| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS tBR0xDXF. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives : The authors assessed the effects of environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) on the development of asthma in adults. Methods : In the Pirkanmaa district of South Finland, all 21-to 63-year-old adults with new cases of asthma diagnosed during a 2.5-year period (n=521 case patients, out of 441000 inhabitants) and a random sample of control subjects from the source population (932 control subjects) participated in a population-based incident case-control study. Results : Risk of asthma was related to workplace ETS exposure (adjusted odds ratio [OR]=2.16 ; 95% confidence interval [Cl]=1.26,3.72) and home exposure (OR=4.77 ; 95% Cl=1.29,17.7) in the past year. Cumulative ETS exposure over a lifetime at work and at home increased the risk. Conclusions : This study indicates for the first time that both cumulative lifetime and recent ETS exposures increase the risk of adult-onset asthma. |
