Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic respiratory diseases are posing a considerable burden to society, patients, caretakers and medical professionals. In addition to the well-known contributing factors, air pollution and climate change have emerged as new reasons for the increase in the frequency of diagnoses and exacerbations of chronic respiratory conditions.
Simultaneously, novel aspects of respiratory pathophysiology are being described, new management modalities introduced, and treatment paradigms revisited and modified.
In this context, we are honored to invite you to submit your valuable contribution to the new Special Issue of Medicina, aiming to provide a comprehensive insight into the novel trends in research and clinical management of chronic respiratory diseases, including, but not limited to, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary fibrosis, chronic rhinosinusitis, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis and other conditions.
Reviews, original research, case reports and case series descriptions, as well as real-world data presentations are contribution formats that we invite you to submit.
We encourage you to be part of this fascinating project!
