Individuals with early-onset COPD and rapidly progressive pre-COPD frequently have a decades-long history of impaired ...

Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is associated with an increased mortality risk, researchers reported in the ...

The value of office spirometry for "tracking" purposes shall be determined by calculating the short-term coefficient of repeatability of FEV 1 for the subset of patients who performed repeat tests.

Discover how COPD and preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) findings accelerate frailty progression, based on a ...

Study shows muscle-to-fat ratio impacts lung function and airflow obstruction risk in adults, emphasising the importance of ...

Researchers have discovered that single-phase CT scans along with clinical data can achieve accuracy equivalent to dual-phase ...

Methods: Cardiorespiratory fitness was measured by a maximal treadmill test (MTT), and respiratory function was tested by spirometry. The cross sectional study included data ... Men who remained ...

A paired t test showed no difference between unsupervised and supervised home spirometry self-testing. The variability of FVC (4.1%), FEV1 (3.7%), peak expiratory flow (7.9%), and other ...
