Structural Lung Disease and Clinical Phenotype in Bronchiectasis Patients: The EMBARC CT Study
CONCLUSION: Patients with bronchiectasis have highly heterogeneous type and extent of structural lung abnormalities. Strong relationships between radiological disease and clinical features suggest CT analysis may be a useful tool for clinical phenotyping.PMID:38635862 | DOI:10.1164/rccm.202311-2109OC (Source: Am J Respir Crit Car...)

An assessment of the association between patient characteristics and timely lung cancer treatment
ConclusionsWithin a Medicare Advantage population, patient demographics were found to be significantly associated with the decision to pursue surgery, but factors other than stage were not significantly associated with time to non-systemic treatment. (Source: Cancer Causes and Control)

Uptake and 4-week quit rates from an opt-out co-located smoking cessation service delivered alongside community-based low-dose computed tomography screening within the Yorkshire Lung Screening Trial
Extract Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening for lung cancer has been shown to reduce lung cancer-specific mortality in two large, randomised trials [1, 2], and implementation of screening is currently underway in many high- and middle-income countries [3]. Of those people responding to an invitation for lung cancer screening and subsequently eligible, between 30% and 50% are currently smoking [4, 5]. Evidence of the impact of screening alone on smoking cessation rates in randomised trials is mixed. Three studies have compared quit rates in participants randomised to LDCT screening versus a non-screened control gr...

Influenza vaccination coverage and determinants of vaccination in peripheral arterial disease patients
Conclusions: This study highlights the low adherence to influenza vaccination in the PAD population of 2 university hospital centers. Vaccination is often related to age, and there is a need for adapted information regarding influenza consequences on cardiovascular disease overall, particularly on PAD. Addressing common information and advice about vaccination will be a challenge.PMID:38629325 | DOI:10.1024/0301-1526/a001120 (Source: VASA. Zeitschrift fur Gefasskrankheiten.

Sex differences and determinants of anxiety symptoms in patients with COPD initiating pulmonary rehabilitation
CONCLUSION: Over a third of COPD patients had clinically relevant anxiety symptoms with a higher prevalence in women than men. Anxiety was associated with younger age, female gender, and impaired QoL. Early recognition and treatment of anxiety in patients with COPD is worthy of consideration for those attending PR, especially women.PMID:38631527 | DOI:10.1016/j.rmed.2024.107633 (Source: Respiratory Care)

Lung Tissue Multi-Layer Network Analysis Uncovers the Molecular Heterogeneity of COPD
CONCLUSIONS: A novel multi-layer network analysis is able to identify clinically relevant COPD patient communities. Patients with similarly low FEV1 and emphysema can have molecularly distinct small airways and immune response patterns, indicating that different endotypes can lead to similar clinical presentation.PMID:38626356 | DOI:10.1164/rccm.202303-0500OC (Source: Respiratory Care)
