I think smoking generally is thought to reduce DLCO, but I don't have the reference cited here, so I can't check it. YaacovCR (talk) 20:20, 10 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Possible case for combining this page with TLCO? As pointed out in the Diffusion capacity page, DLCO and TLCO are different names given to the same test. Tommysalts (talk) 13:51, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do any particular numbers mean anything specific?

[edit]

100% of expected value, but what are the ranges of expected values? A sentence like "A healthy adult might expect X, while a baby might have Y" could be useful.

Do we know anything about other values? For example, the minimum sufficient value to support human life independently? JoshNarins (talk) 06:38, 8 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
