The predictive value of respiratory function tests for non-invasive ventilation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

Respiratory Research, 2017
Background Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) improves survival and quality of life in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients. The timing of referral to a home ventilation service (HVS), which is in part based on respiratory function tests, has shown ...

A genome wide association study for lung function in the Korean population using an exome array [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 2021
Background/Aims Lung function is an objective indicator of diagnosis and prognosis of respiratory diseases. Many common genetic variants have been associated with lung function in multiple ethnic populations. We looked for coding variants associated with

Obtaining spirometric reference values when height is not available – comparison of alternative anthropometric measures

Pulmonology, 2020
Introduction: Height is one of the variables used to derive reference values for respiratory function but it is not always available. To fulfil this need, different formulas are described in literature.

Precise Pulmonary Function Evaluation and Management of a Patient With Freeman-Sheldon Syndrome Associated With Recurrent Pneumonia and Chronic Respiratory Insufficiency [PDF]

Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2020
Freeman-Sheldon syndrome (FSS) is a rare distal arthrogryposis syndrome. There are few reports on the respiratory insufficiency of FSS. Additionally, there is no detailed information on pulmonary functional evaluation. A 17-year-old male patient with FSS
