Urinary Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Metabolites and Altered Lung Function in Wuhan, China.
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2016RATIONALE Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been associated with adverse effects on the respiratory system. However, the association between internal levels of PAH metabolites and lung function levels remains unclear.

Lung Development, Lung Function, and Retinoids
New England Journal of Medicine, 2010In this issue of the Journal, Checkley et al. report that, in a region with endemic vitamin A (retinol) deficiency, children whose mothers had received vitamin A supplementation before, during, and for 6 months after pregnancy had better lung function when they were tested at 9 to 11 years of age than children whose mothers had received beta carotene ...

Factors affecting normal values for ventilatory lung function.
American Review of Respiratory Disease, 2015As part of an epidemiologic survey in New Guinea, forced vital capacity, one-second forced expiratory volume, subdivisions of lung volume, and peak expiratory flow were measured in a population living in the highlands and in a population living on the ...

Functional Evaluation of Lung Mitochondria
Chest, 1975Activity of lung mitochondria was studied with a preparation of isolated mitochondria. This was correlated with responses of the isolated perfused lung as determined from surface fluorescence measurements and tissue redox couples. Lung mitochondria demonstrated substrate oxidation, respiratory control, and Caplus plus activation of alpha ...

Body Composition and Lung Function
2012A growing body of evidence indicates that excess body weight is associated with a wide range of health conditions, including respiratory diseases. Cross-sectional studies have demonstrated an inverse relationship between body mass index and pulmonary function evaluated by spirometry.

Functional Morphology of the Growing Lung
Respiration, 1970The understanding of pulmonary function immediately after birth and in the weeks following is greatly facilitated if we know the morphological changes accompanying development. As such studies are not easily done on human infants we have performed a number of experimental studies on animals, particularly on the rat.
