Improvements With Tiotropium Maintenance Therapy in COPD Patients Without Dyspnea. [PDF]
In a post hoc analysis of the Tie‐COPD trial, including 305 patients with mild‐to‐moderate COPD and no dyspnea (mMRC 0), 2 years of tiotropium improved lung function, lowered the annual exacerbation rate, and delayed the first clinically important deterioration, indicating benefit beyond symptom relief in a group not currently offered maintenance ...

Updates in COPD Management: From Inflammatory Pathways to Targeted Therapies. [PDF]
COPD is a heterogeneous disease driven by overlapping neutrophilic and eosinophilic inflammatory pathways. This review highlights the shift from symptom‐based treatment toward phenotype‐ and biomarker‐directed care. Blood eosinophils, FeNO, and IgE predict corticosteroid responsiveness and identify candidates for biologic therapy.
