(1) This prediction was tested and confirmed using the GAW IV IDDM data set.
(2) Measurements of thoracic gas volume (TGV), airway resistance (Raw), and airway conductance (Gaw) were calculated in a group of 42 normal infants using a whole-body plethysmograph.
(3) In patients without such disease, a significant correlation between inspiratory airway conductance (Gaw) and AHI (r = -0.47; p less than 0.05) was also present, while percent predicted FRC and Gaw did not correlate with normalized weight.
(4) In each infant, Rn was subtracted from Raw (n) in order to assess resistance, and its reciprocal, conductance (Gaw), during mouth breathing.
(5) The Gaw-TGV curve was approximately linear around the resting lung volume.
(6) An independent series of 80 multiplex families (GAW 5) was also studied.
(7) In this study, Gaw-TGV curves were compared with sGaw in 30 healthy and 20 asthmatic subjects who were studied by body plethysmography.
(8) But looking at every level, there is fantastic work being done.” ‘Leadership is key to making any change a success’ Alistair Gaw, president, Social Work Scotland Facebook Twitter Pinterest Alistair Gaw On World Social Work Day last year, Scotland launched the Vision and Strategy for Scottish Social Services for “a socially just Scotland with excellent social services delivered by a skilled and valued workforce which works with others to empower, support and protect people, with a focus on prevention, early intervention and enablement”.
(9) Measurement of airway conductance (Gaw) in 6 subjects demonstrated prevention of acute reductions in Gaw at low lung volumes (25% VC) in 4 out of 6 subjects.
(10) An approximate correction for this volume dependence can be obtained by calculating specific airway conductance (sGaw = Gaw-TGV).
(11) Follow-up angiograms were carried out in six patients after palliative renal artery embolisation for hypernephromas using a GAW-spiral.
(12) Changes in thoracic gas volume (TGV) as an estimate of pulmonary hyperinflation and changes in airway conductance (Gaw) as an estimate of bronchial obstruction were assessed by whole-body plethysmography.
(13) Airway conductance and FEV1 were measured in 25 patients before and after bronchodilator: Following bronchodilator, the correlation coefficient, r, between Gaw and FEV1 increased from 0.58 to 0.70 while there was almost negligible correlation (r = 0.1) between the respective Gaw and FEV1 changes.
(14) Men with symptoms (chest tightness, coughing, and wheezing) after exposure showed decreases of forced expiratory volumes (FEV(1.0)), flow rates on maximum expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curves, and of vital capacity (VC), while airway conductance (Gaw: TGV ratio) did not decrease significantly ("flow rate response").
(15) Gaw, TGV and sGaw were measured five times at three to five different lung volumes.
(16) A strong linear relationship was found to exist between Gaw (m) and TGV throughout the first year of life (r = 0.92), with no significant difference between Negro and Caucasian infants.
(17) We wondered if the inverse changes in airway conductance (Gaw) and functional residual capacity (FRC) during histamine (H) and acetylcholine (ACH) challenge are interrelated or occur at random.
(18) conductance (GAW), FEV1.0 and residual volume (RV) were also determined for comparison.
(19) A correlation could be established between MI and RV on the one hand and between FEV1.0 or GAW and RV on the other hand.
(20) We interpret the increased exp and insp Gaw to indicate isoproterenol deposition within and bronchodilatation of larger central airways (trachea, main stem, lobar, segmental).
