A Race-neutral Approach to the Interpretation of Lung Function Measurements

Cole Bowerman et al.

Summary: This study aims to develop a race-neutral reference equation for interpreting lung function measurements. By reanalyzing the NHANES III data and GLI data, it was found that incorporating sitting height and Cormic index slightly improved the statistical precision of the reference equations but did not explain the differences in lung function between racial and ethnic groups. Therefore, the use of GLI global equations can better reflect the variations in lung function among different populations.

Summary: This study found no evidence that race/ethnicity-based spirometry reference equations improved the prediction of CLRD events and mortality compared with race/ethnicity-neutral equations. The inclusion of race/ethnicity in spirometry reference equations should be reconsidered.

Adverse early-life environmental exposures and their repercussions on adult respiratory health

Helena Teresinha Mocelin et al.

Summary: This review examines the impact of early life environmental problems on adult respiratory health. The authors discuss the exposure pathways and effects on child development, as well as the main environmental pollutants such as tobacco smoke, particulate matter, air pollution from traffic, adverse childhood experiences, and socioeconomic status. They present studies that demonstrate the increased incidence of respiratory diseases in adults, including COPD, asthma, allergies, and decreased lung function, due to exposure to adverse environmental factors during childhood. The authors emphasize the importance of health professionals knowing, diagnosing, monitoring, and preventing toxic exposure in children and women. Ultimately, they conclude that recognizing and intervening in vulnerable periods can prevent or delay the onset of lung disease throughout life.

Changes in lung function in European adults born between 1884 and 1996 and implications for the diagnosis of lung disease: a cross-sectional analysis of ten population-based studies

James P. Allinson et al.

Summary: Socioeconomic and scientific advances have led to improvements in lung function among European populations, which may impact the interpretation of lung function measurements and the diagnosis of lung diseases. Analysis of cross-sectional data from ten European population-based studies revealed an increase in FEV1 and FVC values over the past century, while the FEV1/FVC ratio decreased.

Addressing Race in Pulmonary Function Testing by Aligning Intent and Evidence With Practice and Perception

Nirav R. Bhakta et al.

Summary: The practice of using race or ethnicity in medicine to explain differences between individuals is being questioned due to its potential contribution to biased medical care, research, and perpetuation of health disparities and structural racism. This article focuses on the interpretation of pulmonary function test (PFT) results and highlights the need to examine the perspectives of practicing pulmonologists and physiologists. It discusses the limitations of current PFT measurement and interpretation practices and proposes changes in interpretation strategies and future research to address health disparities.

Comparing Racial Differences in Emphysema Prevalence Among Adults With Normal Spirometry: A Secondary Data Analysis of the CARDIA Lung Study

Research race-specific reference values and lung function impairment, breathlessness and prognosis: Analysis of NHANES 2007-2012

Magnus Ekstrom et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of race-specific reference values on the prevalence of lung function impairment and its relation to breathlessness and mortality. The findings suggest that using race-specific spirometry references did not improve the prediction of breathlessness and prognosis compared to using a common reference, potentially misclassifying lung function as normal despite worse outcomes in black people.

The applicability of the global lung initiative equations and other regional equations on a sample of healthy Middle Eastern adolescents

Summary: This study evaluated the suitability of GLI-2012 equations and regional equations for Jordanian adolescents, revealing differences in pulmonary function performance between boys and girls using GLI-2012 and Other equations. Formulating spirometry reference equations for Jordanian adolescents may improve the diagnosis and treatment of asthma in the region.

Summary: The study found that Australian Aboriginal adults have lower lung function parameters compared to Australian Caucasians, even after adjustments in multivariate regression. The GLI-2012 spirometric norms do not appear to fit well for Australian Aboriginal adults.

Reduction n TLCO and survival in a clinical population

Martin Raymond Miller et al.

Summary: The study explored the best way to express T-LCO function in relation to survival using clinical data from 13,829 patients, finding the need for ethnicity-appropriate equations and a new four-tier z-score grading system. This new grading system showed better separation of risk with increasing severity, providing a more accurate prediction of survival outcomes.

PM2.5 polluters disproportionately and systemically affect people of color in the United States

Christopher W. Tessum et al.

Summary: In the United States, racial-ethnic minorities are disproportionately exposed to high levels of ambient fine particulate air pollution (PM2.5), with nearly all major emission categories contributing to the systemic PM2.5 exposure disparity experienced by people of color. By identifying the most inequitable emission source types by state and city, potential opportunities for addressing this persistent environmental inequity are highlighted.

Summary: This study found that lower FVC in Black individuals is associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality, challenging the standard assumption about race-based normal limits. The Black-White disparities in FVC may be attributed to social/environmental factors rather than innate differences.
