Forced expiratory volume (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and peak expiratory flow (PEF) were measured in healthy subjects (129 men, 210 women) aged 60 years and above who were leading an independent and active life in the community. Women but not men showed an age related decline in FEV1 and FVC. Correlations of FEV1 and FVC with height were weaker than those reported for all age groups. Male ex-smokers had lower FEV1 values than current smokers and non-smokers. Regression equations are derived for men and women for predicting values appropriate to Chinese elderly people. These values are slightly lower than those for white people, but the difference is not as great as in values derived from surveys of all age groups.
对社区中60岁及以上独立且生活积极的健康受试者(129名男性,210名女性)测量了用力呼气量(FEV1)、用力肺活量(FVC)和呼气峰值流速(PEF)。女性而非男性的FEV1和FVC出现与年龄相关的下降。FEV1和FVC与身高的相关性比所有年龄组报告的相关性弱。男性既往吸烟者的FEV1值低于当前吸烟者和非吸烟者。推导了男性和女性预测适合中国老年人数值的回归方程。这些数值略低于白人,但差异不如所有年龄组调查得出的数值差异那么大。
