Enrichment of lung microbiome with supraglottic taxa is associated with increased pulmonary inflammation [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The lung microbiome of healthy individuals frequently harbors oral organisms. Despite evidence that microaspiration is commonly associated with smoking-related lung diseases, the effects of lung microbiome enrichment with upper airway taxa on

Role of the impulse oscillometry in the evaluation of tracheal stenosis
Introduction and objectives Tracheal stenosis is a rare and challenging disease. Bronchoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis and assessment but brings inherent risks.

Application of impulse oscillometry in cystic fibrosis patients
Impulse oscillometry (IOS) measures the total respiratory system impedance (Z) at incremental frequencies during normal tidal breathing. Our aim was to establish the total respiratory impedance and how IOS measurements relate to conventional lung function indices in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF).
