  2. Restrictive lung disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictive_lung_disease

    Restrictive lung diseases are a category of extrapulmonary, pleural, or parenchymal respiratory diseases that restrict lung expansion, [2] resulting in a decreased lung volume, an increased work of breathing, and inadequate ventilation and/or oxygenation. Pulmonary function test demonstrates a decrease in the forced vital capacity.

    Age-standardised disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rates from respiratory diseases by country (per 100,000 inhabitants). Restrictive lung diseases are a category of respiratory disease characterized by a loss of lung compliance, causing incomplete lung expansion and increased lung stiffness, such as in infants with respiratory distress ...

  6. Pulmonary fibrosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulmonary_fibrosis

    Such scar tissue causes an irreversible decrease in oxygen diffusion capacity, and the resulting stiffness or decreased compliance makes pulmonary fibrosis a restrictive lung disease. [14] Pulmonary fibrosis is perpetuated by aberrant wound healing, rather than chronic inflammation. [15] It is the main cause of restrictive lung disease that is ...

  7. Extrapulmonary restriction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrapulmonary_restriction

    Extrapulmonary restriction is a type of restrictive lung disease, indicated by decreased alveolar ventilation with accompanying hypercapnia. It is characterized as an inhibition to the drive to breathe, or an ineffective restoration of the drive to breathe. [1]
