Exacerbations Lead to Worsening Lung Function
Dr. Mario Castro discusses how COPD exacerbations can predict future exacerbations and lead to progressive lung function loss in COPD patients.
Type 2 Inflammation and Airway Remodeling Drive Lung Function Decline
Explore the impact of type 2 inflammation and airway remodeling on lung function decline in asthma.
Why Is It Important to Assess Lung Function in Pediatric Asthma?
Learn about FEV1pp and the downstream effects of lung function decline in children with severe asthma.
Monitoring Lung Function Is an Important Aspect of Pediatric Asthma Management
Navigate through this interactive infographic to learn more about why lung function is important to monitor in pediatric patients with asthma and the noninvasive procedures that are available for implementation in clinical practice.
The Cycle of Inflammation in Adult Asthma
Explore the role of chronic type 2 inflammation in the cycle of exacerbations and worsening lung function in patients with asthma.
Clinical Manifestations Associated With Airway Remodeling in Asthma
Join Dr. Hanania to understand how to identify patients at risk of fixed airway obstruction in clinical settings.
Mucus Plugging as a Potential Target in Asthma Management
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she explores the mechanisms underlying mucus plugging development as mucociliary clearance. She explains how type 2 cytokines—particularly IL-13—impair this clearance mechanism, leading to mucus plugging, and worsened asthma outcomes.
Impact of Exacerbations in COPD
Dr. Stephanie Christenson discusses the association between COPD exacerbations and the increased risks of morbidity and mortality
FeNO Is a Noninvasive Biomarker That Can Support Diagnosis and Management for Asthma Patients
Learn how FeNO, a noninvasive biomarker for type 2 inflammation, can be used to optimize care for asthma patients.
Type 2 Inflammation Mediates Severe Asthma in Pediatric Patients
Dr. Leonard Bacharier discusses how type 2 inflammation underlies the pathophysiology of pediatric severe asthma and contributes to burden.
Airway Remodeling in Type 2 Asthma is Driven by IL-4 and IL-13
Dr. Reynold Panettieri discusses how IL-4 and IL-13 drive airway remodeling in type 2 asthma.
Unraveling the Link of Type 2 Inflammation and Airway Remodeling in Asthma
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she discussed on how type 2 inflammation may lead to airway remodeling in asthma, exploring the pathophysiologic mechanisms, that ultimately lead to structural changes and irreversible loss of lung function
