P16-110: THE co-relation between exercise capacity and pulmonary hypertension in different types of interstitial lung diseases in a Tertiary Care Center in India.Respirology
Antivirulence is an alternative approach that focuses on interfering with bacterial virulence factors instead of central growth pathways to treat disease. Antivirulence drugs have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for bacterial toxin-mediated diseases, and investigational drugs for antibio...
Cancer is used generically for more than 100 different diseases, including malignant tumors of different sites such as breast, stomach, colon, lung and mouth. (1) The disease arises principally as a consequence of individual exposure to the substances that cause cancer in what individuals inhale,...
Lung cancer continues to be the leading contributor to cancer-related mortality worldwide. In Australia, lung cancer is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer, but the leading cause of cancer death, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) making up the vast majority of cases. Despite public...
Dendritic cells (DC) in the lung that induce Th17 differentiation remain incompletely understood, in part because conventional CD11b+ DCs (cDC2) are heterogeneous. Here, we report a population of cDCs that rapidly accumulates in lungs of mice following h

Since ARDS is an acute event and CF a chronic inflammation with acute exacerbations, we compared calgranulin expression in sputum obtained from CF and patients with chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD). Levels of S100A12 and S100A8/9 were elevated in CF sputum compared to COPD sputum, but...
Tobramycin is commonly used to treat lung infections in patients with cystic fibrosis. Minor side effects associated with the use of gentamicin include increased thirst and loss of appetite. Users of tobramycin may notice a change in their voice or an unpleasant odor or taste of the medication. ...
Globally, China is ranked the third, in terms of the number of patients with TB. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is commonly found in the lung tissue, although the microorganism can invade all organs of the body. MTB strains are divided into human and bovine types, of which human MTB ...
Owing to the high mortality and rapidly growing costs related to lung cancer, it is worth examining the health benefits of prevention for major types of lung cancer. This study attempts to quantify the quality-adjusted life expectancy (QALE), loss-of-QALE, and lifetime healthcare expenditures...
