There is limited knowledge on diffusing capacity in scoliosis patients. It remains to be determined if impaired pulmonary mostly influenced by reduced alveolar-capillary membrane (DM, CO), capillary blood volume (VC) or both. This study aims report findings from dual test gas for carbon monoxide and nitric oxide (DL, CO, NO) with quantification of corrected haemoglobin a five s breath-hold COc, 5s) NO, 5s), DM, CO VC. The included 57 patients idiopathic seen at our department 1972 1983, all...
Abstract Background Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is usually considered the gold standard for assessing maximal oxygen consumption (V̇O 2max ), a health and performance marker in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Despite widespread application of CPET, absolute relative test‐retest reliability CPET‐derived metrics remains unexamined. Objective To examine compare CPET derived individuals COPD healthy matched controls. Methods 12 age‐ sex‐matched controls...
High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has shown to improve exercise capacity, symptom burden, and quality of life in COPD patients, but it remains be investigated if HIIT can counteract limb muscle dysfunction. Therefore, we examined the impact a 12-week supervised protocol on oxygen conductance. Eight patients with mild moderate eight age-, sex- BMI-matched controls underwent intervention. Leg blood flow (Q̇ leg ) arterio-venous samples were collected at rest during active single-leg knee...
Abstract D LCO/NO , the combined single‐breath measurement of diffusing capacity to carbon monoxide ( LCO ) and nitric oxide LNO measured either during exercise or in resting supine position may be a useful physiological measure alveolar–capillary reserve. In present study, we investigated between‐day test–retest reliability ‐based metrics. Twenty healthy volunteers (10 males, 10 females; mean age 25 (SD 2) years) were randomized repeated measurements upright rest followed by n = 11) 9). The...
