Area of Science:

  • Pulmonary Physiology
  • Respiratory Medicine

Context:

  • Established predictive values for vital capacity (VC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) may not accurately reflect current populations.
  • Previous reference values, like Nikodemowicz's, were published decades ago.

Purpose:

  • To calculate new predictive values for VC and FEV1 in young and middle-aged males.
  • To compare these new values with existing Nikodemowicz and Morris normograms.

Summary:

  • New predictive values for VC and FEV1 were derived using regression analysis in 293 males (15-40 years).
  • The calculated values showed significant increases compared to Nikodemowicz's data.
  • The new values were comparable to Morris's normograms, suggesting their suitability for Polish reference standards.

Impact:

  • Provides updated reference values for pulmonary function tests in a specific demographic.
  • May inform the calibration of spirometry equipment and clinical interpretation of lung function in Poland.
  • Highlights the need for periodic re-evaluation of physiological reference data.
