Lung function encompasses airway flow, volumes and capacities, and oxygenation. The anatomic and physiologic continuity of the lungs with the heart and vessels intuitively suggests that impairments in any component of lung function may impact cardiovascular health.

20 lut 2023 · We read with great interest a recent report which shows virus-negative inflammatory cardiomyopathy benefits from immunosuppressive therapy even after long-term follow-up. 1 We noted prednisone, as the component of combination therapy may play a crucially cardioprotective role.
Pulmonary heart disease is a heterogeneous condition with its clinical, echocardiographic and hemodynamic manifestations varying in proportion to the ways in which abnormal lung function can affect the heart.
4 kwi 2015 · The function of the heart is to contract and pump oxygenated blood to the body and deoxygenated blood to the lungs. To achieve this goal, a normal human heart must beat regularly and continuously for one’s entire life. Heartbeats originate from the rhythmic pacing discharge from the sinoatrial (SA) node within the heart itself.
18 paź 2023 · Prednisone, a steroid drug used to treat inflammation, can cause heart palpitations (skipped, pounding, or racing heartbeats) as well as other cardiac side effects like bradycardia (slowed heartbeats), tachycardia (rapid heartbeats), and atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeats).
20 maj 2021 · Although the current study highlights the potential benefits of personalizing dose according to exacerbation phenotype, two important limitations are the composite primary end point of treatment failure and the open-label design.
26 kwi 2017 · Reversing the associated negative intrathoracic pressure swings by using noninvasive continuous positive airway pressure rapidly reverses acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema and improves survival. Additionally, in congestive heart failure, states increasing intrathoracic pressure may augment left ventricular ejection and improve cardiac output.
