Title: [Clinical and ultrastructural evaluation of nasal mucociliary function in HIV-positive patients. Preliminary investigation]. Author: Armengot M, Climent B, Carda C, Ortega E, Basterra J. Journal: Acta Otorrinolaringol Esp; 1997; 48(1):27-30. PubMed ID: 9131922. Abstract: Nasal mucociliary transport was studied in 33 HIV-positive patients with different stages of infection. Ciliary ultrastructure was studied in 8 of these cases. At the time of study, 24 patients had respiratory infections. Disturbances in mucociliary transport were found in 25 cases. In 6 of the 8 studies of ciliary ultrastructure, changes in the ciliary axonema were found, particularly in the central and peripheral microtubules.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
