چکیده
The masimum effort flow-volume (MFV) loops of 82 subject8 were analyzed dong with standard spirometric me&urementa Thirty-eight ;ere normal smokers and nonmoken. Ninetan had d c t i v e disease and 25 had o ~ c t i v e disease. The means of the maximum e x p b tog and inspiratory Bows at pePL, and at 75,50 and 25 percent VC with their ratios are determined for dl groupe. The location of PEF in the VC, PEF-MEF7a/PEF percent and AV/AV over midexpimtlon are Plso given. MEF2a and MEF2a/MIF2a weF 8ignificmtly lower in normal smokers than in nonsmoker& AV/ AV wss

Introduction: The forced expiratory flow at 25 and 75% of the pulmonary volume/forced vital capacity ratio (FEF25-75/FVC) as a spirometry parameter has been successful in the early diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the methacholine challenge test for assessing airway responsiveness.To determine the accuracy of FEF25-7...

Introduction: Forced expiratory value in one score (FEV1)/ Forced vital capacity (FVC) was used in classical literature for primary classifications of pulmonary disorders. American Thoracic Society/ European Respiratory Society guidelines recommended using FEV1/VC instead of FEV1/FVC.The aim of study was determination of the extent of superiority of FEV1/VC over the FEV1/FVC.

متن کاملEffects of Sodium Cromoglycate on Iranian Asthmatic Subjects Without Exposure to any Bronchoconstrictor agent
Cromolyn sodium, a mast cell stabilizing agent, provides an immediate protective effect against the exercise-induced bronchoconstriction while being used before the exercise. However, cromolyn is ineffective in reversing asthmatic bronchospasm; it is used as a maintenance therapy and has a prophylactic role in chronic asthma. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of change...
