The Critical Role of Pulmonary Arterial Compliance in Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the American Thoracic Society, 2016
The normal pulmonary circulation is a low-pressure, high-compliance system. Pulmonary arterial compliance decreases in the presence of pulmonary hypertension because of increased extracellular matrix/collagen deposition in the pulmonary arteries. Loss of pulmonary arterial compliance has been consistently shown to be a predictor of increased mortality ...

Age, gender, and pulmonary diseases in compliance with pulmonary function testing [PDF]

open access: diamondMedicine Science
Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are critical tools for the diagnosis and monitoring of respiratory diseases. However, patient compliance with the test affects the reliability of the results. This study was designed to analyze factors such as age, gender,

The pulmonary resistance‐compliance relationship: Real or mathematical artifact? [PDF]

open access: goldPhysiological Reports
Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and arterial compliance (PAC) have been reported to share an inverse hyperbolic relationship, with their product—the pulmonary vascular time constant (τ)‐remaining more or less constant across disease states.

Lung Compliance and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesPulmonary Medicine, 2012
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, namely, pulmonary emphysema and chronic bronchitis, is a chronic inflammatory response of the airways to noxious particles or gases, with resulting pathological and pathophysiological changes in the lung.

Estimation of Regional Pulmonary Compliance in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Based On Personalized Lung Poromechanical Modeling.

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2022
Pulmonary function is tightly linked to the lung mechanical behavior, especially large deformation during breathing. Interstitial lung diseases, such as Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), have an impact on the pulmonary mechanics and consequently alter
