Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum - Also a Lung Disease? The Respiratory Affection of Patients with Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
BACKGROUND:Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is an autosomal-recessive mineralisation disorder caused by loss of function mutations in the ABCC6 Gen. Histological findings and data of an autopsy of a PXE-patient suggest a possible pulmonal calcification. So

Pulmonary Outcomes in Children Born Extremely and Very Preterm at 11 Years of Age

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Background: There is increasing evidence of prematurity being a risk factor for long-term respiratory outcomes regardless the presence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).Aim: To assess the effect of prematurity on respiratory outcomes in children born ...

Comparison of lung diffusing capacity in young elite athletes and their counterparts

Pulmonology, 2018
Background The influence of exercise on the pulmonary function is controverse, some studies have reported no sports influence, while the others have found positive correlation.Aim To evaluate and compare the sports influence on pulmonary function ...

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 ...

Growth of the Solid-Electrolyte Interphase: Electron Diffusion versus Solvent Diffusion [PDF]

J. Power Sources 561 (2023) 232651, 2022
The solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) substantially influences the lifetime of lithium-ion batteries. Nevertheless, the transport mechanism responsible for the long-term growth of the SEI remains controversial. This study aims at discussing the characteristic time and state-of-charge dependence of SEI growth mediated by electron diffusion versus ...

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.

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.

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 ...
