Exploring Benefits of Non‐Intubated Surgery for Lung Biopsy in Interstitial Lung Disease
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives General anaesthesia with intubation is the standard technique for video‐assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). However, non‐intubated VATS (NIVATS) is emerging as a less invasive alternative, particularly for lung biopsies in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and impaired respiratory function.

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

Risk Factors for Pneumothorax After Treatment With Endobronchial Valves: A Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Pneumothorax (PTX) is the most prevalent and serious adverse event associated with endobronchial valve (EBV) treatment in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with emphysema. This study aimed to compare preoperative characteristics and 30‐day outcomes in patients with COPD with and without PTX.

Born high, born fast: Does highland birth confer a pulmonary advantage for sea level endurance?
Abstract Less than 7% of the world's population live at an altitude above 1500 m. Yet, as many as 67% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic marathon, and 100% of medalists in the 2020 men's and women's Olympic 5000 m track race may have been born or raised above this otherwise rare threshold.

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...

Asthma is universally considered a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways. Several noninvasive markers, such as exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) and exhaled breath temperature (PletM), have been proposed to evaluate the degree of airway inflammation and

Background Selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) with embolization of branches of the hepatic artery is a valuable therapeutic tool for patients with hepatic malignancies; however, it is also associated with lung injury risk due to shunting ...

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