Effect of adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of nitric oxide synthase on vascular reactivity of rat isolated pulmonary arteries (2006)

Jiang, Leifu, Quarck, Rozenn; U0032950, Janssens, Stefan, Pokreisz, Peter; U0032789, Demedts, Maurice; U0008434, Delcroix, Marion; U0007588

Aerosol gene transfer of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS) to rat lungs increased NOS expression and activity, and prevented hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV)...

High-dose acetylcysteine in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (2005)

Demedts, Maurice; U0008434, Behr, Juergen, Buhl, Roland, Costabel, Ulrich, Dekhuijzen, Richard, Jansen, Henk M, ...

BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic progressive disorder with a poor prognosis. METHODS: We conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled multicenter study that assessed...

Femoral venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for severe reimplantation response after lung transplantation (2000)

Vlasselaers, Dirk; U0006248, Verleden, Geert; U0003461, Meyns, Bart; U0011101, Van Raemdonck, Dirk; U0015853, Demedts, Maurice; U0008434, Lerut, Antoon; U0004205, ...

Severe pulmonary reimplantation response after lung transplantation is not very common, although the mortality can be high. We present a patient who developed an extremely severe reperfusion injury...

Total respiratory resistance and reactance in patients with diffuse interstitial lung disease (1989)

Van Noord, J A, Clément, J, Cauberghs, M, Mertens, I, Van De Woestijne, K P, Demedts, Maurice; U0008434

In 54 patients with interstitial lung diseases and no signs of airway obstruction we measured lung volumes, maximal expiratory flows, diffusing capacity (DLCO), total respiratory resistance (Rrs) and...

Adult linear IgA bullous dermatosis with bronchial involvement (1987)

Verhelst, F, Demedts, Maurice; U0008434, Verbeken, Eric; U0018420, Mariën, K, Peeters, C

A 54-year-old man is described, suffering from adult linear IgA bullous dermatosis with involvement of the bronchial mucosa. The main respiratory symptoms were recurring haemoptysis, episodic...

Respiratory muscle dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematosus (1983)

Martens, J, Demedts, Maurice; U0008434, Vanmeenen, M T, Dequeker, Jan; U0010267

An assessment of pulmonary mechanics revealed weakness of inspiratory and expiratory muscles as cause of the restrictive ventilatory defect (vital capacity: 47 +/- 10 percent predicted) in seven...

Diaphragm dysfunction in mixed connective tissue disease. A case report (1982)

Martens, J, Demedts, Maurice; U0008434

A patient with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) presented the typical signs of respiratory muscle weakness and marked diaphragm dysfunction: reduced maximal ex- and inspiratory transrespiratory...
