Ninety-three men, representatives of the Wopkaimin, Ningerum and Awin ethnic groups in the Ok Tedi region of Western Province, Papua New Guinea, had their forced expiratory volume in one second and forced vital capacity measured. No differences were observed between any of the groups studied, though volumes were small and tended to be slightly greater in those living nearer Tabubil and the Ok Tedi mine, and in nonsmokers. Mean adjusted volumes were smaller than those for other Papua New Guineans and Europeans.
对来自巴布亚新几内亚西部省份奥克泰迪地区的沃皮卡明、宁盖鲁姆和阿温族的93名男性进行了一秒用力呼气量和用力肺活量的测量。在所研究的任何组之间均未观察到差异，尽管测量值较小，且居住在靠近塔布比尔和奥克泰迪矿的人群以及不吸烟者的测量值往往略高。调整后的平均测量值低于其他巴布亚新几内亚人和欧洲人的测量值。
