Can spirometric norms be set using pre- or post- bronchodilator test results in older people?Bernet Kato
Respiratory Epidemiology and Public Health, National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College, London, UK
Respir Res 13:102. 2012..Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is defined by post-bronchodilator spirometry. Data on "normal values" come predominantly from pre-bronchodilator spirometry. The effects of this on diagnosis are unknown...
The use of ethnically specific norms for ventilatory function in African-American and white populationsP G J Burney
National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College, London, UK
Int J Epidemiol 41:782-90. 2012..It is unclear to what extent the lower lung function found in African-Americans is 'normal' in the sense of having no adverse consequences...
Risk factors for COPD spirometrically defined from the lower limit of normal in the BOLD projectRichard Hooper
National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College, Emmanuel Kaye Building, 1 Manresa Road, London SW3 6LR, UK
Eur Respir J 39:1343-53. 2012..More research is required to elucidate relevant risk factors in low- and middle-income countries where the greatest impact of COPD will occur...
A multivariate analysis of serum nutrient levels and lung functionTricia M McKeever
Division of Epidemiology and Public Health, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, UK
Respir Res 9:67. 2008..The aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive examination of the independent associations of a wide range of serum markers of nutritional status with lung function, measured as the one-second forced expiratory volume (FEV1)...

Prevalence and distribution of sensitization to foods in the European Community Respiratory Health Survey: a EuroPrevall analysisP Burney
Respiratory Epidemiology and Public Health, Imperial College, London, UK
Allergy 65:1182-8. 2010..Reports of adverse reactions to foods are increasing, but there is limited information on the comparative prevalence of sensitization to food allergens using standardized methods...
Forced vital capacity, airway obstruction and survival in a general population sample from the USAP G J Burney
National Heart Lung Institute, Imperial College, London, UK
Thorax 66:49-54. 2011..However, the observation that vital capacity is also associated with survival weakens this interpretation...
The effects of allergens in outdoor air on both atopic and nonatopic subjects with airway diseaseP G J Burney
Respiratory Epidemiology and Public Health, National Heart and Lung Institute, Imperial College, London, UK
Allergy 63:542-6. 2008..With no generalized test for allergen in air, it is not known how far allergen is responsible for nonepidemic exacerbations of the disease...
