PRISm is identified when the FEV1/FVC ratio remains ≥0.7 after bronchodilation, but FEV1 is below 80% of the predicted value. This condition is often seen in people at risk for COPD, such as ...

Sleeve gastrectomy also significantly improves respiratory function and physical activity of individuals with obesity, as ...

Individuals with impaired lung function trajectories experience a higher burden of respiratory symptoms, including wheeze and ...

This model indicated that a patient with a lower MMEF% pred, higher FEV1/FVC ratio, FVC% pred and normal BMI would be more likely to be diagnosed with CVA. We did not complete the external ...

Background: Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) commonly coexists with connective tissue diseases (CTD), such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the risk factors contributing to the ...

Following use of race-neutral lung function equations, African American and Latino pediatric patients with asthma had reductions in FEV1 and FVC while white patients with asthma had increases, ...

Around 20% to 25% of individuals with rapidly declining FEV 1 /FVC trajectories experienced wheezing and usual phlegm/bronchitis as adolescents/young adults, according to results published in The ...

1 Overall, mean ± SD of FVC was 41.6 ± 31.0%, FEV1 was 42.0 ± 30.0%, and FEV1/FVC was 95.8 ± 18.3%. Spirometry parameters varied among the 3 institutions, as follows. 1 Other parameters were ...

The SSA evaluates it under Listing 3.02 – Chronic Respiratory Disorders, which requires pulmonary function tests (FEV1, FVC, DLCO) and evidence of severe impairment. Pulmonary Function Tests ...
