                | Makale Özeti: | The present investigation is a comparative 
study of pulmonary function variables mainly 
Force Vital Capacity, Forced expiratory 
Volume in 1 sec and Peak Expiratory Flow rate 
of Male Rajput population of high and low 
altitude areas of Himachal Pradesh. The total 
subjects taken for the study were healthy 400, 
out of which 200 were taken from high altitude 
(>2200 m) and 200 were taken from low 
altitude (<300m). The subjects were divided 
into four groups of 5 years interval. The 
variables were measured with the help of 
calibrated computerized spirometer named 
Spiro Excel manufactured by Medicaid 
Systems, Chandigarh. The results indicate that 
there exist significantly higher values of FEV1 
( forced expiration volume in 1 sec)  in high 
altitude population of the age 20-25, 26-30 & 
31-35 in comparison to corresponding age peer 
groups of  low altitude. The Force Vital 
Capacity is found to be highly significantly 
greater in the age group of 36-40 years in 
comparison to rest of the age groups. The peak 
expiratory flow rate is  found to be significant 
higher in the age group of 20-25, 31-35, 36-40 
and not in 26-30 age group of residents of high 
altitude. Quite surprisingly  Rajputs of 36-30 
age group of low altitude have more PEFR than 
Rajput residents of high altitude. The results of 
pulmonary variables are discussed at length in 
the paper. |
