Importance of Genetic Factors in Adolescent Asthma: A Population-based Twin-family Study

1 Apr 1998

Abstract excerpt

Gene-environment interactions and inheritance of asthma were studied in 16-yr-old twins and their parents who participated in the nationwide Finnish Twin Cohort Study. Between 1991 and 1994, questionnaires, including a question on physician-diagnosed asthma, were mailed to the members of 2,483 twin families. The individual response rate ranged from 82 to 93%. Information on parental asthma status allowed the...
