On the respiratory mechanics measured by forced oscillation technique in patients with systemic sclerosis.
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary complications are the most common cause of death and morbidity in systemic sclerosis (SSc). The forced oscillation technique (FOT) offers a simple and detailed approach to investigate the mechanical properties of the respiratory system. We hypothesized that SSc may introduce ch...
