New CT technology allows for a comprehensive, simultaneous evaluation of lung structure and function, something not possible with standard CT, according to a study published in Radiology, a journal of ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv preprint server, researchers develop the ‘crystal ribcage,’ a transparent ribcage for real-time lung imaging at cellular resolution. Study: Crystal Ribcage: A ...

Brensocatib, newly approved by the FDA for noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB), was also associated with improvements in lung structure, on the basis of data from a substudy of 100 individuals ...

This study, published in the journal Nature Communications, determined the mechanism of this live biotherapeutic product — a powder mixture of living Lactobacilli bacteria — to reduce neutrophilic ...

Biological therapy was associated with significant changes in lung structure and, by extension, improved lung function in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and T2 ...

A study has shown how lung capacity evolves from childhood to old age. Until now, it was thought that lung function increased until it peaked at around 20-25 years of age, after which it stabilized.

Toby Maher, MD, PhD, professor of clinical medicine, Keck Medicine of USC, discusses the impact of changes in lung function in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). How does the rate of ...

Higher body mass index and increased physical activity can assist in overcoming lung function deficits in early childhood, with important implications for long-term respiratory health "The key finding ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . Deployment-related distal lung disease was frequently reported among veterans. Lung function following ...

Air pollution cannot be eliminated by individual effort alone, but exposure can be reduced and lung injury can be slowed. Protecting lung health today depends on consistent, realistic choices rather ...
