Reference Values for Spirometry Derived Using Lambda, Mu, Sigma (LMS) Method in Korean Adults: in Comparison with Previous References
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to update the prediction equations for spirometry and their lower limits of normal (LLN) by using the lambda, mu, sigma (LMS) method and to compare the outcomes with the values of previous spirometric reference equations. METHODS Spirometric data of 10,249 healthy non-smokers (8,776 females) were extracted from the fourth and fifth versions of the Korea Nati...
متن کاملA method is presented to plan the required sample size when estimating regression-based reference limits.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Reference limits are widely used in anthropometry, the behavioral sciences, medicine, and clinical chemistry. They describe the distribution of a quantitative variable in a healthy population, and are often a smooth function of age or another determinant. Thus, instead of estimating reference limits separately for several age groups, it is more economical and parsimonio...
متن کاملSuperdeduction in Lambda-Bar-Mu-Mu-Tilde
Superdeduction is a method specially designed to ease the use of first-order theories in predicate logic. The theory is used to enrich the deduction system with new deduction rules in a systematic, correct and complete way. A proof-term language and a cut-elimination reduction already exist for superdeduction, both based on Christian Urban’s work on classical sequent calculus. However the compu...
متن کاملRegression-based reference limits: determination of sufficient sample size.
Regression analysis is the method of choice for the production of covariate-dependent reference limits. There are currently no recommendations on what sample size should be used when regression-based reference limits and confidence intervals are calculated. In this study we used Monte Carlo simulation to study a reference sample group of 374 age-dependent hemoglobin values. From this sample, 50...
متن کاملExhaled nitric oxide in a population sample of adults.
BACKGROUND The relationship between exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) and the diagnosis of asthma in the general adult population is not completely clear. OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between FENO and asthma, after controlling for atopy and rhinitis, in a general population sample of adults (mean age 43 years). METHODS The cohort of subjects was a sample of subjects who gave their co...
