The clinical utility of spirometric screening of asymptomatic smokers for early signs of air flow limitation has recently come under review. The current authors propose that reduced forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV(1)) is more than a measu

Guidelines for long term oxygen therapy (LTOT) recommend increasing oxygen flow by 1 l/min overnight. A study was undertaken in patients with COPD on LTOT to determine the prevalence of overnight desaturation if the usual oxygen flow rate is not incr

We present a case of pulmonary nocardiosis in an immunocompetent patient whose disease relapsed despite prolonged therapy with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. Cure was achieved with 12 months' combination treatment with moxifloxacin and minocycline.

Resting pulmonary function and exercise variables are widely used to stage and monitor idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP). However, the variability of exercise data (maximal exercise and the 6-minute walk test) has not been evaluated definitivel

Study objectives: Home overnight pulse oximetry (OPO) is used to assess nocturnal desaturation in patients with COPD, but the current practice of relying on one recording has not been studied. We assessed the variability of nocturnal desaturation in

A case of allergic bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA) complicating lung transplantation for cystic fibrosis is described. Control of ABPA was only achieved with 20 mg of prednisone and 600 mg of itraconazole per day. However, a prompt clinical and

Objective Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) occurs in cases of atopic asthma and may result in important lung disease. Early diagnosis is essential as this disease is responsive to steroids. However, while asthma is common, ABPA is infre

Summary Background Azithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties. We tested the hypothesis that azithromycin would decrease the frequency of exacerbations, increase lung function, and improve health-rel

Background and objective: In COPD, hospital admissions and readmissions account for the majority of health-care costs. The aim of this prospective randomized controlled study was to determine if early pulmonary rehabilitation, commenced as an inpatie
