Rationale: Moderate-Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA, AHI>15) disturbs sleep through frequent bouts of apnea and is associated with daytime sleepiness. However, many individuals without moderate-severe OSA (i.e., AHI<15) also report sleepiness. Objective: To test the hypothesis that sleepiness in the AHI<15 group is a consequence of substantial flow limitation, in the absence of overt reductions in airflow (i.e., apnea/hypopnea). Methods: N=1886 participants from the MESA sleep cohort were analyzed for frequency of flow limitation from polysomnogram recorded nasal airflow signal...

INTRODUCTION: Chronic lung disease (CLD) has been associated with risk for more severe manifestations and death with COVID-19. However, few studies have evaluated the risk overall and by type of CLD for severity of COVID-19 outcomes in a US national cohort. METHODS: Using data from the Veterans Health Administration, we determined the risk associated with CLDs including COPD (mild/severe), asthma (mild/active/severe), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), sarcoidosis and other interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) for outcomes among veterans with SARS-CoV-2 positive tests between 3/1/2020-4/30/2021...

Rationale: Rates of emphysema progression vary in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and the relationship with vascular and airway pathophysiology remain unclear. Objective: We sought to determine if indices of peripheral (segmental and beyond) pulmonary arterial (PA) dilation measured via computed tomography (CT) are associated with a 1-year index of emphysema (EI: %voxels<-950HU) progression. Methods: 599 GOLD 0-3 former and never-smokers were evaluated from the SubPopulations and InterMediate Outcome Measures in COPD Study (SPIROMICS) cohort: rapid-emphysema-progressors (RP, n=188; 1-year ΔEI>1%), non-progressors (NP, n=301; 1-year ΔEI±0...

RATIONALE: Air pollution is a major risk factor for chronic cardiorespiratory diseases, affecting both the immune and respiratory systems' functionality, while the epidemiological evidence on respiratory infections remains sparse. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess the association of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution with risk of developing new and recurrent ALRIs that characterized by persistently severe symptoms necessitating hospital contact, and identify the potential susceptible populations by socio-economic status (SES), smoking, physical activity status, overweight, and co-morbidity with chronic lung disease...

RATIONALE: Hospital-free days (HFDs), a measure of the number of days alive spent outside the hospital, is increasingly used as an endpoint in studies of patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) or other critical and serious illnesses. Current approaches to measuring HFDs do not account for decrements in functional status or quality of life that ARF survivors and family members value. OBJECTIVES: To develop an acceptable approach to measure quality-weighted HFDs using patient-reported outcomes...

RATIONALE: Adult and pediatric studies provide conflicting data whether post-cardiac arrest hypoxemia, hyperoxemia, hypercapnia and/or hypocapnia are associated with worse outcomes. OBJECTIVES: Determine if post-arrest hypoxemia or post-arrest hyperoxemia are associated with lower rates of survival to hospital discharge compared to post-arrest normoxemia, and if post-arrest hypocapnia or hypercapnia are associated with lower rates of survival compared to post-arrest normocapnia...

Rationale: Apneics have reduced airway caliber during sleep. The biomechanical changes in upper airway anatomy contributing to this airway narrowing are largely unknown. Objectives: To investigate the state-dependent (wake vs. sleep) biomechanical behavior of the upper airway soft-tissue and craniofacial structures. Methods: Upper airway magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 15 sleep-deprived controls (AHI<5; 0.3±0.5 events/hour) and 12 sleep-deprived apneics (AHI≥5; 35.2±18.1 events/hour) during wake and sleep and analyzed for airway measures and soft-tissue/mandibular movement...

RATIONALE: Nocturnal hypoxemia is common in sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Although impaired diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) is associated with daytime hypoxemia, its influence on SDB-related nocturnal hypoxemia is not known. OBJECTIVE: To characterize the effects of DLCO impairment on SDB-related nocturnal hypoxemia and associated health outcomes. METHODS: Data from a multi-center cohort of men with and without HIV, with concomitant measures of DLCO and home-based polysomnography (N=544), were analyzed...

RATIONALE: Endotracheal intubation is the third most common bedside procedure in U.S. hospitals. In over 40% of intubations preventable complications attributable to human factors occur. A better understanding of team dynamics during intubation may improve patient safety. OBJECTIVE: To explore team dynamics and safety-related actions during emergent endotracheal intubations in the emergency department (ED) and intensive care unit (ICU), and to engage members of the care team in reflection for process improvement through a novel video-based team debriefing technique...

RATIONALE: Exposure to particulate matter is associated with various adverse health outcomes. Ultrafine particles are a unique public health challenge due to their size. However, limited studies have examined their impacts on human health, especially across seasons and demographics.

RATIONALE: The use of race-specific reference values to evaluate pulmonary function has long been embedded into clinical practice; however, there is a growing consensus that this practice may be inappropriate and that use of race-neutral equations should be adopted to improve access to healthcare. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate if using race-neutral equations to assess percent predicted forced vital capacity (FVC%pred) impacts eligibility for clinical trials, antifibrotic therapy and referral for lung transplantation in Black, Hispanic/Latino, and White patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) Methods: FVC%pred values for patients from the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry were calculated using race-specific (Hankinson 1999), race-agnostic (Global Lung Function Initiative [GLI]-2012), and race-neutral (GLI-2022 or GLI-Global) equations...
