AB  - The  major  classes  of  lung  diseases  include  obstructive  lung  diseases  (e.g.,  asthma,  chronic  obstructive  pulmonary  disease,  and  bronchiectasis),  restrictive  lung  diseases  (e.g.,  interstitial  lung  diseases,  chest  wall  abnormalities,  and  neuromuscular  diseases),  and  vascular  abnormalities  (e.g.,  pulmonary  thromboembolism,  pulmonary  arterial  hypertension,  and  pulmonary  veno-occlusive  disease).  The  respiratory  system  includes  not  only  the  lungs  but  also  the  chest  wall,  pulmonary  circulation,  and  central  nervous  system.  There  are  three  key  types  of  respiratory  system  physiologic  disturbances  that  occur  in  varying  combinations  in  different  lung  diseases:  ventilatory  function,  pulmonary  circulation,  and  gas  exchange.
