Aim and Scope

Aim:

Respiratory Medicine aims to provide a comprehensive platform for the publication of original research, reviews, and clinical studies focused on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases that affect the respiratory system. The journal seeks to enhance understanding of respiratory conditions and improve the health outcomes of patients by disseminating innovative research findings and clinical practices.

Scope:

The scope of Respiratory Medicine typically includes, but is not limited to:

• Respiratory Diseases: Asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, tuberculosis, interstitial lung disease, and pulmonary hypertension.
• Respiratory Infections: Viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic infections affecting the respiratory system.
• Lung Function and Physiology: Studies on pulmonary function testing, ventilation, gas exchange, and other aspects of lung physiology.
• Respiratory Therapies and Treatments: Clinical trials and studies on medical, pharmacological, and surgical interventions for respiratory diseases.
• Critical Care and Pulmonology: Topics such as mechanical ventilation, respiratory failure, and ICU management of respiratory conditions.
• Pulmonary Imaging: Research into imaging techniques (e.g., CT, MRI, ultrasound) for diagnosing and monitoring respiratory diseases.
• Allergy and Immunology: Research on allergic respiratory diseases, such as allergic rhinitis and related immune responses.
• Environmental and Occupational Lung Diseases: Studies on the effects of air pollution, smoking, occupational hazards, and environmental factors on respiratory health.
• Sleep Medicine: Research into conditions like obstructive sleep apnea and their impact on respiratory function.
• Pediatric Pulmonology: Studies focusing on respiratory disorders in children and infants.
