[Airway inflammation and peripheral airway function in asthmatic patients with different control levels].
To observe the airway inflammation and peripheral airway function in asthmatic patients with different control levels, and to investigate whether the airway inflammation profile detected by induced sputum reflects the peripheral airway dysfunction. ⋯ Even in asthma patients with controlled disease, eosinophilic inflammation in the airway was still present, and the eosinophilic inflammation became more severe with the decline of control level. Bronchodilatory effect caused by DI disappeared in asthmatic patients. The inflammation profile detected by induced sputum did not reflect the dysfunction of peripheral airways.

[The effect of intrapleural pingyangmycin administration on activity of fibrinolytic system and transforming growth factor-beta1 in malignant pleural effusion].
To observe the changes of the concentrations of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1), tissue-type plasminogen activator(t-PA), transforming growth factor-beta(1)(TGF-beta(1)) in peripheral blood and pleural effusion before and after intrapleural pingyangmycin administration, and therefore to investigate the mechanism by which pingyangmycin produces pleurodesis. ⋯ Intrapleural pingyangmycin administration is a safe and effective treatment for MPE. The mechanism of pleurodesis is related to inhibiting the activity of plasminogen in the pleural cavity.

[Changes of the characteristics of sleep apnea in heart failure patients and the associated factors].
To investigate the changes of the characteristics of sleep apnea in heart failure patients with periodic breathing disorder and to explore the influencing factors. ⋯ The characteristics of sleep apnea can change when periodic breathing happens in heart failure patients with OSA or CSA. The change can be affected by wake and sleep PtcCO(2), PBCL and LFCT, and possibly by heart function.

Review Case Reports[Giant cell interstitial pneumonia associated with hard metals: a case report and review of the literature].
To highlight the clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics of Objective To highlight the clinical, radiological and pathological characteristics of giant cell interstitial pneumonia (GIP) associated with Hard metals. ⋯ GIP is almost pathognomonic for hard metal lung disease. Meticulous history taking on occupational exposure is important for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of suspected interstitial lung disease.

[The oxygen kinetic effect of inhaled iloprost in pulmonary artery hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension].
To study the acute oxygen kinetic effect of inhaled iloprost in pulmonary artery hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. ⋯ There were hypoxemia and abnormality of oxygen kinetics in PAH and CTEPH patients. After inhaling Iloprost, pulmonary shunt increased without improvement in oxygen kinetics. Oxygenation should be monitored closely and supply oxygen supplied for CTEPH when inhaling Iloprost.
