Filter by:This is a randomized controlled human exposure crossover study. Investigators aim to investigate the acute health effects of ozone exposure in healthy young adults.
The capnodynamic method non-invasively calculates effective lung volume (ELV) continuously during surgery. In this study ELV is compared to functionalresidual capacity (FRC) measured with Nitrogen Multiple Breath Wash out (NMBW) at 0 and 5 cm H2O Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) in patients scheduled for neck surgery at the Karolinska University Hospital, Solna, Sweden.
This study aims to evaluate whether dietary supplementation with fish oil can protect against the cardiopulmonary alterations linked to air pollution
In a randomized clinical trial (RCT) published in JAMA, the investigators have provided evidence that vitamin C supplementation (500 mg daily during pregnancy) ameliorates the effects of maternal smoking during pregnancy on offspring lung function and subsequent incidence of wheeze by 48% through 1 year of age. The investigators are currently completing a second RCT of vitamin C supplementation in pregnant smokers with more robust measures of pulmonary outcomes. The purpose of this ECHO application is to combine these 2 focused, interventional cohorts to allow critical longitudinal follow-up of respiratory outcomes in these children including the study of pulmonary function test (PFT) trajectories and incidence of recurrent wheeze/asthma from infancy through early adolescence in offspring of pregnant smokers randomized to vitamin C versus placebo.
The overall aims of this protocol are to determine whether prenatal supplementation with vitamin C to pregnant smokers can improve pulmonary function and decrease wheeze at 5 years of age in their offspring. This is a continuation of the VCSIP trial, to follow the offspring through 5 years of age. The hypothesis for this protocol is an extension of the VCSIP trial that supplemental vitamin C in pregnant smokers can significantly improve their children's PFTs and decrease the incidence of wheeze.
Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), a disease characterized by diffuse cystic changes in the lung, is a rare disorder that affects almost exclusively women. The main objectives of this study are to accurately evaluate the prevalence of LAM, the status of disease, the diagnosis and treatment, the quality of care, and the health related outcomes in China.
Particulate matter(PM) exposure has been shown to increase the morbidity and mobility of a variety of respiratory diseases, including COPD and asthma. This study focus on the effects of PM on the pulmonary function and acute exacerbation of COPD and asthma patients in China, where PM exposure is much heavier than the United States and European countries.
To investigate the protective effect of calcium dobesilate, Xuefuzhuyu Decoction, calcium dobesilate combined with Xuefuzhuyu Decoction on the early lung function of type 2 diabetes mellitus
The purpose of the study is to better understand the health, including lung health, of Veterans who deployed in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), or Operation New Dawn (OND) and other deployments following these Operations.
This study aimed to evaluate whether a short-term indoor air purifier intervention improves cardiopulmonary health based on a randomized double-blind crossover trial
