Apparent pulmonary diffusing capacity for CO at varying alveolar O2 tensions.

Journal of applied physiology, 1957
The apparent pulmonary diffusing capacity for CO (Dl) has been measured at alveolar O2 tensions from 40 to more than 600 mm Hg.

Pulmonary diffusing capacity in chronic renal failure

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1981
Reduced carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLCO) is a frequent and often isolated pulmonary physiological abnormality in patients with chronic renal failure. In 20 patients with chronic renal failure who had normal spirometry (FEV1 and FVC greater than 80% of predicted) and near normal chest roentgenograms (three had mild cardiomegaly), the DLCO was ...

Pulmonary diffusing capacity after maximal exercise

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1993
To determine the effect of maximal exercise on alveolocapillary membrane diffusing capacity (Dm), 12 professional handball players aged 23.4 +/- 3.3 (SD) yr were studied before and during early recovery from a progressive maximal exercise [immediately (t0), 15 min, and 30 min (t30) after exercise]. Lung capillary blood volume and Dm were determined in

Smoking and pulmonary diffusing capacity.

Scandinavian journal of respiratory diseases, 1975
The pulmonary diffusing capacity (DLCO SB) and its two components, the capillary blood volume (Vc) and the diffusing capacity of the membrane (DMCO), expressed in absolute values and per litre of alveolar volume (VA'), were measured at rest and on exercise in healthy male smokers and nonsmokers of similar age and height, and with identical values for ...

The effect of salbutamol on pulmonary diffusing capacity

Respiratory function technologists/scient., 2019
Background: In the last few years an increase in obstructive airway diseases has been reported. Studies showing the effect of bronchodilation in the alveolar-capillary diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide (DLCO) have been rare, and with different conclusions.

Pulmonary Diffusing Capacity in Left Ventricular Dysfunction

Chest, 1990
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are any consistent spirometric or Dsb findings in patients with LV dysfunction characterized by a clinical diagnosis of CHF and an EF less than 40 percent. We performed spirometry and Dsb in 34 patients, and found that EF correlated only with Dsb.

Effect of physical training on anatomical R-L shunt at rest and pulmonary diffusing capacity during near-maximal exercise in boys 11-13 years old.

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1973
Anatomical R-L shunt at rest and the pulmonary diffusing capacity during near-maximal exercise were studied in 9 boys aged 11 to 13 years before and after a 16-week period of systematic physical training.

Effect of uneven ventilation on pulmonary diffusing capacity

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1961
In four normal subjects measurements of steady state diffusing capacity for CO (DLCO) by an alveolar sample technique and of the degree of uneven ventilation by nitrogen washout were made simultaneously followed by measurement of DLCO by rebreathing. A methacholine-histamine aerosol was then given.
