Pulmonary diffusing capacity in chronic dialysis patients [PDF]
Patients with end-stage renal disease treated by hemodialysis with bioincompatible membranes are exposed during the dialysis period to acute effects on lung microcirculation, which may result in pulmonary fibrosis and diffusion defects in long-standing ...

Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with inflammatory rheumatic disorders (IRDs). High‐resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is widely considered the gold standard for the noninvasive assessment of ILD; however, its interpretation is constrained by substantial interobserver variability and the ...

Pulmonary transit time and diffusing capacity in mammals
Allometry is used as a tool to explain the apparent mismatch of oxygen consumption and diffusing capacity in the mammalian lung. By combining equations for pulmonary capillary volume and cardiac output, it is apparent that erythrocyte transit time ...

A dynamically actuated reconfigurable topographical surface (DARTS) integrates contact‐mediated bactericidal nanotopography with programmable mechanical actuation to actively disrupt bacterial biofilms. Dynamic surface reconfiguration enhances bacterial killing and suppresses implant‐associated infections in vivo, providing a new strategy for active ...

Association between within breath diffusing capacity (DcoWB), pulmonary blood flow, and workload.
Generalized estimating equations were used to create linear regressions representing each association. A: Pulmonary blood flow increase with workload is not significantly different between the flight attendants with abnormal or normal diffusing capacity ...

Schematic illustration of the engineered RN@FDT for multimodal tumor therapy. a) Fabrication of FD&DOX/TFA‐loaded RGD‐NNV (RN@FDT) and the light‐triggered disassemble of RN@FDT. b) After internalized by tumor cells, RN@FDT are disintegrated under NIR‐II laser irradiation to boost PTT and induce cell apoptosis.

Heritability and genome-wide association study of diffusing capacity of the lung
Although several genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have investigated the genetics of pulmonary ventilatory function, little is known about the genetic factors that influence gas exchange.

Comparison of lung diffusing capacity in young elite athletes and their counterparts
Background: The influence of exercise on the pulmonary function is controverse, some studies have reported no sports influence, while the others have found positive correlation.
