CD4 T Lymphocyte-mediated lung disease: steady state between pathological and tolerogenic immune reactions.

abstract：:Patients with impaired pulmonary function are at increased risk for the development of postoperative complications. Recently exercise testing and predicted postoperative (ppo) function have gained increasing importance in the evaluation of lung resection candidates.
