Pulmonology

Lungcast reflects on this year in pulmonology, looking back at such topics ranging from the American Lung Association ‘State of the Air’ report to artificial intelligence in lung imaging.

From groundbreaking therapies to ethical dilemmas, HCPLive’s top podcasts of 2024 delivered expert insights and human stories across medicine.

In this month's episode of Lungcast, Jacob Sands, MD, discusses the American Lung Association’s recently newly-released 2024 State of Lung Cancer report.

This portion of the latest Lungcast episode includes a discussion of therapies, triggers, and management of AERD.

During his interview, Criner discusses several notable updates to the 2025 Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) Report regarding COPD care.

In this segment of the latest Lungcast episode, the characteristics of AERD and the concerns of patients were highlighted.

This segment of Han’s interview featured a discussion of the safety profile of dupilumab and ensifentrine, as well as other details in the GOLD 2025 Report.

In this interview, Han highlighted new information included in the GOLD 2025 Report regarding utilization of dupilumab and ensifentrine for certain patients with COPD.

In these updates and new sections, the 2025 GOLD report included highlighted climate change, cardiovascular risk, and pulmonary hypertension.

A trio of stakeholders join Lungcast to discuss the ongoing, long-term assessment into the patterns and drivers of chronic lung disease in a real-world cohort.

In the most recent Lungcast, Rachel Eddy, PhD, joined host Al Rizzo, MD, to speak to listeners about the current and future uses of AI in lung imaging.

Patients who underwent FESS required less medication and had fewer allergy and pulmonology visits than patients who did not have surgery.

Proof-of-mechanism data from the phase 1b/2a study of WVE-006 represent the first-ever clinical demonstration of RNA editing in humans.

The literature review suggests allergen immunotherapy can effectively treat allergic asthma and prevent its development in patients with allergic rhinitis.

Antonio Anzueto, MD, discusses how dupilumab fits into treatment algorithms for patients with uncontrolled COPD.

Stephanie Christenson, MD, discusses the impact of recent regulatory approvals and pipeline movement for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

New research presented at CHEST 2024 highlights ensifentrine’s effectiveness in improving lung function, symptoms, and quality of life for COPD patients, regardless of disease severity.

This Month in Review article featured a variety of notable updates in the field of pulmonology covered in September 2024.

The latest episode of Lungcast explores the evolving field of pulmonary imaging technology and the transformative impact of artificial intelligence.

Amanda Wilson, PhD, details how her team is developing risk assessment models to evaluate viral infection intervention in schools.

Georgios Kitsios, MD, PhD, discusses his team's interim results an analysis that is providing insights into the microbiome dynamics of critically ill patients with VAP.

Kerri Aronson, MD, MS, describes her team's research efforts to create educational resources that address the profound lack of patient knowledge around HP.

Here's what to expect from the new pulmonology research quarterly newsletter powered by the American Lung Association Research Institute.

People living with HP generally experience a profound lack of knowledge about their disease, driving poorer health-related quality of life. A study sought to create educational resources to curb this effect.

Wilson details how her team plans to develop risk assessment models to estimate respiratory viral infection risk reductions for interventions in elementary schools.
