Reduced Lung Function and Progression to Prediabetes: A Prospective Study
Objective: Prediabetes is a state that people have blood glucose levels higher than normal but still not in diabetes range. There is a close relationship between impaired lung function and diabetes mellitus (DM). Reduced lung function can be present before the clinical evidence of diabetes or insulin resistance. Materials and Methods: The total number of subjects in this longitudinal study was ...
متن کاملSerum Methylarginines and Spirometry-Measured Lung Function in Older Adults
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. OBJECTIVES This study measured serum concentrations of asymmetric and symmetric dimethylarginine in a representative sample of older community-dwell...
متن کاملSpirometry quality in adults with very severe lung function impairment.
BACKGROUND Some technologists worry that patients with very severe lung disease are unable to complete several spirometry maneuvers, which require considerable effort. METHODS We retrospectively selected all spirometry tests with an FEV1 < 35% predicted done by adult subjects sent to our pulmonary function laboratory during a 3-y period. We determined the rates and correlates of poor quality ...
متن کاملDiabetes mellitus and lung function.
OBJECTIVES To assess the nature of pulmonary dysfunction in type 1 diabetes and the relationship of pulmonary function tests to diabetic factors and complication. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Sixteen type 1 diabetic patients and 26 control subjects matched for age and sex were studied. We performed spirometry measurements and measured pulmonary diffusing capacity (DL(CO)) in sitting and supine positi...
متن کاملPreoperative Prediction of Lung Function in Pneumonectomy by Spirometry and Lung Perfusion Scintigraphy
INTRODUCTION Nowadays an increasing number of lung resections are being done because of the rising prevalence of lung cancer that occurs mainly in patients with limited lung function, what is caused by common etiologic factor - smoking cigarettes. Loss of lung tissue in such patients can worsen much the postoperative pulmonary function. So it is necessary to asses the postoperative pulmonary fu...
