The tussometric parameter peak value time (PVT) has been proposed as an objective measure of laryngeal function. Whether the lower respiratory tract function influences its value is, however, unknown. This study investigates the relationship between lung function parameters forced expiratory volume in 1 second, vital capacity, peak expiratory flow rate,

Abstract Ventilatory Mechanics . In acute hypovolemic shock the lung is more compliant if intermittently inflated. Resistance usually falls. After endotoxin administration the lung is less compliant and resistance rises. The effect is of short duration in both types of shock.

Age and Ageing, 1985
Studies of lung function have largely ignored the elderly. This paper reviews what is known of the decline in measurements of lung function, and focuses on reduced elastic recoil as a key to these changes. Independent anthropometric changes which may affect lung function with advancing years are also discussed.

Correct lung function is indispensible to perform work underwater. Thus, spirometric tests of lung function remain an important element in the process of selecting candidates for professional diving. Studies conducted in the population of divers identified the phenomenon called 'large lungs', which is often associated with spirometric indices ...

In order to assess the effect of silicosis on lung function, 61 gold miners with radiological silicosis were compared with 61 controls. Each pair was matched for age, dust exposure, and smoking habits. A full range of lung function tests was performed, and with two exceptions the results showed no significant differences between the two groups.

The metabolic function of the lung
Pharmaceutisch Weekblad Scientific Edition, 1987Whereas the respiratory function of the lung has been studied extensively, there are only scarce data available concerning the lung's drug clearance capabilities in man. Its metabolic function in hormonally active agents has been documented in animals.

The main purpose of respiration is to increase the oxygen content and decrease the carbon dioxide content of the blood in the pulmonary circulation to levels suitable for metabolism in the body. This is done by breathing a gas mixture, usually the atmospheric one. In this paper I shall refer to the whole gas transport as the lung function. In reviewing

On the function and design of the lung
The Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics, 1962The purpose of this paper is to explore further the possibilities of a theory of structure (form) as determined by function. The paper is preliminary in nature and emphasis is placed more on the methodological approach than on immediately verifiable conclusions.
