CD8+T lymphocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Papiris, S. A.; Kollintza, A.; Karatza, M.; Manali, E. D.; Sotiropoulou, C.; Milic-Emili, J.; Roussos, C.; Daniil, Z. (2007)Background. Recently it was shown that in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) tissue infiltrating CD8+ T lymphocytes (TLs) are associated with breathlessness and physiological indices of disease severity, as well as that ... -
Comparative analysis of phase difference estimation methods quantifying asynchronies between compartmental chest wall volume signals
Golemati, S.; Moupagiatzis, I.; Athanasopoulos, D.; Vasilopoulou, M.; Roussos, C.; Vogiatzis, I. (2009)Asynchronous breathing movements may be observed in the presence of pulmonary disease, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study was undertaken in an attempt to propose a reliable methodology to ... -
Glucocorticoid and Estrogen Receptors Are Reduced in Mitochondria of Lung Epithelial Cells in Asthma
Simoes, D. C. M.; Psarra, A. M. G.; Mauad, T.; Pantou, I.; Roussos, C.; Sekeris, C. E.; Gratziou, C. (2012)Mitochondrial glucocorticoid (mtGR) and estrogen (mtER) receptors participate in the coordination of the cell's energy requirement and in the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation enzyme (OXPHOS) biosynthesis, affecting ... -
Hemoglobin, erythropoietin and systemic inflammation in exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Markoulaki, D.; Kostikas, K.; Papatheodorou, G.; Koutsokera, A.; Alchanatis, M.; Bakakos, P.; Gourgoulianis, K. I.; Roussos, C.; Koulouris, N. G.; Loukides, S. (2011)Background: Systemic inflammation may represent a possible cause of anemia. Previous data support that anemic patients with COPD present high erythropoietin (EPO) levels, suggestive of EPO resistance, possibly mediated ... -
Intermittent recruitment with high-frequency oscillation/tracheal gas insufflation in acute respiratory distress syndrome
Mentzelopoulos, S. D.; Malachias, S.; Zintzaras, E.; Kokkoris, S.; Zakynthinos, E.; Makris, D.; Magira, E.; Markaki, V.; Roussos, C.; Zakynthinos, S. G. (2012)In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), recruitment sessions of high-frequency oscillation (HFO) and tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) with short-lasting recruitment manoeuvres (RMs) may improve oxygenation and enable ... -
The Medical Research Council chronic dyspnea score predicts the survival of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Manali, E. D.; Stathopoulos, G. T.; Kollintza, A.; Kalomenidis, I.; Emili, J. M.; Sotiropoulou, C.; Daniil, Z.; Roussos, C.; Papiris, S. A. (2008)Background: The Medical Research Council (MRC) chronic dyspnea scale (6-point) is used in different clinical conditions to grade breathlessness on daily activities. We have previously shown that in patients with histologically ... -
Plasma leptin and adiponectin in COPD exacerbations: Associations with inflammatory biomarkers
Krommidas, G.; Kostikas, K.; Papatheodorou, G.; Koutsokera, A.; Gourgoulianis, K. I.; Roussos, C.; Koulouris, N. G.; Loukides, S. (2010)Background: Various systemic inflammatory markers have been evaluated for their value in acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Leptin and adiponectin have been linked to acute exacerbations ...
