We measured lung volume and lung mechanics in offspring at 7 days, 21 days, and 7 weeks PI, and in mice exposed to arsenic only in adulthood.
We simultaneously measured lung volume, Q̇, DLCO, membrane diffusing capacity, and VC using a noninvasive rebreathing technique in type 2 diabetic patients from rest to heavy exercise.
A paired t – test was conducted to determine if the measured lung volume (e.g. residual lung volume in hydrostatic weighing and the thoracic gas volume in ADP) significantly deviated from its respective estimated lung volumes.

To our knowledge, the present study is the first that measured lung volumes, which are important data for the diagnosis of restrictive defect and lung hyperinflation [ 27, 47].
However, it would be interesting to determine, in a complementary study, how reproducible the measurement is, and how this method of determining FRC compares to other techniques for absolute lung volume measurements as well as with techniques that measures lung volume changes.
This protocol was conducted as computed tomography (CT) was being performed to measure lung volume changes.
Because of the same reason, we could not directly measure lung volume.
In addition, due to technical limitations, we did not directly measure lung volume (with inductive plethysmography or magnetometers), nor did we measure lung compliance, and thus one could argue that the loss of lung volume induced by endotracheal suctioning is somewhat speculative.
Baseline ventilatory and hemodynamic parameters were collected before the protocol to measure lung volumes.
We did not measure lung volumes.
Quantitative bedside techniques that are able to measure lung volumes together with trans-pulmonary pressure could expand our chances to tailor mechanical ventilation in ARDS patients.
