Streamlining antibiotic use in community acquired pneumonia: A quality improvement initiative

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence suggests a 3‐day total duration and early transition to oral therapy is safe in hospitalized patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP)—though such care is not standard in the United States. To implement these evidence‐based practices, a multidisciplinary group led by a hospitalist and antimicrobial stewardship ...

Detection of cytokines in nasal lavage samples of patients with cystic fibrosis: comparison of two different cytokine detection assays

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic multisystem disorder. Inflammatory processes, which presumably begin early in infancy, play a crucial role in the progression of the disease. The detection of inflammatory biomarkers, especially in the airways,

Comparison of Single‐Breath and Multi‐Breath Xe‐MRI in the Longitudinal Assessment of Treatment in Children With Cystic Fibrosis

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a current standard therapy for pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF). Multiple‐breath washout 129Xe MRI (MBW Xe‐MRI) is improved following 1 month of treatment. However, the utility of MBW Xe‐MRI over extended ETI treatment and its comparison to single‐breath Xe‐MRI and pulmonary function tests ...

MRI for Lung Cancer Management: Any Closer to Clinical Application?

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Management of lung cancer (LC) encompasses screening, diagnosis, staging, radiotherapy planning and guidance, therapy monitoring and surveillance. Across these domains, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a range of morphological and functional imaging capabilities—including diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI), dynamic contrast‐enhanced (DCE)

Impact of 5‐ASA discontinuation in children with ulcerative colitis on biologic therapy: A propensity score‐matched study

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives 5‐Aminosalicylic acid (5‐ASA) is recommended as a first‐line medication in mild to moderate ulcerative colitis (UC), but indications regarding its use in children with moderate to severe disease treated with biologics are lacking.

Retrospective chart review of immobilized lipase cartridge use in children with short bowel syndrome

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract This retrospective, single‐center chart review studied the use of an in‐line, immobilized lipase cartridge (ILC) in children with short bowel syndrome (SBS) at Children's Mercy Hospital. For parenteral nutrition (PN)‐dependent patients, the primary endpoint was enteral feeding progression, evaluated by comparing monthly change from baseline in

Efficacy of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis patients with a single pathogenic CFTR mutation: a retrospective cohort analysis

ERJ Open Research
Introduction It has previously been established that there is an increased incidence of mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene amongst patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB).

Success of transition to adult care in patients with pediatric‐onset chronic liver disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Previous studies on chronic pediatric‐onset conditions have highlighted the risks of loss to follow‐up, disease progression, or therapeutic nonadherence during transition. However, very few studies have focused on liver diseases.

Real-world improvement in ultra-low-dose thoracic computed tomography scores, systemic inflammatory markers and patient-reported outcome measures after elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor treatment

ERJ Open Research
Background Clinical trials with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) in people with cystic fibrosis were associated with significant improvements in % predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1 % pred), sweat chloride, weight and quality of life ...
