متن کاملStatins and Pulmonary Hypertension in Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) is a chronic multisystem disease with a considerable burden. One of its most common complications is pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH). It has been demonstrated that the development of PAH is correlated with decreased quality of life and survival. Different medications have been proposed for the treatment of PAH, among which one can name statins. Howeve...
متن کاملDetermination of distribution of diffusing capacity in relation to blood flow in the human lung.
A method for appraising the distribution of diffusing capacity of the lungs (D(L)) in relationship to pulmonary capillary blood flow ([unk]Q(C)) in normal human subjects was derived from measurements of oxygen diffusing capacity (D(LO2)) and carbon monoxide diffusing capacity (D(LCO)) performed during breath holding. This method utilizes the fact that the observed D(LO2) is considerably reduced...
متن کاملPulmonary Diffusing Capacity in Mitral Valve Disease.
While the pulmonary diffusing capacity is now accepted as an important test of lung function, comparatively little application of the test has been made in patients suffering from cardiac disorders. Bates, Boucot, and Dormer (1955) were the first to describe a simple and reliable means for estimating gaseous diffusion, using the steady state carbon monoxide technique. MacNamara, Prime, and Sinc...
متن کاملMeasurement variability in single-breath diffusing capacity of the lung.
STUDY OBJECTIVES The single-breath diffusing capacity of the lung (DLCO) is a commonly performed pulmonary function test. The current American Thoracic Society (ATS) recommendations for reproducibility of DLCO measurements suggest that two measurements for the DLCO agree within 10% or 3 mL/min/mm Hg of the average value. The European Respiratory Society (ERS) recommends that two measurements sh...
