The Cochrane Airways Group assists in the production and maintenance of systematic reviews and a register of trials that assess the effects of treatments in the management of obstructive or inflammatory diseases of the airway. Our reviews and our trials register cover the following:

• Chronic and acute asthma (including allergic / atopic asthma, exercise-induced asthma, and occupational asthma)
• Stable and acute chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (chronic bronchitis/emphysema)
• Obstructive sleep apnoea
• Non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis
• Interstitial lung disease, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary sarcoidosis
• Pulmonary hypertension
• Chronic cough
