"In this project, we collected clinical data of two groups of patients. We initially recruited 100 participants and collected some initial data. This data was then passed to the team led by Sandeep Salvi in India, who requested AAIP to collect further details from 43 of these 100 participants. Hence the 43 participants from whom further data was collected was a subset of the overall 100 participants that were initially recruited by AAIP. We will describe them one by one below: Group of 100 persons For this group of persons, we collected the following information: • Clinical histories of study participants stored in excel files including sensitive information like gender and age. • The results of their breathing tests (Spirometry readings) as excel graphs converted to PDFs. Subgroup of 43 patients Out of these 100 people, 43 were recommended by the researchers (Prof Sandeep Salvi) for further investigation, and the following additional data was collected.

1. X-ray reports as image files.
2. X-ray images
3. Clinical notes of specialist doctors when they examined these group of patients. These will be image files of their handwritten notes.

All highly sensitive information in clinical histories like name and phone number, address etc have been replaced with numeric codes to avoid any risk to privacy"
