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.
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.
Clinical Manifestations Associated With Airway Remodeling in Asthma

World Lung Day 2024
September 25th marks this year’s observance and celebration of World Lung Day!
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
