Pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide and nitric oxide after COVID‐19: A prospective cohort study (the SECURe study) [PDF]
Experimental PhysiologyMany patients exhibit persistently reduced pulmonary diffusing capacity after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). In this study, dual test gas diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide and nitric oxide (DL,CO,NO) metrics and their relationship to disease ...

Dual test gas pulmonary diffusing capacity in patients with idiopathic scoliosis 40 years after diagnosis [PDF]
Experimental PhysiologyThere is limited knowledge on diffusing capacity in scoliosis patients. It remains to be determined if impaired pulmonary diffusing capacity is mostly influenced by reduced alveolar–capillary membrane diffusing capacity (DM, CO), reduced pulmonary ...

Risk Factors Associated with Impairment in Pulmonary Diffusing Capacity among Patients with Noncystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis [PDF]
Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2022 This study aims to investigate the risk factors associated with impaired pulmonary diffusing capacity among patients with noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) and compare the predictive value of several scoring systems for the impairment in these ...

The need for race-specific reference equations for pulmonary diffusing capacity for nitric oxide [PDF]
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021 Background Few reference equations exist for healthy adults of various races for pulmonary diffusing capacity for nitric oxide (DLNO). The purpose of this study was to collect pilot data to demonstrate that race-specific reference equations are needed ...

Interpretable machine-learning model for Predicting the Convalescent COVID-19 patients with pulmonary diffusing capacity impairment [PDF]
BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, 2023 Introduction The COVID-19 patients in the convalescent stage noticeably have pulmonary diffusing capacity impairment (PDCI). The pulmonary diffusing capacity is a frequently-used indicator of the COVID-19 survivors’ prognosis of pulmonary function, but ...

TEMPORAL EFFECTS IN THE ESTIMATION OF PULMONARY DIFFUSING CAPACITY [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of Experimental Physiology and Cognate Medical Sciences, 1977 Steady state estimates of the pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLco) require measurement of the uptake and the average alveolar partial pressure of carbon monoxide (PACO). The expired alveolar sample obtained by different experimental methods and/ or breathing patterns rarely represents the actual PACO.

EFFECT OF ATROPINE ON PULMONARY DIFFUSING CAPACITY IN MAN
British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1964 Pulmonary diffusing capacity was measured in eighteen subjects on twenty-one occasions. On fourteen occasions, atropine was administered, and the DL three-quarters of an hour later fell significantly. Seven pairs of observations at intervals of three-quarters of an hour, without the intervening administration of atropine, showed no significant change ...
