Diverse echocardiographic changes in the course of hypoxia due to acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

Only registered users can translate articles

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive parenchymal disease. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a potentially lethal complication in the course of IPF. In almost all cases of IPF-PH there is gradual deterioration, but patients can also decline suddenly due to hypoxia. This case report

24-Hour Hypoxia and Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND The quantification of hypoxia based on resting partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) may underestimate hypoxia related to activities of daily living or sleep and thus not accurately reflect pulmonary hypertension (PH). The aim of the present study was to investigate the association

Suboptimal erythropoietic response to hypoxemia in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic inflammatory process characterized by severe derangement of gas exchange in the advanced stages of disease. However, erythrocytosis is infrequent in IPF. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential relation between the blunted

Dysregulated expression of hypoxia-inducible factors augments myofibroblasts differentiation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an age-related, progressive and lethal disease, whose pathogenesis is associated with fibroblasts/myofibroblasts foci that produce excessive extracellular matrix accumulation in lung parenchyma. Hypoxia has been described as a determinant factor

Effects of hypoxia and hyperoxia on the differential expression of VEGF-A isoforms and receptors in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF).

Only registered users can translate articles

Dysregulation of VEGF-A bioavailability has been implicated in the development of lung injury/fibrosis, exemplified by Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF). VEGF-A is a target of the hypoxic response via its translational regulation by HIF-1α. The role of hypoxia and hyperoxia in the development and

A comparative study of the role of erythropoietin in the pathogenesis of deficient erythropoiesis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis as opposed to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Despite the severe derangement of gas exchange in the advanced stages of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), secondary erythrocytosis is either absent or much lower than is seen in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with comparable hypoxemia. This study investigates the

Respiratory bronchiolitis associated with severe dyspnea, exertional hypoxemia, and clubbing.

Respiratory bronchiolitis-associated interstitial lung disease (RBILD) is a distinct clinicopathologic disease described almost exclusively in cigarette smokers.(1) (2) The disease usually presents with mild symptoms and is associated with a good prognosis. (2) Severe lung dysfunction has not been

[Exertional hypoxemia evaluated by pulse oximetry in patients with interstitial lung diseases].

Only registered users can translate articles

The pattern of change in arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) measured by pulse oximetry (PO) during exercise, including daily activities, was studied in 23 patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), 19 of whom had idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, 3 collagen vascular disease, and 1 BOOP.

Respiratory muscle strength and gas exchange in neuromuscular diseases: comparison with chronic pulmonary emphysema and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

To examine whether or not the respiratory muscle weakness is correlated with decrease in arterial oxygen tension (PaO2), respiratory muscle and pulmonary functions in 14 patients with neuromuscular diseases (NMD) were studied and compared with those of 12 patients with chronic pulmonary emphysema

Noninvasive estimation of clinically asymptomatic pulmonary hypertension in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of pulmonary hypertension in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) by noninvasive methods. METHODS Twenty seven patients with IPF attending the Chest Clinic over a period of one-and-a-half-years underwent echocardiography for evidence of pulmonary

Effect of ambulatory oxygen on exertional dyspnea in IPF patients without resting hypoxemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The effects of ambulatory oxygen for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients without resting hypoxemia have not been elucidated. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of ambulatory oxygen on dyspnea in IPF patients without resting hypoxemia but with desaturation on
