The previous guidelines for asthma management from NICE recommended FeNO testing alongside other objective tests, such as spirometry and peak flow. A FeNO reading of over 40 parts per billion (ppb) in adults and 35 ppb in children suggested a diagnosis of asthma if carried out with a positive spirometry or peak flow result. ...
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating disease characterized by progressive scarring of the lungs, which severely impairs lung function over time. Developing effective treatments for IPF has been a challenge for the medical community, as the mechanisms driving this disease are complex and not fully understood. To accelerate drug discovery, animal models that closely mimic the ...
The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has driven renewed interest in alternative treatments, including phage therapy. A recent study by Yang, F., et al (2024) explores the potential of bacteriophage therapy for treating multi-drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infections using humanized mouse models. This study highlights the efficacy of phage DS6A in reducing Mtb load ...
