Percutaneous closure of PFO in patients with reduced oxygen saturation at rest and during exercise : short- and long-term results [PDF]
Background. A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a rare cause of hypoxemia and clinical symptoms of dyspnea. Due to a right-to-left shunt, desaturated blood enters the systemic circulation in a subset of patients resulting in dyspnea and a subsequent ...

Clinical predictors of lung function in patients recovering from mild COVID-19
Background Few studies have assessed lung function in Hispanic subjects recovering from mild COVID-19. Therefore, we examined the prevalence of impaired pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) as defined by values below the lower limit of

Participation of the miR-22-HDAC4-DLCO Axis in Patients with COPD by Tobacco and Biomass
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by airflow limitation and systemic inflammation. The main causes of COPD include interaction between genetic and environmental factors associated with tobacco smoking (COPD-TS) and/or exposure

The inspiratory capacity/total lung capacity ratio as a predictor of survival in an emphysematous phenotype of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. [PDF]
BackgroundForced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) grades severity of COPD and predicts survival. We hypothesize that the inspiratory capacity/total lung capacity (IC/TLC) ratio, a sensitive measure of static lung hyperinflation, may have a ...
