• Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS, Berlin criteria, lung-protective ventilation, prone positioning)
• Asthma (airway hyperresponsiveness, GINA stepwise therapy)
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD, GOLD classification, bronchodilators)
• Cystic Fibrosis (CFTR mutations, CFTR modulators, pancreatic insufficiency)
• Influenza (seasonal flu, antiviral therapy)
• Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD, IPF, antifibrotic therapy, HRCT patterns)
• Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA, AHI scoring, CPAP, hypoglossal nerve stimulation)
• Pleural Effusion (transudative vs exudative, Light's criteria, thoracentesis)
• Pneumonia (CAP, HAP, VAP, empiric antibiotic selection)
• Pulmonary Embolism (Wells criteria, CT angiography, anticoagulation, PESI score)
• Pulmonary Hypertension (WHO groups I-V, right heart catheterization, vasodilators)
• Sarcoidosis (non-caseating granulomas, bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy, corticosteroids)
