Sarcoidosis is defined in terms of its histology and natural history. Emphasis is placed upon its insidious nature and potentially pronounced pathophysiological effects. The use of lung function studies as an index of disability in the three described phases is discussed. Though we have only found the disease coincidentally in aircraft accidents, stress is placed upon the need for careful monitoring of affected aircrew and the necessity for respiratory function tests.
结节病是根据其组织学和自然史来定义的。重点在于其隐匿性本质以及潜在的显著病理生理效应。文中讨论了将肺功能研究用作所描述的三个阶段中残疾指标的情况。尽管我们仅在飞机事故中偶然发现了这种疾病,但强调了对受影响机组人员进行仔细监测的必要性以及呼吸功能测试的必要性。
