Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Deletion of vitamin D receptor leads to premature emphysema/COPD by increased matrix metalloproteinases and lymphoid aggregates formation [PDF]

, 2011
Deficiency of vitamin D is associated with accelerated decline in lung function. Vitamin D is a ligand for nuclear hormone vitamin D receptor (VDR), and upon binding it modulates various cellular functions.

Clinical characteristics of immediate allergic adverse reactions to intravenous amoxicillin‒clavulanic acid in conscious dogs

Veterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Amoxicillin‒clavulanic acid (AMC) is one of the most frequently used antibiotics in small animal practice, and reports on adverse reactions are scarce. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics of immediate allergic adverse reactions to intravenous (IV) AMC in conscious dogs. Methods The medical records of a

Pulmonary Vascular Volume by Quantitative CT in Dyspneic Smokers with Minor Emphysema

COPD, 2023
Reduced lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) at rest and increased ventilation (⩒E)-carbon dioxide output (⩒CO2) during exercise are frequent findings in dyspneic smokers with largely preserved FEV1.

Serotonin and corticosterone rhythms in mice exposed to cigarette smoke and in patients with COPD:implication for COPD-associated neuropathogenesis [PDF]

, 2014
The circadian timing system controls daily rhythms of physiology and behavior, and disruption of clock function can trigger stressful life events. Daily exposure to cigarette smoke (CS) can lead to alteration in diverse biological and physiological ...

Staging concept for aging management: Definition, mechanism, and coping strategies

VIEW, EarlyView.
We divided the overall aging stage into “pre‐aging”, “aging compensation”, and “aging disability”. For each stage, we delineate the clinical presentations, biological phenomena, theoretical underpinnings, and key management priorities. Abstract Aging, as a gradual and largely irreversible biological process, characterized by declining organismal ...

A Low Peripheral Blood CD4/CD8 Ratio Is Associated with Pulmonary Emphysema in HIV. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The prevalence of emphysema is higher among HIV-infected (HIV+) individuals compared to HIV-uninfected persons. While greater tobacco use contributes, HIV-related effects on immunity likely confer additional risk.

Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2024)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder characterized by abnormal breathing during sleeping. OSA can damage various organs throughout the body and is burdensome, both socially and economically. Moreover, as OSA has been increasingly studied in recent years, new evidence‐based guidelines for its diagnosis and surgical ...

Post‐mortem CT detection of fatal air embolism after aerosolized fibrin glue for bladder bleeding

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Radiation‐induced hemorrhagic cystitis (RHC) is a severe complication of pelvic radiotherapy, often used to treat various pelvic malignancies. Despite multiple therapeutic options, including conservative and invasive interventions, the optimal management remains uncertain. We report the case of a 76‐year‐old male with pulmonary emphysema and a
