Although bronchiectasis research has significantly increased over the past years and different endotypes have been identified, there are still major gaps in the understanding of the pathophysiology. Genomic approaches may help to identify new endotypes, as has been shown in other chronic airway diseases, such as COPD.Different studies have started to work in this direction, and significant contributions to the understanding of the microbiome and proteome diversity have been made in bronchiectasis in recent years. However, the systematic application of omics approaches to identify new molecular insights into the pathophysiology of bronchiectasis (endotypes) is still limited compared with other respiratory diseases.Given the complexity and diversity of these technologies, this review describes the key components of the pathophysiology of bronchiectasis and how genomics can be applied to increase our knowledge, including the study of new techniques such as proteomics, metabolomics and epigenomics. Furthermore, we propose that the novel concept of trained innate immunity, which is driven by microbiome exposures leading to epigenetic modifications, can complement our current understanding of the vicious vortex.

This narrative review focuses on the common ground of bronchiectasis and NTM pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) in terms of diagnostic approach, underlying risk factors and treatment strategies. NTM-PD diagnosis relies on a combination of clinical, radiological and microbiological criteria. Although their epidemiology is complicated by detection and reporting biases, the prevalence and pathogenicity of NTM species vary geographically, with <i>Mycobacterium avium</i> complex and <i>Mycobacterium abscessus</i> subspecies most frequently isolated in bronchiectasis-associated NTM-PD. Diagnosis of nodular bronchiectatic NTM-PD should prompt investigation of host factors, including disorders of mucociliary clearance, connective tissue diseases and immunodeficiencies, either genetic or acquired. Treatment of NTM-PD in bronchiectasis involves a multidisciplinary approach and considers the (sub)species involved, disease severity and comorbidities. Current guideline-based antimicrobial treatment of NTM-PD is considered long, cumbersome and unsatisfying in terms of outcomes. Novel treatment regimens and strategies are being explored, including rifampicin-free regimens and inclusion of clofazimine and inhaled antibiotics. Host-directed therapies, such as immunomodulators and cytokine-based therapies, might enhance antimycobacterial immune responses. Optimising supportive care, as well as pathogen- and host-directed strategies, is crucial, highlighting the need for personalised approaches tailored to individual patient needs.

As a consequence, the syndrome is underdiagnosed, prognostication has important gaps and selection of the appropriate therapeutic approach is laborious. In recent years, the noncoding transcriptome has emerged as a new area of attention for researchers interested in biomarker development. Numerous studies have confirmed the potential of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), transcripts with little or no coding information, as noninvasive tools for diagnosis, prognosis and prediction of the therapeutic response across a broad spectrum of ailments, including respiratory conditions. This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of lncRNAs with specific emphasis on their role as biomarkers. We review current knowledge on the circulating lncRNAs as potential markers that can be used to enhance decision making in ARDS management. Additionally, we address the primary limitations and outline the steps that will be essential for integration of the use of lncRNAs in clinical laboratories.

Potential sequelae of untreated SDB includes failure to thrive, cardiopulmonary disease, impaired learning and behavioural issues. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of SDB is important to facilitate early intervention and improve outcomes.The current gold-standard diagnostic test for SDB is polysomnography (PSG), which is expensive, requiring the interpretation of a highly specialised physiologist. PSG is not feasible in low-income countries or outwith specialist sleep centres. During the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, efforts were made to improve remote monitoring and diagnostics in paediatric sleep medicine, resulting in a paradigm shift in SDB technology with a focus on automated diagnosis harnessing artificial intelligence (AI). AI enables interrogation of large datasets, setting the scene for an era of \"sleep-omics\", characterising the endotypic and phenotypic bedrock of SDB by drawing on genetic, lifestyle and demographic information. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recently announced a programme for the development of automated home-testing devices for SDB.
