It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.Pulmonary Disease, Chronic Obstructive: A disease of chronic diffuse irreversible airflow obstruction. Subcategories of COPD include CHRONIC BRONCHITIS and PULMONARY EMPHYSEMA.Viral Vaccines: Suspensions of attenuated or killed viruses administered for the prevention or treatment of infectious viral disease.Fever: An abnormal elevation of body temperature, usually as a result of a pathologic process.Influenza in Birds: Infection of domestic and wild fowl and other BIRDS with INFLUENZA A VIRUS. Avian influenza usually does not sicken birds, but can be highly pathogenic and fatal in domestic POULTRY.Bordetella pertussis: A species of gram-negative, aerobic bacteria that is the causative agent of WHOOPING COUGH. Its cells are minute coccobacilli that are surrounded by a slime sheath.Disease Progression: The worsening of a disease over time. This concept is most often used for chronic and incurable diseases where the stage of the disease is an important determinant of therapy and prognosis.Mucous Membrane: An EPITHELIUM with MUCUS-secreting cells, such as GOBLET CELLS. It forms the lining of many body cavities, such as the DIGESTIVE TRACT, the RESPIRATORY TRACT, and the reproductive tract. Mucosa, rich in blood and lymph vessels, comprises an inner epithelium, a middle layer (lamina propria) of loose CONNECTIVE TISSUE, and an outer layer (muscularis mucosae) of SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS that separates the mucosa from submucosa.Phenotype: The outward appearance of the individual. It is the product of interactions between genes, and between the GENOTYPE and the environment.Swine: Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).Host-Pathogen Interactions: The interactions between a host and a pathogen, usually resulting in disease.Bacteria: One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and ARCHAEA), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls, multiply by cell division, and exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal. Bacteria can be classified by their response to OXYGEN: aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic; by the mode by which they obtain their energy: chemotrophy (via chemical reaction) or PHOTOTROPHY (via light reaction); for chemotrophs by their source of chemical energy: CHEMOLITHOTROPHY (from inorganic compounds) or chemoorganotrophy (from organic compounds); and by their source for CARBON; NITROGEN; etc.; HETEROTROPHY (from organic sources) or AUTOTROPHY (from CARBON DIOXIDE). They can also be classified by whether or not they stain (based on the structure of their CELL WALLS) with CRYSTAL VIOLET dye: gram-negative or gram-positive.Follow-Up Studies: Studies in which individuals or populations are followed to assess the outcome of exposures, procedures, or effects of a characteristic, e.g., occurrence of disease.Genitalia, Female: The female reproductive organs. The external organs include the VULVA; BARTHOLIN'S GLANDS; and CLITORIS. The internal organs include the VAGINA; UTERUS; OVARY; and FALLOPIAN TUBES.Recurrence: The return of a sign, symptom, or disease after a remission.Virulence Factors: Those components of an organism that determine its capacity to cause disease but are not required for its viability per se. Two classes have been characterized: TOXINS, BIOLOGICAL and surface adhesion molecules that effect the ability of the microorganism to invade and colonize a host. (From Davis et al., Microbiology, 4th ed. p486)DNA, Bacterial: Deoxyribonucleic acid that makes up the genetic material of bacteria.Respiratory Physiological Phenomena: Physiological processes and properties of the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM as a whole or of any of its parts.Pasteurella multocida: A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria normally found in the flora of the mouth and respiratory tract of animals and birds. It causes shipping fever (see PASTEURELLOSIS, PNEUMONIC); HEMORRHAGIC BACTEREMIA; and intestinal disease in animals. In humans, disease usually arises from a wound infection following a bite or scratch from domesticated animals.Haemophilus: A genus of PASTEURELLACEAE that consists of several species occurring in animals and humans. Its organisms are described as gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, coccobacillus or rod-shaped, and nonmotile.Bacterial Proteins: Proteins found in any species of bacterium.Chlamydophila pneumoniae: A species of CHLAMYDOPHILA that causes acute respiratory infection, especially atypical pneumonia, in humans, horses, and koalas.Azithromycin: A semi-synthetic macrolide antibiotic structurally related to ERYTHROMYCIN. It has been used in the treatment of Mycobacterium avium intracellulare infections, toxoplasmosis, and cryptosporidiosis.Bordetella: A genus of gram-negative, aerobic bacteria whose cells are minute coccobacilli. It consists of both parasitic and pathogenic species.

Asthma16
  • Bronchial asthma is an inflammatory disease of the airways which causes their narrowing with consequent breathing difficulties (dyspnea). (steadyhealth.com)
  • Based on the origin of the disease, it can be classified as allergic and non-allergic asthma. (steadyhealth.com)
  • Asthma care has increasingly focused on personalised management for severe asthma, and recognition of the role and importance of comorbid conditions has increased. (mja.com.au)
  • associated comorbid conditions often play a key role in the significant disease morbidity and frequently contribute to a severe and difficult-to-treat asthma phenotype. (mja.com.au)
  • A diagnostic and management algorithm for comorbid conditions in severe asthma is outlined. (mja.com.au)
  • They often contribute to a severe and difficult-to-treat asthma phenotype. (mja.com.au)
  • Teasing apart the different components of comorbidity in severe asthma can be difficult, and general practitioners are often confronted by complexity that may seem beyond the scope of everyday care. (mja.com.au)
  • 4 This has important implications for therapy, as outlined elsewhere in this supplement in the article on the diagnosis of severe asthma. (mja.com.au)
  • We also outline a simplified, iterative approach to assessing and managing comorbid conditions in severe asthma. (mja.com.au)
  • In conducting this review, we searched English language literature in PubMed using the key words severe asthma, comorbidity, treatment and management. (mja.com.au)

  • Here, we report a case of a 32-month-old male with a previous history of asthma, who developed respiratory failure two weeks after onset of cough and rhinorrhea and required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for 9 days after failing high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV). (hindawi.com)
  • Here, we present the case of a thirty-two-month-old immunocompetent boy with HMPV-induced respiratory failure and a history of asthma who was supported with ECMO and survived. (hindawi.com)
  • Asthma is a common long-term inflammatory disease of the airways of the lungs. (wikipedia.org)

  • Comorbidity is the presence of one or more diseases or disorders occurring concurrently with a primary disease or disorder. (mja.com.au)
  • Human-produced toxins in the soil have cancer causing elements and can also lead to lung and kidney disease as well as liver damage, skin diseases, respiratory disorders, and birth defects for pregnant women. (prweb.com)
  • This can be secondary to cancer, severely low platelet counts (platelets are the blood cells that aid in blood clotting), or severe inflammatory disorders of the gut. (petplace.com)
  • Severe combined immunodeficiencies (SCIDs) are genetic disorders characterized by blocked T-lymphocyte differentiation or function and often are associated with abnormal development of other lymphocyte lineages (B cells and natural killer [NK] cells). (arupconsult.com)
  • Hemolytic disease results from the hereditary or acquired acquisition of abnormal forms of hemoglobin or from abnormalities of the red blood cell membrane in disorders such as sickle cell anemia , thalassemia , or acquired hemolytic anemias. (britannica.com)
HMPV4
  • Discovered in 2001, HMPV is in the paramyxovirus family along with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). (cdc.gov)
  • Surveillance data from CDC's the National Respiratory and Enteric Virus Surveillance System (NREVSS) shows HMPV to be most active during late winter and spring in temperate climates. (cdc.gov)
  • Since HMPV is a recently recognized respiratory virus, healthcare professionals may not routinely consider or test for HMPV. (cdc.gov)
  • This case highlights three critical points: the potentially fatal causative role of HMPV in respiratory failure in an older pediatric age group of immunocompetent hosts, the importance of early recognition of impending respiratory failure, and the timely utilization of ECMO. (hindawi.com)

  • Chickenpox (also called varicella) is a common and extremely infectious childhood disease that also affects adults on occasion. (encyclopedia.com)
  • The period during which infected people are able to spread the disease is believed to start one or two days before the rash breaks out and to continue until all the blisters have formed scabs, which usually happens four to 7 days after the rash breaks out but may be longer in adolescents and adults. (encyclopedia.com)
  • Again, the most severe cases of the disease tend to be found among older children and adults. (encyclopedia.com)
  • Although aggressive disease is more common in children, adults can still potentially develop an aggressive form of the disorder. (rarediseases.org)
  • Early detection of some neglected tropical diseases will allow more children to continue school and adults to work while reducing the costs associated with treating more advanced forms of these diseases. (who.int)
