A review of medical records (1<sup>st</sup> January 2014-31<sup>th</sup> August 2022) of 1080 AR patients who underwent peripheral blood eosinophil count tests. Patients were stratified into elevated and normal eosinophil count groups. Daily meteorological data (mean temperature and relative humidity) and ambient pollutant levels (PM2.5, PM10, NO<sub>2</sub>, SO<sub>2</sub>, CO, and ozone [O<sub>3</sub>]) were collected. The mean pollutant levels and meteorological factors on the day of eosinophil count measurement were calculated separately for each group. Linear regression was performed to analyze the association between eosinophil counts and both meteorological factors and pollutant levels among AR patients. <b>Results:</b> In 1080 AR patients, 11.85% had elevated eosinophil counts.

Sex differences in disease susceptibility and survival have been observed in PAH patients, but few studies have analyzed the effect of changes in cell type and number on sex differences in PAH at the single-cell level. In this study, we performed a series of analyses on GSE169471 and GSE228644 datasets and found significant changes in the ratio of several types of cells in male PAH lung tissues. Surprisingly, we found that the ratio of macrophages in male PAH samples was 7 times higher than that in females. Consistently, the ratio of M1 macrophages was also significantly increased in male PAH samples. The different expression genes (DEGs) in macrophages were mainly involved in the ribosome pathway, which is closely related to cell proliferation. Inhibition of ribosomal protein L39 (RPL39), a core gene in the ribosome pathway, can inhibit macrophage proliferation and attenuate the sex differences in PAH. In conclusion, our study suggests that ribosome pathway-associated cell proliferation of macrophages might be associated with sex differences in PAH.</p>","PeriodicalId":9416,"journal":{"name":"Canadian respiratory journal","volume":"2025 ","pages":"7139235"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11824382/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143432578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
