Lung Inflammation in Health and Disease, Volume I

Respiratory diseases are leading causes of death and disability globally, with about 65 million people suffering from COPD, and 334 million from asthma, the most common chronic disease. Each year, tens of millions of people develop and can die from respiratory infections such as pneumonia and TB. Sy...
