Association between Low Forced Vital Capacity and High Pneumonia Mortality, and Impact of Muscle Power

Association between Low Forced Vital Capacity and High Pneumonia Mortality, and Impact of Muscle Power

Impaired % predicted value forced vital capacity (% FVC) is related to higher all-cause mortality in aged adults, and strong muscle force may improve this relationship. A muscle disease, sarcopenia, causes higher mortality. We aimed to identify the unknown disease that relates impaired % FVC with hi...
