Bronchial Dilation Study in Polynesian Patients
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This is a retrospective study (looking back at medical records) examining bronchial dilation—a condition where airways in the lungs become abnormally enlarged—in Polynesian patients. Researchers want to understand this condition better by reviewing past medical records from 2010–2020.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are of Polynesian descent
- You have been diagnosed with bronchial dilation (enlarged airways in the lungs)
- You were either treated at Centre hospitalier de Polynésie Française between 2010–2020, or were treated there before that period
- You are willing to allow your medical records from 2010–2020 to be reviewed (if still receiving care at the hospital)
- This is a records-review study; no new treatments or visits are required

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is studying how a mask that helps you breathe (non-invasive ventilation) affects people with bronchiectasis (a condition where airways in the lungs are stretched and scarred). It may help doctors understand if this treatment improves quality of life or slows the disease.
This study looks at the community of tiny organisms in the lungs (the lung microbiome) in people with bronchiectasis caused by NTM (non-tuberculous mycobacteria). It compares people with positive NTM cultures to people without, to better understand what’s going on in the lungs and why symptoms may differ.
This study looks at how bacteria live in the lungs of people with bronchiectasis and how they may adapt over time. It may help researchers understand why infections keep coming back and how to better manage chronic lung colonization.
This study looks at why bronchiectasis gets worse over time. It may help doctors understand the disease better and find better ways to monitor or treat it.
This study looks at the genes and health data of people with bronchiectasis to better understand the disease. It may help find new ways to treat or manage your condition.
This study looks at how different types of inflammation in your sputum (mucus you cough up) relate to your lung health over time. It aims to understand why some people with bronchiectasis do better than others, which may help improve future treatments.
