    Abstract Oral isotretinoin is a synthetic analog of vitamin - A, reserved for cases with severe resistant acne. We hereby report a case of drug-induced vasculitis (DV) from isotretinoin exposure leading to life-threatening pulmonary-renal syndrome requiring immunosuppression and plasmapheresis. A previously healthy 21-year-old female receiving oral isotretinoin presented with a 10-day history of worsening myalgias, arthralgias, and abdominal pain. Soon after admission she progressed to severe pulmonary-renal syndrome requiring intubation and renal replacement therapy. Urinalysis revealed >50 dysmorphic RBC with casts and renal ultrasound was unremarkable. Serological testing was only positive for antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA) at 1:80 with Anti- proteinase 3 (PR3) at 830 AU/mL and Anti-histone Ab at 2.9. As clinical presentation and serology are highly suggestive of ANCA associated DV, plasmapheresis, and rituximab were also initiated along with the continuation of steroids. She clinically improved but remained dialysis dependent and received a live donor renal transplant. The temporal relationship of symptom onset and drug initiation with no other possible identifiable etiologies-DV in our case was attributed to isotretinoin exposure. Though considered safe, oral Isotretinoin in rare instances can cause the life-threatening pulmonary-renal syndrome. Given its widespread use, it is prudent that prescribers should educate patients regarding the possible symptoms of vasculitis and to seek immediate medical attention when warranted. Physicians should also be vigilant of this complication and should act swiftly to avoid uneventful outcomes.

    Abstract Background: Bronchodilation testing is an important component of spirometry testing, and omitting this procedure has potential clinical implications toward diagnosing respiratory diseases. We aimed to estimate the impact of bronchodilator testing in accurately diagnosing COPD and differentiating COPD from asthma-COPD overlap (ACO).
    Methods: The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data were analyzed from 2007-2012. Airflow limitation was defined by FEV
    Results: We identified 11,763 subjects ≥ 40 y of age eligible for spirometry; 625 of them had a pre-bronchodilator FEV
    Conclusions: Spirometry with bronchodilation is an important element in the accurate diagnosis of ACO and COPD. Spirometry performed without bronchodilator testing may lead to an estimated misclassification of ACO by 7.6% to 19.8% and overdiagnosis of COPD by 39%.

    Abstract Case presentation: A 48-year-old female never smoker with hypothyroidism and no significant prior respiratory complaints presented with 1 month of gradually worsening dyspnea on exertion. She denied any associated fevers, chills, weight loss, chest pain, productive cough, hemoptysis, or sick contacts. She was recently diagnosed with stage IV triple negative adenocarcinoma of the breast and was yet to receive chemotherapy.

    Abstract Introduction: COPD is a heterogeneous disorder with varied phenotypes. We aimed to determine the prevalence of asthma history, peripheral eosinophilia and elevated FeNO levels along with the diagnostic utility of peripheral eosinophilia in identifying airway eosinophilic inflammation.
    Methods: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data were analysed for the study period 2007-2010. Subjects aged ≥40 years with postbronchodilator FEV
    Results: A total of 3 110 617 weighted COPD cases were identified; predominantly male (64.4%) and non-Hispanic whites (86.1%). Among our COPD subjects, 14.6% had a history of doctor diagnosed asthma, highest among females and other race Americans. The overall prevalence of peripheral eosinophilia is 36%, 38.3% among COPD subjects with asthma history, and 35.6% among COPD without asthma history. The overall prevalence of elevated FeNO ≥25 ppb is 14.3%; 28.7% among COPD subjects with asthma history and 13.0% among COPD without asthma history.
    Discussion: The prevalence of FeNO levels ≥25 ppb and peripheral eosinophilia was significantly higher among COPD subjects with asthma compared with COPD without asthma history. Not all COPD subjects with peripheral eosinophilia and elevated FeNO levels have a reported history of asthma. Our study supports clinically phenotyping COPD subjects with eosinophilic inflammation be independent of their asthma history and peripheral eosinophilia can be used as a surrogate marker in resource-limited settings.
