Spirometry and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) reference values for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians

肺病是造成土著和非土著澳大利亚人之间健康差距的主要原因之一。对于肺部疾病的早期诊断和良好管理，需要简单的检测，如肺活量测定法。我的研究旨在为这一人群提供缺乏的健康参考价值。我的研究结果将提高测试解释的准确性，有助于诊断和临床护理，并降低澳大利亚土著居民肺病的发病率。

Lung diseases are one of the leading contributors to the health gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. Simple tests, such as spirometry, are needed for early diagnosis and good management of lung diseases. My study aims to develop healthy reference values which are lacking for this population. Results from my study will improve the accuracy of test interpretation, aid in diagnosis and clinical care, and reduce morbidity of lung disease for Indigenous Australians.
