Pulmonary fibrosis

fibrosi-polmonare-1

Pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic, debilitating and severe respiratory disease characterized by progressive deterioration and “scarring” of lung tissue, which reduce respiratory capacity and gradually make it more difficult to perform daily activities.

Pulmonary fibrosis belongs to a category of lung diseases called “pulmonary interstitiopathies” or “diffuse infiltrative pneumopathies,” comprising more than 200 different disease forms with often similar clinical features, many of which can evolve to pulmonary fibrosis.

With this maneuver, the apneist returns the eardrums to a neutral position, which, due to the external pressure, which reduces the volumes of the air zones of our body, would tend to introflex to the point of injury or rupture if they were not rebalanced. Ambient pressure, which increases with depth, causes a reduction in the volume of the aerial parts of our body (lesson 3), compensating the ears reconstitute the original volumes, keeping the eardrum in a neutral position.

Chlorine-organic insecticides

Chlor-organic insecticides include aldrin, dieldrin, endrin, dicophane and lindane. Because they are substances that resist chemical degradation, they can persist in the environment, and as a result, it is mandatory
