The maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) is one of the most widely used pulmonary function test, but its measuring method was very difficult and unreliable. However, it is need to get more easy and simple measuring method of MVV. Therefore, this study was attempted to get more easy and simple measuring method of MVV by means of the forced expiratory volume $(FEV_{T})$. The young and healthy 1,000 Korean students(592 male and 408 female) were cheesed for this purpose and whose ages were from 8 to 20 years. A spirometer (9L, Collins Co.) was used for the MVV and FEV, and they were measured 3 times at standing position, and the highest value was used. In the measurements, the subjects for MVV were asked for the breath as fast and deeply as possible for 12 seconds, and for FEV were asked for the rapid and forceful exhalation after a maximal inhalation (forced expiratory curve). In the FEV measurements toward the end of the expiration, the subjects were exhaused to continue the effort until no further gas was expired. During these measurements, the investigator stood by the subject to give a constant encouragement. FEV were calculated in the volume exhaled during the one-half $(FEV_{0{\cdot}5,}\;ml)$, the first second $(FEV_{1{\cdot}0,}\;ml)$ and the percentage of the total vital capacity exhaled during the one-half second $(FEV_{0{\cdot}5,}\;%)$. The results are summarized as follows: 1) The values of MVV were increased linearly with ages until 20 in both sexes. The values of male at the age of 20 was $168.2{\pm}2.5L/min$, and female at the age of 17 was $112.3{\pm}3.0L/min$, respectively. 2) The values of FEV (ml) were increased linearly with ages until 20 in both sexes. The values of $FEV_{0{\cdot}5}$ were $2,797{\pm}65.7ml$ in the male of 20 years and were $2,088{\pm}54.6ml$ in the female of 17 years, and of $FEV_{1{\cdot}0$ were $4,119{\pm}68.2ml$ in the male of 20 years and were $2,897{\pm}65.9ml$ in the female of 17 years, respectively. 3) The correlation coefficients between MVV and $FEV_{0{\cdot}5}\;or\;FEV_{1{\cdot}0$ (ml) were 0.82 or 0.85 in the male, and 0.77 or 0.79 in the female, respectively. 4) The prediction formulae for MVV to be derived from above results were: For male: MVV (L/min) =7.19+$0.05{\times}FEV_{0\cdot5}(ml)$, MVV (L/min)=11.25+$0.04{\times}FEV_{1\cdot0}(ml)$ For female: MVV (L/min)=16.03+$0.05{\times}FEV_{0\cdot5}(ml)$, MVV (L/min)=9.47+$0.03{\times}FEV_{1\cdot0}(ml)$.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate respiratory functions in relation to the gross motor functions(total value of GMFM), the difference of chest girth, and the changing position in spastic children. The respiratory functions(FVC, FEV1, $FEV1\%$, and PEF) were measured in the supine, the $45^{\circ}$semi-sitting, and the $45^{\circ}$sitting in 9 subjects. In the supine position, the mean difference of chest girth was $1.56{\pm}0.80cm$, the total value of GMFM was $45.41{\pm}17.79\%$. In the supine position, there was significant positive relationship in FVC-FEV1, FVC-PEF, and FEV1-PEF, but there was no significant relationship in GMFM and all respiratory functions. In the $45^{\circ}$semi-sitting, there was significant positive relationship in GMFM-FVC, FVC-FEV1, FVC-PEF, FEV1-PEF, and $FEV1\%-PEF$. In the $90^{\circ}$sitting, there was significant positive relationship in GMFM-FEV1, $GMFM-FEV1\%$, FVC-FEV1, FVC-PEF, and FEV1-PEF. In results of measured respiratory functions according to the postures, the supine position had highest value in all respiratory functions, but there were no significant (p<0.05).

Height has become one of the most important factors to determine the pulmonary function test index, and there is a high correlation between them, so that they have been utilized for evaluating pulmonary function test predictive value or nomogram. Therefore, we have tried to find out that difference and if there is any correlation and linear relationship between height and forced expiratory flow curve. There were a total of 163 subjects, male 93 and female 70. This study was done at the Department of Pulmonary Function Test of Jeon-Ju Presbyterian Hospital and we measured the index at the forced expiratory flow curve of FVC, $FEV_{1.0}$, $FEV_{1.0}$/FVC, $FEF_{25-75%}$, and $FEF_{200-1200m{\ell}}$. When we subjected the group of height more than 160cm, there were gradual increments at FVC(p<0.001), $FEV_{1.0}$(p<0.001), $FEF_{25-75%}$(p<0.05) and $FEF_{200-1200m{\ell}}$(p<0.001), but no changes at $FEV_{1.0}$/FVC in terms of forced expiratory flow curve index. We have analyzed the relationship between height and forced expiratory flow curve, there was a close relationship at FVC(r=0.670, p<0.01), $FEV_{1.0}$(r=0.491, p<0.01), $FEF_{25-75%}$ (r=0.175, p<0.05) and $FEF_{200-1200m{\ell}}$(r=0.370, p<0.01) but there was reciprocal relationship at $FEV_{1.0}$/FVC(r=-0.215, p<0.01). We have tried simple regression analysis to see if height affects forced expiratory flow curve index as a sector, and the result was $FVC(\ell)=0.0642{\times}height(cm)-7.2978$(p<0.01, $R^2=0.449$), $FEV_{1.0}(\ell)=0.0407{\times}height(cm)-4.2774$ (p<0.01, $R^2=0.2411$), $FEV_{1.0}/FVC(%)=-0.2892{\times}height(cm)+121.44$(p<0.01, $R^2=0.0464$), $FEF_{25-75%}(\ell/sec)=0.0176{\times}height(cm)-0.7876$(p<0.05, $R^2=0.0237$), $FEF_{200-1200m{\ell}}(\ell/sec)=0.0967{\times}height(cm)-11.037$(p<0.01, $R^2=0.1214$) this was approved statistically. According to this study, if height is taller than average, forced expiratory flow curve index were increased, there was a close relationship between height and forced expiratory flow curve, and there was a linear relationship as sector between height and forced expiratory flow curve index. Therefore, researches that study other factors such as sex, age, weight, body surface area, and obesity indexes other than height should be done to see if there are any further relationships.

Occupational exposure to inorganic dusts such as coal and silica has been identified as a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) risk factor. This risk factor causes lung inflammation and protease-antiprotease imbalance. This abnormal inflammatory response of the lung induces parenchymal tissue destruction and leads to progressive airflow limitation that is characteristics of COPD. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship of proteases such as neutrophil elastase (NE) and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and antiproteases such as alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 with lung function. The study population contained 223 retired workers exposed to inorganic dusts. We performed lung function test, including percent of forced expiratory volume in one second ($%FEV_1$) predicted and $%FEV_1$/forced vital capacity (FVC). We analyzed serum MMP-9, AAT, TIMP-1 and plasma NE concentrations by sandwich enzyme immunoassay. NE, AAT, and TIMP-1 concentrations in workers, who had $%FEV_1$<80% predicted, were higher than those of workers who had $%FEV_1{\geq}80%$ (P<0.05). Both AAT and TIMP-1 concentrations in workers with airflow limitation were higher than those of workers with normal airflow (P<0.05). $%FEV_1$ predicted showed significant negative correlation with AAT (r=-0.255, P<0.0l), TIMP-1 (r=-0.232, P<0.01), and NE (r=-0.196, P<0.01). $%FEV_1$/FVC predicted showed significant negative correlation with NE (r=-0.172, P<0.05). From the results of stepwise multiple regression analysis about $%FEV_1$ and $%FEV_1$/FVC, significant independents were NE (r=-0.135, P=0.001) and AAT (r=-0.100, P=0.013) in $%FEV_1$, and NE (r=-0.160, P=0.014) in $%FEV_1$/FVC. In the present study, there were significant correlations between airflow limitation and protease concentration and between airflow limitation and antiprotease concentration. Serum protease and antiprotease concentrations, however, may be affected by the biological and inflammatory responses. It is necessary to evaluate specimens more reflected the effects of proteases and antiproteases in the lung such as lung tissue, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and exhaled breath condensate (EBC).

Body index is known as it affects pulmonary function tests (PFT), so it has been used with predictive formula and nomogram in terms of sex, age, height, etc. Body indices as body weight, body mass index (BMI), and body surface area (BSA) might also affect PFT, so that we have analyzed the correlations between body indices and forced expiratory volume in one second ($FEV_1$), and have done multiple regression analysis to see how body indices affect $FEV_1$. We confirmed that $FEV_1$ had positive correlations with height (r=0.49, p<0.01), body weight (r=0.37, p<0.01), and BSA (r=0.47, p<0.01), inverse correlation with age (r=-0.45, p<0.01), but no correlation with BMI. We found that the 41.9% of $FEV_1$ was diverged from height, age and BSA. Therefore, BSA definitely needs to be considered with predictive formula and nomogram in PFT.

목 적 : 본 연구는 외래에서 진료가 가능한 경도의 천식 환자에서 $FEV_1$ %와 PEFR% 값의 연관성을 알아보고자 시행 하였다. 방 법 : 2003년 9월부터 2004년 8월까지 건국 대학교 병원 호흡기 내과 외래에서 진료를 받은 경증의 기관지 천식 환자들을 대상으로 PEFR과 $FEV_1$를 측정하여 두 검사 값 사이의 연관성을 분석하였다. 결 과 : $FEV_1$ (predicted %)로 경증으로 분류된 87명의 환자 중 PEFR 검사로 82명(94.3%)의 환자가 동일한 경증으로 분류되었고, $FEV_1$ %가 중등증으로 분류된 5명의 환자 중 PEFR로 중증도 분류 시 5명(100%) 모두 동일한 중등증 분류되었다. $FEV_1$ %에 의한 중증도와 PEFR %에 의한 중증도가 일치하지 않는 경우는 전체 92명 중 5명(5.7%)였다. $FEV_1$ %와 PEFR %값의 상관 계수는0.686로(Y= 0.427 + 56.35 X, p<0.01 순상관 관계를 보였고 가중 ${\kappa}$(kappa)상관계수는 0.74 (95% CI, 0.63-0.81)로 일치성을 보였다. 결 론 : 증상이 심하지 않은 경도의 천식 환자에서 PEFR%와 $FEV_1$ %은 높은 일치성을 보여 상호 교환 사용이 가능할 것으로 생각되며, 경도의 증상만 있는 천식 환자에 대해서 폐 기능 검사 기계가 구비되어 있지 않은 의료 기관에서 최대 호기 유속기의 올바른 사용만으로도 정확하고 객관적인 자료를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Background: Although various methods are already used to calculate predicted postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV₁) based on preoperative FEV₁ in lung surgery, the predicted postoperative FEV₁ is not always the same as the actual postoperative FEV₁. Observed postoperative FEV₁ values are usually the same or higher than the predicted postoperative FEV₁. To overcome this issue, we investigated the relationship between the number of resected lung segments and the discordance of preoperative and postoperative FEV₁ values. Methods: From September 2014 to May 2020, the data of all patients who underwent anatomical lung resection by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) were gathered and analyzed retrospectively. We investigated the association between the number of resected segments and the differential FEV₁ (a measure of the discrepancy between the predicted and observed postoperative FEV₁) using the t-test and linear regression. Results: Information on 238 patients who underwent VATS anatomical lung resection at Kyung Hee University Hospital at Gangdong and by DH. Kim for benign and malignant disease was collected. After applying the exclusion criteria, 114 patients were included in the final analysis. In the multiple linear regression model, the number of resected segments showed a positive correlation with the differential FEV₁ (Pearson r=0.384, p<0.001). After adjusting for multiple covariates, the differential FEV₁ increased by 0.048 (95% confidence interval, 0.023-0.073) with an increasing number of resected lung segments (R²=0.271, p<0.001). Conclusion: In this study, after pulmonary resection, the number of resected segments showed a positive correlation with the differential FEV₁.

연구배경: 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자에서 기관지확장제 사용후 임상 증상의 호전을 보이는 경우에도 폐기능 검사상 $FEV_1$의 증가가 뚜렷하지 않은 경우가 종종 관찰된다. 이러한 현상은 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자에서 $FEV_1$이 환기기능의 변화를 예민하게 반응하지 못하기 때문으로 알려져 있다. 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자에서 기저 병태생리는 호기시 기도폐쇄이지만 결과적으로 흡기시 호흡시스템의 부하가 증가하는 것이다. 그러므로 기관지확장제로 인한 환기역학의 개선으로 임상 증상이 호전되는데 이는 흡기시 부하가 감소된 결과일 가능성이 있다. 이에 저자들은 기관지확장제에 대한 흡기시 환기역학의 반응을 보기 위한 연구를 시행하였다. 방법: 대상은 17명의 만성폐쇄성폐질환환자이며 이중 3명은 여자였고 14명은 남자였다. 나이는 45세에서 80세 사이였으며($65.5{\pm}9.4$세) 검사전 최근 2주사이에 급성악화의 병력이 없는 안정상태에 있었다. 먼저 안정상태에서 호기와 흡기의 노력성유량-기량곡선(Forced F1ow-volume Curve)을 측정한 후 salbutamol($Ventolin^{(R)}$) 용액 10mg을 jet nebulizer($Devilbiss^{(R)}$ model 646)를 이용하여 4분간 흡입후 15분 뒤 다시 각각 호기와 흡기의 노력성유량-기량곡선을 측정하였다. 결과: 17명 환자의 기관지확장제 홉입전 $FEV_1$은 $0.92{\pm}0.34L$($38.3{\pm}14.9%$), FVC는 $2.25{\pm}0.81L$($71.1{\pm}21.0%$), $FEV_1$/FVC%는 $43.1{\pm}14.5%$였다. 기관지확장제 흡입후 $FEV_1$, FVC, Peak Inspiratory Flow(PIF)의 증가는 각각 $0.15{\pm}0.13L$, $0.58{\pm}0.38L$, $1.0{\pm}0.56L/sec$ 였으며, 초기값에 대한 변화율은 각각 $17.0{\pm}14.3%$, $29.0{\pm}22.5%$, $37.5{\pm}16.7%$ 였다. PIF의 증가는 $FEV_1$ 증가의 2배이상 되었으며(p<0.001), 기관지 확장제 흡입후 $FEV_1$의 증가가 거의 없었던 3례에서도 PIF의 증가는 각각 35.0%, 44.0%, 55.2% 였다. 결론: 만성폐쇄성폐질환 환자에서 기관지확장제에 의한 환기역학의 호전은 호기의 지표보다 흡기의 지표가 더 예민하게 반영하는 것으로 보인다.
