Lung adenocarcinoma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are pulmonary diseases that share common aetiological factors (tobacco smoking) and probable dysregulated pathways. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an essential role in regulating numerous physiological and pathological processes. The purpose of this study was to assess global miRNA expression patterns in patients with COPD and/or ade...

Both an external nasal strip device (FLAIR) and furosemide significantly attenuated pulmonary hemorrhage in Thoroughbred horses following a 2-minute bout of high-speed treadmill exercise. Given the purported ergogenic effects of furosemide and the general concerns associated with drug use in racehorses, the external nasal strip is a viable alternative for the attenuation of exerciseinduced pulm...

The operation of pulmonary valvotomy has been so brilliantly successful that its failure to achieve an ideal end result in certain cases deserves comment. In this report, some residual effects of isolated pulmonary stenosis that may persist after complete valvotomy will be considered. It will be seen that all of these are the result of very severe stenosis or of long-delayed relief of stenosis ...

Acquired pulmonary stenosis was diagnosed in a 53 year old woman presenting with the unusual feature of an oral murmur. Mediastinotomy showed extensive malignant tissue surrounding the pulmonary artery, although a mediastinal mass was not evident on chest radiographs. Histological examination confirmed a pleomorphic adenocarcinoma, which has not previously been reported as causing acquired pulm...

Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) is an opportunistic and conditional disease. It commonly occurs in immunocompromised patients. We presented a case of PC in an immunocompetent patient. This patient had the complaints of irritating cough and shortness of breath. A variety of antibiotic treatment was ineffective. The patient eventually received percutaneous transcutaneous biopsy and PC was diagnosed...

Pulmonary tuberculosis is a major flail of mankind, 1/3 of the world population is infected. In Morocco, the incidence is estimated by the Word Health Organization to 89 cases per 100 000 inhabitants. However, gunshot assaults are rare. Many circumstances of discovery of tuberculosis were described. We present the case of an incidental finding of pulmonary tuberculosis in a young patient victim...

The natural history of cystic fibrosis lung disease is one of chronic progression with intermittent episodes of acute worsening of symptoms frequently called acute pulmonary exacerbations These exacerbations typically warrant medical intervention. It is important that appropriate therapies are recommended on the basis of available evidence of efficacy and safety. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation ...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic actively progressive disease of unknown etiology. Prognosis of the disease in the majority is unfavorable, the condition of patients failures rapidly. Life expectancy after diagnosis is from 2 to 4 years [1,2]. The current set of therapeutic interventions for pulmonary fibrosis is limited and not effective. Clinical practice focuses primarily on the tr...
