CHROMOSOMAL PROTEINS IN PULMONARY ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES
In this study the nature of chromosomal proteins, his tones and nonhistone in resident alveolar macrophages was investigated in comparison to peritoneal neutrophils and calf thymus proteins. Cells were obtained by lavaging the lung and after purity determination they were subjected to fractional extraction procedures. Proteins were then analysed on SDS polyacrylamide gels and densitometric...
متن کاملAn Ultrasound Sign of Alveolar-Interstitial Syndrome
Can ultrasound be of any help in the diagnosis of alveolar-interstitial syndrome? In a prospective study, we examined 250 consecutive patients in a medical intensive care unit: 121 patients with radiologic alveolar-interstitial syndrome (disseminated to the whole lung, n 5 92; localized, n 5 29) and 129 patients without radiologic evidence of alveolar-interstitial syndrome. The antero-lateral c...
متن کامل[hamman-rich Syndrome (diffuse Interstitial Pulmonary Fibrosis)].
In 1935, Hamman and Rich’ of Johns Hopkins first described a syndrome which they had observed in three patients, characterized by a gradual onset of cough, dyspnea, and cyanosis; and in whose lungs pathologic studies revealed a diffuse interstitial fibrosis, involving the interalveolar septa in particular. In the discussion they emphasized that the causative factors and associated findings comm...
متن کاملPulmonary interstitial emphysema following spirometry in CPFE syndrome.
Interstitial emphysema (IE) is an uncommon lung disease associated with barotrauma, and is seen almost exclusively in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome. It is caused by the invasion of gas into the pulmonary interstitial space surrounding the bronchovascular bundles due to sudden changes in lung volumes and transpulmonary pressure. Secondary changes in the alveolar sacs cause the alve...
متن کاملPulmonary Alveolar Microlithiasis: A Rare Case Report
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis is an uncommon infiltrative pulmonary disease characterized by deposition of microliths in the alveoli. We present the case of a young adult with complaints of shortness of breath on exertion. Chest radiograph showed innumerable small, dense nodules, diffusely involving both the lungs - predominantly in the lower zones. High-resolution CT scan illustrated wides...
