Reference spirometric values in a Sudanese cohort.
To determine normal values of respiratory function for Sudanese, a randomized stratified cross-sectional study was performed on 2250 healthy Sudanese aged 7-86 years in 2002-05. Data were obtained through a questionnaire, pulmonary function testing and taking anthropometric measurements. Lung function and anthropometric measurements were correlated and regression equations were derived. Sudanes...
متن کاملSpirometric reference values in Senegalese black adults.
Spirometric volumes and expiratory flows were measured among 448 Senegalese males and females of 25-80 yrs of age. The values obtained are similar to those reported for black Africans and black Americans in the literature. Volumes are 15-25% lower in males and 23% lower in females than in Caucasians. Forced expiratory flow between 25-75% of vital capacity (VC), (FEF25-75) is 5-18% lower in male...
متن کاملSpirometric reference values in a large Middle Eastern population.
Ethnic differences in pulmonary function have been frequently reported. The purposes of this study were to derive equations for the prediction of normative spirometry values for a large population of Persians in Isfahan and compare them to reference values from a White Euro-USA population. Spirometry measurements were obtained from 4,341 randomly selected healthy nonsmoker subjects in Isfahan, ...
متن کاملSpirometric reference values in healthy, non-smoking, urban Pakistani population.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the lung function prediction equation and to calculate appropriate normal reference values for the Pakistani adults living in Karachi. METHODS Predicted equations for normal lung functions were derived from 504 healthy non-smoking subjects including 321 males and 183 females aged 15-65 years. The subjects underwent measurement of spirometric flow and volume. The followin...
متن کاملSpirometric reference values in greek children and adolescents.
AIM This study was performed to describe the relationship among anthropometric parameters and lung function in Greek children, to produce reference values for spirometry and to compare these results with other data sets. PATIENTS AND METHODS Spirometric values were measured with electronic portable Spirometer Spirolab II (MIR) in 414 healthy, nonsmoking Greek children, aged 6-18 years. Multip...
