CORRELATION OF RESPIRATOR DIAL “COMPLIANCE” WITH MEASURED LUNG COMPLIANCE [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1977
In clinical practice, lung compliance is often inferred from pressure and volume readings on the respirator dials. These estimates differ from measured lung compliance (CL) in that both pressure and volume are diminished by gas compression, flexing of the tubing and any leaks.

Fighting time: A qualitative analysis on the impact of lung transplantation in adults with Cystic Fibrosis [PDF]

, 2001
During the last decade lung transplantation has become an option for those with end-stage respiratory disease, including Cystic Fibrosis. However, there appears to have been very little written about the experiences of those who are on the lung ...

Discordance Between Patient and Physician Global Assessments in Early Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aims to identify factors associated with patient global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PhGA) and discordance between them in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Data from adults with early SSc (<5 years) from the Collaborative National Quality and Efficacy Registry were included.

Tacrolimus and cyclosporine have differential effects on the risk of development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome: results of a prospective, randomized international trial in lung transplantation.

, 2012
Chronic lung allograft dysfunction, which manifests as bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), is recognized as the primary cause of morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation.

Oscillatory respiratory impedance and lung tissue compliance [PDF]

, 1994
The respiratory impedance was measured by means of the forced oscillation technique (Landser et al.) and the lung tissue compliance was measured with an oesophageal balloon in 30 patients with a wide range of values of lung tissue compliance.

Immunosuppressive Drug Use in Limited Systemic Sclerosis: An International Survey

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Current guidelines recommend immunosuppressive treatment for diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis but are less clear on their use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) in the absence of internal organ complications. We conducted an international survey to understand current immunosuppressive drug prescribing patterns in lcSSc ...

The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.

Distinct Systemic Sclerosis Phenotypes Related to Ethnicity: An Opportunity to Personalize Care?

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective is to describe and compare demographic, clinical, and serological characteristics of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) according to ethnic background. Methods Participants enrolled in the Canadian Scleroderma Research Group cohort who self‐identified to a single ethnicity group were included.

Antenatal Endotoxin Impairs Lung Mechanics and Increases Sensitivity to Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury in Newborn Rat Pups

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021
Perinatal inflammation due to chorioamnionitis and ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) at birth is independent risk factors for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We have previously shown that antenatal endotoxin (ETX) causes abnormal
