ANTISEPTIC INHALATIONS IN PULMONARY DISEASES. [PDF]
In the treatment of pulmonary complaints the tendency at the present time is towards local medication. This arises principally from the general acceptation of the germ theory, which teaches in the main that diseases originate from microorganisms; and the belief that from this it must follow, as a necessity, that these microorganisms must be destroyed ...

Cosmetic Talc–Related Pulmonary Granulomatosis [PDF]
Inhalation of cosmetic talc can lead to pulmonary foreign-body granulomatosis, though fewer than 10 cases of inhaled cosmetic talc–related pulmonary granulomatosis have been reported in adults.

Inhaled Nitric Oxide for High-Altitude Pulmonary Edema [PDF]
BACKGROUND. Pulmonary hypertension is a hallmark of high-altitude pulmonary edema and may contribute to its pathogenesis. When administered by inhalation, nitric oxide, an endothelium-derived relaxing factor, attenuates the pulmonary vasoconstriction ...

Background The death toll associated with inhaled ambient particulate matter (PM) is attributed mainly to cardio-vascular rather than pulmonary effects. However, it is unclear whether the key event for cardiovascular impairment is particle translocation ...

Revealing the Pulmonary Surfactant Corona on Silica Nano-particles by Cryo-Transmission Electron Microscopy [PDF]
When inhaled nanoparticles (NPs) deposit in alveoli, they transit through the pulmonary surfactant (PS), a biofluid made of proteins and phospholipidic vesicles. They acquire a corona reflecting the PS-nanomaterials interaction. Since the corona determines directly the NPs biological fate, the question of its nature and structure is central.

The Inhalation Characteristics of Patients When They Use Different Dry Powder Inhalers [PDF]
Background: The characteristics of each inhalation maneuver when patients use dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are important, because they control the quality of the emitted dose.

Pulmonary surfactant inhibition of nanoparticle uptake by alveolar epithelial cells [PDF]
Pulmonary surfactant forms a sub-micrometer thick fluid layer that covers the surface of alveolar lumen and inhaled nanoparticles therefore come in to contact with surfactant prior to any interaction with epithelial cells. We investigate the role of the surfactant as a protective physical barrier by modeling the interactions using silica-Curosurf ...
