Eosinophils in COPD Exacerbations Are Associated With Increased Readmissions
TL;DR: Blood eosinophil levels can be used as a biomarker in severe COPD exacerbations for predicting higher readmission rates, and sensitivity analyses revealed a proportional increase in effect size with increasing eos inophil cell count definitions for predicting 12‐month readmissions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a risk scale predicting asthma attacks based on the blood eosinophil count and exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) was proposed to predict asthma attacks.

Blood Eosinophil Depletion with Mepolizumab, Benralizumab and Prednisolone in Eosinophilic Asthma
Angela Moran,Sanjay Ramakrishnan,Catherine Borg,Clare Connolly,Simon Couillard,Simon Couillard,Christine Mwasuku,Ian D. Pavord,Hinks Tsc.,Lauri Lehtimӓki +9 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that benralizumab and prednisolone might work equally rapidly and faster than mepolizumAB because of induction of apoptosis and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: A typology of CTs one year after a first hospitalization for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is proposed, which allows for a better representation of the sequences of healthcare use in the real world, supporting data-driven decision making.
Eosinophil counts in first COPD hospitalizations: a comparison of health service utilization.

TL;DR: Higher blood eosinophil cell count at admission for a COPD exacerbation is associated with increased COPD readmission rates in patients with infrequent COPD hospitalizations.
