Comparative biology of the normal lung
This guide presents a simple and concise approach to the HRCT diagnosis of diffuse lung disease. Using a clear, reader-friendly approach, the book presents the fundamental insights and facts necessary to interpret HRCT in any clinical setting.
Cotes' lung function
High-resolution CT of the lung
by Müller, Nestor Luiz, Webb, W. Richard, Naidich, David P.
This title covers the use of high-res computed tomography for diagnosis and assessment of diffuse lung diseases. This reference offers a thorough grounding in HRCT interpretation, offering the latest technical and clinical data, including recent advances in the classification an…
The central nervous system, which includes the brain and spinal cord, has a high metabolic demand. The physiology of the brain is such that it is easily affected by alterations in other systems, which in turn can compromise cerebral blood flow and oxygenation. Together the brain…

3-Methylindole (3MI) is a selective pneumotoxicant that induces lung injury in all test animals. 3MI's pneumotoxicity is largely dependent on P450 bioactivation to produce 3-methyleneindolenine (3MEI). 3MEI is an unstable reactive intermediate that can readily alkylate macromole…
The overall aim of the research described in this thesis was to evaluate the effect of vitamin A supplementation on respiratory health, assessed by lung function in children aged 6–9 years. It comprises three studies. The first study determined the magnitude of vitamin A deficie…
