BACKGROUND: Different formulas have been proposed to exclude restriction based on spirometry, however none of them have specifically tested the patients whose spirometry show both obstruction and a low forced vital capacity (FVC). STUDY OBJECTIVE: The study was designed to create an algorithm that w...
