Empirical life course lung function trajectories from ages 4–80 using data from eight cohort studies in Europe and Australia.
Study of five European cohorts found no association between residential greenness or urban green space and lung function throughout childhood and adolescence.
Un estudio reciente en Osona (Cataluña) refleja que 20,7% de jóvenes presenta alteraciones espirométricas. También revela síntomas y factores de riesgo en la población joven ambulatoria.
Protocolised treatable trait-based asthma management was acceptable to patients not under the care of a severe asthma clinic, associated with significant clinical benefit, and a full trial appears feasible.
Siprometry to diagnose COPD: GOLD 2025 recommends using pre-BD spirometry to rule out COPD and post-BD to confirm, ensuring volume responders are not overlooked.
Airway mucous plugging is associated with exacerbations, lung function decline, and mortality in COPD, asthma, and bronchiectasis. Identifying it as a treatable trait may improve patient outcomes through airway clearance techniques and pharmacological strategies.
Airflow limitation can worsen or improve from school age to adulthood at all severity levels. This study examines lung function changes and the impact of BMI and wheezing, highlighting key health interventions.
Survivors of preterm birth face increased risks of respiratory diseases, yet awareness among specialists is low. This study examines gaps in long-term care, highlighting the need for clear follow-up guidelines and improved communication between medical teams.
Discover the normal ranges of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) across different age groups in a respiratory healthy population. Based on 2,251 participants, this study identifies factors like age, body height, and eosinophil counts that influence FeNO levels.
Explore the causes of reduced FEV1 in early adulthood, with data from Lifelines and BAMSE cohorts. Findings highlight PRISm and airflow limitation origins, early identification in childhood, and differentiated clinical implications.
