When refering to evidence in academic writing, you should always try to reference the primary (original) source. That is usually the journal article where the information was first stated. In most cases Physiopedia articles are a secondary source and so should not be used as references. Physiopedia articles are best used to find the original sources of information (see the references list at the bottom of the article).

Introduction[edit | edit source]

There are two types of respiratory diseases and disorders: Infectious and Chronic.

Pulmonary infections are most commonly bacterial or viral. In the viral type, a pathogen replicates inside a cell and causes a disease, such as the flu.
Chronic diseases, eg asthma, are persistent and long-lasting. They can relapse and the patient can go into remission, only to suffer symptoms again at a later time^[1].
