Fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis being the most common form, primarily affect older individuals and have a poor prognosis, with a median survival of 3 to 5 years. While antifibrotic treatments such as nintedanib and pirfenidone can slow disease progression, their efficacy is often limited by …
This study capitalizes on the emerging technology of 19F MRI, using conventional 'thermally' polarized perfluorinated gas (perfluoropropane, or PFP) mixed with oxygen and studied with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize ventilation. This technique has not been studied in children. Children and adolescents (6-17 years old) with cystic fibrosis (CF) …
The purpose of this study is to further characterize early CF lung disease in newborns, infants and toddlers with cystic fibrosis (CF).
In this project the investigators aim to identify new biological markers by characterizing the response/inflammation associated with the development and progression of M. abscessus lung disease in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis with the aim of increasing current knowledge available on the development and progression of lung disease.
The incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease (NTM-LD) is increasing worldwide and in Eastern Asia. NTM-LD leads significant morbidity and mortality, around 25% within 5 years, but the treatment rate is low because the course of NTM-LD is indolent, especially in nodular-bronchiectatic (NB) form. However, there is no biomarker proven …
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is a particular type of irreversible disease that may damage or obstruct airways and make it difficult to breath. This respiratiry condition may lead to shallow breathing. Breathing exercisers help to manage hyperventilation often seen in COPD patients. To handle respiratory complications patients are advised to …
The study is a Phase II, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel, placebo-controlled clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety of 9MW1911 in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), characterized by non-reversible airflow obstruction, contributes to high mortality and morbidity rates worldwide, including Norway. Individuals with COPD experience symptoms and complications that impede daily activities and diminish their quality of life. COPD places a growing burden on healthcare systems presently and in the future. …
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is progressive and irreversible respiratory condition characterized by persistent airflow limitation leading to dyspnea and reduced functional capacity. Pulmonary rehabilitation along with different technqiues of breathing exercises reduces dyspnea and enhance functional capacity by improving ventilatory efficiency, respiratory muscle control and overall exercise tolerance in patients …
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive lung disease characterized by persistent airflow obstruction and chronic respiratory symptoms or alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency in response to inhaled cigarette smoke or other irritants. The excessive morbidity and mortality associated with COPD acute exacerbations represent a significant public health problem that places a …
