Adult animals given large amounts of I/sup 131/ over a short or prolonged period develop the typical signs of hypothyroidism. Lactation is depressed but neither wool growth nor fertility is affected. Sheep become susceptible to respiratory infection and commonly, die from pneumonia; experimental ...
An oxygen-enriched atmosphere, on the other hand, produces exhilarating effects when breathed. However, lung damage can occur if the oxygen concentration in the air exceeds 60%, and prolonged exposure to an atmosphere of pure oxygen may initiate bronchitis, pneumonia, or lung collapse. An addition...
To assess the influence of co-infection on lung pathology, we observed the abnormalities in the lungs during infection using in vivo micro-CT imaging. Hamsters of all three infected groups developed pneumonia (Fig.2A). We evaluated the severity of pneumonia using the CT severity score9,17. At...
Prolonged bedrest increases the risk of hospital-acquired pneumonia, which is often caused by bacterial infection3. In particular, a negative correlation between HDL concentration40 or apoA-I41 and mortality in human sepsis has been described, while some authors suggest HDL to be an early marker ...
bacterial pneumonia, and helminthic infections might also have increased HIV-1 RNA concentrations. Although children with these and other infections were rigorously excluded the effect of subclinical conditions could not be completely removed and therefore the need for a multivariate analysis to determine...

It can also be a symptom of other health problems, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), congestive heart failure (CHF), and pneumonia. How is the respiratory system affected by asthma? If you have asthma, the inside walls of the airways in your lungs can become inflamed ...
To investigate the incidence of pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) and its risk factors in patients with rheumatic disease receiving non-high-dose steroid treatment, along with the risks and benefits of PCP prophylaxis. This study included 28,292 treatment epi
TheNSAIDsare highly effective analgesics in dogs, and may provide effective analgesia up to 24 hours after a single dose.Adverse effectsof the NSAIDs includegastritis, which may proceed to ulceration. For this reason, NSAIDs are most appropriate for acute postoperative pain control, and not for...
