Abstract :
In order to discover the relationship between the volume and the function of the lung in the young normal people who are living for a long time in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau(QTP) with relatively hypoxic environment, a regress model is proposed through multivariate statistical analysis in the paper, which is by obtaining the data that through multi-row detector spiral computer tomograph(MDSCT) and pulmonary function test(PFT) from 51 young volunteers who are long-term living in the QTP. The numerical results are listed which are showed the model is correct and effective.
