@entity1 @entity82 @entity26 @entity3794 @entity1030 @entity401
Clinical symptoms, radiological finding and functional results of @entity1 with @entity401 were followed in a dispensary about 10 years. We compared the progress of 10 @entity1 with @entity3794 histologically proved and of 19 @entity1 without any previous evidence of @entity82 but suspicious of developing @entity82 at present. In both groups we found a rising proportion of @entity1 suffering from dyspnoe on exertion and from increasing impairment. Functionally a significant decrease of the vital capacity was found especially in @entity1 with @entity82 . The course of @entity26 tension during physical exercise on a bicycle ergometer was well correlated to the dyspnoe on exertion. An @entity1030 already existing at the start of the observation period was found to have an unfavourable influence on the progress of the @entity401 . Eight @entity1 being suspicious of a developing @entity82 were investigated clinically. On 5 @entity1 a @entity3794 could be confirmed. A treatment using corticoids was started. To find a progression of a known @entity401 in due time, it is necessary to check thoroughly these @entity1 functionally and radiologically in a dispensary at regular intervals.
