Heavy upright exercise increases ventilation-perfusion mismatch in the basal lung: indirect evidence for interstitial pulmonary edema

Ventilation-perfusion (V̇a/Q̇) mismatch during exercise may result from interstitial pulmonary edema if increased pulmonary vascular pressure causes fluid efflux into the interstitium. If present, the increased fluid may compress small airways or blood vessels, disrupting V̇a/Q̇ matching, but this i...
