Exhaled nitric oxide in interstitial lung diseases
Highlights • We measure exhaled NO levels in patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonias. • Patients have higher levels of exhaled NO than healthy controls. • Alveolar concentration of NO is inversely correlated with lung function parameters. • Alveolar concentration of NO could be a potential...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • We measure exhaled NO levels in patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonias. • Patients have higher levels of exhaled NO than healthy controls. • Alveolar concentration of NO is inversely correlated with lung function parameters. • Alveolar concentration of NO could be a potential biomarker of disease severity. |
