This updated edition of the ATS Reading List includes articles published through December 2021. We have added and removed a substantial number of articles and further refined the overall organization of the syllabus.
The primary goal of the ATS Reading List is to compile clinically relevant articles familiar to all “well-read” adult pulmonary and critical care physicians. Clinicians wishing to delve into influential original research articles rather than rely solely on the distilled summaries offered by review articles will find it to be a particularly rich resource. The Reading List is not intended to be a “Best Evidence Guide” to pulmonary and critical care medicine, substitute for on-line resources like UpToDate, or serve as another Board Review tool.
