There is sparse evidence in the literature relation to chest computed tomography (CT) findings among adult Indigenous Australians with chronic respiratory conditions.In this retrospective study, patients who underwent CT between 2012 and 2020 those referred undergo lung function tests (spirometry) were assessed for prevalence of abnormal radiological findings.Of 402 (59% female) included 331 (82%) had an abnormality identified on CT. Most abnormalities occurred alongside one (25%) or...
Background: There is sparse literature evidence evaluating the applicability of GLI-2012 spirometric norms for Australian Aboriginal adults.Methods: Lung function parameters (LFPs) were compared between and Caucasians, fit Aboriginals LFPs with various ethnic GLI equations was tested.Results: Of 1350 5634 Pulmonary tests (PFTs) in Caucasian adults, 153 208 PFTs matched anthropometrics normal chest radiology, respectively. Absolute FVC FEV1 values 20% lower to Caucasians. Differences remained...
Studies assessing normative values and sex differences in pulmonary function test parameters (PFTPs) among Indigenous populations are sparse.
Background: There is sparse literature evidence in the spirometric patterns of adult Indigenous Australians with and without chest computed tomography (CT)-proven chronic airway diseases (CADs).Methods: Participants spirometry testing graded as acceptable for quality had a CT scan showing radiographic CADs were included analysis.Results: Of 1350 tests performed between 2012 2020, total 212 patients mean age 53 years 54% females eligible to be included. One-third (30%) normal (without CADs),...
There is limited evidence in the literature illustrating chest computed tomography (CT) characteristics among adult Aboriginal Australians with bronchiectasis. This retrospective study evaluates radiological of bronchiectasis residing Top End, Northern Territory Australia.
Atraumatic splenic rupture is uncommon but it a life threatening condition because of hypovolemic shock. Early recognition and treatment are the keys to asuccessful outcome. We report case atraumatic secondary chronic pancreatitis treated successfully by artery embolization.
