Role of Antigen Type in Survival in Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis.

abstract：:In patients with congestive heart failure (CHF), a high prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing has been described. Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) is present in up to 40% of patients with CHF. During the last decade, the medical treatment has been substantially improved. This study was designed to analyze the progno...
