Abstract excerpt
Ambient air pollution contributes to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but the genetic factors that may influence susceptibility remain poorly defined. We conducted a genome-wide interaction analysis to identify genetic markers that may modify the association between air pollution and COPD. We analyzed data from 16,839 Canadian Longitudinal Study of Aging participants, including spirometry,...
