15 صفحه اولDiscriminant value of thyroid function tests.
Different thyroid function tests permitted a final classification of 204 consecutive patients with suspected thyroid disorders into three populations (thyrotoxic, euthyroid, and hypothyroid). Linear discriminant analysis was applied to all test results (10 variates) on adjacent population pairs. Two invitro tests (serum protein bound iodine (P.B.I.) and tri-iodothyronine (T-3) uptake values) ga...
متن کاملSerial pulmonary function tests in patients with asbestosis.
Serial lung function tests were performed on 17 patients with asbestosis. A marked fall in the transfer factor often preceded any significant decline in the vital capacity. Changes in vital capacity and transfer factor did not appear to give any indication of the prognosis in these patients. Death was more commonly due to carcinoma of the lung than to the effects of the lung fibrosis.
متن کاملValue based interpretation of pulmonary function tests.
Two contrasting errors in spirometric interpretation are the inappropriate conclusion of "normality" (type I) and of "abnormality" (type II). A survey of 67 health professionals showed major interpersonal and intersituational differences in opinion about the optimal relative proportions of type I and type II errors. This suggests the need for caution in the commonly employed practice of interpr...
متن کاملAssessment of progression of asbestosis in the sheep model by bronchoalveolar lavage and pulmonary function tests.
To study the relationship between the results of bronchoalveolar lavage and pulmonary function tests during induction and progression of asbestosis, three groups of six sheep were exposed repeatedly by intratracheal injection to either saline (controls), low doses of Canadian chrysotile UICC asbestos (cumulative exposure 328 mg) (low-dose group), or high doses of the same fibres (cumulative dos...
