Respiration

Scope

Respiration brings together the results of both clinical and experimental investigations on all aspects of the respiratory system in health and disease. Clinical improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of chest and lung diseases are covered, as are the latest findings in physiology, biochemistry, pathology, immunology and pharmacology. The journal includes classic features such as editorials that accompany original articles in clinical and basic science research, reviews and letters to the editor. Further sections are: The Eye Catcher, What’s Your Diagnosis?, New Insights from Clinical Practice and Guidelines. Respiration is the official journal of the Swiss Respiratory Society (SGP) and Italian Thoracic Society (ITS-AIPO), as well as home to the European Association for Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology (EABIP), which occupies a dedicated section on Interventional Pulmonology in the journal. This modern mix of different features and a stringent peer-review process by a dedicated editorial board make Respiration a complete guide to progress in thoracic medicine.
