AIMS (1) To determine the predominant pulmonary function abnormality in our population of obese children; and (2) to assess the correlation between the severity of lung function impairment and the degree of obesity as assessed by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DEXA). METHODS Sixty four obese patients underwent physical examination, standardised pulmonary function tests (spirometry, lung vo...
Aims: (1) To determine the predominant pulmonary function abnormality in our population of obese children; and (2) to assess the correlation between the severity of lung function impairment and the degree of obesity as assessed by dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DEXA).

UNLABELLED The severity of chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) is defined by the degree of flow limitation measured as forced expiratory volume in 1 s, which mainly reflects impairment of large and intermediate airways. However, COPD is primarily a small airways disease. Therefore, better diagnostic tools are needed. Ventilation-Perfusion (V/P) SPECT is a sensitive method to detect obstruct...
background: occupational exposure to excessive level of copper results in many adverse health effects. objective: to measure pulmonary function, oxidative stress, and extent of dna damage in workers of a copper processing industry. methods: 30 men working in a copper processing industry and 30 men matched for age and socioeconomic status (comparison group) were included in this study. pulmonary...
Spirometry is regarded as the primary tool for the evaluation of lung function in lung transplant (LTx) recipients. Spirometry is crucial in detecting the various phenotypes of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), including restrictive allograft syndrome (RAS) and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) - note that these phenotypes potentially have different etiologies and therapies. Foll...
We hypothesized that patients with chronic renal failure may present nonspecific bronchial hyperreactivity due to subclinical interstitial lung oedema. To assess lung function disturbances and methacholine (MTH) bronchial responsiveness in this condition, we studied 12 patients (9 men and 3 women; 41.8 +/- 13.3 yrs (SD] with chronic renal failure undergoing regular haemodialysis (HD). Before HD...
BACKGROUND Impairment of lung function was reported to be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of the present study is to evaluate the relationship between lung function and carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT) in participants without chronic pulmonary disease. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS A total of 6,423 participants aged 40 years and above were recruited from Jiadin...
BACKGROUND In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), functional and structural impairment of lung function can negatively impact heart rate variability (HRV); however, it is unknown if static lung volumes and lung diffusion capacity negatively impacts HRV responses. We investigated whether impairment of static lung volumes and lung diffusion capacity could be related to HRV indices in pa...
BACKGROUND Tracking longitudinal measurements of growth and decline in lung function in patients with persistent childhood asthma may reveal links between asthma and subsequent chronic airflow obstruction. METHODS We classified children with asthma according to four characteristic patterns of lung-function growth and decline on the basis of graphs showing forced expiratory volume in 1 second ...
Systemic inflammation is associated with reduced lung function in obese individuals. Whether aerobic training in obese subjects is associated with improvement in systemic inflammation and lung function is unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a 12 week aerobic training on C- reactive protein and lung function in obese men. Materials and Methods: Twenty-three obese subj...
