IMPROVEMENT OF DIAPHRAGMATIC EXCURSION IN THE SUPINE POSITION IN A PATIENT WITH IDIOPATHIC PLEUROPARENCHYMAL FIBROELASTOSIS: A CASE REPORT

Improvement of diaphragmatic excursion in the supine position in a patient with idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis: A case report

uma sound lantern Idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (iPPFE) is a rare form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia.We report a case of a patient with iPPFE in whom postural changes improved diaphragmatic excursion (DE) and exercise tolerance.Chest radiography showed a greater elevation of the diaphragm at maximum expiration in the supine pos

On a deterministic mathematical model which efficiently predicts the protective effect of a plant extract mixture in cirrhotic rats

In this work, we propose a mathematical model that describes liver evolution and concentrations of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in a group of rats damaged with carbon tetrachloride.Carbon tetrachloride was employed to induce cirrhosis.A second groups damaged with carbon tetrachloride was exposed simultaneously a plant ext
