Forced vital capacity (FVC) and one second forced expiratory volume (FEV1) were measured in 245 healthy Nigerian Ibo males aged 12-23 years. Analysis showed strong correlation between anthropometric factors (age, height, weight) and spirometric measurements (r----0.808-0.994). In the young adult group (18-23 years), FEV1 did not correlate so strongly with weight, however (r----0.654). Prediction equations, based on age and height have been developed for use among male Ibo adolescents and young adults.
