Inter‐ and Intra‐Rater Reliability of 4D‐CT Versus Bronchoscopy in Diagnosing and Grading Tracheomalacia

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Bronchoscopy and 4D‐CT are used to grade tracheomalacia severity, though reliability across raters and specialties has been unclear. In this multi‐institutional, multidisciplinary survey study, endoscopic assessment showed higher inter‐ and intra‐rater reliability than 4D‐CT, though both modalities demonstrated substantial‐to‐almost‐perfect agreement ...

Evaluating the Local Response of a Novel Injectable Capsule for Drug Delivery in the Trachea

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
A novel PLGA polymer capsule was developed for localized pretracheal drug delivery and evaluated for short‐term local tissue safety in a rabbit model. Implant placement was confirmed by ultrasound and was well tolerated over 14 days, with preservation of airway patency, native tracheal architecture, and biomechanical properties.

Subglottic jet ventilation versus supraglottic jet ventilation for flexible bronchoscopy: a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology
Background Jet ventilation technique can be used to supply oxygen to prevent hypoxia for patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy. An optimal access route for jet ventilation technique during flexible bronchoscopy has not been determined. Our aim was to

Diagnostic Yield of EBUS Mediastinal Cryobiopsy Versus TBNA in Suspected Lymphoproliferative Disorders: A Prospective Multicentre Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
We assessed the diagnostic yield of EBUS‐guided transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS‐TBMC) compared with EBUS‐transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS‐TBNA) in patients with suspected mediastinal lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs). EBUS‐TBMC was superior to EBUS‐TBNA and achieved a high diagnostic yield in patients with suspected mediastinal ...

Effect of Dupilumab on Airway Inflammation in Patients With Persistent Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
EXPEDITION (NCT02573233) assessed the effects of dupilumab on airway inflammation in patients with persistent asthma using bronchoscopy and gene expression analysis. Dupilumab showed no appreciable effect on inflammatory cell types in biopsies or BALF samples.
