Mashup Score: 3Work-related respiratory health conditions among construction workers: a systematic narrative review - 10 month(s) ago
Background Emerging evidence in both developed and developing countries indicate that occupational health hazards and diseases among construction workers constitute a significant public health challenge. While occupational health hazards and conditions in the construction sector are diverse, a burgeoning body of knowledge is emerging about respiratory health hazards and diseases. Yet, there is a…

Mashup Score: 2Phenotypic characteristics of asthma and morbidity are associated with distinct longitudinal changes in L-arginine metabolism - 11 month(s) ago
Background The L-arginine metabolome is dysregulated in asthma, though it is not understood how longitudinal changes in L-arginine metabolism differ among asthma phenotypes and relate to disease outcomes. Objectives To determine the longitudinal associations between phenotypic characteristics with L-arginine metabolites and their relationships with asthma morbidity. Methods This is a…

Mashup Score: 1Undiagnosed and ‘overdiagnosed’ COPD using postbronchodilator spirometry in primary healthcare settings: a systematic review and meta-analysis - 12 month(s) ago
Background Despite chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) being a major global cause of mortality and hospitalisation, it is often undiagnosed or inaccurately diagnosed in clinical settings. Objective To systematically synthesise all peer-reviewed papers from primary healthcare settings that have reported data on: (1) undiagnosed COPD, that is, patients with respiratory symptoms and…

Mashup Score: 2
Background In the absence of evidence-based strategies to improve patient outcomes, the management of patients with severe idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) exacerbations may vary widely across centres. We assessed between-hospital variation in practices and mortality for patients with severe IPF exacerbations. Methods Using the Premier Healthcare Database from 1 October 2015 to 31 December…

Mashup Score: 0
Background Individuals with asthma usually have comorbid sleep disturbances; however, whether sleep quality affects asthma risk is still unclear. We aimed to determine whether poor sleep patterns could increase the risk of asthma and whether healthy sleep patterns could mitigate the adverse effect of genetic susceptibility. Methods A large-scale prospective study was performed in the UK Biobank…

Mashup Score: 0Deep learning using multilayer perception improves the diagnostic acumen of spirometry: a single-centre Canadian study - 1 year(s) ago
Rationale Spirometry and plethysmography are the gold standard pulmonary function tests (PFT) for diagnosis and management of lung disease. Due to the inaccessibility of plethysmography, spirometry is often used alone but this leads to missed or misdiagnoses as spirometry cannot identify restrictive disease without plethysmography. We aimed to develop a deep learning model to improve…

Mashup Score: 0Transitioning from hospital to home with non-invasive ventilation: who benefits? Results of a cohort study - 1 year(s) ago
Background Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is effective in a variety of acute respiratory illnesses in hospitalised patients. Home NIV is effective for stable patients with hypercapnia due to neuromuscular or chronic pulmonary disease. However, there are little data to guide which patients may benefit from NIV immediately following hospitalisation with hypercapnia. Objective To evaluate outcomes…
