- Mechanisms of Exercise Limitation and Prevalence of Pulmonary Hypertension in Pulmonary Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis(2020) HEIDEN, Glaucia Itamaro; SOBRAL, Juliana Barbosa; FREITAS, Carolina Salim Goncalves; ALBUQUERQUE, Andre Luis Pereira de; SALGE, Joao Marcos; KAIRALLA, Ronaldo Adib; FERNANDES, Caio Julio Cesar dos Santos; CARVALHO, Carlos Roberto Ribeiro; SOUZA, Rogerio; BALDI, Bruno GuedesBACKGROUND: Pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (PLCH) determines reduced exercise capacity. The speculated mechanisms of exercise impairment in PLCH are ventilatory and cardiocirculatory limitations, including pulmonary hypertension (PH). RESEARCH QUESTION: What are the mechanisms of exercise limitation, the exercise capacity , and the prevalence of dynamic hyperinflation (DH) and PH in PLCH? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: In a cross-sectional study, patients with PLCH underwent an incremental treadmill cardiopulmonary exercise test with an evaluation of DH, pulmonary function tests, and transthoracic echocardiography. Those patients with lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (D-LCO) < 40% predicted and/or transthoracic echocardiogram with tricuspid regurgitation velocity > 2.5 m/s and/or with indirect PH signs underwent right heart catheterization. RESULTS: Thirty-five patients were included (68% women; mean age, 47 +/- 11 years). Ventilatory and cardiocirculatory limitations, impairment suggestive of PH, and impaired gas exchange occurred in 88%, 67%, 29%, and 88% of patients, respectively. The limitation was multifactorial in 71%, exercise capacity was reduced in 71%, and DH occurred in 68% of patients. FEV1 and D-LCO were 64 +/- 22% predicted and 56 +/- 21% predicted. Reduction in D-LCO, an obstructive pattern, and air trapping occurred in 80%, 77%, and 37% of patients. FEV1 and D-LCO were good predictors of exercise capacity. The prevalence of PH was 41%, predominantly with a precapillary pattern, and mean pulmonary artery pressure correlated best with FEV1 and tricuspid regurgitation velocity. INTERPRETATION: PH is frequent and exercise impairment is common and multifactorial in PLCH. The most prevalent mechanisms are ventilatory, cardiocirculatory, and suggestive of PH limitations.
- Improvements in the 6-Min Walk Test and Spirometry Following Thoracentesis for Symptomatic Pleural Effusions(2011) CARTAXO, Ana Maria; VARGAS, Francisco S.; SALGE, Joao Marcos; MARCONDES, Bianca F.; GENOFRE, Eduardo H.; ANTONANGELO, Leila; MARCHI, Evaldo; TEIXEIRA, Lisete R.Background: Impairment in pulmonary capacity due to pleural effusion compromises daily activity. Removal of fluid improves symptoms, but the impact, especially on exercise capacity, has not been determined. Methods: Twenty-five patients with unilateral pleural effusion documented by chest radiograph were included. The 6-min walk test, Borg modified dyspnea score, FVC, and FEV, were analyzed before and 48 h after the removal of large pleural effusions. Results: The mean fluid removed was 1,564 +/- 695 mL. After the procedure, values of FVC, FEV and 6-min walk distance increased (P<.001), whereas dyspnea decreased (P<.001). Statistical correlations (P<.001) between 6-min walk distance and FVC (r=0.725) and between 6-min walk distance and FEV, (r=0.661) were observed. Correlations also were observed between the deltas (prethoracentesis X postthoracentesis) of the 6-min walk test and the percentage of FVC (r=0.450) and of FEV, (r=0.472) divided by the volume of fluid removed (P<.05). Conclusion: In addition to the improvement in lung function after thoracentesis, the benefits of fluid removal are more evident in situations of exertion, allowing better readaptation of patients to routine activities.

A.; SALGE, J. M.; STELMACH, R.; CUKIER, A.- Exercise Performance and Dynamic Hyperinflation in Lymphangioleiomyomatosis(2012) BALDI, Bruno G.; ALBUQUERQUE, Andre L. P.; PIMENTA, Suzana P.; SALGE, Joao M.; KAIRALLA, Ronaldo A.; CARVALHO, Carlos R. R.Rationale: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is characterized by exercise performance impairment. Although airflow limitation is common, no previous studies have evaluated the prevalence and impact of dynamic hyperinflation (DH) in LAM. Objectives: To investigate the dynamic responses during maximal exercise and the prevalence, predictors, and repercussions of DH in LAM. Methods: Forty-two patients with LAM performed symptom-limited incremental cycle exercise and pulmonary functions tests (PFTs) and were compared with 10 age-matched healthy women. Dyspnea intensity, inspiratory capacity, oxygen saturation, and cardiac, metabolic, and respiratory variables were assessed during exercise. Patients with LAM also performed a 6-minute walk test (6MWT). Measurements and Main Results: Patients with LAM had higher baseline dyspnea, poorer quality of life, obstructive pattern, air trapping, and reduced diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide in PFTs. Although they had the same level of regular physical activity, their maximal exercise performance was reduced and was associated with ventilatory limitation, greater desaturation, and dyspnea. The prevalence of DH was high in LAM (55%), even in patients with mild spirometric abnormalities, and was correlated with airflow obstruction, air trapping, and diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide. Compared with the non-DH subgroup, the patients who developed DH had a ventilatory limitation contributing to exercise cessation on cycling and higher desaturation and dyspnea intensity during the 6MWT. Conclusions: Ventilatory limitation and gas exchange impairment are important causes of exercise limitation in LAM. DH is frequent in LAM, even in patients with mild spirometric abnormalities. DH was associated with the severity of disease, higher dyspnea, and lower oxygen saturation. In the 6MWT, desaturation and dyspnea were greater in patients with DH.
