Abstract: Interventions to prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2 have been associated with substantial reductions in exacerbations of airways diseases, likely through reduced transmission of other respiratory viruses. We surveyed 4442 people with airways disease (asthma=3627, bronchiectasis=258,… read more here.

Abstract: BackgroundSpecific resistance loops appear in different shapes influenced by different resistive properties of the airways, yet their descriptive ability is compressed to a single parameter - its slope. We aimed to develop new parameters reflecting… read more here.

Abstract: Airways diseases account for most of the burden of respiratory diseases. In Australia, the burden of chronic respiratory diseases is the 3rd highest behind mental and musculoskeletal diseases. Despite the contrasting pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying asthma,… read more here.
