Abstract

Ventilatory response to carbon dioxide was measured by the rebreathing technique in 32 Nigerians and 20 Europeans resident in Lagos. Although the Europeans had larger physical characteristics and lung volumes than Nigerians, the responses to carbon dioxide were similar. The range of ventilatory response was 0,55 to 4,2 and 0,7 to 3,7 1/min/mm Hg for Nigerians and Europeans respectively. These results show that Nigerians are as sensitive to carbon dioxide as their European counterparts.

健康的尼日利亚人和欧洲人对二氧化碳的呼吸反应。
利用再呼吸技术测量了32名尼日利亚人和20名居住在拉各斯的欧洲人对二氧化碳的呼吸反应。尽管欧洲人的身体特征和肺活量都比尼日利亚人大,但他们对二氧化碳的反应是相似的。尼日利亚人和欧洲人的通气反应范围分别为0,55 ~ 4,2和0,7 ~ 3,71 /min/mm Hg。这些结果表明,尼日利亚人和欧洲人一样对二氧化碳敏感。
