In one study fritillaria reduced airway inflammation by suppressing cytokines, histamines, and other compounds of inflammatory response.

Dust mite-induced signals are then propagated through epithelium, which enhance allergic airway inflammation.

Loss of this enzyme leads to enhanced allergic eosinophilic airway inflammation.

These microbial infections result in chronic lower airway inflammation, impaired mucociliary clearance, an increase in mucous production and eventually asthma.

Other treatment options may target airway inflammation or may promote mucus expectoration.

As a result, patients with severe structural airway disease, which leads to life-threatening airway obstruction, have a 50 per cent mortality rate if not treated successfully.

He recommended the operation only as a last resort in cases of airway obstruction by foreign bodies or secretions.

Indications for intubation include airway obstruction, inability to protect the airway, and respiratory failure.

In complex cases, an emergency tracheotomy may be required to prevent upper airway obstruction caused by edema in the neck.

It can cause chemical airway obstruction requiring hospitalization of the infant even in very dilute quantities.

Students are learning how to find the breastbone and tilt his flabby neck to clear his airway.

Paramedics also failed to clear his airway.

Suction may be used to clear the airway of blood, saliva, vomit, or other secretions so that a patient may breathe.

I got the driver out and cleared his airway.

He had a major operation three years ago to clear his airways, but since then simply seems to have grown out of the illness.

Fat deposits around the neck can also narrow the airway.

The weather could also play a part: cold air narrows the airways in lungs, making it difficult to breathe.

The condition narrows the airways, making it hard to breathe.

It can be used to measure nasal anatomical landmarks, nasal septum deviation, and nasal airway changes in response to allergen provocation tests.

Adenoids can also obstruct the nasal airway enough to affect the voice without actually stopping nasal airflow altogether.

Now they march in, chest out and nostrils flaring, to demonstrate their determined machismo and catarrh-free nasal airways.

Excessive consumption of dairy products by those susceptible to mucus build-up can raise the incidence or level of snoring, as it contributes to the restriction of the nasal airways.

He described that a long term adenoid hypertrophy will cause an obstruction of the nasal airways.

He also warned that the process of piercing could cause complications, including nerve damage and swelling that could obstruct the airway.

The resulting disease, known as gape or the gapes, occurs when the worms clog and obstruct the airway.

When a patient becomes unconscious, the muscles in the jaw commonly relax and can allow the tongue to slide back and obstruct the airway.

In the lungs thick sticky mucus obstructs the airways and forms a breeding ground for infection, and each infection causes progressive lung damage.

Prolonged airway stress can pull laryngeal walls inward, further obstructing the airway and causing swelling and irritation of the laryngeal membranes.

There was a mass of people giving him steroids and a nebulizer to help open his airway.

A special gumshield (mandibular advancement device) can help others by altering the position of the jaw to open the airway.

But a special tube was made to help hold open his airway enough to allow his body to grow living cells.

Check breathing - open the airway; tilt the head back and lift the chin.

Check breathing by tilting the head back (to open the airway) and look and feel for breaths.

Enlargement of the lower jaw brings the tongue forward, preventing it from obstructing the upper airway.

He essentially invented the modern science of endoscopy of the upper airway and esophagus, using hollow tubes with illumination (esophagoscopes and bronchoscopes).

Tracheal intubation can be associated with minor complications such as broken teeth or lacerations of the tissues of the upper airway.

In complex cases, an emergency tracheotomy may be required to prevent upper airway obstruction caused by edema in the neck.

Long term exposure to smoke and fog can be related to upper airway and voice symptoms.
