Association of hormone replacement therapy with bronchial

hyper-responsiveness -- Respiratory Medicine

http://www.mdlinx.com/PulmonologyLinx/thearts.cfm?artid=655188 & specid=14>

Conclusion: Results for dose–response slopes were similar, while mild BHR

showed no association with HRT use. These results point to a relaxing

effect of estrogens on bronchial smooth muscle...

Pathological findings of bronchiectases caused by Mycobacterium avium

intracellulare complex -- Respiratory Medicine

http://www.mdlinx.com/PulmonologyLinx/thearts.cfm?artid=655180 & specid=14>

Conclusion: Our present study demonstrates that destruction of fundamental

bronchial structure due to extensive granuloma formation throughout the

airways was likely the main cause of bronchiectases in MAC infection...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa–Induced Apoptosis Is Defective in Respiratory

Epithelial Cells Expressing Mutant Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane

Conductance Regulator -- American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular

Biology

http://www.mdlinx.com/PulmonologyLinx/thearts.cfm?artid=653183 & specid=14>

Conclusion: WT CFTR expression promotes a rapid expression of CD95/CD95

ligand and apoptotic response to P. aeruginosa infection. Prompt apoptosis

of infected epithelial cells may be critical for clearance of P.

aeruginosa, and CFTR-associated defects in apoptosis may contribute to the

pathogenesis of the lung disease in cystic fibrosis...

Comparison of lung deposition of colomycin using the HaloLite and the Pari

LC Plus nebulisers in patients with cystic fibrosis -- Archives of Diseases

in Childhood

http://www.mdlinx.com/PulmonologyLinx/thearts.cfm?artid=652692 & specid=14>

Conclusion: The manufacturer's recommended dosages for nebulising

antibiotics with a HaloLite result in a lower delivery than patients

receive when using a Pari nebuliser. The concept of adaptive aerosol

delivery has several theoretical advantages but the recommended doses for

the HaloLite need to be modified in order to improve effectiveness...

Oral health and related factors in cystic fibrosis and other chronic

respiratory disorders -- Archives of Diseases in Childhood

>

http://www.mdlinx.com/PulmonologyLinx/thearts.cfm?artid=652689 & specid=14>

Conclusion: Enamel defects, particularly enamel opacities, which can be

disfiguring, are more common in CF patients. Early, regular dental visits

may prevent such defects becoming dentally disabling and would also permit

the removal of dental calculus deposits. The use of long term antibiotics

and pancreatic enzymes may confer some protection against the development

and progression of dental caries in patients with cystic fibrosis. The

inclusion of a specialist paediatric dentist, as part of the

multiprofessional team managing the care of these children, would be an

advantage...
