Non-collinear bipulse reconstruction via dispersion scan.

Light pulses in the femtosecond range require sophisticated methods for their precise temporal characterization. Several techniques have been developed over the past decades that deliver the temporal structure of ultrashort light pulses. Still, there are special cases left that cannot be treated directly by established methods.

Remote monitoring and teleconsultations can reduce greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining quality of care in cystic fibrosis.

Background: Remote care usefulness and climate change co-benefits should be addressed simultaneously to incentivize political action.

Objectives: To assess the changes in healthcare consumption, lung function and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during the COVID-19 pandemic in Dutch cystic fibrosis (CF) care.

Design: Retrospective multicentre observational study in five Dutch CF centres.

Potential, Pitfalls, and Future Directions for Remote Monitoring of Chronic Respiratory Diseases: Multicenter Mixed Methods Study in Routine Cystic Fibrosis Care.

Background: The current literature inadequately addresses the extent to which remote monitoring should be integrated into care models for chronic respiratory diseases (CRDs).

Objective: This study examined a remote monitoring program (RMP) in cystic fibrosis (CF) by exploring experiences, future perspectives, and use behavior over 3 years, with the aim of developing future directions for remote monitoring in CRDs.

Methods: This was a mixed methods, multicenter, observational study in 5 Dutch CF centers following a sequential explanatory design.

Dried Blood Spot Method Development and Clinical Validation for the Analysis of Elexacaftor, Elexacaftor-M23, Tezacaftor, Tezacaftor-M1, Ivacaftor, Ivacaftor Carboxylate, and Hydroxymethyl Ivacaftor Using LC-MS/MS.

Background: The highly effective Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) modulator, elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor, is now widely being used by people with cystic fibrosis. However, few independent studies have detailed the pharmacokinetics (PK) of CFTR modulators. Blood collection by venipuncture is the gold standard for PK measurements, but it is invasive.
