Exhaled breath compositions under varying respiratory rhythms reflects ventilatory variations: translating breathomics towards respiratory medicine.

ABSTRACT: Control of breathing is automatic and its regulation is keen to autonomic functions. Therefore, involuntary and voluntary nervous regulation of breathing affects ventilatory variations, which has profound potential to address expanding challenges in contemporary pulmonology. Nonetheless, the fundamental attributes of the aforementioned phenomena are rarely understood and/or investigated. Implementation of unconventional approach like breathomics may leads to a better comprehension of those complexities in respiratory medicine. We applied breath-resolved spirometry and capnometry, non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring along with continuous trace analysis of exhaled VOCs (volatile organic compounds) by means of real-time mass-spectrometry in 25 young and healthy adult humans to investigate any
