Retrospective information on PFTs (spirometry [volumes and flows], 6-minute walking test [6MWT], and DLCO) was retrieved from patients' medical charts, including baseline information for all patients, and follow-up information for the LTx. At baseline, most patients presented with spirometric and...
Abstract:Advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a significant cause of morbidity. Treatment options beyond conventional medical therapies are limited to a minority of patients. Lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) although effective in selected subgroups of patients is not commonly under...
14% of patients had died at 5 years(69). Survivors more frequently had Jo-1 positivity and arthritis. Patients who died had a significantly lower baseline FVC and more patients that could not perform DLCO due to severity of disease.
A 20-year-old male patient who worked as a salesman was referred to the Department of Chest Diseases due to opacities seen in the upper zones of both lungs on the posteroanterior chest radiography taken for screening in the tuberculosis control dispensary. The patient had no complaint, and th...

This coincided with a profound hypertensive response peaking at systolic blood pressure 252mmHg (Figure 1 - right). The test was ceased due to dyspnea and generalized fatigue. This case demonstrates that while maximal oxygen consumption is a prognostic marker, an above average exercise capacity does...
The tests includes serum BNP, %DLCO and %VC/%DLCO by pulmonary function test, thermography of hand with cold stress, resting tricuspid regurgitation pressure gradient (rest TRPG), maximum TRPG and mPpa-Q estimated by DE with Master's two-step stress. Then, the expressed genes in peripheral ...
