Spirometric pattern and cardiovascular risk: a prospective study of 0.3 million Chinese never-smokers.
Lancet Reg Health West Pac
January 2025
Department of Epidemiology & Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Peking University, Beijing 100191, China.
Background: Existing studies have not provided robust evidence about the CVD risk of non-smoking patients with restrictive spirometric pattern (RSP) or airflow obstruction (AFO), and how the risk is modified by body shape. We aimed to bridge the gap.
Methods: We used never-smokers' data from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) and performed Cox models by sex (278,953 females and 50,845 males).
Prevalence and characteristics of adults with preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm): Data from the BOLD Australia study.
Chron Respir Dis
January 2025
The Woolcock Institute of Medical Research, The University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia.
Individuals with Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm), defined as FEV/FVC ≥0.7 and FEV1 <80% predicted, are at higher risk of developing COPD. However, data for Australian adults are limited.

Thorax
January 2025
Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Suzhou Medical College of Soochow University, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China
Background: Although morbidity and mortality are reportedly increased in individuals with preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm), little is known about how to optimise PRISm-related health.
Aims: Is Life's Essential 8 (LE8) associated with mortality and cardiovascular morbidity in individuals with PRISm and with PRISm transition trajectories?
Methods: Participants with PRISm (n=31 943) with complete data on LE8 and 23 179 individuals with two spirometry measurements were included from the UK Biobank. Eight health components were used to create the LE8 score (0-100).
COVID-19 pulmonary phenotypes and longitudinal patterns in the first wave of the pandemic.

January 2025
Pulmonary Unit, Cardiothoracic and Vascular Department, Pisa University Hospital, Pisa, Italy; Department of Surgical, Medical, and Molecular Pathology and Critical Care Medicine, University of Pisa, Pisa, Italy.
Background: The long-term evolution of COVID-19 in patients hospitalized during the pandemic's first wave remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to identify COVID-19 pulmonary phenotypes and their longitudinal patterns over a 12-month follow-up.
Methods: COVID-19 patients discharged from Pisa University Hospital (Italy) between March-September 2020, were evaluated at T3, T12, and T24 months post-discharge.
Lung clearance index: A sensitive measure of airway function improvement in adolescents after weight loss from bariatric surgery.
Respir Med
January 2025
Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel; Clalit Health Services, Dan Petah Tikva District, Petah Tikva, Israel. Electronic address:
Background: Morbid obesity in adolescents impacts respiratory function, often leading to reduced lung volume and obstructive ventilatory defects. However, standard spirometric values frequently remain within normal ranges.
Objectives: We hypothesized that Lung Clearance Index (LCI) is a more sensitive marker for detecting airway dysfunction in adolescents with morbid obesity than conventional lung function tests.
