El asma es una enfermedad que, debido a su creciente prevalencia y a sus amplias repercusiones, sigue siendo objeto de estudio con el fin de poder comprender mejor sus mecanismos subyacentes y así mejorar tanto […]
Endoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) has emerged as an evidence-based, minimally invasive therapeutic option for patients with severe pulmonary emphysema who remain highly symptomatic despite optimal medical therapy and pulmonary rehabilitation. This SEPAR Clinical Protocol […]
La enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) es una patología respiratoria prevalente que a menudo se asocia con diversas comorbilidades. Estas condiciones concomitantes suelen estar infradiagnosticadas y conllevan un mayor riesgo de mortalidad. El manejo adecuado […]
Antibiotic-resistant respiratory infections necessitate alternative or adjunctive therapeutic strategies to reduce the bacterial burden in patients, particularly in the context of hospital-acquired infections. Bacteriophage therapy has emerged as a promising tool, with a resurgence of […]
El 58.° Congreso SEPAR, Bilbao, junio del 2025, consolidó su posición como referente científico y de diálogo interdisciplinar para la comunidad respiratoria internacional. Se abordaron de manera crítica y constructiva las nuevas guías clínicas, los […]
Introducción Las consultas de alta resolución (CARE-A) son una herramienta eficiente en la reducción de los costes asociados al tratamiento y seguimiento de los pacientes con asma bronquial, que además se benefician de una atención […]
Background Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death. Early detection strategies include LC screening (LCS) with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) and incidental pulmonary nodule clinics (IPNCs). This study describes the structure, workflow, […]
Introduction Hypertension is the leading cause of cardiovascular disease, with nocturnal blood pressure (BP) abnormalities (nocturnal hypertension and non-dipping BP) linked to heightened risk. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a modifiable contributor to impaired nighttime BP […]
Introduction The diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requires the demonstration of poorly reversible airflow obstruction (defined by a forced expiratory volume in 1s [FEV1]/forced vital capacity [FVC] ratio
Introduction Modifiable factors such as obesity, vitamin D deficiency, and eosinophilia may contribute to increased asthma severity, but their combined impact remains underexplored, especially in resource-limited settings. This study aimed to investigate the independent and […]
