Background: Severe and critical COVID-19 is characterized by pulmonary viral infection with SARS-CoV-2 resulting in local and systemic inflammation. Dexamethasone (DEX) has been shown to improve outcomes in critically ill patients; however, its effect on tissue remodeling, particularly collagen turnover, remains unclear. This study investigated the association between circulating extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling neo-epitopes and COVID-19 severity, their relationship with mortality, and the effect of DEX on these markers.

Polycystic kidney and hepatic disease 1-like protein 1 (PKHD1L1) is predicted to encode a large type I transmembrane protein involved in hearing transmission and mediating cellular immunity under physiological conditions. However, its role in cancer progression, especially in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we observed significantly lower expression of PKHD1L1 in LUAD tissues than in normal lung tissues on the basis of the integration of public datasets from the TCGA and GEO cohorts.

Background: Bronchial asthma is a global health problem in particular a respiratory condition characterized by broncho spasms that negatively affect the quality of life (QOL) of children. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the health-related quality of life of asthma in children in Ethiopia, and the study area.
Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the health-related quality of life among asthmatic children aged 7-17 in selected hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Objective: Research on the inequality of chronic respiratory disease (CRD) is limited, and the association between CRD and all-cause mortality is not well-established. Investigating the distribution of CRD and its associated mortality risks is essential for improving CRD conditions and developing targeted intervention measures. This study aimed to explore the relationship between inequalities in CRD and all-cause mortality in China.
