Tracheal and airway disorders

Airway Diameter-Matched Injury Improves Severity and Reproducibility of Experimental Rabbit Tracheal Stenosis

This study shows that matching injury tool size to measured airway diameter in rabbits improves tracheal stenosis severity and reproducibility, while body weight is not a reliable surrogate for airway size.

Transcriptional profiling sheds light on the fibrotic aspects of idiopathic subglottic tracheal stenosis

This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to identify fibrotic processes in idiopathic subglottic stenosis, highlighting profibrotic fibroblasts, Schwann cells, and plasma cells.
