Review Case Reports[Review of 2 cases of severe infection with pulmonary Strongyloides stercoralis].
To improve the understanding of pulmonary Strongyloides stercoralis. ⋯ The farmers were the main infected people. Patients with basic diseases or with immunosuppression due to long-term glucocorticoid treatment tend to infect and even die after the infection with Strongyloides stercoralis. Eosinophil granulocyte reduction shows poor prognosis, which needs early diagnosis and treatment.

[Fractional exhaled nitric oxide in bronchial inflammatory lung diseases].
To explore the change of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and its correlation with forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), the first second forced expiratory volume percentage of forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) in bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). ⋯ FeNO level is increased obviously in patients with asthma. The optimal cut off value of FeNO at 20.15 PPb can differentiate asthma and non-asthma with high sensitivity and specificity. FeNO is higher for the acute onset than non-acute, which may be useful to evaluate the control degree. FeNO level is increased in COPD patients in the acute exacerbations, but there is no change in stable COPD patients compared with the healthy subjects.
