Using quantitative breath sound measurements to predict lung function following resection
BACKGROUND Predicting postoperative lung function is important for estimating the risk of complications and long-term disability after pulmonary resection. We investigated the capability of vibration response imaging (VRI) as an alternative to lung scintigraphy for prediction of postoperative lung function in patients with intrathoracic malignancies. METHODS Eighty-five patients with intratho...
متن کاملThoracoscore fails to predict complications following elective lung resection.
The Thoracoscore mortality risk model has been incorporated into the British Thoracic Society guidelines on the radical management of patients with lung cancer. The discriminative and predictive ability to predict mortality and post-operative pulmonary complications (PPCs) in this group of patients is uncertain. A prospective observational study was carried out on all patients following lung re...

متن کاملQuantitative Structure-Property Relationship to Predict Quantum Properties of Monocarboxylic Acids By using Topological Indices
Abstract. Topological indices are the numerical value associated with chemical constitution purporting for correlation of chemical structure with various physical properties, chemical reactivity or biological activity. Graph theory is a delightful playground for the exploration of proof techniques in Discrete Mathematics and its results have applications in many areas of sciences. A graph is a ...
