The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether home-based inspiratory muscle training can reduce hospital readmissions and death in patients recovering from a severe acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD). The main questions this study aims to answer are: Does adding home-based inspiratory muscle training to …
The study includes adult patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) with interstitial lung disease (ILD) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nintedanib plus tocilizumab combination therapy compared to standard therapy (methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil) for 56 weeks.
While the bidirectional relationship between the lung and the right heart are well studied, the cardiopulmonary interactions between the lung and the left heart are largely unresearched and not well understood. However, in recent years, there is a growing evidence that partially explains the bidirectional interaction between COPD and left …
Lung involvement is one of the most frequent extra articular involvements of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA related lung involvement can affect parenchyma, airway, vascular tree and serosa. Among all possible manifestations of lung disease, interstitial lung disease is the most severe being able to compromise quality of life and survival …
This prospective, multicenter study focuses on patients with fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILD) admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) for acute respiratory failure (ARF). ILD encompasses a group of heterogeneous disorders characterized by progressive fibrotic and inflammatory damage to the lung interstitium, often resulting in chronic respiratory failure. Acute respiratory …
This is a prospective exploratory biodistribution study in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The purpose of this research study is to determine where and to which degree the FAPI tracer (68Ga-FAPI-46) accumulates in normal and fibrotic lung tissues of patients with interstitial lung disease. The study will include patients …
Aim of this study is to evaluate image quality and reproducibility of Xenon-129 and Inert fluorinated (19F) gas Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and to evaluate changes in lung structure and function in participants with cystic fibrosis (CF) and asthma compared to healthy controls.
Particulate matter (PM) associated cardiorespiratory and vascular dysfunction (CaRVD) poses a significant global health burden. The World Trade Center (WTC) destruction on September 11, 2001 led to an intense deposition of particulate matter (WTC-PM) into aerodigestive system. WTC associated morbidities include respiratory, gastrointestinal, chronic rhinosinusitis, cancer, mental health concerns and …
Background Some health conditions make breathing difficult and uncomfortable. When this happens every day, it is called chronic breathlessness. Over 3 million people living with heart and lung disease have chronic breathlessness in the UK. Breathlessness is very difficult for patients themselves and their families, resulting in disability and feelings …
The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between the microbial community, host immunity and the presence or absence of concurrent rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease patients with anti-MDA5 antibody positive dermatomyositis.
