Alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells maintain lung health by acting as stem cells and producing pulmonary surfactant. AT2 dysfunction underlies many lung diseases, including interstitial lung disease (ILD), in ...

Background: Idiopathic pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) has recently been recognised as a disease of impaired alveolar macrophage function caused by neutralising anti-granulocyte-macrophage colony ...

The first term of Equation 5, the elastic force, has no direct contribution from the frequency ... (1950), describing the relationship between elastic, viscous, turbulent and total WoB per minute, ...

For instance, the kinetic energy of the interface is orders of magnitude smaller than its surface tension. Conversely, if surface mass density is not disregarded, then the equation of motion for the ...

Results are presented for subjects in the full cohort, followed for 1 year. Interactions between exacerbation occurrence and pathogens were investigated by generalised estimating equation and ...

A linear equation is drawn as a straight line on a set of axes. To draw the graph we need coordinates. We generate these coordinates by substituting values into the linear equation. STEP 1 - Draw ...

The criteria for inclusion in the study group and for the presence of a "steady-state" included the following: All patients admitted to the hospital with alveolar hypoventilation and persisting ...

According to this calculation (Equation 6), the probability that more than two biotinylated antibodies bind to the streptavidin molecule is 7.7 × 10 −5. Most biotinylated antibodies occupied only one ...

Indeed extending our model to follow the tumor evolution under treatment and the associated internal dynamics from the early alveolar stage of the lung by incorporating the actual three-dimensional ...

This report details convincing evidence that experience with multilingualism in general, and with larger phonological inventories specifically, is related to differences in the structure of the ...
