Background: A thorough diagnostic process is essential with regard to prognosis and treatment of the more than 200 different types of interstitial lung diseases (ILD). Key to this complex process is a comprehensive medical history. For this, a template is recommended and questionnaires are increasingly used. Yet, the optimal questionnaire has not b...

Nasal high-flow therapy (NHFT) is an upcoming treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. It supplies heated, humidified, and, desirably, oxygen-enriched air through a nasal cannula at flow rates up to 60 L/min. Several studies examined the effect of NHFT in COPD patients, but a clear overview is lacking. The present review...

Medical imaging plays a key role in evaluating and monitoring lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer. The application of artificial intelligence in medical imaging has transformed medical images into mineable data, by extracting and correlating quantitative imaging features with patients’ outcomes and tum...

Background: Changes in cerebrospinal fluid, neuroimaging, and cognitive functions have been used as diagnostic biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). This study aimed to investigate the temporal trajectories of plasma biomarkers in subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and patients with AD relative to healthy controls (HCs). Methods: In th...
