Diagnostic value of impulse oscillometry in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a multicentre, retrospective, observational study. [PDF]
Objectives Diagnosis and assessment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) rely extensively on spirometry, which necessitates patient cooperation.

Repeatability of impulse oscillometry in patients with severe asthma
Impulse oscillometry (IOS) involves an effort independent tidal breathing manoeuvre to determine the presence or absence of small airways dysfunction (SAD), defined as raised peripheral airway resistance (difference in resistance between 5 and 20 Hz (R5-R20)) and/or raised peripheral airway reactance (area under the reactance curve (AX)) [1].

Currently, the analysis of respiratory function of lungs at suspicion of obstructive pulmonary diseases is recommended to start with spirometry as the most sensitive method of obstruction detection. However, data on informative value and specificity of a

Does size really matter:relationship of particle size to lung deposition and exhaled fraction [PDF]
We demonstrate that extra-fine particles are not associated with an appreciably higher exhaled fraction, hence explaining their efficacy profile in asthma.

The role of impulse oscillometry in assessment of airway obstruction in smokers and ex-smokers
Background: Impulse oscillometry provides useful clinical information that prominently includes functional assessment of small, peripheral airway behavior beyond that available from commonly used pulmonary function tests (PFT).

Abstract Background and Purpose Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) has broad biological functions in inflammation and immunity. The orally administered SYK inhibitor BI 894416 was investigated in a single‐rising‐dose Phase I study in healthy volunteers and in a combined single‐ and multiple‐rising‐dose Phase Ib study in patients with mild asthma ...

Exploratory study into the effect of abdominal mass loading on airways resistance and ventilatory failure [PDF]
Objective We hypothesised that the airway resistance during tidal breathing would correlate with a particular pattern of increasing obesity, particularly when supine, and would differ between participants with and without ventilatory failure.
