The efficacy of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) in limiting alveolar flooding after acute lung injury was investigated using ethchlorvynol (ECV)-induced low pressure pulmonary edema in dogs. Harvested autologous plasma (PL) (control, n = 8) or 6% HES (n =

It has been suggested that regular treatment with high doses of beta 2-agonists might result in poorer control of asthma and increased bronchial responsiveness. We have examined change in FEV1 (delta FEV1), bronchial reactivity, peak expiratory flow

The outcomes of alternative strategies for the management of pulmonary complications in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and with suspected Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia were compared using a decision analysis model. A d

The role of vasoreactivity in PAF-induced pulmonary hypertension (PHT) was assessed in isolated, perfused rabbit lungs. We evaluated the steady-state pulmonary vascular response to five vasoconstrictors: PGF2 alpha, norepinephrine, angiotensin II, PA

Chronic hypoxia produces pulmonary artery hypertension through vasoconstriction and structural remodeling of the pulmonary vascular bed. The present study was designed to test the effect of heparin administered via aerosol on the development of hypox

Patients with asthma generate increased amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from peripheral blood cells and cells recovered by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). ROS produce many of the pathophysiologic changes associated with asthma and may contribu

Using aggressive surveillance of blood, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, and lung tissue, we sought to determine the incidence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonitis in isolated lung transplant recipients and to characterize its impact on pulmonary

Major basic protein (MBP) is a highly cationic protein found in the granules of eosinophils. It has been postulated that MBP may participate in the pathogenesis of airway hyperresponsiveness exhibited by asthmatic patients. Accordingly, we used a rat

Recently, "low-dose and long-term" erythromycin treatment has been reported as effective on diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB), but its mechanism is still obscure. Patients with DPB were found to have significantly higher percentages of neutrophils in th

Indirect effects of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in lung transplant recipients (LTX) have not previously been described in detail. We compared spirometric results, development of chronic rejection, rates of respiratory superinfections, and mortal
