Haemophilus, antibiotic therapy and the airway microbiome in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Simon E Brill, Phillip L James, Leah Cuthbertson, Ana Zhu, Trevor Lawley, William OCM Cookson, Michael J Cox, Jadwiga A Wedzicha, Miriam F Moffatt

This study examines the airway microbiome in COPD patients, finding that Haemophilus influenzae dominance is associated with increased inflammation and that moxifloxacin reduces H. influenzae levels.
