The global lung function initiative 2021 (GLI-2021) norms provide mixed results for static lung volumes (SLVs) in Algerian adults [PDF]

open access: yesLibyan Journal of Medicine, 2022
The validity of the GLI-2021 norms for SLVs in healthy Algerian adults has not been assessed. To ascertain how well do the GLI-2021 norms fit to contemporary SLVs data in Algerian adults.

Reference values for lung function tests: I. Static volumes [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Static lung volume (LV) measurements have a number of clinical and research applications; however, no previous studies have provided reference values for such tests using a healthy sample of the adult Brazilian population.

Static lung volumes and diffusion capacity in adults 30 years after being diagnosed with asthma [PDF]

open access: yesAsthma Research and Practice, 2022
Background Long-term follow-up studies of adults with well-characterized asthma are sparse. We aimed to explore static lung volumes and diffusion capacity after 30 + years with asthma.

Spirometry, Static Lung Volumes, and Diffusing Capacity. [PDF]

open access: yesRespir Care, 2017
BACKGROUND: Spirometric Z-scores from the Global Lung Initiative (GLI) rigorously account for age-related changes in lung function and are thus age-appropriate when establishing spirometric impairments, including a restrictive pattern and air-flow obstruction.

Updated reference values for static lung volumes from a healthy population in Austria [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Research
Background Reference values for lung volumes are necessary to identify and diagnose restrictive lung diseases and hyperinflation, but the values have to be validated in the relevant population.

Maximum static inspiratory and expiratory pressures with different lung volumes [PDF]

open access: yesBioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2006
Background Maximum pressures developed by the respiratory muscles can indicate the health of the respiratory system, help to determine maximum respiratory flow rates, and contribute to respiratory power development. Past measurements of maximum pressures

Estimation of Static Lung Volumes and Capacities From Spirometry Using Machine Learning: Algorithm Development and Validation [PDF]

open access: yesJMIR AI
BackgroundSpirometry can be performed in an office setting or remotely using portable spirometers. Although basic spirometry is used for diagnosis of obstructive lung disease, clinically relevant information such as restriction, hyperinflation, and air ...

Adult reference values for spirometry, body plethysmography and diffusing capacity adjusted for sex, age, weight, height or arm span - the Danish lung function material (DALFUMAT) study [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Clinical Respiratory Journal
Objectives The study aimed to develop new national reference values for dynamic and static lung volumes, as well as diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide, measured in the same participants.

Impact of weight reduction surgery on static and dynamic lung volumes

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine and Surgery, 2021
Obesity could affect many functions of the body systems, particularly respiratory system. Effect of obesity on respiratory system leads to an impairment in pulmonary function tests which is represented by a decrease in lung volumes and capacities, therefore obstructive or restrictive pulmonary diseases may develop.

Comparison of lung volumes measured with computed tomography and whole-body plethysmography – a systematic review

open access: yesEuropean Clinical Respiratory Journal
Introduction Whole-body plethysmography is the preferred method for measuring the static lung volumes: total lung capacity (TLC), functional residual capacity (FRC) and residual volume (RV), as it also incorporates trapped gas – a common finding in ...
