DOI: 10.1002/pds.5638
Abstract: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Electronic medical record (EMR) databases can facilitate epidemiology research in various diseases including bronchiectasis. Given the diagnostic challenges of bronchiectasis, the validity of the coding in EMR requires clarification. We aimed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.23901
Abstract: In 2001, 5 of 16 (31%) children with CF and normal spirometry were found to have radiological bronchiectasis and in another group of children, in 2004, bronchiectasis was found in (11 of 37) 30% of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.23984
Abstract: Protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) is a common cause of prolonged cough in young children, and may be a precursor of bronchiectasis. Bacteria are often present in the lower airways in both PBB and bronchiectasis and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25062
Abstract: Bronchiectasis (BE) is defined as a permanent, irreversible dilation of the bronchial tree. In the pediatric population, this disease process is most commonly associated with patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). However, BE unrelated to CF… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25712
Abstract: BACKGROUND The marked heterogeneity in CF disease complicates selection of those most likely to benefit from existing or emergent treatments. OBJECTIVE We aimed to predict progression of bronchiectasis in preschool children with CF. METHODS Using… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00330-019-06606-w
Abstract: Purpose To estimate airway tapering in control subjects and to assess the usability of tapering as a bronchiectasis biomarker in paediatric populations. Methods Airway tapering values were semi-automatically quantified in 156 children with control CTs… read more here.

Pathophysiology and Genetics of Bronchiectasis Unrelated to Cystic Fibrosis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Lung"
DOI: 10.1007/s00408-018-0121-y
Abstract: Bronchiectasis is characterized by deregulated inflammatory response and recurrent bacterial infection resulting in progressive lung damage and an irreversible dilatation of bronchi and bronchioles. Generally accepted model of the development of bronchiectasis is the “vicious… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00408-020-00371-0
Abstract: Non-tuberculous mycobacteria pulmonary disease (NTM-pd) commonly complicates bronchiectasis. However, clinical and radiological features of NTM-pd and bronchiectasis are very similar. We aimed to develop a radiologic prediction tool for bronchiectasis to identify NTM-pd. We reviewed… read more here.
