Evaluating Inflammatory Gene Expression Linked to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in Workers of the Nanoparticle Industries: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly used in industry for their unique properties. However, prolonged occupational exposure to common NPs like titanium dioxide (TiO₂), zinc oxide (ZnO), silver (Ag), and silica (SiO₂) may trigger systemic inflammation and contribute to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Molecular Mechanisms of Resistance and Treatment Efficacy of Delamanid Against Mycobacterium tuberculosis: A Systematic Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health problem, and treatment progress is increasingly threatened by rising multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB). Delamanid (DLM), a nitroimidazole drug, has shown good efficacy and safety against both drug‐susceptible and drug‐resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) strains.

Successful Sequential and Additive Drug Challenge With Rapid Oral Desensitization in Rifampicin‐Induced Fever

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
We report a 63‐year‐old man with active pulmonary tuberculosis who developed drug‐induced fever after commencing standard anti‐TB therapy. Sequential and additive drug challenge identified rifampicin as the offending agent. The patient subsequently underwent successful rapid oral rifampicin desensitization in an outpatient setting, enabling completion ...

Recurrent Pneumothorax With Bronchopleural Fistula in Primary Multidrug‐Resistant Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Challenging Case

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
A 41‐year‐old man with primary multidrug‐resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) developed recurrent pneumothorax and a bronchopleural fistula (BPF). Despite persistent air leak (PAL) after initial video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), definitive open thoracotomy with decortication and fistula repair led to sustained lung re‐expansion.

Prognostic Value of a Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing‐Derived Summed Score in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Connective Tissue Disease‐Associated Interstitial Lung Disease: A Prospective Cohort Study

Respirology, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 498-508, May 2026.
A cardiopulmonary exercise testing‐derived summed score effectively predicted mortality or lung transplantation risk in newly diagnosed interstitial lung disease. Higher summed scores (2–5) were associated with markedly lower event‐free survival rates.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Cough Frequency Monitors: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Respirology, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 459-470, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objective International guidelines emphasise the importance of objective cough assessment for evaluating therapeutic efficacy. Cough negatively impacts quality of life and generates high costs for healthcare systems. However, the accuracy of cough frequency monitors remains unclear.
