Bronchial Responsiveness Is Related to Increased Exhaled NO (FE(NO)) in Non-Smokers and Decreased FE(NO) in Smokers

RATIONALE: Both atopy and smoking are known to be associated with increased bronchial responsiveness. Fraction of nitric oxide (NO) in the exhaled air (FE(NO)), a marker of airways inflammation, is decreased by smoking and increased by atopy.
