Popis: | Pulmonary complications of obesity have been extensively investigated in adults. However, few studies have evaluated the pulmonary function in obese children. The aim of this study was to perform a pulmonary function test in 29 obese children (15 females, 14 males; median age 11 yr.; BMI > percentil 95; weight for height ≥ 140) without respiratory complaints. |
