Across
  1. 2. Permanent abnormal dilation of the bronchi caused by chronic infection and severe tissue destruction
  2. 4. High-pitched inspiratory sound indicating persistent upper airway narrowing at the subglottic level
  3. 6. Recurrent acute middle ear infection defined as three or more episodes in six months
  4. 7. Hair-like epithelial projections damaged by viral toxins leading to impaired mucociliary clearance
  5. 8. Experiencing multiple distinct respiratory infection episodes within a single year
  6. 10. Structural changes in airway architecture like goblet cell hyperplasia following chronic infection
  7. 12. Increased airway reactivity and bronchospasm triggered by mild stimuli post-infection
  8. 13. Excessive parenchymal scarring and stiffening of lung tissue following severe pulmonary infection
  9. 14. Post-infectious bronchiolitis type describing severe small airway fibrosis and luminal occlusion
  10. 15. Surgical intervention for severe recurrent pharyngitis meeting the Paradise criteria
Down
  1. 1. Childhood bacterial infection causing severe cough that can lead to structural bronchiectasis
  2. 3. Non-organic breathlessness or hyperventilation driven by acute health anxiety
  3. 5. Underlying primary or secondary immune impairment causing abnormally frequent infections
  4. 9. Acute pediatric viral infection affecting the subglottis leading to upper airway narrowing
  5. 11. Micro-entry of foreign material into lower airways leading to recurrent anatomical pneumonias
  6. 16. Transformation of ciliated columnar epithelium into stratified squamous tissue due to chronic irritation
