Identification of progressive pulmonary fibrosis: consensus findings from a modified Delphi study.
Respir Res
December 2024
National Jewish Health, Denver, USA.
Background: We sought consensus among practising respiratory physicians on the prediction, identification and monitoring of progression in patients with fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) using a modified Delphi process.
Methods: Following a literature review, statements on the prediction, identification and monitoring of progression of ILD were developed by a panel of physicians with specialist expertise. Practising respiratory physicians were sent a survey asking them to indicate their level of agreement with these statements on a binary scale or 7-point Likert scale (- 3 to 3), or to select answers from a list.

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemia, the imaging test of choice to diagnose COVID-19 pneumonia as chest computed tomography (CT). However, access was limited in the hospital setting and patients treated in Primary Care (PC) could only access the chest x-ray as an imaging test. Several scientific articles that demonstrated the sensitivity of lung ultrasound, being superior to chest x-ray [Cleverley J et al.

Wastewater surveillance for pathogens is important to monitor disease trends within communities and maintain public health; thus, a quick and reliable protocol is needed to quantify pathogens present in wastewater. In this study, a method using a commercially available magnetic carbon bead-based kit, i.e.

The extent to which semi-quantitative antibody levels confer protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection in populations with heterogenous immune histories is unclear. Two nested case-control studies were designed within the multisite HEROES/RECOVER prospective cohort of frontline workers to study the relationship between antibody levels and protection against first-time post-vaccination infection and reinfection with SARS-CoV-2 from December 2021 to January 2023. All participants submitted weekly nasal swabs for rRT-PCR testing and blood samples quarterly and following infection or vaccination.

Different additives have been used to improve the duration and quality of analgesia of the local anaesthetic used in the single-dose caudal block technique, such as opioids, epinephrine, clonidine, neostigmine, etc. Dexmedetomidine is a potent and a highly selective α2-adrenergic agonist having a sympatholytic, sedative, and analgesic effect and has been described as a safe and effective additive in many anaesthetic and analgesic techniques. Another agent is Fentanyl, a lipophilic opioid, is added frequently to local anaesthetics which least likely to cause respiratory depression when given extradurally, because of its high lipid solubility.
