Shear Wave Elastography to Assess Respiratory Muscle Function in Congenital Myopathies

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 1, Page 103-110, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Respiratory muscle dysfunction is prevalent in congenital myopathies and often leads to respiratory failure. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) measures tissue elasticity and has been proposed as an alternative to invasive measures of respiratory muscle contractility.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Agonist vs. Placebo and Pulmonary Decline After Open‐Heart Surgery: A Substudy of the GLORIOUS Randomised Clinical Trial

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative pulmonary decline is an established complication of open‐heart surgery extending beyond the immediate postoperative phase. Inflammation‐mediated lung damage and ischaemia‐reperfusion injury secondary to extracorporeal circulation is a proposed pathophysiological driver. GLP‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RA) have emerged as

Technologies for equine welfare and performance monitoring under field conditions – Where do we stand?

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 872-888, July 2026.
Abstract The need for comprehensive equine welfare assessments has become particularly evident amid ongoing debates about the social licence to operate in equestrian sports. During exercise, multiple physiological systems, principally the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular, thermoregulatory, endocrine, and locomotory systems, undergo complex ...

Remote Monitoring in Myasthenia Gravis: Exploring Symptom Variability

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 1106-1117, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a rare, autoimmune disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle weakness and potential life‐threatening crises. While continuous specialized care is essential, access barriers often delay timely interventions. To address this, we developed MyaLink, a telemedical platform for MG patients.

An Evaluation of Mortality Rates and Their Determinants in a Cohort of Former Asbestos Miners in South Africa

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 446-460, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background A causal association between occupational asbestos exposure and lung disease, including pneumoconiosis and mesothelioma, is well established. Elevated mortality among former asbestos miners is expected. However, large‐scale South African studies examining all‐cause mortality in this population are lacking.

Work‐Related Asthma From Exposure to Cardboard and Paper Products

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 482-488, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background We assess the contribution of cardboard dust exposure to the development of work‐related asthma (WRA). Prior studies on paper‐dust‐related breathing problems have focused on exposures in the paper milling and pulp industries. There have been no reports of asthma linked to workplace exposure to cardboard dust.

Long‐Term Outcomes of Reduced‐Intensity Conditioning Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Systemic Sclerosis With Impaired Cardiac Function

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 6, Page 1294-1305, June 2026.
Objective High‐intensity conditioning autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is standard of care for patients with advanced systemic sclerosis (SSc). The role of reduced‐intensity conditioning (RIC) before AHSCT in this population remains unclear.

Long‐term impact of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/ivacaftor on pulmonary, nutritional and metabolic outcomes in homozygous F508del cystic fibrosis patients: A real‐world cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 6, Page 1822-1832, June 2026.
Aim Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) has markedly improved cystic fibrosis (CF) outcomes. However, its long‐term impact on nutrition, metabolism and liver health remains underexplored. We assessed 30‐month changes in pulmonary, nutritional, metabolic and inflammatory markers in people with CF (PwCF) homozygous for F508del.

Severe Post‐Tuberculosis Bronchiectasis With Bullous Lung Disease Complicated by Acute Infective Exacerbation: A Case Report From Uganda

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We report a case of severe post‐tuberculosis lung disease (PTLD) in a 60‐year‐old Ugandan man with a six‐year history of suboptimally treated pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), who presented with a three‐week history of productive cough, yellow foul‐smelling sputum occasionally streaked with blood, dyspnea, pleuritic chest pain, fatigue and ...
