To a Problem of Not Increasing Dynamic Compliance at Asthma Patients with Ventilating Disorders after Berotec Inhalation [PDF]

arXiv, 2004
The purpose of research was to check up the influence of decrease of nonequality of ventilating (after bronchodilator (berotec) inhalation (BI)) on the magnitude of dynamic compliance of lungs (Cdyn) at asthma patients with ventilating infringements. Methods and materials: 20 patients (with 2 and 3 degrees of ventilating infringements (VC<73%, FEV1<51%,

A new role for exhaled nitric oxide as a functional marker of peripheral airway caliber changes: a theoretical study [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Though considered as an inflammation marker, exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) was shown to be sensitive to airway caliber changes to such an extent that it might be considered as a marker of them. It is thus important to understand how these changes and their localization mechanically affect the total NO flux penetrating the airway lumen (JawNO), hence FENO,
