Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Childhood asthma prevalence and morbidity varies among Latinos in the United States, with Puerto Ricans having the highest and Mexicans the lowest. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether genetic ancestry is associated with the odds of asthma among Latinos, and secondarily whether genetic ancestry is associated with lung function among Latino children. METHODS: We analyzed 5493 Latinos with and without asthma...
