The goal of this observational validation study is to determine the best implementation of fluoroscopic and CT ventilation imaging in patients having non-stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (non-SABR) radiotherapy for stages II-IV lung cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: Assess the dosimetric variation in functional avoidance radiation therapy …
Chronic obstructive lung disease is a disabling disease that affects people usually after several years of smoke tobacco exposure and affects millions of patients worldwide. The disease is marked by multiples episode of worsening, termed exacerbations necessitating frequent hospitalizations. During these exacerbations, patients present breathless, and in the most severe …
COPD and OHS are respiratory conditions that disrupt normal breathing. Positive airway pressure, specifically Non-Invasive Ventilation (NIV), has been shown to improve breathing and reduce symptoms in patients with these conditions. Regular use of NIV can lead to better symptom management, improved quality of life, and reduced use of healthcare …
Every country in the world is experiencing growth in both the size and the proportion of older persons. As a result of the changes, the profile and needs of people with medical illnesses have evolved. How care is delivered to patients has to keep pace with these changes, or patients …
Patients who are diagnosed with COPD by a pulmonology specialist and referred to pulmonary rehabilitation will be included in the study. Cases that meet the inclusion criteria will be randomized and divided into two groups, standard exercise program group (SGr) and chair-based exercise. program group will be called (ChGr). While …
COPD is an important respiratory system disease that progresses with damage to the airways.Increased mucus secretion and thickening in the airways causes obstruction.This obstruction causes symptoms such as shortness of breath, cough, phlegm and wheezing.The most obvious problem that the emerging symptoms will cause for the patient is fatigue.Coping with …
Primary Objective: To evaluate the association between inflammatory, immunological, genetic, and epigenetic biomarkers measured at enrollment and the clinical, functional, and phenotypic characteristics of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and lung cancer. Secondary Objective: To assess the prognostic value of the identified biomarkers by …
High frequency chest wall oscillation (HFCWO) is currently one of the most common and widespread mechanical airway clearance techniques (ACTs) in clinical practice in China. As an external airway oscillation technique, it has been proven in previous clinical practices that it can help clear secretions by vibrating the chest wall, …
A complex interaction between demographic, environmental and genetic mechanisms impact the onset, severity and outcome of ILD-SARDs through dysregulation of the immune system and lung pro-biotic pathways. Comorbidity and genetic risk indicate that there are overlapping pathogenic mechanisms among SARDs, some of which underlie ILD in different SARDs. The purpose …
This prospective, open-label, single-arm, single-center interventional pilot trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of low-dose semaglutide for weight loss and cardiometabolic improvement in obese Pakistani adults without type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study will be conducted at the Asian Institute of Medical Sciences (AIMS), Hyderabad, Sindh, Pakistan. A …
