Abstract (2. Language): 
Objective: Evaluation of pulmonary function of female patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with or wlthout pathological findings and comparision made according to high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) were also included to the study. Methods: Total 51 volunteers thirty-two female RA patients and 19 control subjects ali ranged from 16 to 66 years ofage were studied. Ali patients and subjects first performed pulmonary function test (PFT). Chest x-ray fiims, HRCT of lung were obtained tor both patients and controls. Results: Patients with RA were divided into two groups: the ones who had pathologic findings on their lung according to HRCT, and the ones who had not. PFT values of both groups were compaired with controls. FVC, FEVp FEF:25-75% ar)d ^^75-85% values were significantly different in patients with pathologic findings as compared with the ones who had no pathologic findings (p<0.05). There were no significant difference between the patients with no pathologic findings and the controls. Conclusion: Follovving the HRCT inspection of RA patients some changes of PFT were observed in RA patients with some pathological findings on their lungs. İt has been concluded that PFT should give as useful criteria as HRCT

Abstract (Original Language): 
Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Yüksek Rezolüsyonlu Bilgisayarlı Tomografi (YRBT) değerlendirmesine göre patolojik akciğer bulguları olan ve olmayan Romatoid Artrit (RA)'li kadın hastaların solunum fonksiyonları karşılaştırılarak YRBT ve solunum fonksiyon test sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Yöntem: Çalışmaya yaşları 16-66 arasında değişen 32 kadın RA'li hasta ve 19 kontrol olmak üzere toplam 51 gönüllü katıldı. Katılanlara önce so¬lunum fonksiyon testleri (SFT) yapıldı. Akciğer YRBT'leri çekildi. Bulgular: YRBT'de patolojik görüntü olup olma¬masına göre RA'li hastaların SFT'leri kontrollerle karşılaştırıldı. Patolojik görüntüsü olan hastalar olmayanlarla kıyaslandığında FVC, FEV1, FEFo^^.j^, FEF%$Q, FEFO^J^Ş değerlerinde anlamlı farklılık görülürken (p<0.05), patolojik görüntüsü olmayan hastalar, kontrollerle karşılaştırıldığında anlamlı değişiklik olmadığı görüldü. Sonuç: RA 'li kadın hastaların YRBT inceleme sonucunda, akciğerlerinde patolojik görüntüsü olan RA 'li hastaların SFT'de de bozukluklar görüldü. SFT'nin de YRBT tetkiki gibi değerli sonuçlar verebileceği kanaatine varıldı.
