An East Asian–specific variant on aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2 rs671, G> A) is the
major genetic determinant of alcohol consumption. We performed an rs671 genotype …

The nitric oxide (NO) pathway contributes to the pathogeneses of metabolic syndrome
(MetS) and asthma. NOS2 encodes inducible-NO synthase, which is an important enzyme of …

Nitric oxide has different roles in asthma as both an endogenous modulator of airway
function and a pro-inflammatory mediator. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) is a …

Background Measurement of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (F eno) has been used in the
diagnosis and management of asthma. Understanding the distribution of F eno in a larger …

Background: Although several studies have shown an inverse association between lung
function and hypertension, few studies have examined the association between lung …

Background Parental allergic diseases and smoking influence respiratory disease in the
offspring but it is not known whether they influence fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) in …

Background Birth weight, as a measure of intrauterine growth, is commonly used in
