Relations between expiratory reserve volume (ERV), closing (CV) as a percentage of vital capacity (CV/VC%), and pulmonary gas exchange have been investigated in the sitting supine postures eight severely obese subjects before after substantial weight loss. CV/VC% exceeded predicted values but did not change with posture or loss; increase could owing to smoking habits subjects. Arterial oxygen pressure (PaO<sub>2</sub>) was significantly less than improved loss six The reduction...
