[A study of pulmonary function in smokers without symptoms using pairing and testing].
A total of 38 pairs in each group (observed group and controlled groups) were selected. A comparison was also make between the observed group and the 29 no-smokers. Based on the statistical data of 18 pulmonary function tests obtained in the present study, the author suggested that FVM, FVV and BR% were rather highly sensitive in defecting abnormal change in pulmonary function.
