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

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
