Oxygen Therapy in Chronic Respiratory Failure [PDF]

BMJ, 1973
In hypercapnic chronic respiratory failure red cell volume correlates with the arterial oxygen tension during the quiescent phase of the disease. During an acute exacerbation measurement of the red cell volume can give a reasonable index of the arterial oxygen tension existing in the previous quiescent state.

Potential Early Risk Biomarkers for Reduced Forced Expiratory Volume in Children Post‐Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We sought to identify potential early risk biomarkers for lung disease in children post‐allogeneic HCT. Patients with pulmonary function tests 3 months post‐transplant and plasma samples between days 7 and 14 post‐HCT were included. Six of 27 subjects enrolled had reduced forced expiratory volume 1 (FEV1) z scores.
