Ethnic differences in the growth of lung function in children
Measurements of ventilatory capacity have been made in 664 healthy school-children (ages 5-16 years) of European, Afrocaribbean and Indian stock living in the same environment in inner-city Nottingham: 100%, 95% and 80% of these three groups respectively had been born in the UK. The ventilatory capacity data have been analyzed by logarithmic regressions on stature. For forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume (FEV1) a large differ…
Thoracic and lumbar spinal curvatures in Nigerian adults
The thoracic and lumbar curvatures of 105 Nigerian adults have been measured with a flexible rule (flexicurve). The lumbar curvature is relatively greater in women. Compared with a previous survey of Europeans, the curvatures in both men and women appear to be about 20 per cent greater in Nigerians. This is likely to be a genetic difference but the Nigerian practice of carrying heavy loads on the head may be a contributory factor
