Association of lung diffusion capacity with cardiac remodeling and risk of heart failure: The Framingham heart study.
<h4>Background</h4>Lung function abnormalities are ubiquitous in heart failure (HF). It is unclear, however, if abnormal lung diffusion capacity is associated with cardiac remodeling and antedates HF. We hypothesized that lower lung diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) is associ...
