Introduction and ObjectivesTo investigate the clinical value of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in lung cancer patients.Methods A total of 172 healthy control subjects and 164 patients with histopathologically confirmed lung cancer were enrolled in this study. The FeNO measurements and pulmonary function tests were conducted in the Chinese PLA General Hospital. The recorded data included FeNO, the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), the forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC, the FEV1 (% predicted), the demographic characteristics, the presence of complications and the smoking status.Results The patients with lung cancer had a significantly higher level of eNO than the healthy control subjects (33.8515.63 ppb, n=163; 16.83 +/- 4.17 ppb, n=172; P
