lungscomputed tomographycollagen vascular diseaserheumatoid arthritissclerodermaCollagen vascular disease is one of the most common causes of chronic infiltrative lung disease. Patterns of lung injury from collagen vascular disease include nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), usual interstitial pneumonia, ...
An infection in your lungs can create more mucus and make it harder to breathe. An infection can also create swelling in your airway and prevent air from getting in. You can decrease your risk for infection by doing the following: Wash your hands often. Wash your hands several times each...
We observed higher levels of label transfer uncertainty in datasets from diseased lungs (Fig. 6b, condition), possibly flagging cell types changed in response to disease. Specifically, labels of alveolar fibroblasts and alveolar macrophages, which interact to form a dysregulated cellular circuit in ...
While small airways disease is not fully understood, evidence suggests it may be related to either inflammation or remodeling of the small airways that prevents air from being able to be exhaled from the lungs. “For the first time, we’re describing small airways disease in this population of...
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Although smoking-related lung cancers continue to account for the majority of diagnoses, smoking rates have been decreasing for several decades. Lung cancer in individuals who have n
resulting from the disease, pneumoconiosis is defined as fibrosis of the lungs due to exposure to asbestos or silica dust. legco.gov.hk 在該條例下,肺塵病是指由於暴露於 石棉塵或硅石塵而導致肺部纖 維化的疾 病。 legco.gov.hk [...] leading world scientific centres in the sphere of organ...
As such, the impact on the patient's health and lung function may be due to obstruction of the airways typified by increased airflow resistance (obstructive lung disease) or restriction where the lungs are stiffened with a loss of lung compliance and associated loss of gas exchange units (...
Lung disease or lung disease itself, Pulmonary complications of systemic disease. Respiratory system from the respiratory tract (nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea and bronchi at all levels) and the alveolar component. Lungs are the main organs of the respiratory system, lung diseases are ...

(Rahman and Adcock, 2006). This contributes to a fourth mechanistic concept, an imbalance between cell death and replenishment of lung structural cells, resulting in a loss of alveolar septa and development of emphysema. Moreover,cellular senescencedue to aging of thelungs might further impair ...
