Raised-Volume Forced Expiratory Flow-Volume Curve in Healthy Taiwanese Infants

Scientific Reports, 2017
The raised-volume rapid thoracoabdominal compression (RVRTC) manoeuvre has been applied to obtain full forced expiratory flow-volume curves in infants. No reference data are available for Asian populations.

Risk Prediction Models for Recurrence After Curative Treatment of Early‐Stage or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...

Forced expiratory flow‐volume relationships [PDF]

Anaesthesia, 1977
Forced expiratory flow-volume relationships have been used to investigate changes in lung mechanics caused by upper abdominal operations. The slope of the 'effort independent' portion of the flow-volume curve increases after operation, suggesting that restriction of respiratory movement is associated with an increase in lung recoil.
