Abstract: The lungs are vital for exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide, providing oxygen to cells for energy production, and removing waste carbon dioxide from the body.They also help filter and ...

Introduction: This study systematically investigated the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and lung function, incorporating Z-scores, thereby offering a novel approach to lung function ...

Researchers uncovered how lung cells decide whether to rebuild tissue or fight infection. This built-in “switch” may be the key to restoring the lungs’ natural repair ability. The discovery could lead ...

Rationale Despite significant advances in patient care and outcomes, criteria for cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in risk stratification guidelines for lung resection have not been updated in ...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) can weaken the muscles that support breathing, leading to respiratory issues and a higher risk of complications such as lung infections and respiratory failure.

A nanobody-based technology can precisely identify and attack lung cancer cells—sparing surrounding healthy tissue. This is the promise of researchers at the Bio-Nano Research Center at the Korea ...

In sum – what to know: New small cells deployed in Cornwall – O2 and Freshwave have installed new small cells in St Ives and Newquay, aimed at improving coverage in high-traffic areas ahead of peak ...
