In a large Korean health-screening cohort, chest radiograph-derived age acceleration was associated with both prevalent and incident PRISm and obstructive lung disease, supporting chest X-ray AI as a potential opportunistic marker of early
In spontaneously breathing ARDS patients on pressure support ventilation, tidal recruitment/derecruitment was strongly linked to more negative end-expiratory transpulmonary pressure, greater collapse, and non-focal infiltrates, while EIT-gu
In Puerto Rican youth, an unhealthy diet was linked to higher odds of T17-high asthma, suggesting diet may influence asthma through immune pathways beyond allergy-related inflammation.
CT-derived pulmonary vascular metrics, especially the small-artery to total arterial volume ratio, identify severe pulmonary hypertension in chronic lung disease, with distinct vascular remodeling patterns in COPD and fibrosing ILD.
An international study found that electronic nose breath analysis can distinguish fibrotic interstitial lung disease subtypes with good accuracy, suggesting a promising noninvasive tool to support diagnosis.
An international multicenter study found that electronic nose breath analysis can help distinguish fibrotic interstitial lung disease subtypes with promising accuracy, offering a noninvasive diagnostic aid.
A multi-cohort study identified four reproducible 14-day oxygenation trajectory classes in persistent acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, with distinct mortality, biomarker patterns, and links to ARDS and hyperinflammatory subphenotypes.
In the phase 3A NIMBLE trial, switching biologic-responsive severe asthma patients to twice-yearly depemokimab preserved overall control and showed comparable safety, but formal noninferiority versus continued mepolizumab or benralizumab fo
In 37 North American hospitals, proning of eligible mechanically ventilated patients increased markedly during COVID-19, then fell post-pandemic, with substantial interhospital variation throughout.
A large pooled US cohort study found that COPD substantially reduces life expectancy, even among never-smokers, with years of life lost increasing progressively from GOLD stage 1 through stage 4.
A national SRTR analysis shows that transplant center geography still strongly influences effective donor access after CAS implementation, and the 2026 proximity-weighted amendment is likely to widen disparities, especially for biologically
Portable HEPA air cleaners plus motivational interviewing improved symptoms and quality of life in smokers with COPD by reducing indoor particulate matter, though lung function and exacerbations did not significantly change.
A randomized ICU trial found that sitting spontaneously breathing patients in an armchair for 3 hours improved oxygenation more than staying semi-recumbent in bed, with no serious adverse events.
In ambulatory patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome, automatically-adjusted noninvasive ventilation was as effective as manually adjusted NIV over 12 months and more cost-effective, offering a simpler path to treatment.
In CTEPH patients undergoing balloon pulmonary angioplasty, dual pulmonary hypertension-targeted pretreatment was linked to fewer thoracic complications and better 6-month clinical improvement than monotherapy.
In NTM-positive bronchiectasis, lower airway dysbiosis involving Mycobacterium and oral bacteria is linked to higher NET levels and more severe disease phenotypes, suggesting that the broader airway microbiome may shape inflammation and out
This pooled analysis found that CPAP may lower cardiovascular event risk mainly in patients with high-risk obstructive sleep apnoea, especially those with stronger heart-rate surges or greater oxygen deprivation during sleep.
In a randomized trial, a 40 g intraduodenal whey bolus increased amino acid availability but did not significantly raise postprandial muscle protein synthesis versus 20 g in critically ill ventilated adults.
A large analysis suggests the predicted body weight equation overestimates lung size in critically ill women, increasing the risk of higher driving pressures and contributing to excess mortality under standard tidal-volume targeting.
A comprehensive evidence-based synthesis of the REMAP-CAP trial and major international RCTs, demonstrating that ivermectin fails to improve clinical outcomes, survival, or organ support requirements in hospitalized and non-hospitalized COV
