Blood gas analysis before and after treatment: contrast of oxygen partial pressure, a, alveolar-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference (b). The oxygen partial pressure in arterial blood gas (a) was improved before and after 6 months of treatment, and the difference was statistically significant. Seventeen patients were followed up after 12 months and 16 patients completed blood gas analysis, the oxygen partial pressure at 12 months was also improved compared with that before treatment, and the difference was statistically significant. Alveolar-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference (b) was also improved before and after 6 months of treatment, and the difference was statistically significant. Seventeen patients were followed up after 12 months and 16 patients completed blood gas analysis, the difference of alveolar-arterial oxygen partial pressure at 12 months was also improved compared with that before treatment, with no significant difference
