In 2020, the Journal published a Medicine and Society article, "Hidden in Plain Sight 鈥 Reconsidering the Use of Race Correction in Clinical Algorithms," which was inspired by the authors' observations during their time as medical students.1 They asserted that as our understanding of race has...

Automated analysis and interpretation of spirograms is provided to assess lung function of a subject. If the shape of a spirogram plot is deemed suitably reliable, the spirogram may be subsequently used for diagnostic purposes. Quality control of spirograms and/or interpretation of reliable spiro...
Lung function at different stages of life, including reference values - JE - 1975 () Citation Context ...d MEADE [14] technique. In males, normal predicted values were taken from CRAPO et al. [15] for FEV1 and VC, CRAPO et al. [16] for total lung capacity (TLC) and residual ...
Expiration of air from fully inflated lungs and measurement of the volume over time can, in a cooperative patient who makes a maximal effort, provide a great deal of information on lung function. The authors discuss how to choose the best equipment, interpret test results, and differentiate ...
We then proceed in the opposite direction, searching for the best score in the test record or the best preserved function until the information in the assessment record is exhausted. Finally, we reexplore the noted syndromes by evaluating the actual behavior of the patient on individual tests or...
Whenever possible, symptoms are supported and ob- jectified by measuring clinical parameters such as blood pressure, oxygen saturation and lung function tests. How- ever, no standard criteria for the definition of a positive challenge outcome exist and the interpretation of food challenges mainly ...
SnapATAC2, ArchR and SCALE had the next highest overall scores, but were significantly less effective than scAGDE on datasets with more than 20,000 cells, such as the DropBlood, Lung and Liver datasets. Methods like BAVARIA, PeakVI, and SAILER generally had lower performance than SCALE, espec...

The different types of respiratory monitoring assess different stages of the respiration process. During normal respiration, oxygen molecules enter into the lungs and get absorbed into the alveoli through the peripheral lung capillaries. This is how oxygen enters into the arterial blood, and each oxyge...
