Geographical variation in lung function: results from the multicentric cross-se...
Burney, Peter G.; Potts, James; Knox-Brown, Ben; Erhabor, Gregory; Hacene Cherkaski, Hamid; Mortimer, Kevin; Anand, Mahesh Padukudru; Mannino, David M.Spirometry is used to determine what is "unusual" lung function compared with what is "usual" for healthy non-smokers. This study aimed to investigate regional variation in the forced vital capacity (FVC) and in the forced expiratory volume in one second to FVC ratio (FEV1/FVC) using cross-sectional data from all 41 sites of the multinational Burden of Obstructive Lung Disease study. Participants (5,368 men; 9,...
Prevalence of chronic cough, its risk factors and population attributable risk ...
Abozid, Hazim; Patel, Jaymini; Burney, Peter; Hartl, Sylvia; Breyer-Kohansal, Robab; Mortimer, Kevin; Nafees, Asaad A.; Al Ghobain, MohammedBackground: Chronic cough is a common respiratory symptom with an impact on daily activities and quality of life. Global prevalence data are scarce and derive mainly from European and Asian countries and studies with outcomes other than chronic cough. In this study, we aimed to estimate the prevalence of chronic cough across a large number of study sites as well as to identify its main risk factors using a stan...
