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, EarlyView.
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.

Automatic Emphysema Detection using Weakly Labeled HRCT Lung Images [PDF]

, 2018
A method for automatically quantifying emphysema regions using High-Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scans of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that does not require manually annotated scans for training is presented.

Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 799-808, April 2025.
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

Home Spirometry for Post-COVID Recovery: A Clinical Validation Study of an Ultrasonic Device

Diagnostics
Background/Objectives: Patients recovering from COVID-19 often experience persistent respiratory symptoms, necessitating pulmonary function monitoring. While clinical spirometry is the gold standard, home spirometry offers a remote alternative.

Multivariate linear regression to predict association of non‐invasive arterial stiffness with cardiovascular events

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1141-1150, April 2025.
Abstract Background Arterial stiffness is a crucial factor in determining an increase in systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure and can also predict the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between arterial stiffness and future CVD.

Knowledge and practice of spirometry among pediatricians in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2008
Background: Spirometry is the most basic, widely used and effort-dependent pulmonary function test. It assesses the lung volumes and flows, and is ideally suited to describe the effects of restriction or obstruction on lung function.

Breathing SPACE – a practical approach to the breathless patient. [PDF]

, 2016
Breathlessness is a common symptom which may have multiple causes in any one individual and causes which may change over time. Breathlessness campaigns encourage people to see their GP if they are unduly breathless.
