Different storage conditions affect microbial profiles in samples of chicken caecal chyme and lung by Jing Wang, Bo Zhang, Ying Li, Minjuan Rui, Hao Zhang, Jiajun Yang

“…The pulmonary and caecal samples stored at −80℃ and −196℃ had reduced the bacterial diversities compared with those in the control and at −20℃ as suggested by the linear discriminant analysis. In conclusion, samples of the lung and caecal chyme stored at −20℃ for 7 days can promote the colonisation of microbiota, leading to inaccurate sequencing data. …”

Exacerbation of asthma and neutrophil-dominated airway inflammation in patients with cold-induced airway hyperresponsiveness by A. B. Pirogov, A. G. Prikhodko, E. Yu. Afanaseva, E. G. Sheludko, Ya. G. Gorchakova, X. Zhou, Q. Li, Yu. M. Perelman

“…At the end of treatment, the ACT score was 22.0 (17.0; 24.5) (p = 0.037), FEV1 was 96.2 ± 2.9% (p = 0.038), the number of neutrophils in IS decreased, but remained high enough (40.0 ± 5.5%; p = 0.048); and the number of eosinophils did not change. A linear regression equation was made reflecting the relationship between the initially high number of neutrophils in the sputum, other cellular elements in the sputum, the level of asthma control, and the degree of severity of the bronchial response after a bronchoprovocation test with CAIH.Conclusion. …”
