The effect of tiotropium on the pulmonary diffusing capacity

open access: yes, 2007
To our knowledge, there is no data oil the effect of tiotropium on pulmonary gas exchange in healthy subjects. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of tiotropium on pulmonary diffusing capacity.

Longitudinal decline in pulmonary diffusing capacity among nitrate fertilizer workers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: This study is part of a 3-year follow-up of lung function among nitrate fertilizer production workers. Aims: To study the possible adverse effects of occupational exposure to aerosols and gases on pulmonary diffusing capacity.

Discordance Between Patient and Physician Global Assessments in Early Systemic Sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study aims to identify factors associated with patient global assessment (PtGA) and physician global assessment (PhGA) and discordance between them in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods Data from adults with early SSc (<5 years) from the Collaborative National Quality and Efficacy Registry were included.

Pulmonary diffusing capacity and capillary blood volume in aging dogs

open access: yes, 1975
Single-breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DLco), pulmonary capillary blood volume (Vc), and membrane diffusing capacity (Dm) were measured in 24 beagle dogs aged 289–3,882 days. DLco and Vc were a function of age and alveolar volume (Va).

Immunosuppressive Drug Use in Limited Systemic Sclerosis: An International Survey

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Current guidelines recommend immunosuppressive treatment for diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis but are less clear on their use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) in the absence of internal organ complications. We conducted an international survey to understand current immunosuppressive drug prescribing patterns in lcSSc ...

Comparative analysis of pulmonary function in diverse ethnic adults living at low and high altitudes

open access: yesRespiratory Research
Background High-altitude hypoxia poses substantial physiological challenges due to reduced atmospheric pressure and oxygen availability. While chronic exposure may induce compensatory adaptations in lung function, these responses likely vary by altitude ...

The Gut–Heart Axis in Systemic Sclerosis: Evidence From a Large Prospective Early Disease Cohort

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement significantly impacts prognosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc), highlighting the need for early risk stratification. Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms are common and often manifest early. Emerging data suggest a link between GI and cardiac manifestations, possibly through shared mechanisms like dysautonomia.

Distinct Systemic Sclerosis Phenotypes Related to Ethnicity: An Opportunity to Personalize Care?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objective is to describe and compare demographic, clinical, and serological characteristics of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) according to ethnic background. Methods Participants enrolled in the Canadian Scleroderma Research Group cohort who self‐identified to a single ethnicity group were included.

Relationship of pulmonary arterial and venous pressure to diffusing capacity

open access: yes, 1964
Single-breath carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (DlCO) was determined in ten isolated perfused cat lungs at 37 C during a) forward (arterial) perfusion through the pulmonary artery and b) reverse (venous) perfusion through the left atrium.
