Small airway function measured using forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of vital capacity and its relationship to airflow limitation in symptomatic ever-smokers: a cross-sectional study
BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is diagnosed and its severity graded by traditional spirometric parameters (forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV(1))/forced vital capacity (FVC) and FEV(1), respectively) but these parameters are considered insensitive for identifying early pa...
