Bronchoscopic endobronchial valves

Bronchoscopic endobronchial valves (EBVs) have emerged as a minimally invasive alternative to surgical lung volume reduction for patients with severe emphysema. Emphysema, a progressive lung disease associated with COPD, leads to hyperinflation of the affected lung and reduces respiratory efficiency. EBVs function by limiting airflow to diseased lung segments, causing atelectasis of the emphysematous lung, and allowing healthier lung regions to expand, thereby improving overall pulmonary function....

A European multicentre, randomised controlled trial of pirfenidone in bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome after bilateral lung transplantation

Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is a major obstacle to improving outcomes after lung transplantation. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), characterised by progressive decline in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) due to fibrotic scarring of the small airways, accounts for most CLAD cases. Pirfenidone, an antifibrotic agent used for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, was assessed for treating progressive BOS....
