Asthma: Moderate/high dose inhaled steroids - uncommonly - cause CVD, pneumonia and PEs. V difficult study to do to avoid bias. Required 2 large datasets and multiple different studies. Patients should only get the ICS dose they need! Professor Azeem Majeed atsjournals.org/doi/abs/10.116…

Maybe cuz I need to do all those experiments the reviewers want 😅 Are you in this picture and if so which one are you?

Very happy to share I am the new UK and Ireland Occupational and Environmental Society secretary EpiSoc Really looking forward to being part of this team. If you are at the #ERSCongress this year and want to learn more about our society let me know!🫁

We’ve had a delightful evening meeting our travel award winners and researchers at our Asthma + Lung UK reception. Together we’ll help to reduce respiratory morbidity and mortality by 20%. #ERSCongress

Delighted to have presented this work at the #ERSCongress2024 in Vienna. I met great people and listened to interesting presentations. 🫁Thank you to Asthma + Lung UK Research for the travel award to attend this conference and to my supervisors for their support #TeamAmaral

Fully funded PhD studentships MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) to start next year. One of the openings is in my team CVGenomics if cardiovascular genomics and/or data science for precision healthcare is your thing. And a fantastic line up of other opportunities if you interests lie elsewhere...

Very pleased to see this piece of work being cited and discussed in the editorials of the current CHEST Journal issue 🫁 sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #TeamAmaral #mortality #LungDiseases

Is spirometry-defined small airways obstruction associated with increased mortality? Read the full research in the October issue of the journal CHEST®: hubs.la/Q02WdS7Z0 #MedEd #JournalCHEST

Proud to share my latest publication on occupational exposures in LMICs! 🌎 It highlights the urgent need for accurate reporting and tailored interventions to address high, regionally varied exposure levels that threaten workers' health. 📄 journals.plos.org/globalpubliche… #TeamAmaral

We found in 2 studies, metformin (cheap, available, oral) associated with 30% lower asthma attacks. Adding GLP-1 had 40% further effect. This was not from better glycaemic control or weight loss! Seen in T2 low & high asthma! @BoheeLEE4 Aziz Sheikh NHLI Asthma + Lung UK Research

A CHEST research letter explores the association between age at smoking initiation and #cessation and respiratory mortality in more than 500,000 adults. Read the full research in the November issue of the journal CHEST®: hubs.la/Q02Yr3kx0 #MedEd #JournalCHEST

GWASs require huge samples that are unrealistic for uncommon diseases🧬 📊KGWAS uses GNNs to integrate multi-modal functional genomic data enabling 👉2x GWAS power at 1K sample size 👉2.6X fewer samples for same number of variant associations 👉more efficient post-GWAS analyses

ERJ Open Research: Chronic cough is relatively common. This study highlights the complexity of chronic cough management and the need for further research and diagnostic tools to improve patient outcomes. bit.ly/3XPIyCc

Abnormal oscillometry relates to airway obstruction, health status, dyspnoea and future exacerbations in COPD. However, further studies are needed to investigate how oscillometry could be integrated in monitoring and risk assessment of COPD patients. bit.ly/42xHs11
