Question: Is daily physical activity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease mainly associated with dynamic hyperinflation?
Answer: Daily physical activity of patients with COPD is mainly associated with dynamic hyperinflation, regardless of severity classification.
yes

Question: Is terlipressin more effective in decreasing variceal pressure than portal pressure in cirrhotic patients?
Answer: Our results demonstrate that terlipressin produces significant and prolonged decreases in variceal pressure and variceal wall tension and has intrinsic effects on portal pressure and systemic hemodynamics. Variceal pressure provides a better assessment of the effects of terlipressin administration on esophageal varices than hepatic venous pressure gradient.
yes

Question: Does serum sodium based modification of the MELD improve prediction of outcome in acute liver failure?
Answer: We validated the prognostic value of MELD-Na and UKELD in ALF. Classic MELD score calculations performed superior to KCC in the prediction of NSR. Serum Na and Na-based modifications of MELD did not further improve its prognostic value.

no
