In a study of early-life risk factors for the development of adult obstructive airway disease, respiratory symptoms, disease and smoking histories, and spirometry were obtained for 650 children and their families in East Boston, Massachusetts, the mother's current smoking status and current persistent wheeze were significant predictors of the children's mean FEF-Z score.

129 Citations1977R. S. F. Schilling, Anthony Letai +4 more
There was a highly significant association between the prevalence of wheeze in parents and their younger children, for whom parents reported this symptom, and the contribution of familial factors to children's lung function is small compared to the effects of height, weight and age.

125 Citations1983Marc B. Schenker, Jonathan M. Samet +1 more
It is postulate that fathers underreport symptoms for their children, and a positive parental history of allergy or respiratory illness was an independent predictor of respiratory symptoms and illnesses in the children.

Differences tended to be larger and more often significant for males than for females when respiratory symptoms and illnesses were examined and the level of lung function was generally lower for males from households where only mothers smoked compared with males from Household where only fathers smoked, although sample size was limited.

A predominant large airway response in smokers and a prominent small airways response in nonsmokers is suggested, which may reflect differences in the predominant site of aerosol deposition rather than in airway reactivity.
