AimsThe objective of this study was to establish the acute effects of hypoxia on clinical, spirometric, haemodynamic, and echocardiographic variables. Reducing inspired oxygen to 15%, as experienced during commercial air travel, decreases arterial ox...

Background Most individuals with lung cancer have symptoms for several months before presenting to their GP. Earlier consulting may improve survival. Aim To evaluate whether a theory-based primary care intervention increased timely consulting of indi...
