MicroRNAs in pulmonary arterial remodeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pulmonary arterial remodeling is a presently irreversible pathologic hallmark of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This complex disease involves pathogenic dysregulation of all cell types within the small pulmonary arteries contributing to vascular ...

Autophagy in Pulmonary Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2016
The pathogenesis of pulmonary diseases is often complex and characterized by multiple cellular events, including inflammation, cell death, and cell proliferation. The mechanisms by which these events are regulated in pulmonary diseases remain poorly understood.

The Effects of Inhaled Steroid and Theophylline on Systemic Inflammation in Copd

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inflammation, 2011
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a systemic disease characterized by chronic, progressive airflow limitation and airway inflammation. In this study, our aim is to compare the effects of inhaled corticosteroids and theophylline on systemic ...

Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension: A Review of the Multifaceted Pathobiology

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease results from the incomplete resolution of thrombi, leading to fibrotic obstructions. These vascular obstructions and additional microvasculopathy may lead to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH ...

Pulmonary Vessel Segmentation based on Orthogonal Fused U-Net++ of Chest CT Images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Pulmonary vessel segmentation is important for clinical diagnosis of pulmonary diseases, while is also challenging due to the complicated structure. In this work, we present an effective framework and refinement process of pulmonary vessel segmentation from chest computed tomographic (CT) images.

Relationship between ID1 and EGFR-TKI Resistance 
in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

open access: yesChinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2016
Background and objective Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) presents the highest morbidity and mortality among malignant tumors worldwide. The overall effective rate of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) is 30% to 40 ...

Higher circulating Trimethylamine N-oxide levels are associated with worse severity and prognosis in pulmonary hypertension: a cohort study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2022
Background Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), the gut microbiota-dependent metabolite, is a potential biomarker in several cardiovascular diseases. However, no study has investigated its value in pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Topology Repairing of Disconnected Pulmonary Airways and Vessels: Baselines and a Dataset [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Accurate segmentation of pulmonary airways and vessels is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary diseases. However, current deep learning approaches suffer from disconnectivity issues that hinder their clinical usefulness. To address this challenge, we propose a post-processing approach that leverages a data-driven method to repair the ...

Multimedia Respiratory Database (RespiratoryDatabase@TR): Auscultation Sounds and Chest X-rays [PDF]

open access: yesNatural and Engineering Sciences, 2017, 2021
Auscultation is a method for diagnosis of especially internal medicine diseases such as cardiac, pulmonary and cardio-pulmonary by listening the internal sounds from the body parts. It is the simplest and the most common physical examination in the assessment processes of the clinical skills.
