Table 5 Associations (Β) between peak expiratory flow (PEF) in the morning and evening (PEFmo and PEFev) and exposure to pollen (per 100 grains) and air pollutants in single-, pairwise-, and multi-exposure models with 95% confidence interval (pooled results). Significant results are indicated with bold font
