Abstract: Inhaled bronchodilators are often given in preterm infants with evolving or established bronchopulmonary dysplasia. However, it is unclear which patients may benefit from it and when it is the best time to start treatment. The… read more here.

Abstract: OBJECTIVE Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an interstitial lung disease caused by the inhalation of specific organic antigens or low-molecular weight substances in genetically susceptible individuals. Although small airway involvement is prominent in patients with chronic… read more here.

Abstract: Objective. The assessment of lung mechanics in horses is nowadays based on invasive methods that may require sedation. The forced oscillation technique (FOT) allows the non-invasive assessment of respiratory mechanics during spontaneous breathing, but current… read more here.

Abstract: Selecting ‘healthy’ preschool‐aged children for reference ranges may not be straightforward. Relaxing inclusion criteria for normative data does not affect spirometry z‐scores. We therefore investigated the effect of similarly relaxing inclusion criteria in preschoolers on… read more here.

Abstract: Derecruitment of air spaces in the lung occurs when airways close during exhalation and is related to ventilation heterogeneity and symptoms in asthma. The forced oscillation technique has been used to identify surrogate measures of… read more here.

Abstract: The forced oscillation technique (FOT) requires minimal patient cooperation and is useful for children. However, comprehensive values of respiratory impedance at baseline and after the reversibility test have not been definitively confirmed. The aim of… read more here.

Abstract: Background: The loss of enzymatic activity in lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) results in progressive cellular accumulation of macromolecules. In these patients, respiratory dysfunction is usually a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Thus, clinical assessments… read more here.

Abstract: Exercise induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is assessed in the laboratory with an exercise challenge (EC). A ≥10% decline in FEV1 post EC is considered positive. The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is suggested to produce equivalent and… read more here.

Abstract: The Global Initiative for Asthma report emphasises the use of spirometry in diagnosing and monitoring asthma in children from 6 years of age onwards [1]. Spirometry requires good cooperation and younger children are sometimes unable to… read more here.

Abstract: Anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) therapy is widely used to treat various inflammatory conditions. Paradoxically, there are several case reports describing the development of bronchocentric granulomatosis treated with TNFα inhibitors, and it is difficult to… read more here.

Abstract: The measurement of lung function in preschool children for the diagnosis of asthma is not routinely used. The need to perform forced expiratory manoeuvres requires active cooperation and thus limits the use of spirometry in… read more here.
