Introduction: The present research evaluates driving impairment linked to divided attention task and alcohol and determines whether it is higher for novice drivers than for experienced drivers.
Method: Novice and experienced drivers participated in three experimental sessions in which blood alcohol concentrations (BACs) were 0.0 g/L, 0.

Article Synopsis
- Alcohol is a major factor in fatal car accidents, but the specific ways it affects driving behaviors are not fully understood.
- The study aimed to investigate how different levels of blood alcohol concentration interact with the complexity of driving scenarios to impact driver performance.
- Results showed that alcohol significantly impaired performance in automated driving tasks more than in controlled driving conditions.

A simplified preoperative respiratory assessment was carried out in order to assess the reliability of a pocket-sized spirometer. 30 patients were each tested using two methods: 1) the traditional extensive laboratory lung function tests and 2) a bedside test using a pocket-sized spirometer, which measured the vital capacity (VC), the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), the peak flow (PEF) and the ratio of FEV1 to VC. The correlation between the two series of VC and FEV1 measurements was highly significant (p less than 0.
