Forced vital capacity (FVC), peaked expiratory flow rate (PEFR), are additional parameters in the assessment of the reversibility test.

Journal of the Faculty of Medicine Baghdad, 2018
Background: Spirometry is an important test performed in patients expect to have airway obstruction, assessment of intense reaction to inhalers (the trial of reversibility of airway blockade) is a normally utilized technique in clinical and academic studies.

Real‐World Experience With Multimodal Treatment of Resectable Stage II–III Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Single Institutional Analysis

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neoadjuvant therapy has recently become an integral component of multimodal treatment for resectable lung cancer. However, real‐world data on perioperative morbidity and treatment adherence remain limited. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and safety of different neoadjuvant treatment approaches applied within daily clinical routine ...

System‐Local Axes and Metabolic Reprogramming From Health to Response in House Dust Mite‐Specific Subcutaneous Immunotherapy for Allergic Rhinitis

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
This study delineated nasal‐plasma metabolic reprogramming in house dust mite‐allergic rhinitis (HDM‐AR) and subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) response, showing compartment‐specific signatures dominated by nasal lipid‐redox and plasma nucleotide‐NAD+ axes and across the HC–HDM‐AR–SCIT response continuum, dual‑compartment metabolites exhibited ...

Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Visual Patterns of Diaphragmatic Motion in Acute Respiratory Failure: A Prospective Pilot Study

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 421-428, March/April 2025.
In this prospective bicentric study, we studied the relationship between the appearance of diaphragmatic motion and the etiological diagnosis of patients admitted to the emergency department with ARF. We observed a different visual pattern in patients with pneumonia. This is an interesting result as it allows the diagnosis of pneumonia without the need

Forced expiratory volume and expiratory flow rate in Black miners and in a control group.

South African medical journal = Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir geneeskunde, 1976
The peak expiratory flow rate and the forced expiratory volume and 1 second were measured in 772 Black miners who did not have pneumoconiosis, tuberculosis or chronic bronchitis. The same tests were done in 164 non-mining workers. It was found that exposure to dust associated with the miners' work had no effect on the results of these tests.
