Prediction and forecasting models based on patient's history and biomarkers with application to Scleroderma disease [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
This paper aims at predicting lung function values based on patients historical lung function values and serum biomarkers in Scleroderma patients. The progression of disease is measured by three lung function indexes (FVC, TLC, DLCO). Values of four biomarkers (TIMP1, P3NP, HA, NT-proBNP) are available.

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

Pulmonary Circulation, 2019
BackgroundCardiac 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. We hypothesized that pulmonary blood flow can predict outcome in patients with pulmonary hypertension.MethodsFrom January 2009 to January 2012, we ...

Diffusing capacity as an independent predictor of acute exacerbations in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Scientific Reports
A weak correlation between diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) and emphysema has been reported. This study investigated whether impaired DLCO in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with increased risk of acute

Relations between vital capacity, CO diffusion capacity and computed tomographic findings of former asbestos-exposed patients: a cross-sectional study

Journal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, 2020
Background Asbestos-related lung diseases are one of the leading diagnoses of the recognized occupational diseases in Germany, both in terms of their number and their socio-economic costs. The aim of this study was to determine whether pulmonary function

Anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies associated interstitial pneumonia: A possible new clinical entity

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
In a study of 101 idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) and interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features (IPAF) patients, 21 (20.8%) were ANCA‐positive. ANCA+ patients had higher rates of NSIP, bronchiectasis, arthralgias, and elevated CRP, with 43% of p‐ANCA+ patients progressing to systemic vasculitis (SV) within 12 months (OR 26.3, p < .0001 ...

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.
