Published in 2022 at "Pediatric Pulmonology"

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26136

Abstract: Pulmonary exacerbations (PEx), pathogens colonizing the respiratory tract, and patients' age are associated with progressive worsening of lung function among patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). However, the effect of these factors on longitudinal changes of… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Lung"

DOI: 10.1007/s00408-019-00307-3

Abstract: In preschool children with cystic fibrosis (CF), lung clearance index (LCI) is a sensitive test to detect early lung disease. Some children with CF screen positive, inconclusive diagnosis (CFSPID) may in time develop clinical features… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Thorax"

DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2017-210983.76

Abstract: Introduction Children with severe therapy resistant asthma (STRA) have heterogeneous disease with variable response to steroids. Currently, spirometry (forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)) is most widely used to assess treatment response. We hypothesised lung… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Thorax"

DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2020-215504

Abstract: Background Lung clearance index (LCI) is a promising lung function outcome in individuals with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The impact of events clinically important for individuals with PCD, such as pulmonary exacerbations, on LCI is… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Thorax"

DOI: 10.1136/thoraxjnl-2021-218347

Abstract: Background The limits of reproducibility of the lung clearance index (LCI) are higher in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) compared with healthy children, and it is currently unclear what defines a clinically meaningful change. Methods… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal of applied physiology"

DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00511.2021

Abstract: Multiple breath washout (MBW) testing is increasingly used as a physiological measurement in the clinic, due in part to the availability of commercial equipment and reference values for MBW indices. Commercial N2 washout devices are… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "European Respiratory Journal"

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.02686-2020

Abstract: Background Although the lung clearance index (LCI) is a sensitive marker of small airway disease in individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF), less is known about longitudinal changes in LCI during routine clinical surveillance. Here, our… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "European Respiratory Journal"

DOI: 10.1183/13993003.congress-2020.4312

Abstract: Background: While lung clearance index (LCI) is acknowledged to be a sensitive measure to detect small airway disease in cystic fibrosis (CF), less is known about its long-term progression. For clinical interpretation, knowledge of longitudinal… read more here.
