چکیده
s from European Respiratory Journal A New Service for our Readership T he European Respiratory Journal is the official journal of the European Respiratory Society. It was formed from a merger of the Bulletin European de Physiopathologie Respiratoire and the European Journal of Respiratory Diseases. This periodical is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal which publishes original investigations from researchers throughout the world. The primary emphasis, however, is on clinical research in European countries. We believe that reports of these investigations, both basic and clinical, may be of considerable interest to physicians in North America, South America, and the Orient as well. Therefore, in cooperation with Professor Paul Vermeire, Editor-in-Chief of the European Respiratory Journal, we would like to offer the readers of Chest selected abstracts from current issues of Professor Vermeire’s periodical. In this issue of Chest, we inaugurate this new section. This month, and in subsequent issues, the exact location of the abstracts will be shown on the contents page.
