Lung diseases like emphysema or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are a leading cause of death worldwide. With the advent of COVID-19, these diseases have only become more prevalent. Despite the ...
The lung is one of the tissues most sensitive to radiation in the human body. People exposed to high radiation doses following nuclear incidents develop radiation-induced lung injury (RILI), which ...
In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers applied their previously developed precision-cut lung slice (PCLS) model to study the initial events in severe acute respiratory ...
A research team led by Prof. Li Hai from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a new computational model that can accurately predict lung motion ...
The particle size distribution of QVAR was measured using the Andersen cascade impactor (series 20-800 Mark II, Ecomesure, Janvry, France) operating at 28.3 L/min. The endotracheal tube was connected ...
Researchers have reversed lung fibrosis in a mouse model of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Mice were given bleomycin for 12 days to establish lung fibrosis, and then treated daily until 21 days with ...
