Use of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) in the diagnosis of SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19).

TL;DR: Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) contains lower respiratory droplets that may improve detection of SARS-CoV-2 genes and was positive in NPS negative/clinically positive patients in 66.3% of cases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of complement component 3 is associated with airways disease and pulmonary emphysema in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.

TL;DR: The association between plasma C3D levels and pulmonary disease severity, that decrease in response to AAT augmentation therapy, supports the exploration of C3d as a candidate biomarker of therapeutic efficacy in AATD.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: There is good correlation between the trend of protein abundance levels in BALF and that of plasma which validates this approach to develop a blood biomarker to aid lung cancer diagnosis, particularly in the era of lung cancer screening.
