Background: SARS-CoV-2 has been associated with a higher proportion of asymptomatic infections and lower mortality in sub-Saharan Africa than high-income countries. However, there is currently a lack of data on cellular immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 in people living in Africa compared with people in high-income regions of the world. We aimed to assess geographical variation in peripheral and mucosal immune responses.

Rationale And Aim: Patients with COPD often present with a significant number of comorbidities, which are thought to be related to a higher mortality risk. Our aim was to investigate the prevalence and impact of comorbidities on survival and quality of life (QoL), specifically in patients with emphysema characterised by severe lung hyperinflation.
Patients And Methods: Data were prospectively collected from patients who visited our hospital for evaluating their eligibility for a bronchoscopic lung volume reduction treatment and were included in the Groningen Severe COPD cohort (NCT04023409).

This meeting report provides an overview of the highlights of the Bronchitis XI international symposium, held in June 2024 in Groningen, The Netherlands. The theme of this year's symposium was "heterogeneity of lung disease in a changing environment," and the symposium contained five different sessions focused on (i) heterogeneity of chronic lung disease, (ii) environmental changes with impact on lung disease, (iii) the aging lung, (iv) bronchitis, and (v) innovative therapy. The highlights from each of these sessions will be discussed separately, providing an overview of latest studies, new data, and enthralling discussions.

An improvement in the reliability and comparability of tissue characterization results is crucial for enabling further progress in cancer detection and the assessment of therapeutic effects. This can only be achieved by integrating quantitative methods into well-established qualitative characterization routines. This case study presents a hybrid metrological approach for tissue characterisation including vibrational Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectroscopy and traceable reference-free X-Ray Fluorescence analysis (XRF).
