More pulmonology trends
All specialties →New treatments for sleep apnoea
Tirzepatide, hypoglossal nerve stimulation and drug therapy for obstructive sleep apnoea.
Key point: Pharmacological therapy is not routine OSA treatment; dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists such as tirzepatide may be considered adjunctively for obese moderate-to-severe OSA.
High-flow nasal oxygen
High-flow nasal oxygen in acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure.
Key point: HFNC is strongly recommended for adults with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, with close monitoring for escalation, based primarily on reduced need for intubation.
Biologics in COPD
Dupilumab and other biologics for COPD with type 2 inflammation.
Key point: Pooled analyses suggest dupilumab and mepolizumab consistently reduce moderate-to-severe exacerbations in eosinophilic or type 2 inflammatory COPD.
Robotic and navigational bronchoscopy
Robotic and navigation bronchoscopy to biopsy peripheral lung nodules.
Antifibrotics in pulmonary fibrosis
Nintedanib, pirfenidone and newer antifibrotics.
Biologics in severe asthma
Biologic therapies for severe asthma.
Key point: Biologic choice in adult severe asthma can be impacted by quality of life impairment, lung function, exacerbation frequency, oral corticosteroid use, endotype, biomarkers and comorbidities.

How these numbers are counted
PubMed query, searched in titles and abstracts by publication date:
bronchiectasis[tiab]Trials: ClinicalTrials.gov studies first submitted in each 12-month window that match the same terms. A query can miss synonyms or catch unrelated papers, so treat counts as approximate.
