Prediction Equations for Pulmonary Diffusing Capacity for Nitric Oxide in Healthy African-American Adults [PDF]

, 2017
Pulmonary diffusing capacity for nitric oxide (DLNO) is a relatively new pulmonary function test to assess gas transfer in the lung. To date, there are no prediction equations made for healthy adult African-American (black) subjects. Thus, the purpose of

Variability in pulmonary diffusing capacity in heart failure [PDF]

, 2020
As pulmonary diffusing capacity is related to mortality risk and prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF), it is measured frequently. As such, it would be essential to know the week-to-week variability (reproducibility) of pulmonary diffusing ...

Excessive gas exchange impairment during exercise in a subject with a history of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and high altitude pulmonary edema [PDF]

, 2007
A 27-year-old male subject (V(O2 max)), 92% predicted) with a history of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and a clinically documented case of high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) was examined at rest and during exercise.

Persistent dyspnea after COVID-19 is not related to cardiopulmonary impairment; a cross-sectional study of persistently dyspneic COVID-19, non-dyspneic COVID-19 and controls

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Up to 53% of individuals who had mild COVID-19 experience symptoms for >3-month following infection (Long-CoV). Dyspnea is reported in 60% of Long-CoV cases and may be secondary to impaired exercise capacity (VO2peak) as a result of ...

Inflammation associated with lung function abnormalities in COVID-19 survivors

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023
Background Activation of inflammatory pathways promotes organ dysfunction in COVID-19. Currently, there are reports describing lung function abnormalities in COVID-19 survivors; however, the biological mechanisms remain unknown. The aim of this study was

Effects of exercise on thoracic blood volumes, lung fluid accumulation, and pulmonary diffusing capacity in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol, 2020
Patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) experience symptoms of exertional dyspnea that may be related to lung fluid accumulation during exercise.

Pulmonary complications after lung resection in the absence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: The predictive role of diffusing capacity [PDF]

, 2009
ObjectiveDiffusing capacity is not routinely used in assessing risk of lung resection, perhaps owing to uncertainty as to whether patients with normal spirometric results require additional evaluation.

Relationships between pulmonary function test parameters and quantitative computed tomography measurements of emphysema in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Acta Medica Lituanica, 2018
Objective. CT is able to precisely define the pathological process in COPD. There are a number of previous articles discussing the distribution of emphysema and its connection with pulmonary function tests.
