Fig. 4. Stature-adjusted mean lung function in 203 male (M) and 166 female (F) Aymara for the darkest and lightest skin reflectance tercile categories. An asterisk denotes a significant difference between categories (P<0.01). TLC, total lung capacity; VC, vital capacity; FEV, forced expiratory volume; RV, residual volume; IC, inspiratory capacity; ERV, expiratory reserve volume. The figure is based on data presented by Greksa (Greksa, 1996).
