I don't know, but when I spoke to her, she said she had already passed the mucus plug.

我不知道，但是我和她通话时她说已经通过了粘液塞。

Inflamed airways along with atelectasis and air trapping due to mucus plugs can lead to difficulty breathing and hypoxia.

气管产生炎症，以及黏液栓导致的肺不张以及气体潴留，会导致呼吸困难和缺氧症。

In addition, dead cells and mucus slide into the airway forming mucus plugs which can trap air behind the plug.

此外，坏死的细胞和黏液滑入气管形成黏液栓，并将空气堵在栓后。

Sometimes, the mucus plugs end up acting like one way valves, allowing air to enter, but not escape the bronchioles.

有时，黏液栓会形成一个单向阀，空气能进去却出不来。

But when I spoke to her, she said she'd already passed the mucus plug.

我们说话的时候，她说黏液栓子已经脱落了。

This is because the mucus plugs in the airways block air flow, right, which causes the partial pressure of CO2 to increase in the lungs.

这是因为黏液阻塞了气道导致气流无法通过，对吧，这导致了肺里的二氧化碳分压增高。

As a result of having too much mucus and poorly functioning cilia, people with chronic bronchitis end up relying on coughing to get rid of their mucus plugs.

因为有太多痰液集聚，纤毛的功能也变差，慢支病患者只能靠咳嗽来排除阻塞的痰液。

Mucus plugs can be particularly dangerous because they not only block exchange of air, but they also block inhaled medications from getting to the site of inflammation.

粘液栓塞是非常危险的，因为它们不仅阻断了气体的交换，而且还阻止了吸入式药物抵达炎症部位。

Occasionally in the sputum there might be curschmann spirals, which are spiral shaped mucus plugs or basically elongated mucous casts from small bronchi of people with bronchial asthma.

偶尔在痰中可能会有库什曼螺旋晶体，也就是螺旋形的粘液栓，或是本质上是支气管哮喘患者的小支气管塑成的细长粘液。

And finally another consequence of mucus plugging in chronic bronchitis is that people can develop lung infections behind the mucus blockages in the airway, and these infections can worsen the pulmonary and cardiac symptoms.

慢性支气管炎中黏液阻塞导致的另一个后果是患者气道中黏液阻塞的后方可能会产生肺部感染，这又会加重肺部与心脏的症状。

Zooming into the cervix, there are two openings, a superior opening up top, and an inferior opening down below, both of which have mucus plugs to keep the uterus closed off except during menstruation and right before ovulation.

子宫颈有两个开口：上方开口朝上，下方开口朝下；两个开口都有粘液栓，保持子宫呈密闭状态，只有在月经期间及排卵前开放。
