Differential lung mechanics are genetically determined in inbred murine strains.
Genetic determinants of lung structure and function have been demonstrated by differential phenotypes among inbred mice strains. For example, previous studies have reported phenotypic variation in baseline ventilatory measurements of standard inbred murine strains as well as segregant and nonsegregant offspring of C3H/HeJ (C3) and C57BL/6J (B6) progenitors. One purpose of the present study is t...
متن کاملRelationship between Lung Function and Flour Dust in Flour Factory Workers
Introduction: Exposure to flour dust is an important risk factor in occurrence of allergic airway disorders among mill workers. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of respiratory symptoms and its relation with exposure to respirable dust. Materials and Methods: In this study, all of 35 workers who worked in the flour producing section of three factories were chosen as ca...
متن کاملRelationship between Lung Function and Metabolic Syndrome
Although the link between impaired lung function and cardiovascular events and type 2 diabetes mellitus has been recognized, the association between impaired lung function and metabolic syndrome has not been comprehensively assessed in the United States (U.S.) population. The aim of our study was to explore the association between impaired lung function and metabolic syndrome in a nationally re...
متن کاملRelationship between parental lung function and their children's lung function early in life.
This study investigated the relationship between parental lung function and their children's lung function measured early in life. Infants were participants in the Wheezing Illnesses Study Leidsche Rijn (WHISTLER). Lung function was measured before the age of 2 months using the single occlusion technique. Parental data on lung function (spirometry), medical history and environmental factors wer...
متن کاملRelationship between pulmonary function and lung cancer surgical outcome.
The British Thoracic Society and American College of Chest Physician guidelines outline criteria for investigating patients for lung cancer surgery. However, the guidelines are based on relatively old studies. Therefore, the relationship between pulmonary function test results and surgical outcome were studied prospectively in a large cohort of lung cancer patients. From January 2001 to Decembe...
