Muco-Obstructive Lung Diseases
New England Journal of Medicine, 2019 A spectrum of lung diseases that affect the airways, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia, and non–cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, can be characterized as muco-obstructive diseases. These diseases have the clinical features of cough, sputum production, and episodic exacerbations that are ...

Diet and Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]
Epidemiologic Reviews, 2001 The results presented in this review suggest that the impact of nutrition on obstructive lung disease is most evident for antioxidant vitamins, particularly vitamin C and, to a lesser extent, vitamin E. By decreasing oxidant insults to the lung, antioxidants could modulate the development of chronic lung diseases and lung function decrement ...
