More research must be done to investigate the role of air pollution on the epigenome in patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), in order to develop strategies that minimize the effects of these pollutants, according to a new article published online in the American Thoracic Society’s American Journal of Respiratory […]
Sweden’s controversial decision not to lock down during COVID-19 produced more deaths and greater healthcare demand than seen in countries with earlier, more stringent interventions, a new analysis finds. But Sweden fared better than would be expected from its public-health mandates alone, roughly similar to France, Italy and Spain – countries that […]
A study published online as an accepted paper in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine found that increased physical activity is associated with a lower risk of obstructive sleep apnea, a common sleep-related breathing disorder. The study is the largest to date focused on the relationship between sleep apnea and […]
In a new paper published online in the Annals of the American Thoracic Society, researchers have been unable to produce two theorized subphenotypes of COVID-19 related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Scientists previously proposed that two phenotypes exist that differentiate patients with more severe COVID-19 and indicate that they should be treated […]
Today, the American Thoracic Society announced a $100,000 donation from Gilead Sciences, Inc. to support the ATS COVID-19 Crisis Fund. This donation from Gilead is the latest in a highly appreciated increase in funding support from industry. The ATS COVID-19 Crisis Fund aims to develop and disseminate research, education and scientific recommendations […]
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation announced data from a collaborative, international effort to understand the impact of COVID-19 on people with cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease that impacts the lungs and other organs. The manuscript, published in the Journal of Cystic Fibrosis, reports on 40 people with CF across eight countries […]
Facial features analyzed from 3D photographs could predict the likelihood of having obstructive sleep apnea, according to a study published in the 四月 issue of the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine. Using 3D photography, the study found that geodesic measurements — the shortest distance between two points on a curved surface — predicted […]
Study conducted at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City designed to demonstrate benefit of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in delaying or eliminating hospitalization and/or ventilation in patients with COVID-19 Study will also evaluate obstructive sleep apnea as a risk factor for hospitalization and ventilation in patients with COVID-19 […]
A UK study of patients participating in low-dose CT lung cancer screening highlights the importance of spirometry in the assessment of possible chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and demonstrates that over-reliance on radiological changes alone may result in detection of clinically insignificant disease. The new study is published online in the Annals of […]
At the direction of the Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear Defense (JPEO-CBRND), the Medical CBRN Defense Consortium (MCDC) has released a Request for Information (RFI) seeking solutions to combat the novel Coronavirus (2019-NCoV) pandemic with a focus on the following areas: 1) Diagnostics/Monitoring, 2) Surveillance, […]
