Relationship between alveolar nitric oxide concentration in exhaled air and small airway function in COPD.

abstract：:Concentrations of exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) may depend not only on biochemical or pathologic processes but also on physiological parameters. As breath sampling may be done in different body positions, effects of the sampling position on exhaled VOC concentrations were investigated by means of real-time...
