DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26373
Abstract: Diaphragm function may be impaired in children with sickle cell disease (SCD). We hypothesized that diaphragm function is related to performance and ventilation on the 6‐min walk test (6MWT). read more here.

DOI: 10.1159/000515335
Abstract: Background: In idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), some physiological parameters measured during a 6-min walk test (6-MWT) impart reliable prognostic information. Sit-to-stand tests (STSTs) are field exercise tests that are easier to implement than the 6-MWT… read more here.
