- He has contributed to systematic reviews and clinical practice guidelines aimed at improving the diagnosis and management of LAM and evaluating the safety and efficacy of pirfenidone, an antifibrotic therapy for IPF.!
- Recent findings suggest that factors such as heme oxygenase-1 deficiency negatively affect host defenses against infections like MRSA in pleural mesothelial cells, while also validating the clinical effectiveness of the 6-minute walk test in assessing patient outcomes in IPF.
