This study explores the role and potential mechanisms of microRNA-125b-5p (miR-125b-5p) in pulmonary fibrosis (PF). PF is a typical outcome of many chronic lung diseases, with poor prognosis and the lack of ap...
While tobacco industry data suggests that switching from combustible cigarettes to heated tobacco products (HTPs), like IQOS, may reduce the users’ exposure to respiratory toxicants, it is not known if using H...
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory condition. Given patients with COPD continue to experience exacerbations despite the availability of effective therapies, anti-inflammator...
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a complex lung disease with a very poor prognosis. Existing drugs for the treatment of IPF are still insufficient. Therefore, there is still a need to explore new drug ta...
The single-inhaler triple combination of beclometasone dipropionate, formoterol fumarate, and glycopyrronium (BDP/FF/G) is available for maintenance therapy of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Car...
Dual bronchodilator therapy, consisting of a long-acting beta-agonist (LABA) and a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), has proven effective for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)....
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an irreversible and progressive chronic inflammatory lung disease which affects millions of people worldwide. Activated fibroblasts are observed to accumulate in...
Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and transient tachypnoea (TTN) are the two commonest neonatal respiratory disorders. The optimal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) to treat them is unknown. We aim ...
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is associated with high morbidity and hospitalization rate. In infectious diseases, host genetics plays a critical role in susceptibility and immune response, and the immune ...
Comprehensive summaries on real-world outcomes in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)—a rare, incurable condition, are lacking.
Identification of exposures in patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) is essential for diagnosis and management and can be facilitated through the use of exposure questionnaires. However, for most ILD...

The transformation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) from a quiescent phenotype to a hypersecretory and hypercontractile phenotype is a defining feature of asthmatic airway remodeling. Fisetin, a flavonoid...
The first 24 h of infection represent a critical time window in interactions between pathogens and host tissue. However, it is not possible to study such early events in human lung during natural infection due...
Chronic airway disease (CAD) is characterized by chronic airway inflammation and colonization of the lungs by pro-inflammatory pathogens. However, while various other bacterial species are present in the lower...
