ICS/LABA Combined in One Inhaler vs LAMA Compared for Efficacy, Safety in COPD
There were no statistically significant differences in mortality rates, rates of COPD exacerbations, lung inflammation, or serious adverse events between a once-daily combined inhaled corticosteroid/LABA and LAMA.
Relationship Between Atopic Disorders May Be Age Dependent
Although allergic sensitization and hay fever rates increased as children grew older, the rates of asthma dropped.
Six-Point Risk Factor Score Predicts Hypoxemia During Tracheal Intubation
Oxygen saturation at induction and acute hypoxemic respiratory failure were the risk factors most strongly associated with lower oxygen saturation.
Salvage Therapy for Recurrent SABR-Treated Early-Stage NSCLC Increases Survival
Salvage treatment for recurrence of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer after initial treatment with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy improved patient survival.
Asthma Control Not Improved With School-Supervised Inhaled Corticosteroid Use
In a population of primarily Latino children from low-income households, a program of school-supervised use of once-daily inhaled corticosteroids failed to improve asthma control.
Interstitial Lung Disease Diagnosis Improved Using Rheumatologic Assessment
Adding routine rheumatologic assessments to interstitial lung disease diagnosis could reduce the need for invasive procedures and improve diagnostic accuracy.
Asthma Affected Differently by Subcutaneous and Visceral Abdominal Fat
Significant negative correlations were seen between visceral fat area and bronchial lumen diameter and lumen area, and significant positive correlations were seen between subcutaneous fat area and bronchial wall area and total area.
Tidal Breathing Fails to Identify Premature Infants at Risk for Respiratory Disease
Although preterm infants had abnormal tidal breathing measurements, significant differences were not found to be associated with postdischarge respiratory disease.
COPD Has Altered Deposition of Inhaled Nanoparticles
In patients with emphysema, deposition fraction was significantly lower than in other individuals, but no significant differences were found between healthy never smokers and current or former smokers.
