Metalloproteinases and their Inhibitors under the Course of Immunostimulation by CPG-ODN and Specific Antigen Inhalation in Equine Asthma [PDF]
Objectives. Inhalation of immunostimulatory bacterial DNA segments (cytosine-phosphate-guanosine-oligodeoxynucleotides, CpG-ODN) normalizes clinical and cytologic parameters in severe equine asthma.

Nebulized heparin in burn patients with inhalation trauma : safety and feasibility [PDF]
Background: Pulmonary hypercoagulopathy is intrinsic to inhalation trauma. Nebulized heparin could theoretically be beneficial in patients with inhalation injury, but current data are conflicting.

Pulmonary vasospasm in systemic sclerosis: noninvasive techniques for detection [PDF]
In a subgroup of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), vasospasm affecting the pulmonary circulation may contribute to worsening respiratory symptoms, including dyspnea.

Inhaled NO and Pulmonary Vasodilation [PDF]
To the Editor: Hare et al1 concluded that inhaled nitric oxide (NO) caused selective pulmonary vasodilation in patients receiving left ventricular assist device support and that this accounted for the increase in mean left atrial pressure, which they considered a beneficial hemodynamic effect.

Sol-gel transition induced by alumina nanoparticles in a model pulmonary surfactant [PDF]
Inhaled airborne particles smaller than 100 nm entering the airways have been shown to deposit in significant amount in the alveolar region of the lungs. The interior of the alveoli is covered with a ~ 1 micron thick lining fluid, called pulmonary surfactant.

Comparison of serious inhaler technique errors made by device-naïve patients using three different dry powder inhalers: a randomised, crossover, open-label study [PDF]
Background: Serious inhaler technique errors can impair drug delivery to the lungs. This randomised, crossover, open-label study evaluated the proportion of patients making predefined serious errors with Pulmojet compared with Diskus and Turbohaler dry ...

Effect of Nanoparticles on the Bulk Shear Viscosity of a Lung Surfactant Fluid [PDF]
Inhaled nanoparticles (< 100 nm) reaching the deep lung region first interact with the pulmonary surfactant, a thin lipid film lining the alveolar epithelium. To date, most biophysical studies have focused on particle induced modifications of the film interfacial properties.
