Xenon ventilation MRI in difficult asthma: initial experience in a clinical setting
This article demonstrates the feasibility of using 129Xe MRI in clinical practice. Discordance between symptoms, spirometry and MRI can support the use of further treatment or suggest coexisting breathing control issues or laryngeal disorders.
Bronchial thermoplasty guided by hyperpolarised gas magnetic resonance imaging in adults with severe asthma: a 1-year pilot randomised trial
In adults with severe asthma, MRI-guided BT reduces the number of radiofrequency activations and bronchoscopy sessions, and results in asthma quality-of-life and control improvements at 12 months that are non-inferior to standard whole-lung BT
Prediction of COPD by the single-breath nitrogen test and various respiratory symptoms
The N2 slope of the single-breath nitrogen test predicts incident COPD events as well as or better than respiratory symptoms among subjects without and with airway obstruction. Combining N2 slope and symptoms results in effective prediction.
Clinical characteristics of immunoglobulin G4-positive interstitial pneumonia
This study suggests that IgG4+ IP with abundant IgG4+ cells and elevated serum IgG4 levels could be treated differently from IgG4-related respiratory disease due to potential differences in disease behaviour and response to corticosteroid therapy
