Recent Progress in Treating Airway Mucus Hypersecretion by Targeting the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Signaling Pathway

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Asthma, chronic pulmonary obstructive disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, and acute respiratory infections are severe respiratory conditions that significantly contribute to global morbidity and mortality. Airway mucus hypersecretion is an important common pathophysiological and clinical manifestation of these diseases and is closely associated ...

Prevalence and Spirometric Transitions of PRISm and Obstruction: A Population‐Based Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective This study aims to assess the prevalence and longitudinal transitions of spirometric patterns defined by the lower limit of normal (LLN) criteria: normal airflow (FEV1/FVC≥LLN, FEV1 ≥ LLN); preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm; FEV1/FVC≥LLN, FEV1 < LLN); or obstruction (FEV1/FVC

Pre-Analytical Factors Affecting Extracellular DNA in Saliva

open access: yesDiagnostics
Salivary DNA is widely used for genetic analyses because of its easy collection. However, its extracellular fraction in particular, similar to the extracellular DNA (ecDNA) in plasma, could be a promising biomarker for oral or systemic diseases.

A Novel Method Using Dual‐Energy Computed Tomography for Detecting Amiodarone‐Induced Lung Injury: A Cohort Pilot Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
There is no gold standard for detecting amiodarone‐induced‐lung injury (AILD). Dual‐Energy‐Computed‐Tomography (DECT) depicts iodine deposition in lungs abnormalities and the liver. We found a substantial correlation between the DECT assessment of AILD and comprehensive clinical evaluation of AILD. DECT can assist in the diagnosis of AILD.

Can Patient Education Lead the Way? Head‐To‐Head Comparison of EXACT and CERT for Early Recognition of Acute COPD Exacerbations

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
Daily head‐to‐head comparison of EXACT vs. CERT for early detection of acute COPD exacerbations. Both tools accurately identified exacerbations at diagnosis (AUC≈0.9), but CERT detected worsening one day earlier (p = 0.006). CERT's simplicity and free access support rapid patient self‐monitoring and may enable timely intervention.
