WHERE THE WORK WAS DONE &WHERE THE WORK WAS DONE &WHY?WHY?
The present work Vehicular Pollution and Respiratory Health
Status of the inhabitants of Kolkata was done in a phasedmanner in the months of Feb-March 2009 in North, Central andSouth Kolkata with the following Aims and Objectives-
To evaluate pulmonary function status of the inhabitants ofKolkata.
To assess the PFT according to their age, duration of stay andsmoking habit.
To evaluate the respiratory function impairments amongst theinhabitants as a whole.
To evaluate the respiratory function impairment amongst theinhabitants according to their duration of stay in their area.
Comparative analyses of the lung function of North, Central and
South Kolkata inhabitants.

Materials and MethodsMaterials and Methods Pulmonary function tests were carried on 113 individuals within the age
range of 21-50 among both males and females.
Histories taken by questionnaire asking.
Height & Weight was measured by using Stadiometer.
Pulmonary function measured by Spirovit-SP-10 and Wrights peak flow
meter.
SVC, FVC, & PEFR were recorded in standing posture with a nose clip.
FEV1, FEV1% , FEF25-75% , FEF.2-1.2l , FEF25-75% , were calculated from the sameFVC tracings.

Formulae Used:BMI = Weight in Kg / (Height in Metre)2
BSA = (Height in cm)0.725 * (Weight in Kg)0.425 * 71.84 / 10000
Criteria for Determination of Obstructive Type Impairment:Obstructive Type Impairment is determined with respect to the FEV1% value.

Observations-Observations-
The SVC, FEF25-75 % and FEF75-85 % values of Central Kolkata malepopulation has been found to be statistically lower than SouthKolkata males.
The SVC, FVC and FEV1 values of Central Kolkata female
inhabitants have been found to be statistically lower as comparedto North Kolkata females.
The PEFR value of North Kolkata female population has also beenfound to be significantly higher than South Kolkata females.
In general the lung volume and flow rates of South Kolkatapopulation have been observed to be better than North Kolkataand the values of Central Kolkata population have been found tobe the least.

Respiratory ImpairmentsRespiratory Impairments Obstructive diseasecharacterized by an increase in resistance to
airflow owing to partial or completes obstruction at any level, fromthe trachea and larger bronchi to the terminal and respiratorybronchioles also may be due to mucous occurrence in the trachea.
Restrictive diseasecharacterized by reduced expansion of lung
parenchyma, with decreased total lung capacity.
Each type of impairments was found less among female subjects.
Among the total 113 subjects analysed 8.85% of the subjects weredetected to be with pulmonary impairments.
The highest impairment have been noticed among the CentralKolkata inhabitants with 11.43% followed by North Kolkata(10.81%) and South Kolkata (8.85%)
Obstructive Impairments were detected more than the restrictiveor combined type.
