Clinical Characteristics (n = 100).
<p>*Mean ± SD.</p>†<p>Multiple symptoms may be present.</p
Top Panel: R<sub>5−20</sub> at baseline and during voluntary inflation.
<p>Data are mean ± SE. Dotted line represents the upper limit of normal. Bottom Panel: Individual values obtained during voluntary inflation are plotted as a function of the absolute EELV at which it was obtained. EELV is expressed as % predicted FRC. Data are shown for 50/71 patients in whom maneuvers were acceptable for analysis. Dotted line represents the upper limit of normal. (• = baseline ○ = voluntary inflation).</p
Top Panel: R<sub>20</sub> at baseline and during voluntary inflation.
<p>Data are mean ± SE. Dotted line represents the upper limit of normal. Bottom Panel: Individual values for specific conductance at 20 Hz (SG<sub>rs</sub> @ 20 Hz) plotted as a function of the absolute EELV at which it was obtained. EELV is expressed as % predicted FRC. Dotted and solid lines represent the mean ±1.65 SD calculated from data obtained in normal subjects. (• = baseline ○ = voluntary inflation).</p
Individual values for R<sub>20</sub>, R<sub>5−20</sub>, and X<sub>5</sub> are related to ERV.
<p>Dotted line represents the upper limit of normal for each parameter.</p
Effect of bronchodilator administration on R<sub>5−20</sub> at baseline and during voluntary inflation to predicted FRC.
<p>Data are mean ± SE. Dotted line represents the upper limit of normal. (• = baseline ○ = voluntary inflation).</p
Cardiac Output, Stroke volume and Cardiac Index and Cardiac Output normalized for increasing body size based on allometric consideration (CO/kg<sup>0.75</sup>) for individual subjects (n = 24) are plotted against D<sub>M</sub>/V<sub>C</sub> in 4 panels.
<p>Cardiac Output, Stroke volume and Cardiac Index and Cardiac Output normalized for increasing body size based on allometric consideration (CO/kg<sup>0.75</sup>) for individual subjects (n = 24) are plotted against D<sub>M</sub>/V<sub>C</sub> in 4 panels.</p
Individual values for resistance (R<sub>5</sub>) and respiratory system elastance (X<sub>5</sub>) obtained at baseline FRC are related to V<sub>C</sub>.
<p>The dashed lines indicate the limits of normal for each parameter.</p
Pulmonary artery distensibility is plotted against V<sub>C</sub> for individual subjects (n = 24).
<p>Data are presented per unit alveolar volume.</p
