Race-neutral equations for assessing lung function appeared to catch more true-abnormal findings for Black patients than did previously standard race-adjusted spirometry equations, a study showed.

Home spirometry shows potential for early detection of pulmonary function decline in patients with systemic sclerosis–associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). It shows good cross-sectional ...

Recent studies show that many patients are being treated for COPD without confirmatory spirometry. In-office testing is easy and available. A recent study showed that only 32% of patients admitted to ...

Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) was associated with the development of airway obstruction over 10 years of follow-up, independent of smoking habits, with comparable odds for disease ...

Upon implementing race-neutral equations, there was a decrease in z scores among Black children for forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1; mean difference −0.814, 95% CI −0.823 to −0.806, P<0.001 ...

An abnormal spirometry phenotype has been found by age 8 in more than 25% of children born extremely preterm or extremely low birth weight.

COPD requires regular monitoring through tests like spirometry to assess the condition’s severity and aid in an individualized treatment plan. COPD is a progressive lung condition that makes breathing ...

Individuals exposed to paternal passive smoke pre-puberty have risk for pre-COPD impaired lung function trajectories during the first 6 decades of life.

A wearable device combined with machine learning may offer a solution for continuous cough monitoring in pulmonary fibrosis patients. A wearable cough monitor generated clinically useful cough data, ...
