§ Values are expressed in % predicted, with the exception of FEV1/FVC% and FEV1/VC% which are expressed in % observed
- *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01, * p < 0.05, # 0.05 < p < 0.1 (borderline) by analyses of variance; comparison between subjects living at different distances from the main road, separately in males and in females
- For all parameters mean values are adjusted for the effects of age and smoking habits, with the exception of the bronchial reactivity parameter where mean values are adjusted for age, smoking habits and predicted %FEV1
