Viral Detection and Clinical Disease Features in Pediatric Chronic Rhinosinusitis
ABSTRACT Objectives Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) results from complex host‐environment interactions with microbiome dysbiosis and viral infections postulated to drive inflammation and anatomic remodeling. This study investigates the impact of viral presence on pediatric sinonasal disease and clinical outcomes.

Lung Microbiome Diversity, Infection Dynamics, and Microbe‐Mediated Cross‐Protection
The protective role of the lung microbiome in maintaining respiratory health by promoting immune homeostasis, pathogen exclusion, and barrier integrity. Diverse microbial communities regulate immune maturation, enhance epithelial defenses, and contribute to antiviral responses, collectively preventing pathogen colonization and sustaining a balanced ...

Advances in the treatment of cystic fibrosis: CFTR modulators
Cystic fibrosis is a severe genetic disease caused by variants in the CFTR gene. Although it is a multisystem disease, respiratory involvement is the main cause of morbidity and mortality. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator modulator (CFTRm) therapies have advanced the treatment of this disease by improving function of this protein ...

Abstract Background In individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF), lean mass and muscle strength are important predictors of clinical outcomes. This study evaluated associations among body composition, handgrip strength, muscle quality, physical activity, and health‐related quality of life in CF. Methods This observational, cross‐sectional study included 27

Clinical Use of Home Spirometry in Children With Cystic Fibrosis
ABSTRACT Background The use of home spirometry (HSPIR) has increased in pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) care, but how it has been used clinically and its impact on clinical care have not been described. The purpose of this study was to address this knowledge gap through a secondary analysis of data from a HSPIR quality improvement project to ...
