To establish the spirometric values for normal, healthy Chinese women in Taiwan, the spirometry of 506 life-long non-smoking, healthy Chinese women was examined, including 140 subjects over the age of 60 years. Significant correlations among age, height and forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), FEV1/FVC%, peak expiratory flow (PEF), Vmax75, Vmax50, Vmax25 were found. However, there were no significant correlations between age and FEV1/FVC%, nor age and Vmax25 in the elderly group. FEV1 (FEV1*) and FVC (FVC*) were standardized to the overall mean height for elderly women using Cole's formula. The decline in FEV1* and FVC* with age were observed. The predicted value for the average 70-year-old woman with a height of 1.5 m derived from the present study is compared with those from other surveys of the elderly. The values from the present study are somewhat higher than the values from the Hong Kong study. The authors believe the fact that all of the present subjects were life-long non-smokers might explain the differences.
为确定台湾正常、健康中国女性的肺功能测定值，对506名终生不吸烟的健康中国女性进行了肺功能测定，其中包括140名60岁以上的受试者。发现年龄、身高与用力肺活量（FVC）、第1秒用力呼气容积（FEV1）、FEV1/FVC%、呼气峰值流速（PEF）、Vmax75、Vmax50、Vmax25之间存在显著相关性。然而，老年组中年龄与FEV1/FVC%之间以及年龄与Vmax25之间无显著相关性。使用科尔公式将FEV1（FEV1*）和FVC（FVC*）标准化为老年女性的总体平均身高。观察到FEV1和FVC随年龄下降。将本研究得出的身高1.5米的70岁女性的预测值与其他老年人调查的预测值进行比较。本研究的值略高于香港研究的值。作者认为所有受试者均为终生不吸烟者这一事实可能解释了这些差异。
