Asthma exacerbations are associated with subsequent deficits in lung function. Here, we tested the hypothesis that a specific pattern of inflammatory responses during acute exacerbations may be ...

The guideline-recommended FEV1:FVC value of less than 0.70 is the optimal cutoff for the diagnosis of clinically significant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), researchers say. The study, ...

Spirometry test There is significant disparity in the ratios for postbronchodilator FEV1/FEV6 and FEV1/FVC %, and this disparity is very pronounced in women. Disclosure: One study author declared ...

—Older age, presence of scoliosis, and other factors were associated with lower predicted forced vital capacity in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy using non-invasive ventilation. Individuals ...

Better lung function, expressed as higher forced vital capacity (FVC), is associated with a reduced risk for the onset of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke over a follow-up period of approximately ...
