including finger‐like epithelial projections into the body cavity known as diverticulae.

Inhalable fucoidan microparticles combining two antitubercular drugs with potential application in pulmonary tuberculosis therapy [PDF]

, 2018
The pulmonary delivery of antitubercular drugs is a promising approach to treat lung tuberculosis. This strategy not only allows targeting the infected organ instantly, it can also reduce the systemic adverse effects of the antibiotics. In light of that,

Synergistic Enhancement of Modified‐PVDF Humidity Sensitivity via Chemical Adsorption‐Ionic Conductivity and its Application in Intelligent Powered Air‐Purifying Respirator

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The study developed a PVDF/SiO2 humidity sensor with superhydrophobic properties and integrated the humidity sensor into the intelligent powered air‐purifying respirator (IPAPR) for breath monitoring. Coupled with the Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) machine learning prediction algorithm, it enables feedforward control of the fan to achieve respiratory ...
