متن کاملMorbidity and mortality associated with the restrictive spirometric pattern: a longitudinal study.
BACKGROUND Recent studies have suggested that a restrictive pattern assessed with a single spirometric test is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. This study was undertaken to determine demographic, clinical and mortality profiles of subjects with either a recurrent or an inconsistent restrictive spirometric pattern assessed prospectively. METHODS Data from 2048 adult participa...
متن کاملComment on: Morbidity and mortality associated with the restrictive spirometric pattern: a longitudinal study.
We read with interest the paper by Guerra et al profiling the demographic/clinical characteristics and prospectively assessing the prognosis of subjects with a restrictive spirometric pattern enrolled in the TESAOD population-based study. The manuscript has the merit of following up a large number of patients for 14 years and investigating how selected co-morbidities are relevant to survival. T...
متن کاملThe Correlation Between the Six Minute Walk Test and Spirometric Parameters in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Introduction: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease affect nearly every organ system. Pulmonary involvement, which is a common manifestation of SLE, can remain undiagnosed if asymptomatic. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of spirometric findings in early detection of silent pulmonary involvement and examine its correlation with the six minute walk test in SLE pa...
متن کاملSpirometric Parameters: Hemodialysis Compared to Peritoneal Dialysis
Introduction: Renal failure affects the mechanical and the ventilatory function of the lungs. A few studies have evaluated the ventilatory and pulmonary function in dialysis patients. The present study aimed to compare Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) results in patients undergoing Hemodialysis (HD) and Peritoneal Dialysis (PD). Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study on 50 pa...
