Immunopharmacology represents the boundary between the immune system and chemical mediators of the inflammatory and neuroendocrine responses. The subject as applied to the respiratory system embraces most of the common non-malignant lung diseases of which asthma and allied disorders are the most prevalent. An understanding of the underlying mechanisms of the disorders provides rationale for prevention and drug treatment as well as creating opportunities for novel drug development. This volume embraces all of these principles and should enable the reader to become rapidly updated in an area of

Cardiorespiratory fitness reflects the ability of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems to transport oxygen to the working muscles of the human body during exercise. It is influenced by factors such as age, genetic structure, body composition, and gender. This book provides the reader with interesting and current data about cardiorespiratory fitness. Chapters cover such topics as pulmonary rehabilitation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, ischemic preconditioning, metabolic syndrome in adults, cardiorespiratory fitness and intellectual disability, influence of lifestyle on body composition, and effect of exercise on cognitive performance in the elderly.

In this chapter, we will discuss the design and development of a patient passport mHealth application for Cystic Fibrosis adults from ideation to app-store release. By allowing the patients access to their own unique data, it is anticipated that it will be of benefit when travelling abroad and between CF centres. The design process followed a pipeline we developed that is informed by patient and healthcare professional input. The app structure resembles an Irish patient file and is divided into three categories: "My CF Info", "My Medical History", and "My Clinical Appointments". My CF Info allows the patient to store personal information such genotype, medical team contact information, physiotherapy, allergies, and medications. My Medical History allows the user to record information such as CF renal disease, CF diabetes, and the insertion/removal of a portacath/gastrostomy tube. My Clinical Appointments allows the user to record the type of appointment (annual assessment, clinic, other) and all information that would ordinarily be inserted into a patient file such as weight, height, spirometry and other comments. Weight and lung function are also displayed in a plot graph. The app has undergone pilot testing with five CF adults before being rolled out onto the Google Play Store.

Questo libro riporta lo stato dell’arte delle più comuni malattie dell’apparato respiratorio. La prima parte è dedicata all’anatomia del polmone, alla regolazione della respirazione e alla meccanica respiratoria, seguita dall’esame funzionale del paziente respiratorio e dalla diagnostica invasiva e non invasiva, inclusa la diagnostica per immagini in pneumologia. Nella descrizione delle malattie particolare importanza è stata data nel chiarire il "perché" dei diversi sintomi e segni clinici mentre l’approccio terapeutico, confrontato con le linee guida internazionali, fa comunque riferimento alla vasta esperienza clinica degli autori. L’obiettivo principale di questo libro è quindi quello di riportare le più recenti acquisizioni nella fisiologia, fisiopatologia e clinica delle malattie dell’apparato respiratorio, inclusa la ventilazione meccanica non invasiva, l’ossigenoterapia e la riabilitazione respiratoria, e di combinare una chiara descrizione della fisiopatologia respiratoria con enfasi alla sua applicazione clinica. Il volume è rivolto sia agli studenti del corso di laurea specialistica in medicina e chirurgia, sia agli specializzandi in malattie dell’apparato respiratorio. Rappresenta inoltre un valido riferimento per il medico di medicina generale, soprattutto quando quest’ultimo intenda aumentare le proprie conoscenze cliniche, diagnostiche e terapeutiche nel settore delle patologie respiratorie, branca che sempre più frequentemente coinvolge il medico e lo specialista nella risoluzione di casi anche molto complessi.
