In this randomized controlled trial, treatment with nerandomilast led to slower declines in forced vital capacity (FVC) in patients with progressive pulmonary fibrosis over 52 weeks 2. The occurrence ...

Objectives This multicentre study aimed to investigate the overall mortality of combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) and to compare CPFE-SSc characteristics ...

All patients had an FVC < 75% of the predicted normal value, a diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLCO) < 80% of the predicted normal value, and at least 10% fibrosis scarring in ...

The race neutral equations reclassified FEV 1 or FVC from normal to abnormal for 19.2% of Black persons in a large single center cohort study.

Normal FEV1/FVC Ratio and Normal FVC At first glance, a normal FEV1/FVC ratio and normal FVC might suggest you do not have a lung condition. In most cases, this would be correct. However, once-off ...

Results In individuals with normal BMI, overweight and obesity at baseline, moderate (0.25–1 kg/year) and high weight gain (>1 kg/year) during follow-up were associated with accelerated FVC and FEV1 ...

Compared with individuals with normal decline trajectories, more of those with rapid-decline FEV 1 /FVC trajectories self-reported increased smoking histories, asthma, inhaler use (including inhaled ...

The hazard ratio for all-cause mortality in PRISm with normal FVC was 1.25 vs 1.47 for PRISm with low FVC. Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is associated with an increased mortality risk, ...

The results of the Z -scores, transformed from the raw pulmonary ventilation function and lung diffusion function data, in the two groups are shown in Table 1. In the MMPP group, all the indexes were ...

What are pulmonary function tests? Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are tests that show how well your lungs are working. The tests measure lung volume, capacity, rates of flow, and gas exchange. This ...
