Introduction: Type 1 congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) is characterized by large, dilated cysts that rapidly expand due to aeration immediately after birth, often necessitating surgical resection. In atypical cases of CPAM type 1, fetal T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reveals a low-intensity solid lung mass containing multiple irregular T2 high-intensity areas.
Methods: Data were retrospectively collected for infants with atypical CPAM type 1 born at our hospital between March 2002 and December 2022.

Background: T2-high asthma is characterized by elevated blood eosinophils (b-eos), and/or fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), and/or being "allergy-driven", which is not well-defined.
Objective: To investigate the role of total and specific immunoglobulin E (tIgE/sIgE) for defining and predicting T2-high asthma in childhood as biomarkers of "allergy-driven".
Methods: We utilized data from the COPSAC2000 (n = 411) and COPSAC2010 (n = 700) mother-child cohorts with repeated measurements of tIgE, sIgE, b-eos and FeNO through childhood.

Purpose Of The Review: Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is increasingly recognized for its pivotal role in the pathogenesis of various epithelial-driven chronic inflammatory diseases. This review navigates the existing evidence on TSLP, with a particular focus on asthma, before delving into the current understanding of its role in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). We explore the role of TSLP in the pathogenesis of asthma and CRSwNP, two conditions often interconnected and collectively referred to as"Global Airway Disease".
