What we're your hottest takeaways from Boston? 🔎
The first slide from the July 2025 issue of Journal Watch, titled "Pediatric lung transplantation for childhood interstitial lung disease: Indications and outcome." For a more screenreader friendly version, the full issue PDF is at https://www.ishlt.org/docs/default-source/journal-watch/2025-07-journalwatch-pediatrics.pdf
The 1st study this month compares outcomes of children undergoing #LungTx w/childhood interstitial lung disease (chILD) compared to cystic fibrosis/PH. The study, from @jhlt.bsky.social, showed chILD has favorable transplant outcomes.
We'll share more studies later this month.
The third slide from the June 2025 issue of Journal Watch, titled "Lived experiences for individuals with cystic fibrosis who have undergone lung transplantation: a qualitative study." For a more screenreader friendly version, the full issue PDF is at https://www.ishlt.org/docs/default-source/journal-watch/2025-06-journalwatch-nah.pdf
The final study reviews the distinct experiences people with #CysticFibrosis encounter before & after #LungTx, highlighting their unique physical/emotional challenges, and suggesting what #transplant nurses and psychologists can do to support them.

The first slide from the June 2025 issue of Journal Watch, titled "Evaluation of health literacy in lung transplant candidates." For a more screenreader friendly version, the full issue PDF is at https://www.ishlt.org/docs/default-source/journal-watch/2025-06-journalwatch-nah.pdf
The first study focuses on health literacy in #LungTx candidates. This study in #JHLTOpen showed nearly 25% of candidates screened had limited health literacy—and only those with adequate health literacy were ultimately transplanted.
We'll share more studies from the issue later this month.
Thanks for sharing this important document in #LungTx! You can find this and many more key documents from #ISHLT on our website: www.ishlt.org/education-an...
