About
The focus of this proposal is to investigate:
i. The quality of the spirogram data and provision of recommended algorithms and derived variables that will be of use to other researchers;
ii. The cross-sectional determinants of respiratory health and lung function;
iii. Its relationship to the future onset of both fatal and non-fatal disease in smokers and never-smokers.
This research can be used to understand factors that influence adult lung function, and will guide policies for prevention of both respiratory and non-respiratory mortality. This project requires data on all participants on spirometry, smoking and other lifestyle factors, arterial stiffness, hand grip strength, bone densitometry, anthropometry, cognitive function tests and hearing test. A second phase of this project will require follow-up data on mortality and morbidity records. N/A N/A
