Serum methylarginines and spirometry-measured lung function in older adults [PDF]

, 2013
Rationale: Methylarginines are endogenous nitric oxide synthase inhibitors that have been implicated in animal models of lung disease but have not previously been examined for their association with spirometric measures of lung function in humans ...

A study of different predictors of successful weaning off mechanical ventilation in ventilated patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with acute respiratory failure

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2020
Background A lot of indices can be used as predictors of weaning off mechanical ventilation, such as rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI), integrative weaning index (IWI), vital capacity (VC), maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), and respiratory rate (RR).

Abdominal functional electrical stimulation to improve respiratory function after spinal cord injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2016
Objectives: Abdominal functional electrical stimulation (abdominal FES) is the application of a train of electrical pulses to the abdominal muscles, causing them to contract. Abdominal FES has been used as a neuroprosthesis to acutely augment respiratory

Smoking exposure, loss of forced expiratory volume in one second and the risk of lung cancer among patients with malignant disease who present with cardiac or pulmonary symptoms: a cross-sectional study

Tobacco Induced Diseases, 2017
Introduction Smokers with airway obstruction are at a higher risk of lung cancer than smokers without airway obstruction. Inflammation plays a key role in lung carcinogenesis.

Prognostic implications of physiologic and radiographic changes in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia [PDF]

, 2003
Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are a diverse group of lung diseases with varied prognoses. We hypothesized that changes in physiologic and radiographic parameters would predict survival.
