Respiratory muscles in internal medicine
Monaldi Arch Chest Dis.
1999 Dec.
Abstract
This review provides evidence that respiratory muscle abnormalities are present in many illnesses of internal medicine and emphasizes that clinicians should look for respiratory muscle weakness in many circumstances, particularly immunological disorders. Controversial results in hormonal diseases, metabolic diseases and abdominal disorders indicate areas for further research.
