The aim of this study was to investigate whether idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) can be distinguished from rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-associated interstitial pneumonia (RA-IP) by means of quantitatively assessing myofibroblasts and S-100 protein positive dendritic cells. Seven patients with IPF and twelve with RA, in whom the pathological findings were consistent with usual interstitial pneu...
background: nosocomial pneumonia is a prevalent complication in patients admitted to intensive care units (icu). endotracheal suction is used in cleaning the airways of secretions in patients under mechanical ventilation. performing suction accurately is of great importance to prevent ventilation associated pneumonia. the purpose of this study was to compare the effect of open versus closed tra...
Pneumonia may be caused by a wide range of pathogens and is considered the most common infectious cause of death in humans. Murine acute lung infection models mirror human pathologies in many aspects and contribute to our understanding of the disease and the development of novel treatment strategies. Despite progress in other fields of tissue imaging, histopathology remains the most conclusive ...
The aim of this study was to explore whether oropharyngeal dysphagia is a risk factor for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in the elderly and to assess the physiology of deglutition of patients with pneumonia. In the case-control study, 36 elderly patients (aged ≥ 70 years) hospitalised with pneumonia were matched by age and sex with two independently living controls. All subjects were given ...

Vancomycin remains the mainstay treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, including pneumonia. There is concern regarding the emergence of vancomycin tolerance, caused by heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (hVISA), and subsequent vancomycin treatment failure. Pneumonia is associated with high morbidity and mortality, especially with delays in appr...
This study investigated the serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels in children with community-acquired pneumonia. Serum VEGF levels were measured in patients with pneumonia (n=29) and in control subjects (n=27) by a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The pneumonia group was classified into bronchopneumonia with pleural effusion (n=1), bronchopneumonia without pleural ef...
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a human pathogen associated with skin and soft tissue infections (SSTI) and life threatening sepsis and pneumonia. Efforts to develop effective vaccines against S. aureus have been largely unsuccessful, in part due to the variety of virulence factors produced by this organism. S. aureus alpha-hemolysin (Hla) is a pore-forming toxin expressed by most S. aureu...
Pneumonia causes short- and long-term cognitive dysfunction in a high proportion of patients, although the mechanism(s) responsible for this effect are unknown. Here, we tested hypothesis that pneumonia-elicited cytotoxic amyloid tau variants: (1) present circulation during infection; (2) lead to impairment potentiation; and, (3) inhibit potentiation dependent upon tau. Cytotoxic species were r...
Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common cause of community-acquired pneumonia. However, it can also asymptomatically colonize the upper respiratory tract. Because of the need to distinguish between S. pneumoniae that is simply colonizing the upper respiratory tract and S. pneumoniae that is causing pneumonia, accurate diagnosis of pneumococcal pneumonia is a challenging issue that still nee...
