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.
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.
World Lung Day 2024
September 25th marks this year’s observance and celebration of World Lung Day!
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.
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
What Differentiates COPD Exacerbations From Asthma Exacerbations?
Join global expert Dr. Eric Bateman as he discusses how exacerbations in patients with COPD are different than exacerbations in patients with asthma.
ADVENT On Air | Breath, Blood, and Beyond: The Prognostic Power of Biomarkers in Asthma Across Ages
Join pediatric respirologist Dr. Sharon Dell and adult respirologist Dr. Simon Couillard as they discuss the prognostic and diagnostic power of asthma biomarkers and their impact on optimizing patient management across all ages.
