Age‐Dependent Correlation of Pulmonary Function Impairment and Aortic Arch Stiffness in Mice
Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.This study examined the relationship between aortic arch stiffness and lung function in aging mice. Multiple linear regression modeling showed moderate to strong correlations between the rise in aortic arch stiffness and changes in lung function as the mice progressively aged.

Rare Metals, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introducing oxygen vacancies has emerged as an essential strategy to affect the sensing properties of nanomaterials. However, existing methods for manipulating oxygen require high cost, complex operation, and harsh conditions. Herein, a simple NH4+‐assisted heat treatment approach was designed to regulate the concentration of oxygen vacancies ...

Classification of lung disease in HRCT scans using integral geometry measures and functional data analysis [PDF]
, 2010 A framework for classification of chronic lung disease from high-resolution CT scans is presented. We use a set of features which measure the local morphology and topology of the 3D voxels within the lung parenchyma and apply functional data classification

Respirology, EarlyView.This study investigated whether blood cell population data, in addition to cell counts, can identify clinically relevant COPD subgroups. Four distinct inflammatory profiles were identified with distinct clinical characteristics. Cell population data have the potential to provide additional insights beyond inflammatory cell counts and improve patient ...

Prevalence and Spirometric Transitions of PRISm and Obstruction: A Population‐Based Study
Respirology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Objective This study aims to assess the prevalence and longitudinal transitions of spirometric patterns defined by the lower limit of normal (LLN) criteria: normal airflow (FEV1/FVC≥LLN, FEV1 ≥ LLN); preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm; FEV1/FVC≥LLN, FEV1 < LLN); or obstruction (FEV1/FVC
