Hospital admission for COVID-19 pneumonitis – long-term impairment in quality of life and lung function

European Clinical Respiratory Journal, 2022
Background and Aim Knowledge of long-term consequences of severe COVID-19 pneumonitis is of outmost importance. Our aim was, therefore, to assess the long-term impact on quality of life and lung function in adults hospitalized with severe COVID-19 ...

The effects of lung volume reduction treatment on diffusing capacity and gas exchange

European Respiratory Review, 2020
Lung volume reduction (LVR) treatment in patients with severe emphysema has been shown to have a positive effect on hyperinflation, expiratory flow, exercise capacity and quality of life.

Heterogeneous pattern of differences in respiratory parameters between elderly with either good or poor FEV1

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2018
Background The relationship of spirometric values to other respiratory and functional parameters in advanced age is not well studied. We assessed this relationship in elderly subjects with either good or poor spirometric parameters to reveal whether ...

Mechanisms of gas transfer impairment utilizing nitric oxide following severe COVID‐19 pneumonitis

Physiological Reports, 2023
Reduced carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLCO) is common after recovery from severe COVID‐19 pneumonitis. The extent to which this relates to alveolar membrane dysfunction as opposed to vascular injury is uncertain.

Reference equations for pulmonary diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide and nitric oxide in adult Caucasians

European Respiratory Journal, 2018
The aim of this study was to determine reference equations for the combined measurement of diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (CO) and nitric oxide (NO) (DLCONO). In addition, we wanted to appeal for consensus regarding methodology of the

Diffusion of myosin V on microtubules [PDF]

, 2011
Organelle transport in eukaryotes employs both microtubule and actin tracks to deliver cargo effectively to their destinations, but the question of how the two systems cooperate is still largely unanswered.

Heritability and genome-wide association study of diffusing capacity of the lung

European Respiratory Journal, 2018
Although several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have investigated the genetics of pulmonary ventilatory function, little is known about the genetic factors that influence gas exchange.
