Abstract The main purpose of this research is to give high accuracy result in pulmonary diseases diagnosis and attaining real medications that corresponds with the decisions of the pulmonary disease specialist. The neura...

El desarrollo vascular pulmonar bajo condiciones de hipoxia en individuos susceptibles, como mecanismo de adaptación, se ha abordado solo de manera tangencial en las investigaciones, a diferencia de lo que ha ocurrido c...

Background: Tuberculosis remains one of the primary infectious diseases in Bangladesh that affects both adults and children. Poor diagnostic criteria and insufficient reporting, especially of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB)...

Abstract Background and aims Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by connective tissue fragility; however, respiratory manifestations such as pulmonary hemorrhage and spontaneou...

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a severe, life-threatening complication of pulmonary embolism with pulmonary hypertension (PH). The combination of insufficient resolution of thrombi following pul...

Tuberculosis is still a major health problem especially among immunocompromised hosts. Another problem is making diagnosis due to the unexpected presentation and localization of disease. Extrapulmonary disease may clinic...

Background: Chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs) are a major global health burden, and pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a well-established, evidence-based intervention that improves functional capacity and quality of lif...

Abstract Background Studies have shown that autophagy was closely involved in host defense against mycobacteria, and genetic variations in autophagy genes were related to susceptibility to multiple diseases. We conducted...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Heparin‐binding protein (HBP) has the potential clinical utility in the early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of infectious diseases. We aimed to assess the early diagnostic value of HBP...

Connective tissue disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension (CTD-PAH) is a severe pulmonary complication of connective tissue diseases (CTDs) that occurs in approximately 30% of adult patients with pulmonary art...

Background: The relationship between vitamin D receptor gene variations and other risk factors in pulmonary tuberculosis remains unclear, largely due to the complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors. The pur...

Background: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) frequently produces thoracic-cage deformities-kyphosis and rib fusion-that restrict chest expansion and impair ventilation, occasionally progressing to atelectasis or pulmonary fib...

Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) has high morbidity and mortality rates, and drug-resistant strains pose an increasing challenge. Traditional methods for detecting the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) are insufficient...

Abstract Background Patients with AIDS Suffering from sepsis secondary to pulmonary infections admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) carry a high burden of morbidity and mortality. Therefore, rapid identification and t...

Abstract Background Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) is increasingly diagnosed in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-negative and apparently immunocompetent individuals. A critical complication of PC is dissemination to the...

Abstract Heart failure (HF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) frequently co-occur, complicating treatment. Concerns about respiratory complications often lead to underuse of β-blockers in this population....

A review of the literature revealed secondary amyloidosis (AA) associated with lung cancer in only 14 cases. With respect to the histological subtype, 8 of the cases were squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).Herein, we describe...

IntroductionHyperuricemia, pulmonary hypertension, renal failure, alkalosis (HUPRA) syndrome is a mitochondrial disease caused by mutations in SARS2 (seryl-tRNA synthetase 2), which plays a role in protein synthesis. Lim...

BackgroundPrimary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) management relies on mucociliary clearance to prevent bronchiectasis. While humoral immunodeficiencies have been reported in PCD, their clinical significance remains under-defin...

Abstract Background Blood eosinophil count is an accepted biomarker for type 2 inflammation in COPD. However, the majority of COPD patients are characterized by non-type 2 inflammation. We aimed to test readily obtainabl...

BackgroundItchy E3 ubiquitin ligase deficiency (ITCH deficiency) is a rare monogenic immune dysregulation syndrome characterized by early-onset multisystem autoimmunity and significant morbidity and mortality. Only one p...
