Bronchial nitric oxide flux and alveolar nitric oxide concentration after exposure to hyperoxia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-10-01)The fraction of nitric oxide in exhaled gas (FENO) is reduced by 30-70% after exposure to partial pressures of oxygen (Po2) of 200-240 kPa for 90 min. The purpose of this study was to partition FENO into its flow-independent ... -
Differences in lung function, bronchial hyperresponsiveness and respiratory health between elite athletes competing in different sports
