The Spirometry parameters of the predicted and observed values of the women of the mining area
| Pulmonary function test | Predicted | Observed | P |
|---|---|---|---|
| FVC (L) | 2.224±0.3466 | 1.3157±0.487 | 0.001 |
| FEV1 (L) | 1.8255±0.654 | 1.2500±0.4850 | 0.001 |
| PFER L/S | 5.90±0.9393 | 2.611±1.185 | 0.001 |
| FEV1/FVC % | 79.0931±3.2280 | 93.650±9.2733 | 0.001 |
P<0.001=Statistically highly significant. FVC: Forced vital capacity, FEV1: Forced expiratory volume in 1 s, FEV1/FVC: Forced expiratory volume in 1 s/forced vital capacity, PEFR: Peak expiratory flow rate, SD: Standard deviation
