Positive effort dependence of maximal expiratory flow
, 1987 The maximal expiratory-flow volume (MEFV) curve in normal subjects is thought to be relatively effort independent over most of the vital capacity (VC). We studied seven normal males and found positive effort dependence of maximal expiratory flow between

Discriminant analysis of asthmatic patients and healthy adults using maximal expiratory indices [PDF]
, 1989 The selection of effective maximal expiratory was evaluated using discriminant analysis of asthmatic patients and healthy adults in this review. Maximal expiratory volume-time and flow-volume (MEVT and MEFV) curves were drawn for young non-smoking ...

, 1983 The first major advance in understanding expiratory flow limitation of the lungs came with the description of isovolume pressure-flow curves. These curves documented the existence of a volume-dependent limit to maximal expiratory flow and led directly ...

Airway dynamics in transition between peak and maximal expiratory flow
, 1985 Expiratory flow-volume curves with periodic interruption of flow showed flow transients exceeding maximal flow (Vmax) measured on the maximum expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curve in a mechanical lung model and in five tracheotomized, vagotomized, open ...

Effects of airway tone and volume history on maximal expiratory flow in asthma
, 1987 We assessed the difference between isovolumic maximal expiratory flows (Vmax) using maneuvers begun at mid-lung volumes, so-called partial expiratory flow-volume curves (P), vs.

, 1993 Fifteen patients with Japanese cedar pollenosis were examined for lower airway function. Flow-volume patterns obtained from flow-volume and volume-time curves during the pollen season (March) and outside of the pollen season (June) were evaluated.

The Concavity of the Maximal Expiratory Flow–Volume Curve Reflects the Extent of Emphysema in Obstructive Lung Diseases [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractA concave-shaped maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curve is a spirometric feature in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The MEFV curve is characterized by an increase in the Obstructive Index, which is defined as a ratio of forced vital capacity to the volume-difference between two points of half of the peak expiratory flow on ...

Prediction of maximal expiratory flow in excised human lungs
, 1980 The predictions of the wave-speed theory of flow limitations were tested against measured values of maximal expiratory flow (Vmax) in nine normal excised human lungs.

Physiological ReportsWe sought to determine the repeatability of EFL in healthy adults during incremental cycle exercise. We hypothesized that the repeatability of EFL would be “strong” when assessed as a binary variable (i.e., absent or present) but “poor” when assessed as ...
