Preschool wheeze is a public health issue. Disease control can be difficult to obtain in this population, in which no biologic therapy is indicated. We studied the evolution of severe preschool wheezers in real-life and identified the factors leading to no-control.

Although smoking-related interstitial lung diseases (SR-ILD) are a relatively rare group of entities, they are a relevant public health problem of growing importance, both because they affect young adults and because of their increasing prevalence in recent years due to increased tobacco consumption. In patients who smoke and have non-specific respiratory symptoms, SR-ILD should be ruled out, a term that encompasses a group of different entities in which the basis for diagnosis is the smoking history together with compatible respiratory functional findings, radiology and/or histology. An association has been established between tobacco smoke and a group of diseases that include respiratory bronchiolitis-associated interstitial lung disease (2%-3% of all ILD), desquamative interstitial pneumonia (<1%), Langerhans cell histiocytosis (3%-5%) and acute eosinophilic pneumonia.

Article Synopsis
  • Bronchiolitis is a major reason infants are hospitalized in their first year and is more common in babies born to mothers with asthma.
  • The study analyzed cord blood granulocytes (eosinophils and neutrophils) from 89 infants, examining their relationship to bronchiolitis hospitalization over the first year.
  • Results showed higher eosinophil levels in cord blood were linked to increased risk of bronchiolitis hospitalization, indicating that early immune cell profiles may affect vulnerability to this condition later on.

Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) vasculitis has diverse patterns of injury including microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA). Necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis (NCGN) occurs in all syndromes and as renal limited vasculitis (RLV). Single-dose intravenous ANCA IgG-specific for mouse myeloperoxidase (MPO) causes RLV in mice.

Background: Andrographolide sulfonate (Andro-S), a traditional Chinese medicine, is commonly used to treat pediatric respiratory tract infections in China. However, its therapeutic effects in infections caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) have not been reported. We thus aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of Andro-S using a mouse model of RSV infection-induced airway inflammation.
