Abstract excerpt
Cigarette smoke exposure is a major risk factor in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its interactions with genetic variants could affect lung function. However, few gene-smoking interactions have been reported. In this report, we evaluated the effects of gene-smoking interactions on lung function using Korea Associated Resource (KARE) data with the spirometric variables-forced expiratory volume in...
