This dataset represents the information collected during the claims management process. It contains information about the number of claims received, actions taken, decisions and compensation by state.
-
Background: A helium-oxygen gas mixture (heliox) has low gas density and low turbulence and resistance through narrowed airways. The effects of heliox on pulmonary mechanics...
-
The lung is the product of a set of complex developmental interactions between two distinct tissues, the endodermally derived epithelium and the mesoderm. Each tissue contributes to lung...
-
Exposure of the airways to cigarette smoke (CS) is the primary risk factor for developing several lung diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). CS consists of a complex...
-
Pulmonary surfactant is a surface active material composed of both lipids and proteins that is produced by alveolar type II pneumocytes. Abnormalities of surfactant in the immature lung or in the...
-
Background The heterogeneity of conditions underlying respiratory distress, whether classified clinically as acute lung injury (ALI) or the more severe acute respiratory distress...
-
Proteinase-3 (PR-3) is a neutral serine proteinase present in azurophil granules of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes and serves as the major target antigen of antineutrophil cytoplasmic...
-
Multiple techniques including, x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, laser diffraction particle analysis, and inductively coupled plasma spectrometry, were used to characterize the...
-
Growth factors mediate tissue interactions and regulate a variety of cellular functions that are critical for normal lung development and homeostasis. Besides their involvement in lung pattern...
-
Chorioamnionitis is frequently associated with preterm deliveries before 30 weeks gestation. Chorioamnionitis correlates both with an increased risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and with a...

Although bronchogenic carcinomas progress through a very well defined sequence of metaplasia, dysplasia and carcinoma in situ, very little is known about the early progression of glandular...
-
Background: In order to test the hypothesis that inhaled nitric oxide (NO) reverses the pulmonary hypertension induced by αα-diaspirin crosslinked hemoglobin (ααHb), were studied...
-
Background Because cells progressing to cancer must proliferate, marker proteins specific to proliferating cells may permit detection of premalignant lesions. Here we compared the...
-
Background: Recent investigations have shown that leukocyte activation is involved in the pathogenesis of ventilator-associated lung injury. This study was designed to investigate...
-
Background It is known that tissue and serum sialic acid levels may be altered by malignant transformation. In this study, sialic acid levels were determined in bronchoalveolar lavage...
-
The aim of our research is to clarify the mechanisms generating heterogeneity in response to C-ion irradiation that arise from individual genetic variations in humans. In this study we performed...
