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.

Descubre los avances en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de la EPOC con el Dr. Alvar Agustí en la II Jornada SEMG Resprimaria. Conoce la importancia de la espirometría, la detección precoz y las nuevas estrategias terapéuticas.

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.

Artificial Intelligence in COPD is transforming disease management, from underdiagnosis to treatment guidance. Discover how machine learning clusters patients, predicts outcomes, and optimizes healthcare resources.

Explore the complex pathophysiology of bronchiectasis, including airway infection, chronic inflammation, and mucociliary dysfunction. Learn how genomic approaches, proteomics, and epigenomics offer new insights into disease endotypes and patient stratification for improved therapies. Discover the role of trained innate immunity in complementing current models.

Aspergillus-associated disorders in bronchiectasis, based on data from the EMBARC Registry. ABPA, AS, and AB: Impact on disease severity, diagnostic criteria efficacy, etc.

Marked differences in peripheral blood immune cell gene expression were observed between bronchiectasis patients and healthy controls.
Transcriptomic changes were associated with disease severity and airway inflammation identifying potential novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
