Heritability of ventilatory function in smoking and nonsmoking New Mexico Hispanics.

The American review of respiratory disease - 1 Oct 1991

Abstract excerpt

Familial aggregation of ventilatory function has been described in several populations, but the effects of age and cigarette smoking on the extent of aggregation have not been well characterized. We used data from a survey of a Hispanic population in New Mexico to obtain estimates of heritability for FVC and FEV1 as percentages of predicted value. Product-moment correlations for FVC of spouse pairs were 0.18 (n =...
