The treatment of nitrogen dioxide (NO2)-induced lung edema is controversial. In addition, mechanisms and patterns of interstitial edema formation in this form of increased permeability edema are unclear. To ascertain if methylprednisolone (MP) is effective in the therapy of NO2-induced edema, we
BACKGROUND
Airway edema and mucus plugging are the predominant pathological features in infants with acute viral bronchiolitis. Nebulized hypertonic saline solution may reduce these pathological changes and decrease airway obstruction.
OBJECTIVE
To assess the effects of nebulized hypertonic saline
Background: Inhaled hypertonic saline (HS) has shown benefit in decreasing airway edema in acute bronchiolitis which is the most common lower respiratory infection resulting in dyspnea among infants under 2 years old. The aim of this
Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is the most common expression of chronic allograft dysfunction in lung transplantation. Moreover, BO represents the major cause of death in the long-term after this procedure. On the other hand, mesenchymal stem cells have been tested in animal models of Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a rare disease involving concentric bronchiolar fibrosis that develops rapidly following inhalation of certain irritant gases at sufficiently high acute doses. While there are many potential causes of bronchiolar lesions involved in a variety of chronic lung
BACKGROUND
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes acute bronchiolitis in children and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of recurrent wheezing and asthma. However, few children exposed to RSV experience acute bronchiolitis or its sequelae, suggesting a subgroup of susceptible children. An
Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP) has been described after bone marrow, lung, heart-lung, and renal transplantation, but rarely after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). We report a case of BOOP after OLT to emphasize BOOP as an under diagnosed and treatable cause of
BACKGROUND
Bronchiolitis is a common clinical problem in children below 2 years presenting with respiratory symptoms. As there is necrosis and sloughing of epithelial cells, edema, increased secretion of mucus causing obstruction of large and small airways we aim to see the clinical profile and the
OBJECTIVE
To study the level of retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor γt (RORγt) in rat lung tissues of bronchiolitis caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and its implication.
METHODS
The rats were randomly divided into normal group and bronchiolitis group. After the model of
Quinine is a vital anti-malarial drug used in the management of resistant Falciparum malaria. There are previous reports of quinine-induced pulmonary edema and infiltrates. We report the first case of biopsy-proven bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP), confirmed by the Naranjo
Bronchilitis is one of the most common respiratory diseases in infants and early childhood (< 2 ys of age). The diagnosis is clinical and laboratory tests support only recognition of the severity level of the disease. In most cases, the main reason of inflammation are viruses: RSV, rhinovirus. In
We describe the various therapies for infant acute viral bronchiolitis and the contradictory results obtained with chest physical therapy. The treatment target is bronchial obstruction, which is a multifactorial phenomenon that includes edema, bronchoconstriction, and increased mucus production,
OBJECTIVE
A case of bronchiolitis obliterans with organizing pneumonia (BOOP) that developed after three years of nitrofurantoin therapy is described.
CONCLUSIONS
An 89 year-old Caucasian woman weighing 60 kg with diastolic heart failure and a history of urosepsis, viral pericarditis, and atrial
