“…According to previous findings weight affects the normal respiratory pressures values as compared to other anthropometric parameters. (28) Among male gender FEV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC have significant correlation (P< 0.05) with age and weight while no significant correlation (P> 0.05) with height and BMI. VC and PEF do not show any significant correlation with age, weight, height and BMI among male gender.…”

“…But several investigators reported that these values significantly improved in post dialysis period than pre dialysis period in those patients who received 6 months maintenance hemodialysis. [22][23][24] In this study,all patients had abnormal lung functions before dialysis. In addition, 34(85%) and 23(57.5%) patients had both restrictive and obstructive disorders before and after hemodialysis session respectively.…”

“…Several investigators have suggested different mechanisms for pulmonary involvement in this specific group of patients. [23][24][25] Research evidence has shown that decrement of ventilatory variables in CKD stage-V patients may be due to pulmonary oedema, pulmonary fibrosis and calcification, pleural effusion, intravascular and interstitial volume overload, pulmonary hypertension, decrease respiratory muscle strength, anemia, uremic toxins, electrolyte disorders and/or acid base imbalance. 10,18 These abnormalities have been demonstrated to improve or resolve after hemodialysis.…”

“…Pulmonary disorders like pulmonary edema, pleural effusion, acute respiratory distress syndrome, increased pulmonary capillary permeability, pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary calcification, pulmonary hypertension, hemosiderosis, pleural fibrosis, obstructive apnea, muscle myopathy, and low respiratory muscle strength are observed among these patients (10)(11)(12)(13). They might be directly due to uremic toxins or indirectly because of anemia, immune suppression, extra calcification, malnutrition, electrolyte disorders, acid-base imbalance, and volume over-load (9,(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”
