Summary
This study looked at 61 teenagers with pectus deformities (sunken or protruding chest) to see if measuring the thickness of their diaphragm with ultrasound could predict breathing problems before symptoms appear. Participants had their diaphragm measured and took breathing tests. The goal was to find an early warning sign for lung issues in these teens.
