Respir Care
. 2017 Dec;
63(4):430-440.
PMID: 29208759
Background: With increased survival rates and the consequent emergence of an adult population with cystic fibrosis (CF), developing novel tools for periodic evaluations of these patients has become a new...

Comput Methods Programs Biomed
. 2017 May;
144:113-125.
PMID: 28494995
Background And Objectives: The main pathologic feature of asthma is episodic airway obstruction. This is usually detected by spirometry and body plethysmography. These tests, however, require a high degree of...
