Nitrogen Dioxide Exposure in School Classrooms Is Associated with Airflow Obstruction in Students with Asthma

After adjusting for race and season (spirometry reference values standardized by age, height and gender), NO2 was highly associated with increased airflow obstruction such that each 10ppb rise in NO2 exposure was associated with a 3% decline in FEV1/FVC (β: -0.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) [-0.0...

Zusammenfassung:After adjusting for race and season (spirometry reference values standardized by age, height and gender), NO2 was highly associated with increased airflow obstruction such that each 10ppb rise in NO2 exposure was associated with a 3% decline in FEV1/FVC (β: -0.03, 95% confidence interval (CI) [-0.05, -0.00], p=0.03).
