Respirology, EarlyView.Identifying impaired lifetime lung function trajectories is key to identifying the preclinical phase of COPD (Pre‐COPD) or prognosis of COPD. We have identified that some circulating established COPD biomarkers differ across ‘pre‐COPD’ lung function trajectories, suggesting that some COPD‐specific pathobiological processes, including inflammation, are ...

Clinical Outcomes and Acute Exacerbation Incidence in Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema
Respirology, EarlyView.This multicentre prospective study of 1016 patients demonstrated that CPFE, defined as ≥ 5% emphysema on visual CT assessment, identified a high‐risk phenotype with significantly worse 5‐year survival compared to non‐CPFE IIP patients (51.4% vs. 63.1%) and COPD patients (51.4% vs. 84.0%) and higher acute exacerbation incidence, validating international

Respirology, EarlyView.Analysing the population‐based KORA and SHIP studies, three spirometric at‐risk subtypes (early airflow limitation, PRISm, and small airway dysfunction) were consistently associated with incident airflow limitation. Their combination in a conceptual framework identified most future cases with high negative predictive value, suggesting potential for ...

Detection of Post- Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Bronchiolitis Obliterans Syndrome (BOS)-The Use of Airway Oscillometry. [PDF]
Pediatr PulmonolABSTRACT Background Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is a devastating complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) characterized by onset of obstructive lung disease. Oscillometry is a novel pulmonary function assessment technology which superimposes pressure waves on normal tidal breathing, and the alterations in ...

Pharmacist Provided Spirometry Services: A Scoping Review
, 2021 PURPOSE: Despite international guidelines' recommendations, spirometry is underutilized in the diagnosis and management of asthma and COPD. Spirometry may be an opportunity for trained pharmacists to meet the needs of patients with suspected or diagnosed

Respirology, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that the Single Time Point Prediction score, a novel machine learning–based imaging biomarker, along with established quantitative CT measures, is significantly associated with disease progression in non‐IPF ILD. This imaging metric may enable earlier identification of high‐risk patients and support personalised treatment ...

Respirology, EarlyView.We tested whether ICS escalation after a single moderate COPD exacerbation improved outcomes according to exacerbation treatment phenotype. ICS reduced future exacerbations only in steroid‐treated events, not antibiotic‐treated events. This study supports phenotype‐guided escalation after one moderate exacerbation, avoiding overtreatment with precise ...
