Defining central tumours to predict occult mediastinal metastasis in nonsmall cell lung cancer patients
This ERJ article compares seven definitions of central tumour, and recommends a definition using the inner one-third of the hemithorax, adopted by drawing concentric lines from the midline. This is useful to predict occult N2 disease in NSCLC patients.
Predicting EGFR mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma using deep learning and CT imaging
A study published in the ERJ added deep learning to routinely used CT techniques for lung cancer diagnosis, and found that this can provide a non-invasive and easy-to-use method for EGFR mutation status prediction
COPD biomarkers and phenotypes offer opportunities for precision imaging
A new series in the ERJ examines current controversies and advances in COPD. As part of this series, this article discusses how recent advances in thoracic imaging may be used for the early detection of disease and targeted treatment for patients.
Exhaled air dispersion during high-flow nasal cannula therapy versus CPAP
This study found that exhaled air dispersion from HFNC and CPAP is limited provided there is good mask interface fitting. However, exhaled air leakage can occur when the connection between HFNC and the interface tube becomes loose.
Open access journals from ERS
ERS publishes three open access journals and can satisfy most funder mandates. Explore ERJ Open Research, the European Respiratory Review and Breathe using the dropdown above.

The European Respiratory Journal - current impact factor 12.242 - is the flagship journal of the European Respiratory Society.

The ERJ publishes clinical and experimental work relating to all aspects of adult and paediatric respiratory medicine, including cell biology, epidemiology, immunology, oncology, pathophysiology, imaging, occupational medicine, intensive care, sleep medicine and thoracic surgery. In addition to original research material, the ERJ also publishes editorial commentaries, reviews, short research letters and correspondence to the editor. Articles are published continuously and collected into 12 monthly issues in two volumes per year.
