Physical activity

1 study
  1. Physical activity showed no clear effect on pneumothorax in silico (other levels of physical activity).

    “did not identify a causal association between other levels of physical activity and pneumothorax”

1 study
  1. Older age is linked with lower pneumothorax in humans following rib fractures / thoracic trauma.

    “They had significantly fewer pulmonary contusions and pneumothoraces than the younger patients”
