Inflammatory cytokines can be monitored in exhaled breath particles following segmental and inhalation endotoxin challenge in healthy volunteers

Scientific Reports, 2022
Particles in exhaled air (PEx) are generated when collapsed small airways reopen during breathing. PEx can be noninvasively collected by particle impaction, allowing the analysis of undiluted epithelial lining fluid (ELF).

Relationship between concavity of the flow-volume loop and small airway measures in smokers with normal spirometry

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background There is increasing evidence of small airway abnormalities in smokers despite normal spirometry. The concavity in the descending limb of the maximum expiratory flow curve (MEFV) is a recognised feature of obstruction and can provide ...
