The aim of this investigation was to study the influence of menstrual cyclicity on airway symptoms among cystic fibrosis (CF) females. Twelve CF women (mean age 30 years, mean Shwachman score 85) kept daily records during three menstrual cycles of lung function, sputum quality and need for ...

The ability to perceive the onset and severity of symptoms of asthma varies among children and depends on multifactorial causes and very complex and largely undefined psycho-physiological mechanisms [12,13]. The use of peak flow meters (calibrated instruments used to measure lung capacity in monitori...
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. This makes scar tissue grow in the interstitium. Experts don’t know what causes it. Nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis.This is an interstitial lung disease that often affects people with autoimmune conditions such asrheumatoid arthritisorscleroderma. ...
Chronic inflammation leads to remodeling of the airways that includes excess mucus secretion, proliferation of smooth muscle cells, increased deposition of extracellular matrix proteins and fibrosis. Protein kinases have been implicated in mediating inflammatory signals and airway remodeling associated with ...
No clinical study has compared lung or lobe volumes on computed tomography (CT) between the supine and standing positions in patients with idiopathic lung fibrosis (IPF). This study aimed to compare lung and lobe volumes between the supine and standing positions and evaluate the correlations betwee...
Background: Previous research has suggested that the incidence of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is increasing in the UK and elsewhere. The aim of this study is to provide contemporary estimates of IPF mortality rates across 24 Euro... F Gonnelli,M Bonifazi,R Hubbard - 《European Respirator...
