The Evolution of Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis for Pediatric Patients With Extracranial Solid Tumors: A Review of Historical Insights and Future Directions

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) remains a modern‐day complication for pediatric patients receiving treatment for extracranial solid tumors (ST), highlighting the need for reconsideration of our current approach toward PJP prophylaxis. This critical review aims to evaluate both universal and risk‐stratified approaches to PJP prophylaxis ...

Arterial stiffness in adults with steady-state bronchiectasis: association with clinical indices and disease severity

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background Cardiovascular disease are common co-morbidities in bronchiectasis and contribute substantially to disease burden and mortality. Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), a measure of arterial stiffness, has a strong predictive value for ...

A Novel Method Using Dual‐Energy Computed Tomography for Detecting Amiodarone‐Induced Lung Injury: A Cohort Pilot Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
There is no gold standard for detecting amiodarone‐induced‐lung injury (AILD). Dual‐Energy‐Computed‐Tomography (DECT) depicts iodine deposition in lungs abnormalities and the liver. We found a substantial correlation between the DECT assessment of AILD and comprehensive clinical evaluation of AILD. DECT can assist in the diagnosis of AILD.

Prognostic Value of a Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing‐Derived Summed Score in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Connective Tissue Disease‐Associated Interstitial Lung Disease: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
A cardiopulmonary exercise testing‐derived summed score effectively predicted mortality or lung transplantation risk in newly diagnosed interstitial lung disease. Higher summed scores (2–5) were associated with markedly lower event‐free survival rates.

Increased bronchiectasis risk and related risk factors in inflammatory bowel disease: a 10-year Korean national cohort study

open access: yesERJ Open Research
Background The association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and an increased risk of bronchiectasis, as well as contributing factors, remains unclear. Additionally, whether bronchiectasis increases disease burden in IBD remains unknown. Therefore,
