    Periodontal status has been associated with infection in lung diseases such as chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD). However, evidence regarding its association with bronchiectasis remains limited, despite the shared clinical and pathophysiological characteristics between the two conditions. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate whether periodontal treatment affects not only the microbiota of saliva but also that of sputum and nasal secretions in individuals with bronchiectasis. This single-center, parallel-group randomized controlled clinical trial included forty-nine individuals with bronchiectasis, who were randomly allocated using a predefined randomization sequence with allocation concealment to a conventional group (n = 26) submitted to mechanical periodontal treatment plus oral hygiene and a control group (n = 23) submitted to oral hygiene alone. Due to the nature of the intervention, participants and operators were not blinded. At the end of the study, all participants received periodontal treatment. The primary outcome was the quantitative assessment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), and Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) in sputum. Secondary outcomes included the quantification of these microorganisms in saliva and nasal secretions, as well as clinical periodontal parameters and quality-of-life assessment. All variables were evaluated at baseline and three months after treatment. Results: Periodontal treatment improved gingival and plaque indices in the conventional group compared with the control group. However, no significant differences were observed in sputum samples for any of the microorganisms analyzed, suggesting no measurable effect on bacterial levels in the lower airways within the study period. At the end of the experimental period, levels of P. aeruginosa and P. gingivalis decreased in nasal secretions, and levels of P. aeruginosa decreased in saliva in the conventional group but not the control group. No significant differences were found in S. aureus levels between groups or overtime. Also, no significant differences in total OHIP-14 scores were observed between groups. In conclusion, periodontal treatment was associated with reductions in P. aeruginosa in nasal secretions and saliva, and P. gingivalis in nasal secretions, in individuals with bronchiectasis and periodontitis. Periodontal treatment improved gingival and plaque indices in the conventional group compared with the control group. However, no significant differences were observed in sputum samples for any of the microorganisms analyzed, suggesting no measurable effect on bacterial levels in the lower airways within the study period. At the end of the experimental period, levels of P. aeruginosa and P. gingivalis decreased in nasal secretions, and levels of P. aeruginosa decreased in saliva in the conventional group but not the control group. No significant differences were found in S. aureus levels between groups or overtime. Also, no significant differences in total OHIP-14 scores were observed between groups.

    Respiratory Medicine, 2026
    INTRODUCTION: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease that alters ionic transport in the body's secretions, including those of the lung mucosa, and is the most common hereditary respiratory disease in the Western world. One of the causes of morbidity and decreased quality of life in patients with CF is osteoporosis, which is currently assessed by bone densitometry. METHODS: bi-centric, cross-sectional, retrospective study, reviewing data contained in the medical records of patients with cystic fibrosis participants who were treated at 2 CF reference centers, and reanalysis of chest tomography scans performed annually during checkup, in comparison with their bone densitometry measurements from the same period. RESULTS: A total of 73 CF patients were evaluated. Patients with DXA-defined osteoporosis showed significantly lower HU values. Using 215HU as the cutoff, we obtained 83% sensitivity and 68% specificity for osteoporosis. Area under the ROC curve was 0.86 using analyses of T10 to T12 vertebrae. CONCLUSIONS: Chest computed tomography may serve as an opportunistic screening for identifying patients with cystic fibrosis at increased risk of low bone mineral density, particularly when CT examinations are already being performed for other clinical reasons.

    Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2025
    Background and objective Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global crisis, however, relatively little is known regarding its impact in chronic respiratory disease and the specific challenges faced by healthcare workers across the world in this field. We aimed to assess global healthcare worker views on the challenges they face regarding AMR in chronic respiratory disease. Methods An online survey was sent to healthcare workers globally working in chronic respiratory disease through a European Respiratory Society clinical research collaboration (AMR-Lung) focussed on AMR in chronic lung disease. Responses from different geographic regions were analysed. Results 279 responses were received across 60 countries. 54.5% of respondents encountered AMR in chronic respiratory disease weekly. There were differences in perceived high-priority diseases and species with AMR burden between Europe, Asia and Africa. 76.4% of respondents thought that inappropriate antimicrobial prescribing in chronic respiratory disease was common. However, only 43.4% of respondents thought that there were adequate antimicrobial stewardship programmes in their area for chronic respiratory disease, with limited availability in outpatient (29.0%) and ambulatory settings (24.7%). Developing rapid diagnostics for antimicrobial susceptibility (59.5%) was perceived to be the most common challenge in implementing antimicrobial stewardship, with an improved understanding of regional epidemiology of AMR strains the most important factor to improve outcome (55.2%). Conclusions AMR has significant perceived burden in chronic respiratory disease by healthcare professionals globally. However, current implementation of antimicrobial stewardship is limited, with significant challenges related to the availability of rapid diagnostics and understanding of regional epidemiology of AMR strains.

    Journal of Asthma, 2025
    Objective:Severe asthma burdens patients and presents clinical management challenges for healthcare professionals. Biologics are crucial interventions for severe type two (T2) patients with high eosinophil counts. We conducted a Delphi consensus in seven developing or typically underrepresented countries to understand expert agreement on managing severe asthma with type two (T2) inflammation. Methods:The study comprised two online survey rounds and a participant meeting, involving 21 and 20 respiratory experts in the first and second survey, respectively. We developed a 70-statement questionnaire after literature review. Responses were recorded on a Likert scale (0-9) with 75% consensus threshold. Results:Consensus was reached on 37/60 closed-ended questions, including subtypes, in survey-1 and 20/47 closed-ended questions in survey-2. 95% of participants agreed on biomarker use for biologic treatment selection. 100% agreed timely biologic treatment leads to improvement in patients with severe asthma and an eosinophilic phenotype. 90% agreed to avoid maintenance oral corticosteroids (OCS) and start biologic therapy directly. Experts defined clinical remission on treatment as no exacerbations, no OCS use, Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ)-5 score < 1.5, and lung function optimization (forced expiratory volume in one second [FEV1] ≥ 80% of predicted or pre-bronchodilator FEV1 increase ≥ 100 mL from baseline). In survey-1, 81% agreed these outcomes are achievable in practice. All referral statements achieved consensus. Conclusions:This Delphi study focused on understanding patients with severe asthma and T2 inflammation in developing/underrepresented countries. Appropriately utilizing biomarkers, timely treatment interventions for best outcomes, expert consensus on clinical remission, and referral are crucial for improving patient management.

    Jornal Brasileiro De Pneumologia, 2025
    Objective: Depression and anxiety have been documented in people with cystic fibrosis (CF), jeopardizing treatment adherence. To date, no studies have assessed the prevalence of psychosocial issues in adolescents with CF in Brazil. We sought to assess the prevalence of depression and anxiety in adolescents with CF in Brazil, as well as the impact of depression and anxiety on treatment adherence. Methods: This was a multicenter, prospective, observational, longitudinal study conducted between 2017 and 2019 at 14 CF referral centers in Brazil. We used standardized tools such as the nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire (for depression), the seven-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (for anxiety), and the eight-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (for treatment adherence) in order to collect data on 218 CF patients at two different time points. Results: The prevalence of depression was 19.1% at time point 1 and 15.4% at time point 2. The prevalence of anxiety was 19.1% at time point 1 and 18.0% at time point 2. Depression and anxiety were significantly higher in female patients and lower in those who underwent home physiotherapy or had psychological support. Significant correlations were found between depression and anxiety at both time points, the associations being strongest at time point 1 (r = 0.68; p &lt; 0.001). Most (66.7%) of the study participants reported low adherence to treatment, and the remainder reported either average adherence (in 28%) or high adherence (in 5.3%). Depression and anxiety showed inverse correlations with treatment adherence. Conclusions: The prevalence of depression and anxiety in adolescents with CF in Brazil appears to be similar to that reported in other countries, being higher in females and lower in those undergoing home physiotherapy or receiving psychological care. Depression and anxiety appear to correlate with lower treatment adherence. Treating psychosocial issues may effectively improve rates of treatment adherence in adolescents with CF.

    Journal of Cystic Fibrosis, 2024
    <h2>Abstract</h2><h3>Background</h3> Factors associated with severe COVID-19 infection have been identified; however, the impact of infection on longer-term outcomes is unclear. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of COVID-19 infection on the trajectory of lung function and nutritional status in people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). <h3>Methods</h3> This is a retrospective global cohort study of pwCF who had confirmed COVID-19 infection diagnosed between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2021. Forced expiratory volume in one second percent predicted (ppFEV<sub>1</sub>) and body mass index (BMI) twelve months prior to and following a diagnosis of COVID-19 were recorded. Change in mean ppFEV<sub>1</sub> and BMI were compared using a <i>t</i>-test. A linear mixed-effects model was used to estimate change over time and to compare the rate of change before and after infection. <h3>Results</h3> A total of 6,500 cases of COVID-19 in pwCF from 33 countries were included for analysis. The mean difference in ppFEV<sub>1</sub> pre- and post-infection was 1.4 %, (95 % CI 1.1, 1.7). In those not on modulators, the difference in rate of change pre- and post-infection was 1.34 %, (95 % CI -0.88, 3.56) per year (<i>p</i> = 0.24) and -0.74 % (-1.89, 0.41) per year (<i>p</i> = 0.21) for those on elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor. No clinically significant change was noted in BMI or BMI percentile before and after COVID-19 infection. <h3>Conclusions</h3> No clinically meaningful impact on lung function and BMI trajectory in the year following infection with COVID-19 was identified. This work highlights the ability of the global CF community to unify and address critical issues facing pwCF.

    IntroductionTheEXAcerbations ofChronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) and theirOutcomeS(EXACOS) International Study aimed to quantify the rate of severe exacerbations and examine healthcare resource utilisation (HCRU) and clinical outcomes in patients with COPD from low-income and middle-income countries.MethodsEXACOS International was an observational, cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection from medical records for a period of up to 5 years. Data were collected from 12 countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Hong Kong, Mexico, Panama, Russia and Taiwan. The study population comprised patients ≥40 years of age with COPD. Outcomes/variables included the prevalence of severe exacerbations, the annual rate of severe exacerbations and time between severe exacerbations; change in lung function over time (measured by the forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1)); peripheral blood eosinophil counts (BECs) and the prevalence of comorbidities; treatment patterns; and HCRU.ResultsIn total, 1702 patients were included in the study. The study population had a mean age of 69.7 years, with 69.4% males, and a mean body mass index of 26.4 kg/m2. The mean annual prevalence of severe exacerbations was 20.1%, and 48.4% of patients experienced ≥1 severe exacerbation during the 5-year study period. As the number of severe exacerbations increased, the interval between successive exacerbations decreased. A statistically significant decrease in mean (SD) FEV1from baseline to post-baseline was observed in patients with ≥1 severe exacerbation (1.23 (0.51) to 1.13 (0.52) L; p=0.0000). Mean BEC was 0.198 x109cells/L, with 64.7% of patients having a BEC ≥0.1 x109 cells/L and 21.3% having a BEC ≥0.3 x109 cells/L. The most common comorbidity was hypertension (58.3%). An increasing number of severe exacerbations per year was associated with greater HCRU.DiscussionThe findings presented here indicate that effective treatment strategies to prevent severe exacerbations in patients with COPD remain a significant unmet need in low-income and middle-income countries.

    Objective: To evaluate the effect of treatment with the combination of three cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators-elexacaftor+tezacaftor+ivacaftor (ETI)-on important clinical endpoints in individuals with cystic fibrosis. Methods: This was a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials that compared the use of ETI in individuals with CF and at least one F508del allele with that of placebo or with an active comparator such as other combinations of CFTR modulators, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) recommendations and the Patients of interest, Intervention to be studied, Comparison of interventions, and Outcome of interest (PICO) methodology. We searched the following databases: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and ClinicalTrials.gov from their inception to December 26th, 2022. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool, and the quality of evidence was based on the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE). Results: We retrieved 54 studies in the primary search. Of these, 6 met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed (1,127 patients; 577 and 550 in the intervention and control groups, respectively). The meta-analysis revealed that the use of ETI increased FEV1% [risk difference (RD), +10.47%; 95% CI, 6.88-14.06], reduced the number of acute pulmonary exacerbations (RD, -0.16; 95% CI, -0.28 to -0.04), and improved quality of life (RD, +14.93; 95% CI, 9.98-19.89) and BMI (RD, +1.07 kg/m2; 95% CI, 0.90-1.25). Adverse events did not differ between groups (RD, -0.03; 95% CI, -0.08 to 0.01), and none of the studies reported deaths. Conclusions: Our findings demonstrate that ETI treatment substantially improves clinically significant, patient-centered outcomes.
