Impulse oscillometry in the diagnosis of obstructive ventilation disorders in pulmonary tuberculosis patients

open access: yesТуберкулез и болезни лёгких, 2019
Impulse oscillometry (IO) possesses certain advantages (being non-invasive and requiring no special breathing maneuvers) but fundamental differences from the well-known methods of external respiration function assessment make it difficult to introduce it

Blood Lactate as a Prognostic Biomarker for Survival and Weight Loss in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: An Exploratory–Validation Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Lactate is increasingly recognized as an energy substrate, but its relevance to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) remains unclear. We examined whether blood lactate is associated with survival and weight loss in ALS. Methods This retrospective study included an Australian exploratory cohort and a Japanese validation cohort with clinical ...

The Role of Impulse Oscillometry in Evaluating Disease Severity and Predicting the Airway Reversibility in Patients With Bronchiectasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundImpulse oscillometry (IOS) can be used to evaluate airway impedance in patients with obstructive airway diseases. Previous studies have demonstrated that IOS parameters differ between patients with bronchiectasis and healthy controls.

Fast cycle of vagus nerve stimulation is associated with increased sleep‐related breathing disorder in patients with epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This work was undertaken to study the association between vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) parameters and the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) measured by polysomnography in patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Methods Patients with epilepsy who underwent polysomnography with an active VNS device between 2018 and 2023 were retrospectively ...

Detection of focal impaired awareness seizures using a biometric shirt

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In recent years, seizure detection using wearable technology has gained significant attention in research. Most studies, however, have focused on detecting generalized or focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures. This study evaluates the feasibility of using a biometric shirt to detect focal impaired awareness seizures (FIAS) by ...

Practical measurement of body composition using bioelectrical impedance, air displacement plethysmography and ultrasound in stable outpatients with short bowel syndrome receiving home parenteral nutrition: comparison of agreement between the methods

open access: yesJournal of human nutrition and dietetics (Print), 2018
Background People diagnosed with intestinal failure (IF) as a result of short bowel syndrome are dependent on home parenteral nutrition (HPN). Measuring nutritional status is essential for monitoring treatment.

Vascular dysfunction in women with recurrent pregnancy loss: Possible association with antiphospholipid antibodies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 206-214, April 2025.
Abstract Objective Antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) are recognized to have a pivotal role in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and cardiovascular disease. Therefore, we assessed the vascular function of women with RPL and examined the association with each type of aPL.
