This is by no means earth breaking news. I was raised in a household of medical professionals...my Dad was a cardiovascular physiologist and Mom is a radiologist. Shhot, I’ve known about clubbing of the digits as a clinical symptom of lung disease (particulary pronounced in COPD patients) since I was 5 years old.

Oh yeah, they just chatted around the house about it being caused by inability to break down PGE2 but never got around to publishing it, right?
