Pulmonary Tuberculosis


Pulmonary TB, also known as consumption, spread widely as an epidemic. The bacterium My cobacterium tuberculosis causes tuberculosis (TB), a contagious, airborne infection that destroys body tissue. Pulmonary TB occurs when M. tuberculosis primarily attacks the lungs. However, it can spread from there to other organs. Pulmonary TB is curable with an early diagnosis and antibiotic treatment. People with latent TB aren’t contagious and have no symptoms because their immune system is protecting them from getting sick. But it is possible for latent TB to develop into active TB. Most people with the germ have up to a 15 percent lifetime risk Trusted Source of getting sick with TB. The risk can be far higher if you have conditions that compromise your immune system such as HIV infection. When you start showing symptoms, you may become contagious and have pulmonary TB.

E-cigs Raise Risk of Chronic Lung Disease, Especially in Those Who Also Smoke

Image
Using e-cigarettes significantly increases the risk of developing chronic lung diseases like asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a study found. Dual users — those who smoke tobacco and use e-cigarettes — are at an even higher risk than people with only one of these habits. Previous studies have suggested that e-cigarettes can kill cells in the lungs, reduce the organ’s immune response, and trigger inflammation. Cross-sectional studies also found a link between the use of e-cigarettes, known as vaping, and chronic lung disease. However, since these studies only examine one point in time, it was impossible to determine if vaping increased the risk of lung diseases, or if people with lung diseases were more likely to use e-cigarettes. The team analyzed publicly available data from the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH), which tracked e-cigarette and tobacco use, as well as newly diagnosed lung disease in more than 3

Respiratory System

Image
Special Sessions on Respiratory System The respiratory system is the organs and other parts of your body involved in breathing, when you exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide. When you breathe in, your diaphragm pulls downward, creating a vacuum that causes a rush of air into your lungs. Inhalation and exhalation are how your body brings in oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide. The process gets help from a large dome-shaped muscle under your lungs called the diaphragm. Parts of the Respiratory System Your respiratory system includes your: Nose and nasal cavity Sinuses Mouth Throat (pharynx) Voice box (larynx) Windpipe (trachea) Diaphragm Lungs Bronchial tubes/bronchi Bronchioles Air sacs (alveoli) Capillaries Larix International invites all the participants from all over the globe to attend Global Meet on COPD and Respiratory Disorders will be held in Paris, France during 21-24 April 2020.Kindly submit your abstract by using following link or Mail and Please
