Abstract
The present review intends to capture the current status of the research on the correlation between OSA severity and upper airway morphology. Morphological abnormalities that are responsible for OSA differ with age. Therefore, correlations between morphology and OSA in children and adults and the ef...

Abstract
(1) In the group A, the symptom of asthmatic attack was alleviated and the infiltration of inflammatory cells around the hronchi were remarkahly decreased. In the group C, the total amount of cells in hronchoalveolar lavage fluid and other inflammatory cells were ohviously higher than those of group...

Mammalian Genome (21)1-2 2010
Abstract
We analyzed recombinant congenic strains (RCS) of mice generated from these hyper- and hyporesponsive parental strains to identify genetic loci underlying the trait of airway responsiveness in response to methacholine as assessed by whole-body plethysmography. Our screen identified 16 chromosomal re...

Abstract
Inter-rater reliability was strong for all measures (r > 0.77; p < 0.001). The sagittal and coronal dimensions of the frontal sinus outflow tract increased significantly after BCD and Draf I dissection (p < 0.028). Significantly less change was noted in average coronal dimensions of the frontal sinu...

Abstract
Mean changes for the total group and both sub-groups were significant for both self-care and mobility, except for the prematurity group's mobility scores. Effect sizes were small-to-moderate. Scores for both groups were at the low end of the scoring ranges. Average time to complete the PEDI-MCAT was...

Abstract
We present an update on the GR gene, the GR alpha and GR beta splicing variants, their translational and post-translational modifications, as well as their alterations in disease. GR alpha is ubiquitously expressed and is responsible for the induction and repression of target genes. GR beta acts as...

Abstract
An esophagorespiratory fistula (ERF) is an often fatal consequence of esophageal or bronchogenic carcinomas. The preferred treatment is placement of esophageal and/or airway stents. Stent placement must be performed as quickly as possible since patients with ERFs are at a high risk for aspiration pn...

Abstract
Stem/progenitor cells can be used to repair defects in the airway wall, resulting from e.g., tumors, trauma, tissue reactions following long-time intubations, or diseases that are associated with epithelial damage. Several potential sources of cells for airway epithelium have been identified. These...

Value in Health (13)4 2010
Abstract
We performed principal component analysis (PCA) based on 35 items, after optimal scaling via multiple correspondence analysis (MCA), and subsequently on eight scales, after standard summative scoring. Item-based summary measures were planned. Data from the European Community Respiratory Health Surve...

Abstract
Airway assessment has remained a problematic area, largely due to the low sensitivities, specificities and/or positive predictive values of most bedside tests. In this paper a structured overview of the common preoperative airway assessment tests is presented, based on a model for direct laryngoscop...

Abstract
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) occurs within 24 hours of intubation and mechanical ventilation. Health care costs related to increased patient mortality, extended length of stay, and patient well-being make treatment of VAP a priority in all health care settings. The Institute for Healthcare...

Abstract
Compared to children in area L, the frequencies of "phlegm" and "irritation of the nose" were significantly greater in the children in areas H-2 and H-3. %FVC and %FEV1 in hypersusceptible children were significantly reduced in November 2006 as compared to February 2006 (P = 0.047, 0.027), though no...

Journal of Agromedicine (15)1 2010
Abstract
Ocular, respiratory, and systemic symptoms on the evening of October 5, 2005, corresponded to a plume of chloropicrin, with estimated concentrations as high as 0.15 ppm, in the community of Salinas, California. Cases occurred between 0.36 and 2.89 miles from the application site. Use of irritant agr...

Abstract
Tissue damage caused by inflammation or a cicatricial process represents one of the major sources of morbidity for patients with Wegener's granulomatosis. Some of these manifestations require special interventions used alone or in combination with conventional medical treatment. These interventional...

Abstract
Changes in airway inflammation during virus-induced asthma exacerbations are reflected in EBT changes. These preliminary data suggest a possible role of EBT measurements in the assessment of airway inflammation in children with virus-induced asthma.

Cell Research (20)1 2010
Abstract
We show that in an allergen-induced asthma model, mice with transgenic overexpression of IL-23R exhibited increased airway infiltration of eosinophils and Th2 cytokine production, whereas those deficient in IL-23 displayed reduced airway inflammation. In vitro, IL-23-IL-23R signaling promoted GATA-3...

Abstract
Dentists need to play a bigger role in managing airway development and craniofacial formation even though the relationship between the airway, breathing and malocclusion remains quite controversial. Certainly the airway, the mode of breathing and craniofacial formation are so interrelated during gro...

Abstract
Foreign body aspiration is one of the commonly encountered emergencies in ENT and still it remains a significant cause of mortality and morbidity. However with the development of modern endoscopic techniques and controlled anaesthesia, most foreign bodies can be removed safely with a...

Inhalation of gases, vapors and aerosols can cause a wide range of adverse health effects, ranging from simple irritation to systemic diseases. The large number of chemicals and complex mixtures present in indoor and outdoor air coupled with the introduction of new materials such as nanoparticles an...

Abstract
Mice vaccinated with BCG alone showed a significant reduction in airway inflammation, percentage of eosinophils in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, and serum OVA-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels in comparison with control animals. The suppressive effects of BCG were substantially augmented...
