The purpose of the present study was to assess lung related variables for the students of Rajshahi University. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on 862 students (578 males and 284 females) who were selected through stratified random sampling technique from the University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh. The variables in relation to lung [e.g., vital capacity (VC), tidal volume (TV), inspiratory reserve volume (IRV), expiratory reserve volume (ERV), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), forced expiratory volume in one second as percentage (FEV1%), Maximum Mid-expiratory Flow (MMF), Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR), Forced Expiratory Flow at 25 Percentage (FEF25%), Forced Expiratory Flow at 50 Percentage (FEF50%), Forced Expiratory Flow at 75 Percentage (FEF75%), Maximal Voluntary Ventilation (MVV) as well as Respiration Rate (RR)] were measured accordingly and analyzed using the software IBM SPSS Statistics 20. Results: Descriptive statistics of all the lung related variables were less in magnitude compared to other countries. Significant gender differences have found in VC,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
