Antioxidant intake, GSTM1 polymorphism and pulmonary function in healthy young adults.
Dietary antioxidants may protect lung tissue against reactive oxygen species-induced injury, adverse respiratory effects and reduced pulmonary function. Genetic variability in antioxidant enzymes also determines response to oxidative stress in the lung. The current authors evaluated whether lung function levels are associated with dietary intake of antioxidants and the glutathione S-transferase...
متن کاملVentilatory Function in Young Adults and Dietary Antioxidant Intake
Dietary antioxidants may protect against poor ventilatory function. We assessed the relation between ventilatory function and antioxidant components of diet in young Chileans. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and the ratio FEV1/FVC were measured in 1232 adults aged 22-28 years, using a Vitalograph device. Dietary intake was ascertained with a food frequency q...
متن کاملPulmonary function in healthy young adult Indians in Madras.
Forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second, functional residual capacity, residual volume, total lung capacity, and single breath diffusing capacity measurements (effective alveolar volume, carbon monoxide transfer factor, and transfer coefficient) were measured in 247 young healthy adults (130 male, 117 female) aged 15-40 years living in Madras. Subjects were of Dravidian st...
متن کاملCutaneous vascular function during acute hyperglycemia in healthy young adults.
Although it is well established that severe chronic hyperglycemia is associated with microvascular disease, it is not known whether transient hyperglycemia similar to that observed with impaired glucose tolerance or early Type 2 diabetes contributes to this pathology by altering microvascular function. To test the hypothesis that acute hyperglycemia decreases microvascular vasodilator responsiv...
متن کاملPulmonary function studies in young healthy Malaysians of Kelantan, Malaysia
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Pulmonary function tests have been evolved as clinical tools in diagnosis, management and follow up of respiratory diseases as it provides objective information about the status of an individual's respiratory system. The present study was aimed to evaluate pulmonary function among the male and female young Kelantanese Malaysians of Kota Bharu, Malaysia, and to compare th...
