Abstract:
Influenza remains a severe respiratory illness that poses significant global health threats. Recent studies have identified distinct microbial communities within the respiratory tract, from nostrils to alveoli. This research explores specific anti-influenza respiratory microbes using a mouse model supported by 16S rDNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomics. The study found that transferring respiratory microbes from mice that survived H9N2 influenza to antibiotic-treated mice enhanced infection resistance. Notably, the levels of Aeromicrobium were significantly higher in the surviving mice. Mice pre-treated with antibiotics and then inoculated with Aeromicrobium camelliae showed reduced infection severity, as evidenced by decreased weight loss, higher survival rates, and lower lung viral titres. Metabolomic analysis revealed elevated LysoPE (16:0) levels in mildly infected mice. In vivo and in vitro experiments indicated that LysoPE (16:0) suppresses inducible nitric oxide synthase (INOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) expression, enhancing anti-influenza defences. Our findings suggest that Aeromicrobium camelliae could serve as a potential agent for influenza prevention and a prognostic marker for influenza outcomes.Keywords:

Background: Respiratory infections account for the majority of acute illness in children. Infections are influenced by the age of the child, the season, living conditions, and preexisting medical problem. Infections often spread from one structure to another because of the contiguous nature of the mucous membrane lining the entire tract.Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the high risk of diabetic foot among diabetic patients.Objectives: 1. To assess the prevalence respiratory tract infections among under five children. 2. To identify the risk factors of respiratory tract infections among under five children. 3. To find out association between the prevalence respiratory infections and the selected demographic variables.Methodology: 100 under five children from rural area, Chemudugunta at Nellore were selected by using convenient sampling method.Results: Regarding the among 100 samples 50%(50) have no respiratory tract infection, 1%(1) have mild respiratory tract infection, 15%(15) have moderate respiratory tract infection and 34%(34) have severe respiratory tract infection.

To evaluate whether norovirus (NoV) can be a possible cause of respiratory tract infection, 562 nasopharyngeal samples collected from children admitted for influenza-like illness were tested for NoV. Three (0.5%) were positive NoV GII.4. The data show that NoV can be found in the respiratory secretions of children with respiratory symptoms and that respiratory involvement can precede gastrointestinal manifestations.

Tobacco smoke can alter both the structural and the immunologic defenses of the lungs against infection. The gases from smoke can also inhibit repair of the damages they create. Smokers have been found to have increased bacterial adherence to the respiratory tract, decreased IgA and IgG, and a decrease in vital capacity two to three times greater than that of nonsmokers. These and other respiratory tract alterations put smokers at an added disadvantage when acute lower respiratory tract infections strike. A history of smoking influences the diagnosis of respiratory tract infections because smokers are more prone than nonsmokers to infection by certain organisms. The major causes and characteristics of lower respiratory tract infections, methods of outpatient diagnosis, and the pros and cons of various modes of therapy are discussed.

This study was conducted to determine the characteristic response of Sprague-Dawley rats to formaldehyde (HCHO) challenges to the lower respiratory tract, and whether these response patterns are altered in rats that have received repeated exposures to HCHO. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 0, 0.5, or 15 ppm HCHO for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week, for 8 or 16 weeks. Both naive rats and rats repeatedly exposed to HCHO were then administered 30 ppm HCHO test challenges by tracheal exposure, with the minute volume, respiratory rate, and tidal volume responses monitored. The pulmonary response of naive rats to HCHO tracheal challenge involved the correlation of minute volume and tidal volume depression, while respiratory rate was either unaffected or slightly increased. This was also the response pattern for rats that received 8 weeks of repeated exposure to HCHO. The only significant difference in respiratory response patterns between naive and pre-exposed animals existed in a slight increase in the respiratory rate compensatory response in the rats pre-exposed for 16 weeks to 15 ppm. There was substantial recovery of initially depressed respiratory parameters during the tracheal challenge in both naive and pre-exposed rats. The characteristic pulmonary response to HCHO in the lower respiratory tract demonstrated for Sprague-Dawley rats was thus similar to patterns of lower respiratory response to HCHO reported for other rodent species.
