An unusual cause of chest pain

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: the tissue is such that we were unable to have an equal age distribution.We also acknowledge that the three age groups are made up of subjects from different areas, and that these are not longitudinal data.Despite the above limitations, we consider the large number of subjects, whose deaths were not respiratory related, and the wide age range included provides a strong basis for establishing the time of appearance and pattern of thickening that occurs to the bronchial RBM, and its positive relationship with epithelial height, during normal development.These data indicate that future paediatric and adult biopsy studies assessing RBM thickness should include age-matched controls.
