Abstract:

Master of Science<br>Department of Clinical Sciences<br>Daniel U. Thomson<br>Acute Interstitial Pneumonia (AIP) is a costly issue that affects feedlot cattle, especially during hot and dry summers. Research has yet to elucidate the exact etiology of AIP; therefore this study was conducted to determine possible factors that contribute to AIP in feedlot cattle. During the summer of 2011 in a 55,000 head feedyard in southwest Kansas, animals exhibiting clinical signs of AIP were selected for ante-mortem examination and data collection. The animal population within the feedlot consisted of 75%

Abstract:

Uncontrolled oxygen is often administered to breathless patients regardless of whether hypoxaemia is present. In acute exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (AECOPD) this may result in carbon dioxide (CO2) retention and worsening respiratory failure in some patients. In AECOPD the main mechanism is the release of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and an increase in the physiological dead space to tidal volume ratio (VD/VT). Acute asthma and pneumonia have features in common with AECOPD, namely significant ventilation – perfusion mismatch; and there is the potential for CO2 re

Abstract:

We have established a murine model of pneumococcal pneumonia in order to characterise the host inflammatory response. Intranasal infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae resulted in constant bacterial loads within airways of susceptible mouse strains whilst the pathogen burden increased in both the lung tissues and bloodstream. The bacteria induced inflammation that was evident as perivascular cell recruitment in histological sections. Mast cell granule staining indicated that this population degranulated early in the inflammatory response, releasing TNFa into the lung environment. Levels of TN

Abstract:

A stroke is a life-changing event for a patient and his or her family. The acute stroke patient is at risk for developing aspiration pneumonia, whether silent or overt. Prevention of pneumonia in this population requires timely completion and documentation of the bedside swallow screen to identify those patients at risk for aspiration pneumonia; however, anecdotal data from the emergency department at the site of this project suggested that completion and documentation of the screening were inconsistent. Guided by the quality caring model adopted by the project site as well as the logic model,

Introduction: Pneumonia is a common complication of acute stroke, occurring in up to one quarter of cases. Those who develop post-stroke pneumonia are at an increased risk of death or poor functional recovery. Despite significant advances in the treatment of stroke in the last few years uncertainty remains regarding the frequency of post-stroke pneumonia. Whether prophylactic antibiotics are effective, and the appropriateness of other management strategies to improve stroke outcomes, remains uncertain.

Abstract:

Silent aspiration is associated with pneumonia and mortality, and is poorly identified by traditional clinical swallowing evaluation (CSE). Currently, there is no reliable test for detecting silent aspiration during CSE. There is, however, increasing evidence for the validity of cough reflex testing (CRT) for identifying silent aspiration. This test has the potential to significantly improve clinical assessment of dysphagia. The aim of this research programme was to further investigate the validity, reliability and clinical utility of CRT for identifying patients at risk of silently aspirating

Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) are two respiratory conditions unique to mechanically ventilated patients.

The pathogenesis of ARDS is well understood but when the internationally agreed consensus criteria are employed, the histological hallmarks are absent about half the time, indicating a disconnection between the clinical diagnosis and what is known

Abstract:

Abstract Patients with acute drug poisonings are common in emergency departments and hospitals. Patients typically ingest medical products, most commonly psychotropic drugs that lead to intoxication. The outcome is usually good and hospital stays are short, even among patients requiring intensive care. Complications such as aspiration pneumonia can prolong hospital stays. Acute mortality is low (usually less than 5%) but repetition of self-harm is common and long-term mortality is high.

Methods: Daily Scottish mortality data (1980-2011) was matched to measurements from local fixed site pollution (Black smoke, PM10, PM2.5, SO2, & NO2) and temperature monitors.

Abstract:

Neutrophils are innate immune cells that form part of the first line of defense against pathogens. These cells are rapidly mobilised in response to infection and inflammation and are equipped with a range of pathogen destruction mechanisms. In recent years it has been demonstrated that neutrophils can also modulate innate and adaptive immune responses. Neutrophils have been found to enter secondary lymphoid organs including lymph nodes, however the phenotype and function of neutrophils in lymph nodes is not well understood. Work in this thesis utilised an acute pulmonary infection model with t

Abstract:

Die Untersuchung organspezifischer Funktionsstörungen erlangt zunehmende Bedeutung für die moderne Intensivmedizin. Das akute Lungenversagen gehört dabei zu den wichtigsten Vitalfunktionsstörungen. Besonders bei entzündlichen Lungenschädigungen kann es zu Veränderungen des pulmonalen Sauerstoffmetabolismus kommen. In der vorliegenden klinischen Untersuchung sollte geprüft werden, ob der intrapulmonale Sauerstoffverbrauch durch methodenbedingte Unterschiede bei der Bestimmung des globalen Sauerstoffverbrauchs des Organismus, zwischen der indirekten Kalorimetrie und dem Fick´schen-Prinzip, repr

Abstract:

碩士<br>中國醫藥大學<br>臨床醫學研究所碩士班<br>101<br>Introduction A link between infection and the incidence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has been suggested. The reason of infection leading to ACS maybe explained by increased inflammation, hemoconcentration, imbalance between oxygen demand and supply. Of all bacterial infections, pneumonia is mostly associated with the development of ACS.Streptococcus pneumonia is the most common causative pathogen of community acquired pneumonia, and Streptococcus pneumonia infection is asscociated with clinically severe form of pneumonia. However, relatively few studies

Abstract:

Pneumonia and sepsis are distinct but linked public health concerns. Each condition is the leading cause of the other; however, the responses controlling the susceptibility between the two disease processes remain speculative. The acute phase response (APR) is an important component of the host immune response during pneumonia and sepsis, and primarily driven by the activation of hepatocyte transcription factors NF-κB RelA and STAT3. While the NF-κB pathway is essential for inflammation and hepatocyte function, its inactivation has been associated with hepatotoxicity. Liver injury is an ind
