Changes in transcutaneous oxygen tension during exercise in pulmonary emphysema.
Continuous measurements of transcutaneous oxygen tension (tcPO2) were made in 23 patients with radiological evidence of emphysema, at rest and during a maximal progressive exercise test. tcPO2 during the final phase of exercise was compared with tcPO2 at rest; the mean change (exercising minus resting value) in tcPO2 (delta tcPO2) was -0.8 mm Hg (SD 10.5, range -18 to +25) (-0.1 kPa (SD 1.4, ra...

The book's only general defect is the uneven quality, which is probably inevitable when editors must wring finished manuscripts from a large number of contributors who have a variety of other pressing professional concerns.

متن کاملPersistent diffuse pulmonary interstitial emphysema mimicking pulmonary emphysema.
A 69-year-old male non-smoker with a history of atopic asthma presented with symptoms suggestive of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and this appeared to be corroborated by lung function testing and a chest radiograph. However, a chest CT showed no evidence of pulmonary emphysema and instead demonstrated free air along the bronchovascular sheaths indicative of pulmonary interstistial emphy...
