Relationship between body composition, inflammation and lung function in overweight and obese asthma

Respiratory Research, 2012
Background The obese-asthma phenotype is not well defined. The aim of this study was to examine both mechanical and inflammatory influences, by comparing lung function with body composition and airway inflammation in overweight and obese asthma.

A comparison of pathological methods of measuring lung cancer volume. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1996
To determine which of several pathological methods of measuring lung cancer volume compared most favourably with the gold standard.Three pathological methods were used on 54 resected lung cancers: (1) measuring the maximum dimension and assuming a spherical shape; (2) measuring three dimensions and assuming an ellipsoidal shape; and (3) deriving the ...

Effect of nodule characteristics on variability of semiautomated volume measurements in pulmonary nodules detected in a lung cancer screening program.

Radiology, 2008
PURPOSE To retrospectively assess volume measurement variability in solid pulmonary nodules (volume, 15-500 mm(3)) detected at lung cancer screening and to quantify the independent effects of nodule morphology, size, and location.

Comparison of the effects of open and closed aspiration on end-expiratory lung volume in acute respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology
Background Alveoli tend to collapse in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Endotracheal aspiration may increase alveolar collapse due to the loss of end-expiratory lung volume (EELV).

Flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) improves regional ventilation in obese patients – a randomized controlled crossover trial

BMC Anesthesiology, 2020
Background In obese patients, high closing capacity and low functional residual capacity increase the risk for expiratory alveolar collapse. Constant expiratory flow, as provided by the new flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) mode, was shown to improve ...
