Pseudomonas aeruginosa phenotypes associated with radiological severity in non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis
Abstract Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), the most significant respiratory pathogen in patients with non-cystic fibrosis (CF) bronchiectasis, exhibits various phenotypes in vitro. We hypothesized that PA phenotypes are associated with radiographic severity in adults with non-CF…

Evaluation of a Particle Enhanced Turbidimetric Immunoassay (PETIA) for detecting calprotectin in sputum samples
Abstract Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and cystic fibrosis (CF) are characterized by persistent airway inflammation and airflow limitation. Measuring airway inflammation may be of value both in research and clinical practice. Calprotectin, a protein associated with…

Isoniazid-induced alopecia in isoniazid-monoresistant pulmonary tuberculosis
Abstract Introduction Alopecia is a rare adverse reaction during tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Both drug-resistant TB and isoniazid (INH)-induced alopecia have been reported. We present this case because INH monoresistance coexisting with INH-induced alopecia has not previously been described in the…

Clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of mepolizumab for COPD with type 2 inflammation
Abstract Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Approximately 20–40% of patients exhibit eosinophilic inflammation; a phenotype linked to higher exacerbation risk. Mepolizumab, an anti-IL-5 biologic, has shown clinical…

Demographic, clinical, and immunological features in combined immunodeficiency patients: a comparative analysis of those with and without pulmonary manifestations – a multicenter study from Iran
Abstract Background Combined immunodeficiency (CID) involves profound defects in B and T lymphocyte development and function. This study examined clinical and immunological phenotypes of CID patients with and without pulmonary manifestations. Methods This retrospective multicenter study included 53…

Bronchoscopic closure of intubation-related bronchopleural fistulas using combined argon plasma coagulation and fibrin glue: a case series
Abstract Background Bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication, particularly following endotracheal intubation and prolonged mechanical ventilation. Delayed diagnosis or inadequate management may result in persistent air leakage, recurrent infection…

Clinical, laboratory, and MRI features differentiating tuberculous and pyogenic spondylodiscitis: a propensity score–matched analysis
Abstract Background Differentiating tuberculous spondylodiscitis (TS) from pyogenic spondylodiscitis (PS) is challenging due to overlapping clinical and radiological features. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management. This study aimed to identify clinical, laboratory, and…

Evaluation of multimodal large language models for pneumothorax assessment in real-world clinical scenarios
Abstract Introduction Pneumothorax is a potentially life-threatening clinical condition requiring rapid diagnosis and intervention. It may present with symptoms such as dyspnoea, cough, chest pain, tachycardia, and tachypnoea. Heavy workload and technical limitations of chest radiographs may…

Efficacy and cost-effectiveness of VATS versus chest tube drainage in first-episode primary spontaneous pneumothorax with blebs: a propensity score-matched retrospective study
Abstract Background Optimal management for first-episode primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) with pulmonary blebs remains uncertain, balancing recurrence prevention against procedural costs. This study compared video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and chest tube drainage in terms of…

Mortality rate and affecting factors in bronchiectasis patients: a 10-year retrospective cohort study from Turkey
Abstract Background Bronchiectasis is a heterogeneous respiratory disease with substantial variation in its clinical course. This study aimed to determine the all-cause mortality rate among hospitalized adults with bronchiectasis—the prespecified primary endpoint—and to evaluate secondary…

Pulmonary hypertension in pediatric patients with cystic fibrosis during acute pulmonary exacerbations: prevalence and associated factors
Abstract Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multi-organ disorder in which respiratory complications account for the majority of its cause of mortality. This study aimed to investigate the factors associated with pulmonary hypertension (PH) in pediatric patients with CF and acute pulmonary…

Replication of COPD susceptibility loci in a large Chinese elderly population using a validated, multi-setting EHR phenotype
Abstract Background Validated frameworks for defining chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) using real-world electronic health records (EHR) data in non-European populations and across multiple healthcare settings and remain limited. This study aimed to develop and validate an EHR-based…

Factors influencing antibiotic prescription for respiratory tract infections among prescribers in Jinja City, Uganda: a qualitative study
Abstract Background Inappropriate antibiotic prescription for respiratory tract infections (RTIs) is a major driver of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). In Uganda, 40–80% of RTI patients receive antibiotics (ABs) despite most of them being viral and self-limiting. Few studies have explored the…

Haemodynamic and clinical impacts of switching phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors to riociguat in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) after balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) – a prospective cohort study
Abstract Background For patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) has been associated with superior reductions in mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) when compared to riociguat. In patients with…

Serum KL-6 combined with immune/inflammatory biomarkers identifies complicated silicosis
Abstract Background Complicated silicosis (CS) poses significant diagnostic challenges, with current diagnosis relying heavily on radiographic imaging. These challenges highlight a need for reliable non-invasive biomarkers to improve early detection and disease staging. This study aimed to evaluate…

Plethysmographic measurements as novel predictors of mortality in pulmonary embolism
Abstract Background Pulmonary embolism(PE) is a ventilation/perfusion(V/Q) disorder due to obstruction of the pulmonary artery, typically by a thrombus. The Pleth Variability Index(PVI) is a noninvasive measure reflecting dynamic changes in the perfusion index(PI), observed through…
