Classification of Maximal Expiratory Flow-Volume Types Observed in Non-Smoking Healthy Young Subjects

, 1990
Pulmonary function tests were performed on 234 healthy non-smoking young subjects (189 males and 45 females free from respiratory and allergic symptoms).

Partial forced expiratory flow-volume curves in young children during ketamine anesthesia

, 1987
Maximal flows at functional residual capacity (VmaxFRC) from partial forced expiratory flow-volume (PEFV) curves were obtained in 14 normal preschool children (8 boys, 6 girls) of average age 44 mo, under general anesthesia before elective surgery. PEFV

Effects of thoracic gas compression on maximal and partial flow-volume maneuvers

, 1989
Airway hysteresis can be evaluated by comparing maximal (MEFV) and partial (PEFV) expiratory flow-volume curves. The maneuvers are often obtained from pulmonary function systems that are subject to gas-compression artifacts.

Low birth weight for gestation and airway function in infancy: exploring the fetal origins hypothesis

, 2004
Background: Poor fetal growth has been associated with impaired airway function in adult life, but evidence linking birth weight and airway function in early childhood is sparse.

Pliometric activity of inspiratory muscles: maximal pressure-flow curves

, 1987
We tested the hypothesis that inspiratory muscles, like other skeletal muscles, would exert greater force under pliometric conditions (being lengthened while active) than under isometric or miometric (active shortening) conditions.

Limited bronchoconstriction to methacholine using partial flow-volume curves in nonasthmatic subjects

, 1985
We investigated whether the plateau of the dose-response to nonsensitizing stimuli, such as methacholine, could be explained by the airway dilation that follows lung inflation in nonasthmatics.

Assessment of forced expiratory volume-time parameters in detecting histamine-induced bronchoconstriction in wheezy infants

, 1993
A new technique recently introduced allows the measurement of infant lung function from lung volumes raised by a pump prior to generation of forced expiratory flow-volume (FEFV) curves.

Indices from flow-volume curves in relation to cephalometric, ENT- and sleep-O2 saturation variables in snorers with and without obstructive sleep-apnoea [PDF]

, 1995
In a group of 37 heavy snorers with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA, Group 1) and a group of 23 heavy snorers without OSA (Group 2) cephalometric indices, ENT indices related to upper airway collapsibility, and nocturnal O2 ...
