Baritosis
MONDO:0001001A rare type of pneumoconiosis caused by long standing exposure to barium dust. It is characterized by the formation of fine dense lesions in the lung parenchyma. The lesions do not affect the lung function and disappear without treatment after the exposure to barium dust stops.
Also known as: deposition of barium in the lungs, inhalation of barytes

Can remote rehab help lung patients breathe easier?
Symptom relief OngoingThis pilot study tests whether home-based or video-supervised exercise programs are acceptable and helpful for people with chronic lung diseases like IPF, sarcoidosis, bronchiectasis, asthma, and other interstitial lung diseases. Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to on…

Scientists hunt for clues in the blood to predict lung fibrosis outcomes
Knowledge-focused ENROLLING_BY_INVITATIONThis study looks for biological markers in blood and lung samples from people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and other interstitial lung diseases. The goal is to find markers that can predict how the disease will progress and to group patients into subtypes. Researchers…

Lung disease study probes hidden environmental triggers
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study looks at how things in the environment and at work might affect people with interstitial lung diseases (a group of lung conditions). Researchers will ask 1,000 adults with a new diagnosis about their exposures to things like pollution, chemicals, and dust. The goal is …

New breath test could replace painful lung scopes
Knowledge-focused ENROLLING_BY_INVITATIONThis study aims to see if a simple, non-invasive breathing test can accurately measure the acidity (pH) in the airways, which is often abnormal in lung diseases. Researchers will compare results from this breath test with standard methods in 150 healthy volunteers and people with…

Brain scans reveal hidden links between body diseases and metabolism
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study watches 200 people with lung, gut, or hormone diseases over time using special brain scans (PET). It aims to see how these diseases change brain activity and whether those changes can predict tumor return, spread, or survival. No new treatment is tested—just observatio…
