Analysis of maximal expiratory flow-volume curves in adult survivors of preterm birth [PDF]
American Journal of Physiology - Regulatory Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2019 Adult survivors of very preterm (≤32 wk gestational age) birth without (PRE) and with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) have variable degrees of airflow obstruction at rest. Assessment of the shape of the maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curve in PRE and BPD may provide information concerning their unique pattern of airflow obstruction.

Quantifying the shape of maximal expiratory flow-volume curves in healthy humans and asthmatic patients [PDF]
Respiratory Physiology and Neurobiology, 2016 Differences in the absolute flow and volume of maximal expiratory flow-volume (MEFV) curves have been studied extensively in health and disease. However, the shapes of MEFV curves have received less attention. We questioned if the MEFV curve shape was associated with (i) expiratory flow limitation (EFL) in health and (ii) changes in bronchial caliber ...

Maximal expiratory flow-volume curves in Londoners aged 60 years and over. [PDF]
Thorax, 1987 To obtain more accurate information about respiratory function in the elderly, we carried out spirometry and constructed maximum expiratory flow-volume curves in 136 volunteers over the age of 60 years (90 women, 46 men). Significant age related differences were found.

, 2019 Additional file 1: Figure S1. The relationship between RCEXP and maximal mid-expiratory flow rate (MMF). To a certain extent, RCEXP is sociated with MMF with an R2 value of 0.3154 (P < 0.001). There is a gradual increase in RCEXP, especially when MMF is below approximately 1.0 L/s. Figure S2.
