Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: A study was performed to determine whether Pi heterozygotes exposed to smoking have a higher risk of reduced lung function than Pi M homozygotes. METHODS: The effect of passive smoking on lung function was investigated in a cross sectional study of 997 primary and secondary schoolchildren aged 11-13 years categorised by Pi phenotype as either PiM homozygotes or Pi heterozygotes. Data on respiratory...
