Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disorder that is estimated to involve the skeletal muscles in up to 50% of patients. There is little information on the relationship among respiratory muscle strength, lung volumes, and the degree of dyspnea in patients with sarcoidosis. Design and patients: Lung function and maximal respiratory muscle force generation were measured in 36 patients with sarcoidosis (24 patients with pulmonary parenchymal infiltration) and 25 control subjects free of cardiorespiratory disease. Dyspnea in the sarcoidosis patients was quantitated by a score based on an activity tolerance assessment scale (ranging from rest to climbing hills or stairs).
