Comparison of the chest computed tomography findings between patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and those with Mycobacterium avium complex lung disease
ConclusionsChest CT findings would therefore be useful for distinguishing PTB and MACLD when typical findings are observed. (Source: Respiratory Investigation)

Deterioration of high-resolution computed tomography findings predicts disease progression after initial decline in forced vital capacity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients treated with pirfenidone
ConclusionsWe revealed that deterioration of HRCT findings may predict disease progression after the initial decline in %FVC in IPF patients treated with pirfenidone. (Source: Respiratory Investigation)

Inhibitory effects of glycopyrronium, formoterol, and budesonide on coronavirus HCoV-229E replication and cytokine production by primary cultures of human nasal and tracheal epithelial cells
ConclusionsThese findings suggest that glycopyrronium, formoterol, and a combination of glycopyrronium, formoterol, and budesonide inhibit HCoV-229E replication partly by inhibiting receptor expression and/or endosomal function and that these drugs modulate infection-induced inflammation in the airway.

A superior vena cava aneurysm discovered by chance at regular physical examination
Publication date: Available online 20 February 2020Source: Respiratory InvestigationAuthor(s): Yasuhiro Nakajima, Toshiyuki Minami, Hirotoshi Ishigaki, Eirou Sakai, Ryo Takahashi, Takashi Yokoi, Kozo Kuribayashi, Takashi KijimaAbstractA superior vena cava (SVC) aneurysm is a rare disease that can be confused with upper mediastinal tumor. A 57-year-old female visited our hospital regarding an abnormal shadow in her mediastinum on a chest X-ray. Upon closer examinations, which included three-dimensional computed tomography, we diagnosed it as a SVC aneurysm. Since her SVC aneurysm was regarded as fusiform type at low risk of...
