Pulmonary function analysis in 20 patients with juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus showed no significant differences in lung recoil or other parameters compared to 20 matched controls.
Case-Control (n=40)
Abstract Detailed pulmonary function analysis was performed in 20 patients with juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus and in 20 age- and sex-matched control subjects. No significant differences were found in comparisons of all lung function data obtained from these two groups. Even the parameters of lung recoil, which recently have been reported to be decreased in juvenile-onset diabetes, were within the normal range. These data indicate normal pulmonary function in patients with juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus, a finding that is in accordance with clinical experience.
Schernthaner et al. (Thu,) conducted a case-control in Juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus (n=40). Juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus vs. Age- and sex-matched control subjects was evaluated on Pulmonary function and lung recoil parameters. Pulmonary function analysis in 20 patients with juvenile-onset diabetes mellitus showed no significant differences in lung recoil or other parameters compared to 20 matched controls.
