Journal ArticleDOI

Relationships of active smoking to asthma and asthma severity in the EGEA study. Epidemiological study on the Genetics and Environment of Asthma.

TL;DR: It is concluded that active smoking is not a risk factor for asthma in adulthood, but that smoking increases asthma severity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of 17q21 variants and smoking exposure in early-onset asthma.

TL;DR: This study shows that the increased risk of asthma conferred by 17q21 genetic variants is restricted to early-onset asthma and that the risk is further increased by early-life exposure to environmental tobacco smoke.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiancestry association study identifies new asthma risk loci that colocalize with immune-cell enhancer marks

- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of GWAS studies for asthma from multiancestral cohorts identifies five new loci and finds that the asthma-associated loci are enriched near enhancer marks in immune cells, suggesting a major role of these loci in the regulation of immunologically related mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adult lung function and long-term air pollution exposure. ESCAPE: a multicentre cohort study and meta-analysis

TL;DR: It is observed that a 10 μg·m−3 increase in NO2 exposure was associated with lower levels of FEV1, and this study adds to the evidence for an adverse association of ambient air pollution with lung function in adults at very low levels in Europe.
