Asthma is universally considered a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways. Several noninvasive markers, such as exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and exhaled breath temperature (PletM), have been proposed to evaluate the degree of airway inflammation and

ABSTRACT Connective tissue disease‐associated interstitial lung disease (CTD‐ILD) comprises a heterogenous group of conditions characterised by immune‐mediated fibro‐inflammatory pulmonary injury. Although the disease course is variable, CTD‐ILD can progress to respiratory failure and thus has a profound impact on morbidity and mortality.

Summary Obstructive airway disease is associated with sleep disturbances. We aimed to assess the relationship between lung function and sleep disorder symptoms using cross‐sectionally collected data between March 2017 and August 2021 from the Undiagnosed Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Asthma Population study, a prospective community‐based ...

Long-term functional course of Sjögren's disease-associated interstitial lung disease
Background Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is common in primary Sjögren's disease (pSD); its functional course is poorly known. Our aim was to characterise the long-term functional course and prognosis in patients with pSD-ILD.

Relationship between diffusion capacity and small airway abnormality in COPDGene
Impaired single breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLCO) is associated with emphysema. Small airways disease (SAD) may be a precursor lesion to emphysema, but the relationship between SAD and DLCO is undescribed. We hypothesized that in mild COPD,

Dynapenia and Sarcopenia as Risk Factors for Mortality in Interstitial Lung Disease
ABSTRACT Background and Objective Fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Patients often exhibit impaired nutritional status and alterations in body composition, such as dynapenia and sarcopenia, which correlate with poor pulmonary function, reduced exercise tolerance and diminished quality of life ...

ABSTRACT Background and Objective Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic progressive lung disease with a poor prognosis. Antifibrotics slow the decline of pulmonary function after 12‐months, but limited studies have examined the role of circulatory biomarkers in antifibrotic treated IPF patients.

ABSTRACT Background and Objective The available evidence on the effects of ambulatory oxygen on exercise impairment in patients with fibrotic interstitial lung diseases (F‐ILD) is of limited quality. Methods We conducted a randomised, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled crossover trial with 32 normoxaemic F‐ILD patients, desaturating to ≤ 88% during a ...
