Molecular Investigation in Early‐Onset Interstitial Lung Disease: Results From 699 Unrelated Patients

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are rare and severe respiratory conditions that may ultimately result in pulmonary fibrosis (PF). The objective of this study was to present the results of molecular diagnosis of early‐onset ILD (from neonates to young adults < 50 years) in a reference genetic diagnostic laboratory ...

Restoring Functional Status: A Long-Term Case Report of Severe Lung and Ventilatory Muscle Pump Dysfunction Involving Recurrent Bacterial Pneumonias [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background and Purpose: Prolonged mechanical ventilation contributes to immobility and deconditioning making efforts to safely discontinue ventilator support desirable. This case report documents how implementing physical therapy treatment interventions,

Confined spaces in space: Cerebral implications of chronic elevations of inspired carbon dioxide and implications for long‐duration space travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrovascular regulation is critically dependent upon the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$), owing to its effect on cerebral blood flow, tissue PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$, tissue proton concentration, cerebral metabolism and cognitive and neuronal ...

Interpretation of HRCT Scans in the Diagnosis of IPF: Improving Communication Between Pulmonologists and Radiologists. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD). In this review, we describe the central role of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in the diagnosis of IPF and discuss how communication between ...

Immune system benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease characterized by pulmonary and systemic inflammation. Inflammatory mediators show relationships with shortness of breath, exercise intolerance and health related quality of life. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR), a comprehensive education and exercise training programme, is the
