Dr. Joshua K. Sabari explains how surgery, radiation and therapy may reduce lung capacity and shares steps survivors can take to protect their breathing health. In a recent video interview, Dr. Joshua ...

Pulmonary function tests (PFTs), also called lung function tests, are some of the most important, but least understood, tools healthcare providers use to evaluate lung health. Though many people have ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human ‘lung-on-chip’ model using stem cells taken from only one person. These chips simulate breathing motions and lung ...

Pulmonary fibrosis—also known in technical terms as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF)—is a rare but life-threatening disease. It causes scarring of the connective tissue between the functional ...

Results of the cross-sectional study showed that impaired lung function was associated with an increased risk for spondyloarthritis. Impaired lung function — particularly preserved ratio impaired ...

Treatment with Endeavor Biomedicines’ experimental oral therapy taladegib (ENV-101) improved lung function in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in a Phase 2a clinical trial, newly ...

This fact sheet explains when medications might be used to treat NSCLC, and describes some of the most commonly used medications. Most cancers are caused by genetic mutations that cause certain cells ...

Researchers uncovered how lung cells decide whether to rebuild tissue or fight infection. This built-in “switch” may be the key to restoring the lungs’ natural repair ability. The discovery could lead ...
