Effects of active smoking on airway and systemic inflammation profiles in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(2013-06-01)
Background: The markers that characterize local and systemic inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remain unclear, as do their correlations with smoking status and presence of disease. The aim of ...
Influence of chest wall on lung mechanics during inspiration
(Philadelphia, 2014-01-29)
RATIONALE: The interaction between lungs and chest wall influences lung volume, that determines lung history during respiration cycle. In this study, the influence of chest wall mechanics on respiratory system is assessed ...
Qualidade de vida, força muscular e intensidade de dispneia em pacientes com doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2015-09-08)
Introduction: The Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is characterized by airflow limitation progressively associated with an inflammatory response of the lungs. Its cycle can lead to shortness of breath during ...
Trauma In Elderly [trauma No Idoso]

Comparison of physical properties of two exogenous surfactants: new parameter.
(Águas de Lindóia, 2013-05)
The pulmonary surfactant has essential physical properties for normal lung function. The most important property is the surface tension. In this work, it was evaluated the surface tension of two commercial exogenous ...
Activation of human platelets by a TLR2 agonist induces aggregation, tissue factor dependent procoagulant activity, thrombin generation and increased adhesion to endothelial cells.
(2016)
In addition to its well known function in hemostasis, the involvement of platelets in innate immunity is
today widely accepted. Acute inflammation in response to bacterial infection, results in hemostatic
abnormalities ...
Continuous measurement of cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO 2) for assessment of cardiovascular status during hemorrhagic shock in a swine model
(2012-08-01)
Background: Early trauma care is dependent on subjective assessments and sporadic vital sign assessments. We hypothesized that near-infrared spectroscopy-measured cerebral oxygenation (regional oxygen saturation [rSO 2]) ...
