Background: Chronic consumption of khat affects many organ systems and leads to various health disturbances in the chewers. Few studies examined the acute effects of khat ingestion on lung function parameters. However, studies which assessed the long-term effects of khat chewing on pulmonary function parameters and oxygen saturation are lacking. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the impact of chronic Khat chewing on pulmonary function parameters and oxygen saturation among chronic Khat chewers in Wolkite, Ethiopia. Methods: A community-based comparative cross-sectional study was conducted in Wolkite, Ethiopia from 1 June 2018 to 15 August 2018. A total of 324 participants, 162 khat chewers and 162 non-chewers were included in the study. The data were collected through face-to-face interview by trained data collectors. British Medical Research Council respiratory questionnaire was used to assess respiratory symptoms. A spirometer was used to assess various lung function parameters. Moreover, oxygen saturation of hemoglobin was measured using pulse oximeter. Data were entered into CSPro version 6.2 and analyzed using SPSS version 23. Results: This study showed statistically significant (p < 0.05) reduction in the mean values of forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in first second and maximum ventilation volume among khat chewers as compared to non-chewers. There was no significant difference in the mean values of other lung function parameters between the two groups. Similarly, there was no significant difference (p = 0.642) in mean oxygen saturation of hemoglobin (SaO2) across the two groups. Conclusion: It is evident from this study that long-term khat consumption is associated with decreased mean forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in first second and maximum ventilation volume. Hence, there is a need for further study to strengthen the current findings and to explore the mechanisms of khat chewing effect on lung function parameters.

Abstract Introduction Patients with severe restrictive ventilatory defect (RVD) have hypoxemia and a high risk of pulmonary hypertension (PHTN). Sleep apnea (SA) aggravates the severity of nocturnal desaturation significantly. The aim of this study was to investigate the severity of hypoxemia and prevalence of PHTN in patient with the overlap syndrome (OS) of RVD and SA. Methods Patients referred for both sleep test and spirometry for suspected SA and RVD or obstructive ventilatory defect (OVD) were recruited prospectively from January-December, 2018. SA was determined by an apnea-hypopnea index ≥5/h; mean nocturnal oxygen saturation (meanSaO2), minimum oxygen saturation (minSaO2), saturation lower than 90% (T90) were calculated automatically. RVD was diagnosed in the presence of forced expiratory volume in the first second/forced vital capacity (FVC) &gt;0.7 and FVC&lt;80% predicted value. PHTN was defined by systolic pulmonary arterial pressure (SPAP) ≥ 50mmHg, documented by noninvasive transthoracic echocardiography. Patients with PHTN secondary to extrapulmonary factors were excluded. Results Of 65 patients who completed the investigation, 16 (24.6%) subjects were diagnosed with isolated SA (without RVD or OVD), and 28 (43.1%) subjects were verified to have RVD, in which 22 (78.6%) were diagnosed with OS and 6 (21.4%) presented as isolated RVD. Patients with OS vs. those with isolated RVD had lower minSaO2 (78.3% vs. 88.7%, p=0.003) and meanSaO2 (91.5% vs. 95.8%, p=0.007) but higher T90 (37.2% vs. 0.3%, p=0.009). Patients with OS vs. those with isolated RVD or with isolated SA had higher SPAP (62.6 mmHg vs. 45.3 mmHg or 35.9 mmHg, p=0.334 or p=0.016 respectively). Higher proportion of patients with OS were diagnosed with PHTN than those with isolated RVD or isolated SA (8 [36.4%] vs. 1 [16%] or 1 [6.25%], p=0.360 or p=0.031, respectively). T90 was the only polysomnographic data associated with the prevalence of PHTN after adjusting for age and sex (OR 4.90, 95% CI 1.23-25.56, p=0.023). Conclusion Patients with the OS of RVD and SA had high odds of PHTN, which is probably associated with severe hypoxemia. Further investigation is needed to discern whether therapeutic strategies toward OS might eliminate PHTN in this cohort. Support

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of chute-side diagnostic methods for detecting physiological and pathological changes as indicators of early bovine respiratory disease (BRD) in calves experimentally inoculated with infectious bovine rhinotracheitis virus (IBR) and Mannheimia haemolytica (Mh). A challenge study was performed over 14 d in 30 Holstein steers [average weight (±SEM) = 211 kilograms (kg) ± 2.4 kg] inoculated on day 0 with IBR and on day 6 with Mh. Diagnostic methods included clinical illness scores (CIS), lung auscultation using a computer-aided stethoscope (CAS), rectal temperature, facial thermography, pulse oximetry, and bilateral thoracic ultrasonography. Animals were randomized into 1 of 5 necropsy days (days 6, 7, 9, 11, and 13) when the percentage of lung consolidation was estimated. The effect of study day on the results of the diagnostic methods and associations between each diagnostic method’s values with lung consolidation measured at necropsy were determined with mixed models. Values for all diagnostic methods differed significantly (P &lt; 0.01) by day. During the IBR phase (days 0 to 6) calves had “normal” to “moderate” CIS, whereas during the Mh phase (days 6.5 to 13) scores were predominantly “severe” to “moribund.” Similarly, CAS scores were “normal” and “mild acute” during the IBR phase and “mild acute” to “moderate acute” after the Mh challenge. Oxygen saturation did not differ significantly between days 0, 1, 2, 4, and 6; however, significantly decreased 12 h after inoculation with Mh (P &lt; 0.05). Mean lung consolidation between animal’s right and left side recorded by ultrasound was 0.13% (±0.07) before the inoculation with Mh. However, during the Mh phase, mean consolidation increased significantly over time (P &lt; 0.05). The percentage of lung consolidation at necropsy ranged from 1.7% (±0.82) on day 6 to 55.4% (±7.49) on day 10. Clinical illness scores, rectal temperature, facial thermography, oxygen saturation, and ultrasonography were significantly associated (P &lt; 0.05) with lung consolidation at necropsy. In addition, there was a significant trend (P = 0.07) between CAS and lung consolidation scores at necropsy. These chute-side diagnostic methods are useful for detecting disease progression on animals with early stages of BRD.

AbstractTo explore the effectiveness of microgravity simulated by head-down bed rest (HDBR) and artificial gravity (AG) with exercise on lung function. Twenty-four volunteers were randomly divided into control and exercise countermeasure (CM) groups for 96 h of 6° HDBR. Comparisons of pulse rate, pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) and lung function were made between these two groups at 0, 24, 48, 72, 96 h. Compared with the sitting position, inspiratory capacity and respiratory reserve volume were significantly higher than before HDBR (0° position) (P&lt; 0.05). Vital capacity, expiratory reserve volume, forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in 1 s, forced inspiratory vital capacity, forced inspiratory volume in 1 s, forced expiratory flow at 25, 50 and 75%, maximal mid-expiratory flow and peak expiratory flow were all significantly lower than those before HDBR (P&lt; 0.05). Neither control nor CM groups showed significant differences in the pulse rate, SpO2, pulmonary volume and pulmonary ventilation function over the HDBR observation time. Postural changes can lead to variation in lung volume and ventilation function, but a HDBR model induced no changes in pulmonary function and therefore should not be used to study AG CMs.

Purpose The purpose of this preliminary study was to identify a vocal task that could be used as a clinical indicator of the vocal aptitude or vocal fitness required for vocally demanding occupations in a manner similar to that of the anaerobic power tests commonly used in exercise science. Performance outcomes for vocal tasks that require rapid acceleration and high force production may be useful as an indirect indicator of muscle fiber complement and bioenergetic fitness of the larynx, an organ that is difficult to study directly. Method Sixteen women (age range: 19–24 years, M age = 22 years) were consented for participation and completed the following performance measures: forced vital capacity, three adapted vocal function tasks, and the horizontal sprint test. Results Using a within-participant correlational analyses, results indicated a positive relationship between the rate of the last second of a laryngeal diadochokinesis task that was produced at a high fundamental frequency/high sound level and anaerobic power. Forced vital capacity was not correlated with any of the vocal function tasks. Conclusions These preliminary results indicate that aspects of the laryngeal diadochokinesis task produced at a high fundamental frequency and high sound level may be useful as an ecologically valid measure of vocal power ability. Quantification of vocal power ability may be useful as a vocal fitness assessment or as an outcome measure for voice rehabilitation and habilitation for patients with vocally demanding jobs.
