Objective: To identify risk factors for clinically-important drowning-associated lung injury (ciDALI) in children.
Study Design: This was a cross-sectional study of children (0 through18 years) who presented to 32 pediatric emergency departments (EDs) from 2010 through 2017. We reviewed demographics, comorbidities, prehospital data, chest radiographs reports, and ED course from emergency medical services, medical, and fatality records.

Background: Lung auscultation using a smartphone built-in microphone is promising for home monitoring of pediatric respiratory diseases. Our aim was to compare respiratory sounds recorded by a smartphone and a digital stethoscope by assessing the proportion of quality recordings and adventitious sounds detected by each device.
Methods: A comparative early feasibility study with children from a public school in Northern Portugal was conducted.

Objectives: To longitudinally assesses pulmonary involvement in newly diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients over a 12-months follow-up. To identify biomarkers and establish a diagnostic algorithm for monitoring pulmonary changes.
Methods: Newly diagnosed RA and PsA patients were examined with clinical and laboratory assessments, pulmonary function tests (PFT), and chest radiography (CXR) at three-months intervals for one year.
