Increased alveolar nitric oxide concentration and high levels of leukotriene B(4) and 8‐isoprostane in exhaled breath condensate in patients with asbestosis

BACKGROUND: Inhaled asbestos fibres can cause inflammation and fibrosis in the lungs called asbestosis. However, there are no non‐invasive means to assess and follow the severity of the inflammation. Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) measured at multiple exhalation flow rates can be used to assess the alveo...
