DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00290-2019
Abstract: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is progressive condition with unclear aetiology and patients decline with heterogeneous trajectories. Whilst antifibrotic therapy can slow disease progression [1, 2], the ability to determine an individual's disease course is limited… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12931-020-1330-5
Abstract: Background The mechanism for symptomatic improvement after bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is unclear, since spirometry reveals little or no change. In this study, the effects of BT on airway resistance were examined using two independent techniques.… read more here.
