2. Exhaled nitric oxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaled_nitric_oxide

   Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous molecule produced by certain cell types in an inflammatory response. The fraction of exhaled NO (FE NO) is a promising biomarker for the diagnosis, follow-up and as a guide to therapy in adults and children with asthma. The breath test has recently become available in many well-equipped hospitals in developed ...

3. Asthma-COPD overlap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma-COPD_overlap

   Asthma-Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Overlap (ACO), also known as Asthma-COPD Overlap Syndrome (ACOS), is a chronic inflammatory, obstructive airway disease in which features of both asthma and COPD predominate. Asthma and COPD were once thought of as distinct entities; however, in some, there are clinical features of both asthma ...

   Nitric oxide (nitrogen monoxide) is a molecule and chemical compound with chemical formula of N O. In mammals including humans, nitric oxide is a signaling molecule involved in several physiological and pathological processes. [ 1 ] It is a powerful vasodilator with a half-life of a few seconds in the blood.

6. Asthma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma

   Inflammation in the lungs can be estimated by the level of exhaled nitric oxide. [234] [235] The use of exhaled nitric oxide levels (FeNO) to guide asthma medication dosing may have small benefits for preventing asthma attacks but the potential benefits are not strong enough for this approach to be universally recommended as a method to guide ...

7. Minute ventilation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_ventilation

   Minute ventilation (or respiratory minute volume or minute volume) is the volume of gas inhaled (inhaled minute volume) or exhaled (exhaled minute volume) from a person's lungs per minute. It is an important parameter in respiratory medicine due to its relationship with blood carbon dioxide levels. It can be measured with devices such as a ...
