Pulmonary vascular volume is associated with DLCO and fibrotic score in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: an observational study

BMC Medical Imaging, 2021
Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a disease that primarily occurs in elderly individuals. However, it is difficult to diagnose and has a complex disease course.

Mechanisms of Exertional Dyspnea in Patients with Mild COPD and a Low Resting DLCO

COPD, 2021
Patients with mild chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lower resting diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) often report troublesome dyspnea during exercise although the mechanisms are not clear. We postulated that in such individuals,

Endoscopic lung volume reduction with endobronchial valves in very low DLCO patients: results from the German Registry – Lungenemphysemregister e.V.

ERJ Open Research, 2020
Background Endoscopic lung volume reduction (ELVR) with valves has been suggested to be the key strategy for patients with severe emphysema and concomitant low diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO).

The prognostic value of DLCO and pulmonary blood flow in patients with pulmonary hypertension

Pulmonary Circulation, 2019
Background Cardiac output is a prognostic marker in patients with pulmonary hypertension. Pulmonary blood flow as a surrogate for cardiac output can be measured non-invasively by inert gas rebreathing.

Reference equations for DLNO and DLCO in Mexican Hispanics: influence of altitude and race

BMJ Open Respiratory Research
Objectives This study aimed to evaluate pulmonary diffusing capacity for nitric oxide (DLNO) and pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) in Mexican Hispanics born and raised at 2240 m altitude (midlanders) compared with those born and ...

Preoperative DLco and FEV1 are correlated with postoperative pulmonary complications in patients after esophagectomy

Scientific Reports
Limited information is available regarding the association between preoperative lung function and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in patients with esophageal cancer who undergo esophagectomy. This is a retrospective cohort study.

DLCO: adjust for lung volume, standardised reporting and interpretation

European Respiratory Journal, 2017
D.C. Johnson proposed that an adjustment of the predicted value for the diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) based on the measured and predicted lung volume be included in the report of DLCO test results.

MYCOPHENOLATE MOFETIL TREATMENT REDUCES THE RISK OF TREATMENT ESCALATION DUE TO VASCULAR COMPLICATIONS IN LIMITED CUTANEOUS SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS: EMULATION OF A TARGET TRIAL FROM ITALIAN RHEUMATOLOGY SOCIETY SPRING REGISTRY

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon due to the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of the vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.
