Nitric Oxide in Asthma Is Like Insulin in Type II Diabeteshe airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) in asthma. In non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (type II diabetes), there is compelling evidence that the fundamental cause of the glucose intolerance results from decreased sensitivity to insulin [1]. The theory presented in this chapter is that the fundame

Static and Dynamic Hyperinflation in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseasey. A growing body of evidence suggests that lung hyperinflation contributes importantly to dyspnoea and activity limitation in COPD and, moreover, is an important independent risk factor for mortality in this population. Therefore, it is not surprising that lung hyperinflation has become an importan

Lung Recruitment and De-recruitments exchange, i.e., oxygenation of blood and removal of carbon dioxide (CO.) from the blood. Blood flow through an airless lung causes shunt, i.e., flow of blood that is not oxygenated and cannot eliminate CO., resulting in hypoxemia and CO. retention. De-recruitment can be seen in almost all patients

Forced Oscillation Technique on applying a low-amplitude pressure oscillation to the airway opening and computing respiratory impedance defined as the complex ratio of oscillatory pressure and flow. Impedance data are interpreted in terms of mechanical models of the respiratory system. Common clinical applications of FOT inclu

Respiratory Muscle Blood Flow Measured by Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) and Indocyanine Green Dyulation during exercise. Accordingly, the advantage of performing actual muscle blood flow measurements is that it provides an insight into the “blood flow competition” theory, based on which it is proposed that the respiratory muscles compete with the locomotor muscles for the available blood flow.

Assessment of Dyspnoea. This definition underlines the importance of the different qualities covered by the term dyspnoea, the involvement of integration of multiple sources of neural information about breathing and the physiological consequences. Instruments or subsections of instruments pertaining to dyspnoea should be

Noninvasive Measures of Lung Structure and Ventilation Heterogeneity the mouth. After having a subject inhale a well-characterized amount of gas or aerosol in a well-controlled breathing maneuver, the expired gas or aerosol trace can be analyzed to represent critical structural and functional features of the lung. One such feature is the asymmetry of the lung, both
