Background There is an emerging understanding that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) associated with increased incidence of pneumomediastinum (PTM). We aimed to determine its among patients hospitalised COVID-19 in the UK and describe factors outcome. Methods A structured survey PTM was conducted from September 2020 February 2021. UK-wide participation solicited via respiratory research networks. Identified had severe acute syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection radiologically proven PTM. The...

Abstract Single-cell multiomic analysis of the epigenome, transcriptome, and proteome allows for comprehensive characterization molecular circuitry that underpins cell identity state. However, holistic interpretation such datasets presents a challenge given paucity approaches systematic, joint evaluation different modalities. Here, we present Panpipes, set computational workflows designed to automate multimodal single-cell spatial transcriptomic analyses by incorporating widely-used...

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, the most abundant unconventional cells in lung, have been recently linked to tissue protection and repair. Their role, especially sterile lung injury, is unknown. Using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), spectral analysis adoptive transfer a bleomycin-induced we found that bleomycin activates murine pulmonary MAIT induces an accompanying repair programme, associated with protective role against injury. drive accumulation of type 1...

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are the most abundant unconventional in lung and have a recently-described function maintaining tissue homeostasis, indicating their potential role promoting pulmonary repair. It is not known what MAIT play during sterile damage, or functional consequences of repair capabilities lung. Using bleomycin-induced murine injury model, we show vivo that bleomycin challenge strongly activated induced program. cell-deficient Mr1-/- mice exhibited more...
