Prognostic implications of physiologic and radiographic changes in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are a diverse group of lung diseases with varied prognoses. We hypothesized that changes in physiologic and radiographic parameters would predict survival.

Forced Vital Capacity in Malaysian Females.

open access: yesThe Japanese Journal of Physiology, 1992
Spirometry was performed on 614 female subjects ranging in age from 13 to 69 years and comprising all the main races in Malaysia. They were divided into six age categories. Mean forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) were 2.51 +/- 0.02 and 2.31 +/- 0.02l, respectively.

A study on the various anthropometric determinants of forced vital capacity in male subjects

open access: yesNational Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2021
Background: The lung function tests are a group of tests that measure the lung functions. These tests give a comprehensive evaluation of the respiratory system in an individual. They are an indispensable tool for clinical evaluation of respiratory health

Genome-wide association analysis identifies six new loci associated with forced vital capacity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Forced vital capacity (FVC), a spirometric measure of pulmonary function, reflects lung volume and is used to diagnose and monitor lung diseases. We performed genome-wide association study meta-analysis of FVC in 52,253 individuals from 26 studies and ...
