DOI: 10.1080/02770903.2024.2355231
Abstract: Abstract Background Small airway dysfunction (SAD) is increasingly recognized as an important feature of pediatric asthma yet typically relies on spirometry-derived FEF25–75 to detect its presence. Multiple breath washout (MBW) and oscillometry potentially offer improved… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/09603123.2022.2063263
Abstract: We aim to assess small airway dysfunction, spirometry, health-related quality of life (HR-QoL), and inflammatory biomarkers between the wildland firefighters and healthy controls. Lung function including impulse oscillometry (IOS) and spirometry, HR-QoL measured by the… read more here.

Peripheral airway dysfunction and relationship with symptoms in smokers with preserved spirometry

DOI: 10.1111/resp.13215
Abstract: Smokers develop respiratory symptoms and peripheral airway dysfunction even when spirometry is preserved. Multiple breath nitrogen washout (MBNW) and impulse oscillometry system (IOS) are potentially useful measures of peripheral airway function but they have not… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2017-210983.59
Abstract: Introduction CHP, the major differential diagnosis for IPF, has varied radiological features that can confound CT agreement in up to a third of cases of fibrotic interstitial lung disease presenting to multidisciplinary panels. Given that… read more here.

Airflow obstruction and small airway dysfunction following pulmonary tuberculosis: a cross-sectional survey
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Thorax"
DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2021-218345
Abstract: Objectives Pulmonary function impairment and chronic respiratory symptoms after tuberculosis are relatively common in low-income and middle-income countries. We aimed to estimate the impact of post-tuberculosis (post-TB) on pulmonary function. Methods This large cross-sectional, population-based… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.00839-2020
Abstract: Oxidised phosphatidylcholines (OxPCs) are produced under conditions of elevated oxidative stress and can contribute to human disease pathobiology. However, their role in allergic asthma is unexplored. The aim of this study was to characterise the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.congress-2018.pa5211
Abstract: Background: ILDs are known to cause structural alterations in peripheral airways. Conventional tests like spirometry and HRCT chest are not very sensitive to diagnose small airway dysfunction(SAD) in ILD. IOS can be used as non-invasive,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12890-024-02907-z
Abstract: Background Asthma is a common respiratory disease. In asthma, the small airways have more intensive inflammation and prominent airway remodelling, compared to the central airways. We aimed to investigate the predictive value of risk factors… read more here.
