Body height correction in scoliosis patients for pulmonary function test.
We studied standing anteroposterior roentgenograms from 140 scoliosis patients and obtained a correction equation for body height by Cobb angle. This equation is applicable to patients with a double curve or special curve pattern as well as patients with a single curve. The repeatability of the method examined with this equation was higher than that with the previous correction method for body ...
متن کاملThe accuracy of FEF25-75/ FVC for primary classification of the pulmonary function test
Introduction: The forced expiratory flow at 25 and 75% of the pulmonary volume/forced vital capacity ratio (FEF25-75/FVC) as a spirometry parameter has been successful in the early diagnosis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and the methacholine challenge test for assessing airway responsiveness.To determine the accuracy of FEF25-7...
متن کاملMeasurement of metabolic rate in Drosophila using respirometry.
Metabolic disorders are a frequent problem affecting human health. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms that regulate metabolism is a crucial scientific task. Many disease causing genes in humans have a fly homologue, making Drosophila a good model to study signaling pathways involved in the development of different disorders. Additionally, the tractability of Drosophila simplifies genetic s...
متن کاملEffects of Tonsil size on Pulmonary Function test Results after Tonsillectomy in Children
Introduction: Adenotonsillar hypertrophy is a typical cause of surgery in children. Evaluation and identification of patients as potential candidates tonsillectomy is a primary concern for otolaryngologists. This study focuses on the results of pulmonary function tests (PFTs) after tonsillectomy in children. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study examined 50 patients suffering from t...
متن کاملPartitional respirometry in cardio-pulmonary disease.
Respiratory disorders can now be classified by the average laboratory as primary defects of respiratory mechanics or of gas uptake, and the verdict is accepted with reasonable confidence. However, further classification of disordered gas uptake is still a tedious and uncertain business. The aim of partitional respirometry is to meet this challenge, distinguishing three basic components of the g...
